The 90's scene was not as good as gamers think, and the "samey" trend was just as disgusting back then as it is now.
Also, arcade game designs were far more evil than any microtransaction or pay to win scheme (and I say this as someone with fond memories of arcades).
sort of but you can also say it's moot even though arcade was difficult as fuck to eat coins, you could still beat it granted you were autistic enough, bullet hell arcades were money chompers but they are different than microtransactions because you didn't need to pay for superpowerbars and whatever, all you paid was for continues/lives.
With the whole MCU going on, not one fucking game studio could make anything like City of Heroes again. DC Universe Online fucking sucked day one and I never went back to it, because the LAST fucking person I want giving me shit is fucking Robin's gay tight wearing ass. Every other fucking super hero game was complete trash.
Then logging onto more MMO's, basic shit that CoX got down pat early on is STILL missing from the fucking games.
Every MMO that comes out is all "Ooooh, check this out!" then when you check it out, it's fucking underwhelming. Or paypig centered.
I don't know, maybe I'm getting too old to enjoy da vidya.
you are not getting old fagboy, it's the devs being safe, to make a MMORPG nowadays there's money to be made because using similar systems won't draw new players since it's pretty much a "set" market, the only way for a studio to make a thriving MMO is to make something that is better than a game, like get black desert, watch the issues, curb it and create a similar hook, one issue players have is the retarded casino rate shit koreans love so much. there is no game like black desert on the west and making a similar game that has failsafes to these retarded casino rates that you can fuck up royally if you aren't careful (grind until your balls fall off) is a safe way to steal players from BD in the west, make it with prettier butts customizable lingerie and you won't draw dedicated BD whales but you'll steal a good portion of their players...
no studio wants to do that shit because it's helluva expensive, that' why they go for the paypig with the underwhelming thing, check new meme and what amazon is doing with it.
Is that video worth watching? The level of soy expressed in that video is cringe inducing.
He can have his fag fantasies he wants. All i want are attractive and intressting female characters. Fuck the lesbian or the rat faced bitch.
they say it's a engine fault and frostbite goes for "realistic faces", but i recall some kiwi saying it was because her face template is fucked-up on DA-I, on
DA2 she is fairly decent for a tomboy, it's obvious it's sjw decisioning at work, Varric and Hawke had no appearance change even though "it's been a while" from DA2 to DAI.
still a unpopular opinion about video games is that it breeds faggotry. be it online or be it singleplayer, fags will exist and plague the game like some aggressive cancer, SP we have the die hard-hardcore fags that usually will become speedrunners, on online we got competitivefags that will want a game to have tournament shit where the retard that repeats the same thing faster wins, and they will whine at any change no matter what because it fucks em up and it also fucks their chance of having their egos rubbed or in online case, money making chance. yet they will still play the game regardless because they are fags after all. considering my personal experience observing shit like dark souls and AVA-DOGTAG, you should never, ever, in no fucking way in hell, listen to these fuckers or you are bound to fail and fail HARD, they will sink you and think you are in the wrong still.
