VHS another asymmetric slasher game (free to play) - Surely, this one must be solid after so many failures? Spoilers: the balance sucks and the devs are faggots

So now when you go to the Steam page you can request access. No guarantee that you actually get access. This is how desperate the devs are getting and they're still going to see this problem of high queue times because they don't want to listen to the community.

You want to sell another chode before they go open beta?
 
I signed up day one with like four different emails and got nothing. I think they were only giving out a handful at random and the rest to streamers and discord fags.
I 100% would believe it, if that is what really happening. The amount of people streaming the game is way higher then you would think if these keys was going out randomly.

I just looked there something like 50+ people streaming.

Guess I need to get myself a furry avatar, and/or put "streamer" and or "Vtuber" in my name to get fellatio from the devs.


Edit: Also Pronouns and or the acronym salad known as LGBTQIA+

I forgot to mention it but i played one or two matches before i quit VHS.

The directional sound is really fucked i hear footsteps on top of me and below me, bloodstains are small asf and the whole stigma system is crap on the monster.

It really feels like tissue paper with how quickly you lose a stigma.

Sounds like you were using Werewolf who has the lowest health. So it's only logical that they nerf that killer...

Queue times are still sky high ranging from 10-20 minutes.

I was playing as W.A.R.T for the aura reading since the sounds are fucked.

"Guys, I played VHS and it sucks fucking dick and there's faggots on voice chat in every single match. Please god almighty I hope a meteorite falls on Quebec." @BrunoMattei

Joking aside I played a few games of both monsters and teens. God fucking damn I suck at this game. I suck far too much to say anything is bad or good balance wise as I still have a ton to learn.
The only thing I hate is healing mini game. Never was a fan of having to do shit like that in games, always felt more tedious and I was thankful when a teammate came around to help speed it up. Funny enough the few times I did hear people on voice chat they was really cool people. Never overstayed welcome on it, and generally very nice.

Oh and fuck queue times. First match I got into wait 10 minutes as a teen to even see anyone one else. wait another good 4-5 minutes for the rest. Get into the match. MATCH ENDS LITERAL SECONDS AFTER STARTING AS THE MONSTER CRASHED. :story:

I think I can wait a bit before playing again, for when ever the devs decide to open their cheeks and spew a hot load of keys onto the streamers faces again. Which they are doing.

Get this shit I saw some streamers with "key giveaway"(Or any variation of it) in the title, and got lucky enough to pop into one around the time someone asked the streamer. "How did you get the extra keys" and they said the devs gave it to them to giveaway to viewers.

I've seen the queue's go all the way up from 10, to 20 minutes and even an hour in some cases.

Was the streamer giving away keys a fur fag?
 
Alright, I finally got around to play a game. I thought I could already do this earlier, but the devs decided to wait 3 days before letting me in despite the fact that steam discussions say queue times are taking forever.

Anyways, here is my admittedly harsh criticism, because I am getting too old for this shit and this game made me realize that most games don't deserve my time the same way DBD took my life force away:
General observations:
- Tutorials suck, they are completely basic and maybe I am just blind or too stupid, but I see no way to just test a map or test a 4v1 with even the most basic of AI.
- As far as matchmaking is concerned, there is no matchmaking. Now I don't need SBMM or anything, but maybe putting the newbies against other newbies could be done. That's not a real criticism though, I know we are still playtesting etc.
- Sound is absolutely fucked. Random noises playing around the map, people below and above you sounding like they are right in front of you or behind you...? In a game where all players are trying to kill eachother, that is unacceptable. Plus, I am the retard that's stuck in first person, so throw me a bone and let me hear the goblins trying to kill me at least.
- The "blood" trails humans are leaving are retardedly unnoticeable while you are busy not getting swarmed by no-lifer crotch goblins. Also, forcing the monster to look up AND having pretty tight corners on every map AND the blood trails being that hard to see AND fucked audio is a match made in hell.

Positives...eh, idk man, I guess the artstyle is unique and the maps look alright? Basically a DBD situation, the art team is carrying everything.

And now, the grande finale, the negatives, OR as Bruno Matei would say, the general negatives of asym games:
- So, the monster, the POWER role, the lone wolf that cannot blame any team mates and has to play the best of his abilities or else he loses...is an absolute whimp, but somehow even less threatening than killers in DBD because survivors/humans can just point some deodorant and a lighter at you to completely shut you down for the next 20 seconds. Guys, I know balancing is hard and all, but what the fuck is going on here? My abilities get greyed out AND I am getting slowed AND I cannot even hit 'em? Did I fuck up? Is this really how the game is played? Which leads me to the next problem:
- You physically cannot even focus out the weak link like in DBD, because all their little butt-buddies will just wait around a corner or sneak up behind you to grill your ass whenever you try to get a free hit in. "B-b-b-but Kotol, you retard, you can armor up as WART and get close to 'em" Brilliant idea, voice in my head! But there is just the problem of cast time, sounds you make etc that will make any decent human just leave and hide for the next 12 seconds.
- Am I stupid, or is there no side-objective to be done as a monster? You see, I liked the way Evolve did it with the monster, the fucking ONLY game besides Friday the 13th that actually makes the monster feel like a power role. The monster had some stuff to do on the map to get an advantage over the hunters. If they were too slow you eventually got more and more powerful and even if they decided to be pussies, you could always just destroy a large pipeline or generator or whatever to win the game.
- yadda yadda, faggy shit, who even cares at this point if the game feels like massaging yourself with sand paper.

So, in conclusion, you do fucking you but I am not wasting my remaining brain cells to try and learn a game that will turn out to be completely survivor sided in a few months anyways. Gotta tell ya, it felt good to go in with a DSP mindset for once, I just played the tutorial, hopped into a game and didn't like it and uninstalled instantly. I didn't read a guide, I didn't bother to learn anything. All I know is that in the one fucking round I played, I felt helpless and retarded, retarded enough to realize I had gotten hyped for another asym game with some neat looking monsters that turned out to be a "4 guys can relax and have some laughs while the 1 other guy can eat shit" kinda game. Because THAT's what this WILL turn into once the no-lifers are the only people playing this garbage. The masochists play monsters while the normies get to enjoy some good ol' monster huntin'. I think I wouldn't be bothered quite as much if the survivors were actual monster hunters instead of wimpy faggots that still beat the shit out of you without breaking a sweat.

TL;DR: I literally played one game, felt like a retard and I can't be fucked to learn another one of these shitty excuses for "cumpetituhve" gameplay. Uninstalled, good riddance.

Maybe you should try playing it more?

I played two matches to your single one before i decided that the game is shit.
