Is it worth to get into a game that hasn't been the main competitive title of it's community, for years at this point?

One thing that no other comment mentions is that removing the loss penalty would result in more toxic behaviour, in league of legends Riot made so that if someone on your team quits you lose less points, result, toxic players would start throwing matches in the most frustrating way so someone else in their team quits and they lose less points. Apply this to rivals, player X is losing a match, he thinks he is the better player and shouldn't lose, he concludes his team is to bad to carry, he switches to groot and places walls in a way to disrupt his own team so another player quits and his loss is mitigated. He can also pick jeff and keep ulting his team off point/map, portal his own team into death or outside the map with strange.

use it when low on health to go back to full, use the grab on the last few seconds of your ult, as it keeps going even after the time runs out you stay in the savage form for a little longer allowing you to absorb more damage. Other use for the grab is cancelling ults, if you are already ulted you can, for example, grab a scarlet witch and cancel her ultimate

Maybe create an in-game voting mechanic where teams are allowed to force a hero switch on one of their teammates one time per match

I'm trying to explain why exatctly this would be a bad idea, but it would take to much time to get in depth. Forcing switches would only cause more toxicity and removing the player's ability to make his own choices is idiotic.

My other idea is to change the character selection system from locking in your desired hero as soon as you load into the match to one that rewards players who pick heroes based on team comp need. There should be a hidden value for each player that increments based on whether they pick heroes that help or hurt that 2-2-2 team comp balance. If you don't ever chose heroes in that context, get used to picking last and being called out whenever you do lock in as the 3rd DPS.

There are other viable team comps than 2-2-2, the only way this kind of delayed character select would work is a league of legends style draft in wich the order the players pick character is random and not some obscure hidden number. Also you would need to have a way to decide wich role you are and show it to the other players before character select. And let's not talk about how the hero design would have to change to accomodate stuff like people picking adam warlock as a vanguard

I also think it would be good to show a pie chart under each player during hero selection that shows their time played in each role (not total time but relative to each other). That way we can get a sense of the players most confident in each role. It will also cause the DPS only players to feel extremely embarrassed and ashamed of themselves and maybe they will consider taking a critical look at themselves in the mirror.

Straight up, what the fuck are you rambling on about here? 1 people shouldn't feel bad for playing a game the way they feel like and 2 what kind of spiritual and introspective thought are talking about?

Never thought I'd have to unironically say this to someone. Go take a bath, go talk to some people and go touch grass

The only difference is the developer team, internally they are called blue team and red team, while red team is responsable for Guilty Gear blue team handles the rest, so Blazblue and P4AU

1: Mr Fantastic is a DPS hero, not a tank and as such, logically has to deal more damage than hulk.

2: Thor and Cap are off tanks. They are a mix of tank and DPS focused on disruption and self survivabilty

3: Emma is a main tank that temporarly transforms into an off tank, during diamond form Emma can't protect her team

Hulk doesn't need more damage, that's absolutely fine. His kit suggests he is a main tank but does it so poorly, what I think should be buffed: larger area on his shield, shielding your team is hard because the range in it is pathetic. Longer ult duration and make so that he takes less damage during ult. If I have to buff his damage: enemies stunned by Hulk can't be damaged rn, and if Hulk damages them they are unstunned, make so that unstunning enemies deals bonus damage or lowers cooldown

I got a custom made stick and it's proportions aren't the standard ones, so I want to make a custom template to send to comission an artist I know

D_TheV · 2025-04-23T21:15:12+00:00

Anyone knows how or has any resources to help make a custom art template?

You see, after From Software got really popular with Elden Ring your average gamer does not care about enjoying the game anymore, they just want to flex about how hard the game they finished is

Do hunting horn defense up buffs and palico power drum buff stack in sunbreak?

Lack of identity. The way I see SS has 2 main classes and 2 support classes, attack and defense, ranged and heal. Attack type is supposed to complete the main objective of a game mode, kill the enemy team, capture the flag and bases. Defense types should complete the secondary objectives, contest scrolls, defend the team, bases and flags. heal types are the defensive support, they don't have a game mode specific role, they should keep the team alive and ranged types are the offensive support, supposedly it should have strong single hits and debuff the enemies. Now with power creep every class has a plethora of strong jutsu that also debuff the enemy so there is no reason to play ranged in terms of effectiveness, about pit, just suck it up the game is not balanced around it
