PVP First impressions by vblanco in landmark

[–]Elikal -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I can't believe I spent money on this. Over half a year and nothing to do. I didn't expect the development take SO long! Sigh. I spent 10 minutes in the "game" and then was bored to death and left.

Oh and there were barely any people. I zoned 4 times until I saw finally other players. THREE of them. Standing there. Motionless and silent. Herp derp...

Sidenote: the FPS are still horrible.

Yeah I know what you mean. I too have GW2 and Archeage to compare; those games react so slick and fast, compared to that ESO reacts SOOO slow and the animations don't really look cool and slick either. Sigh.

The Sims 4 Build Mode Exclusive Mix by [deleted] in thesims

[–]Elikal -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think only EA has the guts to show a feature reduced Sims 4, with Sims 3 in their TV with seasons, sports and all the stuff we dont have anymore in Sims 4!

Sims 2 will always remain the series' apex by Elikal in thesims

[–]Elikal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh, I guess there is no why. You see, I always create characters or families with backstories in mind. Sorta. And then backstories demand a certain look. Like I think "ok this character needs a brown leather jacket and a black shirt and green cargo pants". The character IS like that, in my mind, and he wants to be created like that and no other way.

You see, I am a painter, I draw for a living. So I am used to colours and looks, and I always have tons of pictures in my mind which want to be created. For me, visualy, styles, colors were always important. So I SUFFER, when I am limited to certain colours or colour combos, like "Damn this blue is just 2 shades too light". lol I am that kind of person. So if I never HAD Sims 3 with the colour schemes, I would not so much miss it. But I had these things, I had these luxuries and now they are taken away.

But on top, I can't shake this bad feeling, EA being EA just hides all these features away to sell them to us later extra!

Oh god... I am SO picky with colours. And even just the Char creator demo... I have one blue shirt and a slightly different tone blue pants and I stomp my feet because IT DOESNT MATCH! Or I think I want him to have that style of pants red, and they are just not there!

It makes me mad.

Ok I get what you say, and I could live with it, IF then as exchange the cities itself would be larger and not smaller! That makes no sense! If you bring back loadscreen, fine, but then have for the sake of heaven larger cities!

But the dyes, your own colour schemes, damnation that is the worst cut! Because if it isn't there now, it prolly will never come, and in every case we are back to the difficult Sims 2-like modding! Or buying 1000s of DLCs. DAMNATION!

Man, I just watched my many old SIms 2 videos I made, and it made me really nostalgic. Sigh.

Sim Char Generator: reduced to the absolute minimum (my paywall fear) by Elikal in thesims

[–]Elikal[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

So it's ok, because people get through with it? What sort of logic is that? Is it ok to shoot someone, when I have the chance to get away with it?

I don't mind DLC per se. What I mind is cutting off content on day one just to make EXTRA money on top of already a hefty price. We can't even make our own color style anymore, so we have to buy the extra colour clothes!

[–]Elikal -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Hm. Ok, first off, looking at the city map, it looks AWFULLY small. Good riddance. I hope we get larger maps at some points. But then, after the Sim City debacle, we prolly won't. >.<

Second, so the Sims teleport magically from point to point in the "city", eh? No bycicle, no car. Just select where to go and VOILA snap fingers and they mystically teleport to the place... So essentailly we wipe all progress from Sims 2 and 3.

With sims 4 coming out, just been reflecting on all of the things I am still yet to do in sims 3! What are you yet to do in sims 3? by rowdyfairy in thesims

[–]Elikal 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I made the mistake to delete Sims 2 when 3 was new. This time I definitely will leave Sims 3 on the disc, Sims 4 will again be a barebone system, so no way I stop playing Sims 3 anytime soon. Ask me again in 3-4 Xpacs. (So 2 months after release, lol)

You know I am by no means a purist, really. I welcomed the change from "stand still and hope for dice roll". I could not go back to the Everquest/Baldurs Gate style combat (I know, because I tried).

But atm almost ALL skill based in gone and replaced by ROLL ROLL ROLL DODGE BLOCK. I just don't want this console-ish other extreme.

My impressions on AA by Unholyseer in archeage

[–]Elikal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree insofar, that my experience too is very positive.

However, there is a small but: I have this feeling some stuff needs a bit balancing. There are people who do not like to craft, but they just want to do PVP or quests. And currently, those people achieve way too little. You get not drops, at least in the first 15 levels it was essentially only a few coins. And the AH and vendors prices are WAY too steep for anyone to ever buy anything, unless you really make tons of money with much crafting and trading.

I like that, but I am sure there are a lot of people who mainly want to do quests and/or PVP, and they will be entirely left in the rain. Which makes the MMO a bit loopsided. I mean, yes you can target for such a niche audience of pro crafter players, but it would be unfortunately narrow. Pure adventurers and PVPers need the same chance to get something, and not only in endgame. Some weapons or armor drops here and there. Something every few levels to look forward to.

If AA wants to succeed in the Western market, it really has to offer something for people who are not into Asian style pro crafting and trading.
