@NuCaloric @dsc_nate Probably some super popular MMO since thats basically what a live service game is.

@dsc_nate I'm just wondering what live service prompted other live services to do it in blogposts and shit, because I feel like I distinctly remember a period where just calling them "players" was the norm

Is Destiny 1 what started that thing where every new game has to use a proper noun to refer to its playerbase such as "Wardens," "Raiders," "Freegunners," etc? I did not play any shooters until around 2014, so I'm genuinely asking.

@Glhuun @JonDArsen He has no proof that that is the case. Hes just talking out of his ass.

@JonDArsen English wasn't your strongest subject it seems. He's not making the case that intricate ecology is a bad thing unto itself, he's expressing disappointment that it's taken priority to the exclusion of the gameplay. Not even integrating or meaningfully contributing to it.

all these details in wilds actually piss me off because all of it amounts to useless fluff for youtubers and autists to gush about on top of a increasingly uninteresting action game instead of laying the groundwork for a interesting Monster HUNTER game.

@RobinPoedev @browndwarf6 L take. Why does it HAVE to contribute? Its the little touches that make a game feel lived in, and it detracts NOTHING to the rest of the stuff you expect the game to do. Its not an either or situation we can have both. Min Max brain poisoning your rationale

@browndwarf6 I agree! But the fact that none of it contributes to the mechanical experience makes me critical of all of it. If that makes since. Hell, if I just liked the game more fundamentally id see it as a bonus not a drawback, mabye missed potential, but not actively frustrating

@NuCaloric @Pinemannn Is the Osteo not the needler?

@Pinemannn throwing knives, first person swords, dual pistols (lol), proper double-barrel shotguns, drum shotguns, knives, etc. They could also go with mimicking fictional weapons like the Pulverizer, Needler, etc. I imagine the first two would be a bit difficult, though.

There's really so many unique types of FPS weapons that could've been added to D2 and it really shocks me that Bungie resorted to Glaives and rocket specials as if there were no other ideas

@ElevatedAmoeba4 @BRAZZERSBOT @CenturiiC He posts weird culture war bs and is openly bigoted on his podcast.

@BRAZZERSBOT @CenturiiC Did he? I was really into his content a while ago, but I'm not up to date. What happened?

if you think about it. Landsknechts are just medieval gyarus

@DominusFlorum @BungieLove To help pay for the costs of cancer treatment for children bozo.

@BungieLove Im sorry why are there limited amounts of digital items again

@denzelh92 @blueberriesGG Thats what the other golden gun spec does, it would make that spec irrelevant

@blueberriesGG it should get stronger after each kill!

Renegades truly delivered some excellent changes for Hunters 👌 (video footage from u/LieutenantNurse-71)

@Bastion0418 @RGSensabaugh @corgarino @Andrew__123_ @blueberriesGG That has been a thing before, but the regeneration rate was nerfed for all roaming supers that could regen the bar during the super. Its never been this strong though.

@RGSensabaugh @corgarino @Andrew__123_ @blueberriesGG Yeah total cap lmao. This change was recent so kills with GG grant you another GG shot and extend the super

@LukeCB14 We had an entire expansion taking place in there. It's STILL a destination with a bunch of missions.

Savathun's Dreadnaught was such a beautiful location. Really makes me wish it got more of a spotlight outside of the one mission at the start of Witch Queen.

@MadMatikus @cooliod00d @lastchalice @bethesda @StarfieldGame @Xbox You still got another 40 years lmao

@cooliod00d @lastchalice @bethesda @StarfieldGame @Xbox Thanks for this. At 46 with less than half my life remaining I have to be very intentional about what I give my time to. Masterpieces only.

Starfield has the best main quest of any Bethesda game.

@djodjeee_ The shoulder pads arent sliding off of him in the image on the right.

Something is off but I can’t put my finger on it

@MichaelCal3302 @RagnarSan22 @Davidtrillli You gain xp though

@RagnarSan22 @Davidtrillli When I played pokemon, the MOST annoying thing about the earlier games was the fact that when you entered the tall grass, you could have 'random encounters' whenever you Didn't want them. If there is no farming for materials, the only time I want to fight is when I gain something

Voy a decir algo un poco impopular. Creo que se tendría que ERRADICAR por completo el farmeo de todos los RPG/JRPG. El farmeo de experiencia nació de las limitaciones técnicas de los juegos antiguos, y hoy en dia ya no hace ninguna falta. Rompe el ritmo por completo.

@ScottJund Then don't

man Elden Ring always sounds so fun in theory to replay but then I sit down and start the game and don't want to collect 46 bell bearings, 405 sites of grace, 6 thousand flask upgrades, my spells, talismans, all 9000 pinecones, etc.

@Promptmethus @bizlet7

@bizlet7 Yeah we need more stories about government that are on collapse from the Mind virus actually overthrowing it and actually need to get rid of Star Wars and stop educating our children that were inherently evil for just doing the necessary things that it takes to run a country

I’m tired of stories where the rebels are the good guys. We need ones where the regime crushes the weirdo degenerates.

@change2change4 @izzynobre @bizlet7 @FrenlyOfficer You didnt like the table top? You're not gonna like any of it lmao

@izzynobre @bizlet7 @FrenlyOfficer The table top

@YourWaifu 80gb just to make the game barely good

My boyfriend informed me he had to make an 80gb swap file just to run this mod jesus christ man

@Jeremito_04 @Peperino_72 @chriswithans @horrorvisuals Now you're just going into Lovecraftion bullshit, if theyre indescribable. And its unrealistic.

@Peperino_72 @chriswithans @horrorvisuals One has to resort to known language to describe them but, there could be aliens that don't resemble life on earth and can be describable in a way tha isnt "has seven tentacles, lives in gas environment, uses simbolic language" that just sounds like a septopus-human amalgamation.

Every once in a while I'm fascinated with the fact that no matter how much we try, we seem to be incapable of designing truly alien beings. In most media they carry either typical Lovecraftian qualities, animal like features, or they're humanoid shaped.

@GhostofMahvel @KelTjorson @barishadenough @chriswithans @horrorvisuals Thats fucking dumb too, because nothing in our entire existence or that of the universe has ever just come into being the way it is from its conception 100% original. Everything that has ever been has been like something else in one form or an other.

@KelTjorson @barishadenough @chriswithans @horrorvisuals We aren't arguing about realism or believability here, we're arguing about creating something truly 100% new that isn't just based on already existing concepts.

@GerardoPulsado @isaac_evilman @VargaNacha12868 @bagdelete @horrorvisuals Thats assuming it would even need tools like ours, or that it would even need to achieve what we've achieved.

@isaac_evilman @VargaNacha12868 @bagdelete @horrorvisuals What other type of body part could achieve the same things ours can?

@DStitchman @voidsentflame YEAH all two of em!

@voidsentflame Marathon has always been a single player series. Getting mad about people who want more PvE in the new one is really silly. Old fans deserve to experience the story too

arc raiders has done irreparable damage to the extraction shooter genre i'm so serious
