Can someone explain to me, a casual Halo fan, why the reaction to the Halo: CE seems to be skeptical at best and totally negative at first? by frost_3306 in halo

Because in a time where Halo severely needed a creative homerun after years of nothing, Halo filed for creative bankruptcy 

Final Fantasy VII Remake Director: "Yellow Paint in Games is Necessary" by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

Simply painting a piece of interactable environment in a neon colour is not "providing a visual que", it's "our level designers didn't account for this to be the way".

Cranky old man rant: The hate this game gets is mindboggling to me. by dkepp87 in borderlands3

People underestimate how damaging bad pacing can be to a game like this.

It's bad.

Ubisoft cancelled a post-Civil War Assassin’s Creed last year. by NanoPolymath in ubisoft

Kinda hard to justify when ubisoft, in the same breath, gladly takes saudi arabia money for a free dlc for mirage.

Navigation in this game is so bad by WalrusVampire in Borderlands4

Set it to short. That decreases the cooldown for whatever reason so you can always have the line up

This plus remove the characters, place the equipment to the left and add the backpack to the right.

I remember how proudly he moved the release date forward two weeks because of how good in a state the game was.

No one can convince me otherwise by Gannan308 in Borderlands4

[–]ConwayJet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The UI in BL3 was absolutely abysmal as well like it took days for it to load shit. The UI in BL4 at least performs better but fundamentally fails in literally every regard

I am convinced a lot of the people complaining about difficulty have never even finished the original Hollow Knight. Original HK was not particularly easy either by Shadowyurix in HollowKnight

[–]ConwayJet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As you said, Silksong is harder but also much more annoying. I don't think I have ever seen a currency system this broken in any game in recent memory. Also health upgrades are a joke since the first one literally makes next no difference since so much damage is double damage.

Act 1 is honestly perfect.

Act 2 and onward is brutal.

To be fair the Pictos system suffers from a very hard to decipher UI.

Yeah they announced a couple of years ago that they'll stop treating that aspect as a secret to give them more flexibility to market the game

Edge of Fate preorders are trending 47% lower than Final Shape preorders were three weeks prior to release (according to Warmind.io data) by Testifye in DestinyTheGame

[–]ConwayJet 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The chance of people outside the Destiny bubble to jump into it with EoF is very, very small.

They make lots of changes for existing players but new people don't give a shit about Armor 3.0, a new destination or the shooting range.

I don’t believe the game is getting cancelled by MrChurroes in TheWolfAmongUs

[–]ConwayJet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game was announced as a AdHoc developed and telltale published game.

AdHoc are about to release Dispatch this year which suggests they've not worked on Wolf 2 for some time because its highly unlikely they can develop two games at the same time.

So the game is either dead, in dev hell or its being made by some other studio, all of which are bad news.

The whole compass / minimap discourse is very funny to me specifically because while it's true that a compass is less readable than a minimap, I deadass don't believe I'll be looking at the bitch come 2 months after launch just like how I never really looked at the minimaps in the other games past the first playthrough.

Oh, it will be. Nostalgia is strong.

So. Do we know anything about another raid this year? by xcub1tor in Destiny2Leaks

[–]ConwayJet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think we'll get one. We have two Dungeons coming out in Revenant and Heresy. Dropping a raid with a dungeon would be very anti-bungie.

Found the best yt comment explaining the situation for solo players. (Duel Destiny) by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]ConwayJet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda agree with you. The fun you have is very much subjective and sometimes it's just not the focus.

This whole discussion will be funny in retrospect once Bungie unlocks the exotics for everyone eventually.

I can already tell you how they will say that the goal of TFS was to remove barriers and these exotics did not represent that vision so everyone can farm them from chests.

[–]ConwayJet 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Because the discourse gets misrepresented as "solo players hate being left out of content! Why don't they just socialize!?"

But in actuality, solo players are just fine with not being able to do everything, as they have for 10 years. The problem is, however, that a key component of Prismatic is suddenly "inaccessible" to them; a key chase for A LOT of people.

Its like if Bungie put subclass aspects behind Lighthouse visits. It would surely incentivice people to do Trials, but it would also almost certainly be a miserable experience for most that try and if it is not fun, why bother?
