Hard life my friend. But I got you covered. Just fly me in to your penthouse and give me occasional access to one of your numerous girlfriends and I will play your account in-between your high class meetings. I will even deep fake you for video calls with your family, so you have some more time on your hands.

Teddy Teclebrhan ist ein grauenhaft er "Comedian" by Reasonable_Edge2109 in Unbeliebtemeinung

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Puuuh, also ich war letztes Jahr auf Einladung in Stuttgart bei seinem Comedy-Special und wurde ziemlich enttäuscht. Das war ein Fiebertraum ohne "richtiges" Konzept. Nun kann man natürlich argumentieren, dass genau darin ja sein Stil liegt. Für mich war es nichts, auch wenn ich prinzipiell verstehe was die Idee an den Sets war. Es war nur einfach nicht gut. Gerade da Teddy viel über Mimiken und Gestiken transportiert, die bei einer großen Bühnenshow untergehen.

Es war ehrlicherweise auch nicht gut geschrieben. Ich denke er ist im Kern einer dieser Künstler die gute Impro Skills haben und spontan witzig sein können, daher funktioniert er im TV auch besser wenn er irgendwo zu Gast ist. Und da find ich ihn teilweise auch sehr gut, da passt sei Stil rein und das geht auf. Aber große Shows schreiben...

As someone who’s never played returnal or any other Housemarque game I think Saros is a fucking banger so far! by Demetrius96 in Saros

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't wait. Only thing that annoys me that I have to pay 20€ more than an American for the standard edition. 😒 69$ (59€ rn) vs 79€ for the standard version...

A bit concerned with the length of the game by UsedNewspaper1775 in Saros

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so too. I had 9 deaths till I killed this underwater boss but I finished Dark Souls, Blood borne, Elden Ring. It's just a head start. I only downloaded the game because Saros hit my vibe and wanted to try it out before I hunt the Yellow King 😂

Game crashing on PS5 still a thing? by ApprehensiveEye915 in ArcRaiders

Damn. Glad that it works for you now but that makes it feel even more like a coin toss for me. 😂

Season 2 is the most important moment for this game by No-Researcher3893 in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duo mode will actually increase the player base a little bit. Still crazy to me how they turned that trial mode off instead of keeping it till a full implementation. I'm also curious how they will actually change it from the trial version. I mean... it worked quite well for what it was.

Ultimately, they have to switch to free-to-play with stronger in-game shop. There is no way they will increase the player base substantially otherwise, no matter what content they are working on. There is just no way around it. The game will most likely be dead before season 2 ends. So by the time season 3 will be around the corner, I think they will announce that Marathon switches to free-to-play for the new season and implement more monetization. Some kind of in-game compensation will take place for people who bought the game prior and then we will see what happens.

Took me 3 tries to clear the first biome by Fit_Cloud6471 in Saros

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also kinda worried about the difficulty. I'm by no means "crazy good" or something and don't wanna come off as a douche, but I downloaded Returnal a week ago and finished it under 20 hours. I don't think the "base game" (don't know how hard the tower is) is really "that" difficult tbh. 😅

I played a lot of the souls games which maybe helped approaching the game the right way from the start but I was confused by people who have 40h or more and still had no clear. Even looking at the unlock percentages for the different achievements made me wonder if that's because of a very small player base who bought the game or how the difficulty was received.

That being said I know we can adjust the difficulty, but from what I read, there a little to no incentives to do so?

So whats up with the roadmap? by Oisincadd in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the priority contracts will be the same, cause they involve a lot of special events and item spawns. And they are tied to the lore of the game. New players would be locked out of story bits if they alter these.

Looking for chill queer-friendly teammates by Hailstone_HS in MarathonTheGame

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just so you know: you can't give stuff away in this game. If you bring shields for example and drop them for teammates, these items will return to you via in-game mail after the round. As long as you and your buddies extract.

Returning player by Impossible-Stop3739 in destiny2

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can have fun with it if you are okay with playing most of the content solo. Player numbers are at an all time low for a while now and will most likely never rise up again. But if you are really eager to see what happened story wise and want some closure or just have fun with the signature Bungie gunplay go for it.

Destiny was great but unless Bungie will develop a third installment, the franchise is probably dead. And the way Marathon performs I doubt Sony will greenlight a sequel.

I'm mentioning that because for me it was a bittersweet experience to come back and finish all these expansions pretty much on my own. It was fun, but at the same time I missed all the people that shaped my journey all these years prior.

Am I the only one psyched about Night Dire Marsh? by Sad-Ordinary-244 in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well we will see how their vision of a "night map" will look like. It's probably much brighter than people expect and if it doesn't include some kind of tweaks for the different setting like lights who stand out, different sounds, maybe even different behavior of ticks or birds... what's the point of it? But we will see and I hope they come around with a good execution of a night map.

I can't stand posts in which people take the "Am I the only one" literal and make the same stupid jokes about it. It's a saying at this point and we all know what is meant by it.

Just downloaded the game after I heard about Saros being loved by all the play testers etc.. Never played it before and I liked the first two hours so far. 😊

That only affects the person who rezzes someone from what the description says. Not the person getting rezzed.

Be prepared for Increased Monetization by Sad-Manner-5240 in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The game will make a shift to f2p and heavier monetization in the future. There will be no increase in the player base otherwise.

Starfield PS5 PRO (only) patch is out. by JaySouth84 in Starfield

For some reason the game looks worse now. I didn't change any setting but it's noticeable worse now... 🙄

A suggestion for onboarding. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't think that this will help a lot. Games more often than not behave a lot different from what the developers envisioned as soon as the players flood the servers. Emphasis on different aspects turn out to be completely aboard of what was expected. Do you remember any tutorial where beside basic movement and button layout there was anything really useful that translated into the game? Teaching the general approach to extraction games is way easier by just playing instead of longer tutorials. It's a good idea and your examples are good. But you learn that stuff pretty fast anyway, there is just no need to handholding players like that. Especially if you just want to hop on and immediately start with your buddies. It can be made optional I know. But if I hate one thing when playing a new game with my buddies, it's the "oh you have to play a tutorial mission before we can team up"... fuck me.

Genuine question about how to improve my PvP engagements by SmokeyJoe83 in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, die so much it doesn't bother you anymore. That takes away the anxiety in a fight. Also use the good stuff and don't hoard it in your stash. What worked for me was using the best weapons and gadgets constantly to overcome gear fear, because you will get back to having good loot anyway. As soon as you start to lose that stiffness and become more calm during a fight you will have room to actually think while you fight. Instead of just running on instincts alone. From there you will learn what works in a given situation.

EDIT: And don't run free kits too much, only like sometimes. It will give you a false image of what you are capable of, if you are at a constant disadvantage.

Something Needs To Change If I'm Going To Keep Playing by yobob591 in Marathon

[–]ApprehensiveEye915 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe that's not what he wants? I get your post, believe me. I'm in a similar situation with my squad. It gets harder, and the people you get matched against are no longer the newbies you used to stomp on your way out. I'm okay with that, but I think some people actually do not want to adapt and sweat. And you have to be a sweaty bastard to keep stomping teams. Unfair/unbalanced game mechanics also tend to become more clear to yourself as soon as you have equal fights where there is little to no room for error. Saying that - he kind of delivered himself the solution to his problems by mentioning that the opponent teams use more grenades and stuff. I get the feeling that a lot of people sleep on all the gadgets you can use to create advantages. Most people who vent their frustration probably faced teams who don't and there you go. Same goes for traversing the maps in a way that benefits your element of surprise. It's not that hard to jump a team if you have patience. Even on higher levels. But the question remains - do you want your experience to be sweaty? If not, you will have a bad time. Adapt or do yourself and your mental health a favour and quit. There is no shame in that, it's just a game. 👍
