They seem to not understand what made the good games good, and then when a game does do well, they try to milk it. The yearly releases are likely too much as well.
Black ops 3 was cool -> ruined with predatory micro transactions. anyone remember how they would pair you with people who had the items you were viewing in the loot box menu in an attempt to get you to purchase? And then the odds were stupidly low to actually get the items.
The modern warfare reboot was cool. But again they slowly ruined it entry after entry.
Black ops was kinda neat last year. Then they tried to milk it again.
Idk I’m kinda rambling here but if you’ve played most of the titles I think it makes sense as to why people aren’t always getting every one at this point
I usually avoid PvP games and I didn’t like ARC Raiders at first, but it has grown on me.
Unless you use the starter kit, you’ll always have at least one safe pocket slot, allowing you to bring back at least one item (or a stack) even if you get knocked out. Moreover, so often my stash is full even after multiple expansions, so the game encourages using those resources to craft weapons, which again makes it less of a problem if you get knocked out.
Later quests are not easily completed, but you can focus on completing the daily tasks for battle pass progression. There will be simple tasks like having to open containers or doing damage to the ARC robots, so you can just go out with the stater kit and do those, not worrying about losing your loot. With that mentality, at least sometimes (though often in my case playing solo), you’ll extract and get a lot of loot on top of your XP and tasks progression.
Valve taking on consoles would be incredible for the space as a whole, but also Linux. Other storefronts would finally have to properly support it too.
Holy shit, not a single word about the abusive (illegal?) layoffs and the union busting in this article. Not even in the other article linked in the first paragraph! Shame!
I suppose they wrote an article dedicated to the news at some point (?) but this should be repeated over and over, hammered to the point of damaging their image.
Arma is pretty cool… despite BI. DayZ has been (for me) a continual disappointment. I don’t have any particularly strong feelings about Dean Hall, but I don’t get the impression he knows what’s wrong with DayZ, or how to fix it.
Wanted to check the price on Steam and I am not sure what is going on but the New and Recommended thing below the giant banner for Silk Song had Silk Song in it but the price shown there was only $12.49 while the game’s actual store page says $19.99. 🤨
I guess they're hoping no one buying 2 has played the original or has much familiarity with the source material. Not the worst move from a marketing standpoint, but not really inspiring confidence for me since VtMB is probably one of my favourite linear/sandbox RPGs purely because of the atmosphere and dialog.
No, the combat in VtMB wasn't very good, but that doesn't mean the sequel has to be an ARPG. I really hope this is just one person's opinion and it's not that bad. Also, Phyre is a cringe name that hasn't grown on me at all, so that sucks considering she apparently fucking says it constantly.
It’s a good thing that I haven’t given Paradox money since Cities: Skylines was released (solid game, but the transportation system was lacking on release).
