@ParkerReidy You took nobody as literal when it was a clear hyperbole.
There’s no plenty. There’s literal data from 2012-2013 that shows that despite halo 4’s release. People didn’t go back to halo 3.
You make up shit in your head and expect people to take it as gospel
Don’t let these “Halo 3 had a million concurrent users for 2 years” fans tell you anything. COD dominated with lesser content or no map editor mode.
The industry left Halo for CoD the same way the industry left Quake/Unreal for Halo.
@ThelVanDamne Plenty of people went back to halo 3, in fact it remained alive until they shut down the servers in 2022. By your logic nobody went back to black ops 2 once the 30th game after it came out
@ThelVanDamne@DangervilleTeam@Arcamico You know it’s not a good look to jump to assumptions. Golden eye was my first fps, halo was the one that actually hooked me, I’ve also played the first 3 CODs in Xbox.
@ThelVanDamne That is objectively not true but ok, you’ve demonstrated in this entire comment thread that your just stubborn and don’t want to listen to anyone who isn’t agreeing with you
@ThelVanDamne It means everything, there’s a reason why people love the Bungie halos and not the 343/halo studios halos. 343 was trend chasing, while Bungie did there own thing and became a house hold name
@ParkerReidy Being part of the same studio doesn’t mean anything.
You can’t like when bungie left, they shut down halo 3 with it.
Enough with the bullshit excuses.
@ThelVanDamne@DangervilleTeam@Arcamico Goldeneye did not put shooters on console the same way halo did, sure goldeneye was successful, but no where near what halo did
Speaking as a fan who was critical of ME:A for it's underbaked features, poor writing and completely inexcusible performance state at launch..-
-there were also 100% online chuds out there complaining about "SJW agendas" regarding this game too.
@spreadsheeticus@dgripper00@IGN Disagreeing with you isn’t “jumping on a hype train.” I played all four, and Andromeda only has the gameplay to stand on, the writing is poor, the characters are forgettable, and the galaxy feels empty when compared to the first 3
Mass Effect Andromeda actor blames EA for game's quality, says it was "forced out the door too early" and became "punching bag of the week for online chuds." bit.ly/4w96Kiu
@TidyWire For me, that wasn’t what made me not like the game. I always say that andromedas gameplay is solid, but the things that put mass effect on the map, story, characters, choices, etc were very weak in andromeda
@ParkerReidy Fair enough, from what I'm seeing a lot of his comments are pretty inexcusible. I was unaware of this stuff as I never got any impression of this kind of rhetoric in the game itself.
Also seems he was fired at least.
@TidyWire I don’t remember all the details since it was so long ago at this point, but it was Manveer Heir. He had a bunch of anti white tweets, including ones of a mug that said white tears, and that he was blocking all of his white men followers.
@orbalology The only reason I could see skipping the first one (you shouldn’t since they’re important decisions in the first game) is that it’s like AC1. The later entrees just play and feel so much better, while the first one feels clunky
I played the first Mass Effect for 6+ hours yesterday on stream & absolutely loved it! I’ve seen people say to either skip or just mainline it to get to ME2 quickly, but I don’t get it. There’s so much great lore & character depth in the first game. I can’t wait to keep going!🌠
@spreadsheeticus@dgripper00@IGN What? They most certainly did not, they had completely different writers and it shows. Also “weird pedestal”? The first 3 earned that pedestal, especially 2. This is a situation where your objectively just wrong, please stop being performative by saying what you said
@ParkerReidy@dgripper00@IGN I played all four and people put the first three on a weird pedestal and then complained about four which did the exact same thing with the writing and characters.
@dgripper00@IGN I question wether you played the original 3 with this statement. Considering the only good thing about andromeda is the combat, everything is lesser when compared to the OG
@NuCaloric The tiered system for weapons is terrible, tier 5s power crept the sandbox faster than mountaintop and recluse ever did. They should’ve just expanded the shiny system. Imagine running Vog and you get a shiny variant of Fatebringer!
#4/#6 BEST SELLERS
"But Paul Tassi said majority bought on PC"
Alinea Analytics an estimate site wrong again
Just like like Destiny 2 the game has a healthy playerbase on CONSOLE with 345k daily.
But STEAM right?
Let's see how the Grifters/Haters spin damage control this.
