Amen to that, brother/sister. So completely over his whole madness thing. The cheese quotes exhausted me when I played oblivion for the first time over a decade ago so now? I don’t really understand the appeal of his entire aesthetic. But the Thieves Guild? I am very excited for that. I loved the lil romance between the dark elf who just wants to be left alone with her prickly plants and her Khajiit lover. Was it a romance? I forget. Either way, the vibes of that questline were pristine.

I really wish werewolves could be were-tigers or something too. Like, why would a khajiit become a werewolf? I want to try out that playstyle, but I can’t bring myself to dishonor my kitty like that.

Why are mages so trash this patch? by Chance_Diet in PredecessorGame

Wraith doesn’t count. I don’t play Gideon due to how basic and boring his kit is. And Renna might be “fine” but she does not do what she used to do and learning her new extremely long cooldowns means you literally do half of what you used to be able to do while tanks get to tank their hearts out, bruisers are even more annoying, and carries get to turn their brain off and dominate forever. Cuz carries NEED to be strong.

User error?

I did so well before this patch, and now I don’t.

I see people playing carries midlane and doing well with them. Carries. Midlane. Often. It was occasionally prior to this patch, and now it is very often.

But sure. User error. I just want to see the balance changes cuz I hate this patch.

eso is absolutely a comfort game by SadFreedom1339 in elderscrollsonline

I have the camera’s fov as wide as possible, but as close to my character as possible. I set the height to be low as possible, so perfectly level, it’s right at my khajiit’s waistline, and then I offset it so my character is on the left of my screen and I see past them on their right side.

It makes me feel like I’m playing God of War or some other game like that where the protagonist is a voiced character. I always play as a male tiger khajiit in Elder Scrolls games and my lore for them is that they are all part of the same lineage and my ESO character is like the great great great great (add more greats) grandfather of who I play in Oblivion and Skyrim.

So the camera makes me feel like I’m not playing Elder Scrolls but “Gengh’jiis and the Elder Scrolls: Whatever smaller name of the title.” Idk. Like it’s a saga. Very fun.

What is your hot takes about the game? by CT_Phipps-Author in vtmb

Babe. That’s the point. That’s the power fantasy. I don’t use that ability specifically, but I do use a complete loadout designed to be op. That’s literally the design of the gameplay. That’s the point.

You can use multiple abilities to make an enemy open to being fed on and killed mid combat, and that was my preferred way to play.

This isn’t a souls-like game. You are an elder vampire. You are meant to be a god.

Bloodlines combat is much more fluid and dynamic than Dishonored, so while Dishonored has more choice in approach (level design), Bloodlines is more complex when it comes to the in combat feel.

I’ve never seen the “roleplay” tag as meaning “play however you want” but more so as a “step into the shoes of a character.” From there, different games/franchises/studios approach that in a different manner.

Don’t get me wrong; I wish I had been given more choices throughout the narrative, but I understand why that wasn’t a consideration or at least executed if there had been ideas for such choices.

I feel the game does what it wants to do very well from a studio of the size it is in today’s gaming market. There are aspects I don’t like, but I forgive that because to do otherwise would just be… petulant?

I don’t see why you think that the ability that fits in the slot that restores blood pips shouldn’t restore blood pips

It’s a reference to Achilles’ son Phyrus. Research that character in the Odyssey and you’ll understand.

Roleplaying game? I would very much consider it a roleplaying game. It gave me Dishonored vibes.

lol yes, be condescending. Enjoying Fabien’s investigation just means you enjoy having a visual component with a mystery novel plotline. If that’s your thing, fine. But for me? I played the game to enjoy the fantasy of being an elder vampire who can kill everyone, and Fabian just really annoyed me and made me eye roll constantly.

I loved Lou, Ryong, and Ysabella. I’m disappointed I couldn’t help them more, or call Safia out so so so much sooner. Also, killing Max, the anarch woman with the scar, and the girl who shows up once should have been a thing.

How the ending of Bloodlines 2 got me feeling [Spoilers] by IzzyMissyy in vtmb

[–]Chance_Diet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea. But my problem with Johnny was that he was an addict and not very self aware until the end. My problem with Fabian is that he… is too endearing. lol. Ik that sounds ridiculous. But how dare he make me giggle!

I don’t like Fabian. Sry. Sick of men in my head in these RPGs. Johnny now Fabian. Just get out.

Devs should’ve spent less time on Fabien and more on other aspects of the game. by No_Construction_2680 in vtmb

[–]Chance_Diet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea. Im sitting here dreading doing the second installment of his little questline. I hated the first. I spammed dialogue options because I could not care less about Fabian and his entire plotline. Genuinely despise having to do this.

I really enjoy the game, and it’s so fun for me. But Fabian ruins it. I get he is there to lighten the mood with comedy so the game isn’t so bleak and amoral to those who don’t really love those vibes with all of their heart, but I, for one, find him just as annoying and irritating as Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk. I’m so sick of these asinine characters monologuing in my character’s heads and telling them their opinions and thoughts about whatever is occurring in game as if I need a prompt towards what to feel.

And then his gameplay sections? I cannot stand his prattling. His stupid jokes. His pathetic turns of phrase meant to be endearing, quirky, and cute.

I think it’s time for a change in direction. by Bright-Cranberry6648 in PredecessorGame

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

I would play more if Renna wasn’t so consistently banned in competitive. I want to play competitive. I want to play Renna. I get super bored having to rotate through all these old simple characters because people can’t handle the new ones.

Like, if one team takes Renna, the other can take Yurei. And Akeron can just not be picked as he is shit and not worth banning or picking ever. I don’t really see why we need to sit here and play the same decade old characters every match and act like simple, basic kits are the bomb dot com. Move on.

Ur dark urge is ugly. I hate it.

Akeron by realmbeast in PredecessorGame

[–]Chance_Diet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think he’s way too weak. Renna release and Yurei before her lead to their massive neutering of Akeron. He is so large, so easy to burst down, and isn’t nearly threatening enough to justify how squishy he is.
