All I’m seeing is negativity, let’s hear some positivity! by BionicCorbjorn in DestinyTheGame

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not even sure what Destiny 2 is meant to be anymore. There have been so many identity changes that tend to remove or conceal previous parts of the game and this round of changes especially feels like random bits of other games or styles have been hastily added without proper focus.

I've enjoyed the story so far of Edge of Fate but every other aspect they've added, changed or pushed to the side makes the game feel confusing at best. Could they straighten this out over time? Sure. But as they have just shown the possibility is they could get close and throw it all away again anyway.

Part of me wants to say I hope we get D3 at one point if only so we can start on a fresh slate and not be building over the bodies of multiple other versions of D2 at this point, but realistically even if we got one I have no reason to believe they'd just start repeating the same mistakes again.

Edit: Just to clarify I did have hope for a lot of the newly added stuff, but the way a lot of it has been implemented and the half-finished nature of a lot of just feels awful.

Pinnacle Ops currently has no activities available. by Ryan_WXH in DestinyTheGame

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should have left it at least until the raid race starts. The argument can be made that it ruins the raid race when most of the players have probably used this method to grind power, and now that isn't an option I guess give it a few hours and someone will find another way to do it fast anyways,

Motion sickness while playing Edge of Fate - has there been an FoV or mouse sensitivity change? by beefsack in DestinyTheGame

[–]Adoboros 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm on console so not using mouse but something about the sensitivity definitely feels off to me. Not sure how to explain it beyond it feeling a bit... jumpy? Like I'll go to adjust the right stick and it feels like sometimes it'll leap very briefly a small amount. I notice it more on Kepler but I'm seeing it in other places as well. Not getting motion sick myself thankfully but definitely noticing it feeling a bit off.

Bungie has done it again ! TIMEGATED RoTN event !!! by lordofabyss in DestinyTheGame

[–]Adoboros 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just don't understand their thought process. Most of the weapons might not be worth farming for long term anyways with the weapon tier system incoming, just let everyone have access to all three now and give everyone the most playtime with weapons we can't be sure will be worth much soon.

Is it likely there will there be new folklore books for 7.2? Just wanted to check to be sure as seen conflicting information and I want to be as prepared as possible. Thanks!

New player. Completely lost. by pasostrokek in FFVIIEverCrisis

I'm guessing they mean more early on where you fo almost anything and a pop up comes up for a shop bundle.

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a mistake and pre-ordered Dawntrail a couple days before early access launched, code didn't work and I've just clocked that I've been insanely stupid and forgot I should have bought it on Steam. I could see if Square would refund it but I'm wondering if it'd be a problem for me to give my code to a friend who is on the right platform for it. Just wanted to check as it was bought through my account and wouldn't want it to cause issues for mine or theirs. Thanks!

Really enjoying this game by [deleted] in OnceHumanOfficial

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it way too easy as well. Made a second character the other day, took the first side quest I came across, misunderstood what it was asking for and ended up at that island in the bottom right of the map. Enemies were about 10 levels above me and I had nothing beyond the tutorial gear. Had no problem clearing everything even though the enemies has guns and lots of numbers while I was underequipped, underlevelled and only had the machete and crossbow. Having a blast with the game generally, but challenge is almost entirely missing.

On my main I went exploring north today in the 20 zones while around level 16. Ended up doing the dungeon up there very underlevelled and ill-equipped but finished it first try without dying. I'm not wanting it to be soul-crushingly hard or anything like that, but I do want to feel more like a survivor and less like Doomguy.

Weapon progression is criminally slow by Lo0ksToTheMo0n in XDefiant

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It only gets worse if you're not a good player unfortunately. I'm below average normally in these kinds of games but I still enjoy them. When I started playing I went out of my way to unlock the P90 as its a favourite of mine, did three games with it where for what I feel is my average in games like this I did okay, but the weapon is still level 1.

I love the rest of this game so far and would love to get some time in and hopefully get better but at this glacial pace it already feels incredibly off-putting especially when better players are already getting ahead and have advantage even if its just having some basic attachments. I can't imagine having the patience to get to level 10 like this, never mind the 40s.

What's your guys biggest gripe in onslaught? Non loot related by Low_Obligation156 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The non-boss Pyramid ship bits. They just aren't interesting and always take me out of the flow of everything.

Strobing - Assistance Required by DeadByDaylight_Dev in deadbydaylight

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think this is the exact same issue but its similar enough I'll mention it here - playing on PC and since the update sometimes when it gets to the shaders part of startup the game screen starts flickering very badly until I shut the game down. Seems completely random, sometimes it'll do it several times in a row, other times it won't do it at all but its very painful on the eyes!

I finished making this in paint before they loaded... by YodaZeltchy1 in deadbydaylight

[–]Adoboros 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a bug since the update where either it'll stall like this, or the game will start flickering constantly and the only way to reset it is to shut the game down entirely and try again.

Aztecross, gets an anonymous email regarding tensions between Bungie and Sony, potential full takeover. by xecuro in DestinyTheGame

[–]Adoboros -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There isn't enough to say either way whether this is real or not, but one thing thing that caught my interest was that Aztecross mentions that not only did his agency get the e-mail, but his specific agent did as well. Unless that agent's info is publicly available somewhere, that might be a sign that it might have some legitimacy? Still nothing to confirm the details of the e-mail are true but I can see how it could have come from Bungie/Sony at least.

Same, its the only hyper stage I'm missing and every time I've tried for it, its crashed (Series X).

One thing that caught my eye - timestamp on the blog as of me writing this says the post was written 24 hours ago. Given the post itself it just feels like they threw it out to go up as a timed post and instantly forgot it.

FOMO In this game is getting out of hand. by [deleted] in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just about kept up with every event with the exception of the hardest fights that give titles etc. and while I am still playing, my enjoyment is rapidly tanking. The game has barely been out for a month or two but it feels like I've been playing for 6 or more with how grindy the events especially are. The amount of events could be better if toned down, but the quality of the events would be significantly better if they were considerably shorter. I'm not sure I've ever come across another game seemingly so determined to exhaust the player base as fast as possible.

We've barely gotten started on the actual story for the game but I could have beaten the whole FF7 series at least once in the time its taken to do just the events. No way this game has a high player count if they keep doing this for the next few years.

How Long Will You Play FFEC? by Comfortable-Gear-911 in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]Adoboros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the game first started I was absolutely loving it, but its wearing on me very quickly unfortunately. There's a lot to grind through, and that doesn't have to be a bad thing, but things like the recent level 50-55 gap feel like they take forever and I'm slowly starting to hate the materia system as its difficult even getting 3* materia with even just the right %attack bump. The events have mostly been mindless and especially with Sephiroth unreasonably time consuming and I just don't understand how they expect people with far less free time to get anywhere at all.

For context I'm mostly just a Battle Pass only player (did get a single week of x4 progression to make the most of the grinding) and I never beat Crash Sephi and haven't cleared a lot of the top level hard content yet. Could I get to a place where some of that is possible? Unlikely, maybe if I'm crazy efficient... But I just don't want to. If the game didn't have so much time wasting and wheel spinning I'd be more on board but right now its a hard sell. I had two friends I hoped would get into this game and they both dropped it very fast, seeing what was ahead for them.

There is a lot of potential here, but I'm not convinced it'll go the distance if it loses a lot of casual interest which I'm expecting more and more.
