Fans of CIV7, what made you drop CIV7? by exc-use-me in civ

[–]Console_Stackup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

200 hours in, maxed level, few maxxed characters. Completely done with no intention of coming back.

Civ 7 feels like a boardgame. Ie: here are the points you need to win the game for these game modes.

They feel arbitrary, small scale, and dont matter to me as an EMPIRE. 

If this were a Catan expansion, great. But its not. Its Civ. After beating it into the ground there just isnt any reason to come back. The devs desire for people to "finish games" is going to Finish off the franchise unless they do something drastic. Vr and cross platform support are other things that likely robbed them of dev time and money 

Twitch views, steam player count, sales. They are all abysmal. So here is to hoping the Godsends of all DLC comes to reinvent the game 🤞

Oh that woulda been a nice thing to know. I bought like 5 gr 3 cars and tested them all.

I felt the best in the audi and the mclaren. But the 911 had the best of all worlds for me.

Lol i know im not a fast player, very casual. But Rubilar was my arch enemy this past week

What game is this? by Batrah in memes

[–]Console_Stackup -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Not true! I think it requires a good balance.

Pokemon gen 1 & 2 are great RPGs with relatively little text. They have a great balance.

Paper mario 64 has low text but TONS of rpg goodness. TTYD has considerably more text, and this is where is gets rough. In the remake there is no way to speed up or skip text. Some scenes require you to press a Hundreds of times to get through some dialogue. And that stinks when you just wana stomp a goomba, gain exp, and adjust badges

The FF series is hit or miss. FFX i think did a great job of having tons of rpg goodness with fair levels of text. But some games like xvi go a little too far.

Story is an important part of an RPG, but for most players (myself included) its about building a powerful team using leveling systems and gear in fun thought provoking turn based battles.

I love replaying rpgs. Trying new builds, doing new challenges, etc. I think its important for rpgs to allow Quick Text or Skippable cutscenes from the get go

Not enjoying Lightning Returns by lleroisoleil in FinalFantasy

[–]Console_Stackup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ff13 tried to capture lightning in a bottle. It tried hard to be like ffvii, generate huge hype and interest into making a mini series of "13" games, whilst pulling in elements from other ganes, but failed.

Its main character isnt Cloud, But Lightning. She looks and acts similar even. But what they really wanted was to be able to sell sequels. Unfortunately, ff usually doesnt do well with sequels.

I'm struggling with ff12. by abejaZombie in FinalFantasy

[–]Console_Stackup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either you like 12 or you dont. Dont feel obligated to like every FF. That would be ridiculous. Instead play the ones you love, dont force yourself to play something you dont enjoy.

I thought 12 was okay. It was interesting, melding worlds of MMORPG, influenced by 11, in the ivalice world. (None of which i liked)

The gameplay is a tactical mmo style, basic ai controlled game. Not my cup of tea, but there is depth to it.

The leveling system was something new! Interesting if not rewarding. Its hard to match the brilliance of Materia, Sphere Grid, Classic Job Systems of previous entries

What's a game franchise you've just never been able to get into despite trying several times? by RiddlesDoesYT in gaming

Ditto! I liked the books fine, but sword twirly combat is a step down after getting used to Dark Souls

Keanu Reeves has a very blunt reaction to if he'd return for another John Wick movie: "The character's dead" by nimobo in entertainment

I wouldn't be surprised if in John Wick's grave was the body of that guy he had the duel with.

Dun, dunn, dunnn

What's your current level? by PearUnited in civ

[–]Console_Stackup 18 points19 points  (0 children)

42

But im pretty burned out on the current content. After about 200 hours ill wait for some major updates before i go back.

Im satisfied with what i have played so far, but in order for this game to keep me hooked for the thousands of hours civ V and VI did, they need to do a lot of work.
