@a_wolfen@Dankness01 i mean, he's not wrong?
just because bandai makes a game you like doesn't suddenly make them exempt from being absolutely awful pieces of shit in the industry?
no-one gaf about $4 its the shit it enables them to do, this is literally the excuses gacha game players use btw
@OnlyWaifu do you want to pay fromsoft $2 for each balance patch?
do you really want elden ring 2 to have monster hunter rise/wilds tier MTX but for weapons/armour?
this is literally what you're telling fromsoft this is okay to do because they can sell you class/gear packs for $3
@OnlyWaifu there is literally no justification for this lol
this is free update content, $3 for what should be a patch for a FULL PRICE game with a PAID expansion?
if we think $3 is fine and your purchase has value in "supporting devs" then gacha games are doing nothing wrong at all
@Kagerisu i think in the collab context its because the predominantly male audience tend to be fans of female vtubers, as well as the T2 player count
in the general context its because the T1 stuff they DO release sucks balls 90% of the time, they need to get a new designer for T1's
@DireRavennn yeah this shit blew my mind lmfao
didn't we absolutely shit on bethesda for years over this?
fromsoft get a pass on absolutely anything they do no matter how shit it is
new starting classes lowkey are a big deal for someone like me who likes lv.50-80 saves to invade with
@2dark2souls the heavier the weapon in ER almost always = better
STR having superior scaling than DEX even after SOTE tried to address it
yeah, fuck STR lmao, the true baby mode
@bodyofburden@Vai_Smash@PabloMakes@haloman649 equinox's issue i think is the lack of playstyle variety, and how essentially only one niche part of the kit functions properly. everything is just frustrating to use or powercrept
even equinox's strongest aspects get mogged by the usual suspects, so no-one even bothers to try
@PabloMakes@haloman649 lowkey feels disrespectful to equinox and it's designers frames like this are often discarded and left in awful states of balance and enjoyment due to low player count. now we drive it even lower?
some eventual attention to warframe's weaker designs imo is more important
@neptombz@DVADigital323 look man i never said it was peak but we're comparing real-time player input in an action game to OG FF7 menus
like we're comparing the 5th and 6th circles of hell here, if you want to drop the difficulty down to the lowest and mash out punisher mode normals you do you 😭
@PotionOfStars@magatsuizanyagi the issue is e33's depth is literally ONE system, that is so poorly balanced you do NOT need to learn or engage in other aspects of the game to succeed.
it is objectively poor game design.
elden ring has rolling, but rolling doesn't break the game, its one part of many systems
@PotionOfStars@magatsuizanyagi the issue is that your entire paragrahs of yapping actually can be resolved by just spending 10 minutes learning the parry timing
they're not ultra-precise, they're generous as fuck. YOU are part of the problem by refusing to learn it and then claiming its "depth"
@KZXcellent torgal who's integral to juggling enemies without a charge input or cooldown, and whos optimisations are key to clearing ultimaniac and maximising damage? 😭😭😭
just cause YOU didn't know how to use it don't mean you can slander my goat, hop off torgal rn
@Rique08h@RoadFFxiv yeah bro i remember the allagans with their louis vuitton and their maid outfits, their jirai kai fits and their baggy sweatpants and t-shirt combo, or the fat cat hoodie
what a disingenuous argument, if you want IRL outfits, ask for an FF set in the real-world modern day
@editorstan_ again, check garlemald outfits, they're not a jirai kei military with the officers wearing modern maid outfits
they have a distinct theme and their outfits serve that purpose.
its all so they can sell overpriced outfits in the mogshop for erp'ers and gposers.
go play pso2 lol
@editorstan_ no-one is upset at the raid gear or the solution 9 themed gear
its the casual hoodies/t-shirts etc. that don't have an actual basis to tie their existence to.
its called art direction, and FF14 has lots of different ones, but 0 of them are these "check the balenciaga" outfits
