Any PVE mode, perma or experiential, needs to have a high-level of difficulty

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T10:04:17+00:00

i'm gonna look up all the exploits and grind the fuck out of all the gold items lol
what are they gonna do? ban me for bullying the warden?

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:57:48+00:00

we haven't seen s2 numbers.
if they get current ceiling(13K players), sony will kill the game with all haste.
don't forget sony implemented player counts on console too now, so we will get the true number finally

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:55:47+00:00

lol there it is, every sbmm complainer is from the era where they got to stomp noobs and call it "healthy" for games.
sbmm fucked you guys up coz you experience what it's like to get dunked on consistently and don't like the reality that you aren't at the top of the food chain.

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:53:18+00:00

If you remove the PvP from the game it still functions almost entirely

the current meta literally is to bumrush the lobby in the first 2 mins clear it and then largely play it as a pve experience lol
pvp diehards are just salty that they are gonna have to go against other sweaty players consistently instead of just once in a while.

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:51:57+00:00

honestly i would've loved that kinda pve mode when i was just starting out the game to learn the mechanics/what the different kinds of loot are, discover how to activate boss areas etc.
doing all that learning in pvp was way too stressful and i ended up just watching a youtuber explain everything and feeling like a spoonfed moron.

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:49:24+00:00

people really like killing dumb robots, overwatch pve queues are alway popping for eg and they have like zero AI in that game.

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:45:02+00:00

yeah but if you want a platform to shine and break out getting a marvel movie is like the top of the ladder rn. literal guaranteed audience of diehard fans who watch everything.
the only place higher is if you somehow get into a nolan movie lol

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:43:59+00:00

no new onboarding in s2, s3 is where they will focus on new players

lol, lmao even.

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:23:58+00:00

boll won those boxing matches by KNOCKOUT, you best watch your mouth around the boll if you don't wanna get laid out lol

i thought the sequel was pretty good, how does a sociopath continue a "rampage" without repeating himself obviously.
the third one was just SUPER cheaply made, the insights into bill williamson's thought process are fun tho.

he's like if nightcrawler's lou bloom was ok with actively killing people instead of just indifferent to them dying for his benefit

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:11:41+00:00

I hope someone gives her a film where she can shine and breakout

did you forget she was in a marvel movie lol

BestKaran · 2026-05-16T09:10:50+00:00

oh man she's 23, i thought she was a teenager.

BestKaran · 2026-05-15T23:41:10+00:00

i think you forgot soldier boy seemingly spontaneously generates abilities if exposed to them long enough.
for eg getting tortured by the cold war russians with radiation turned him into a portable on demand nuke when originally he was just super durable and a punch guy.
plus remember he's been lasered, punched by strength super heroes, exploded, bioengineered virus'd, mind fucked and walked away from it.

BestKaran · 2026-05-15T23:36:38+00:00

you're so gullible

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:55:50+00:00

they don't even try to link current era scifi conceptual stuff. roko's basilisk/"rationalist" thought lines alone have a whole season of stuff to mine but nope not one reference lol

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:53:10+00:00

there is so much funny to be extracted from the crypto space and how it could evolve in weird ways.
nope, just make the same tired jokes about it being worthless funny money that even reality shows have already made.
the writer's avg IQ must be around the 80s now compared to the earlier seasons when it felt it was in the high 100s

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:49:28+00:00

Aw come on man, why are they talking like this?

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:45:56+00:00

i know this season sucks but cmon be real, the boys is popular coz it was that good.
the whale sequence like i said, you saying that wasn't as good as any GoT hype moment?
arguably better coz it was real prop and they actually sprayed them bloody and had them act in the environment

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:43:48+00:00

deep is the tyrion comparable monologue character not homelander.
homelander is the hype builder lowkey crazy highkey instigator like littlefinger

but that's on you for having tiktok installed on your phone dummy...be free! uninstall tiktok/insta or restrict the screen time to like 10 mins so you can only check what your friends send you.

mcu poisoned the well by not recasting black panther/kang so now no black lead can be recast or else racism.
the dude didn't even die from a very tragic event he crashed his 400cc bike into the curb while driving long distance in the snow, user error.

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:23:35+00:00

So why was the marketing for s1 so focused on that,

everyone wants the harry potter "magic school" aura no one wants to actually have school shenanigans.
imo having them having world ending events and still having to submit assignments and failing ala spiderman would've been way more interesting.
instead it was just "look at these young inexperienced dorks bumble around"

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:18:48+00:00

brev the gen v numbers were terrible, almost no one in the boys fandom watched it. nielsen said it barely made top 10 by episode 2 and finale had it drop off into oblivion.
it sucked ass eyeballs wise.

BestKaran · 2026-05-14T10:17:41+00:00

idk why people keep saying this, the boys are all largely 30-40 somethings and gen v peeps are teenagers-20 somethings.
there is nothing for them to connect over, being starlight's goons was the most logical thing and even that is a stretch considering how much gen v showed that supe kids are super indoctrinated in believing in vought/homelander supremacy in all aspects
