@reachthefinals Absolute 🔥🔥🔥update! Not gonna lie though, when I saw input changes for controller I thought I would finally be able to map ping to the A button. But alas, you still can’t do that and then coin after you die. PLEASE fix this issue! I want to use my A button! (LB is my jump)

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@xRareCollector @SadBoiKobi Completely agree. I’ve been exclusive to @reachthefinals since I left Apex for good 6mo ago. My metal health is 1000x better, it really opened my eyes to how toxic and excruciating it was playing Apex. I have fun in every session, even the ones where I don’t win or play poorly.

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@SadBoiKobi I wouldn’t say complexity is the issue. Granted I was a week 1 player, so it wasn’t nearly the beast it is now to learn. But the issue with the game always has and always will be matchmaking. Can’t learn a game when getting stomped on for 3-4 hours straight. Glad I quit 6mo ago.

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@sweetdreams I’ve never missed a game less. Quit about 6 months ago, as I finally had it with the lack of follow through on promises to improve matchmaking and enhance the casual experience.

Been playing @reachthefinals almost exclusively and my gaming mental health has never been better. 👍

@TheMacroShow Fax, no printer.

Which is why I’m big sad we are still getting Rivals videos and not the Light and Heavy For Noobs videos we were promised (among a plethora of other Finals content).

Play your game, king!

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@TubinMonkey You are still one of my favs, and that’s what really matters.

My love is endless. Twitch love is not.

You sexy hunk of man. 😘

I’m attempting to become an official @EmbarkStudios Creator for @reachthefinals. I’m starting my journey by streaming more frequently on https://t.co/b0wAs3cEyh and posting #TheFinals gameplay on https://t.co/TPkqm25rMC

Every little bit helps so follow, like, subscribe, & watch!

Just another day in Four Kings Casino getting F’d over by @digitalleisure while doing my dailies. “WiN 5 TiMeS oN rEd!”

Sorry, not sorry I don’t pay to win *ahem* pay for luck by becoming a VIP3

The other roulette table was even worse (31% red). Well done 👏👏👏

@PlayApex Perfect place to practice head glitching you mean? That’s all the mode is. Hold your head glitch and let the timer run until your opponent gets impatient and leaves cover.

The lack of ability usage in a game built around LEGENDS is also a baffling design choice.

OG Arenas only!

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@reachthefinals @EmbarkStudios Not only that, but based on all comments between YouTube and X, the community is full of great people who share those same ideals as well. Sure there are bad apples here and there, but the support and adoration from the players themselves show this game deserves the spotlight 🤩

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@reachthefinals Plus recruitment a great incentive to get friends to try a game I already enjoy. Bot range perfect to hone my skills and full bot matches to use as a confidence reset if I’m being stomped by sweats. @EmbarkStudios knows what the gamers want. Passion, fun, and fairness. Love it!

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@mokeysniper Take away any and all scan abilities. Done.

And you know… matchmaking, audio, servers, cheaters, lore, actual content (legends/weapons/maps/game modes that aren’t just LTMs), customizable private matches, proper clan system, EA greed, blah blah blah…

[THE FINALS @reachthefinals]

Are you ready for THE DIVIDE? Which side will you stand on?

Starting today, come back to our blog to learn something new about Season 7 every day!
https://t.co/vd4W4cOVre

Season 7 starts June 12 🔥

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

I truly wonder how people can take some of the #clickbait content creators seriously. Just this series of titles from @Thordansmash alone is hysterical

1. Reset button to save @PlayApex
2. Standard updates and leaks
3. Nevermind @Respawn giving up on apex
4. APEX WILL NEVA DIE!

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@zachariahkta @PlayApex Technically estates was a map for like 2 weeks during a rampart takeover, but it was pretty crappy and never returned lol

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@PlayApex And hillside outpost! Darn near forgot that one!

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

@PlayApex The fact that you’re selling the idea of an “arenas return” and it’s literally just 3 of the 6 designed maps is a super weird flex.

No party crasher, phase runner, or habitat 4 is sad.

Heck give us skull town, artillery, oasis, gardens, thermal, and dome for laughs. OGs know!

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

The diehard. The casual. The noob. The sweat. The M&K. The ‘roller. The day 1. The day 2119 (pic for context). Whatever the category, and whoever the gamertag. We are all one nation, under fun.

Love,
hertel3k

Apex Love Letter- A Thread

I think I can finally say with confidence that I’m done with @PlayApex as my main game. While I hope the new season is a success (yay arenas is back 😁), it’s borderline impossible for me to enjoy the game anymore. It’s a rather abusive relationship…

[hertel3k @hertel3k]

I’ll be sunsetting my favorite game until they decide that my side of the RELATIONSHIP is more important than any dollar or minute spent feeding the algorithm. Instead I’ll enjoy studios like @EmbarkStudios who strive to listen and talk to US, the gamers.
