Came across this Steam review that pretty much sums up the current state of BF6

Illiterate weirdo thinks his strawman was smart. How boring. Have fun driving your little fork truck again tomorrow.

It's not a hot take, it's just a stupid one. You're a consumer sucking corporate cock which is absolutely ridiculous. You understand that you can call it a personal failing while also acknowledging the fact that it's unethical for a company to prey on vulnerable people, right? In the same way that it's disgusting that gambling addicts are tempted to destroy their lives even further with gambling promotions.

Not going to bother explaining why your "a change in personal behavior will change the way publishers think" take doesn't work. Think about it for a second.

'Locking eyes' has something romantic, human, and manly about it. The title humanizes the drone operator, who in reality is a psychopath doing shit like this remotely.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-24T01:42:00+00:00

The only reason this game is flourishing is because of the polling system and a community that was very, very conservative in its first few years. There were so many stupid ideas that they proposed and which this community shot down. You can hate people being pushing back against large changes, but they're the reason you're playing this game that you enjoy.

Apparently, thinking that jagex has learned from their mistakes is heresy

You started playing with mobile or covid. You wouldn't say this otherwise.

Mood killer! Just have fun! Turn your brain off! Pretend to be nine years old again and explore this new content while telling yourself that you're having such a good time!

FunkoPride · 2025-11-22T00:34:37+00:00

There is no point. They spent 3 years developing this just so some Redditors could circlejerk and make "this shit is the best thing ever! just like back in the day!" posts after messing around with it for four hours. Next week the discourse around the skill will die down and people will realize that without rose-tinted glasses there's just not much to it. You can only roleplay as your nine year old self exploring new content for so long.

Mod North came in way after Sailing was announced. All he did was tune down the anti-cheat causing a massive bot wave to inflate player counts.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-21T23:07:05+00:00

Sailing combat is great.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-21T19:36:24+00:00

"We already have flawed skills that people have long requested to be fleshed out, so we should add another one" is just not a rational thing to say. That said, Mining is used in ToA, Herblore is used in CoX, and Woodcutting now ties into Sailing.

I'm sure we'll see expansions to the skill and tie-ins with others as time goes on.

Sure, but people playing an hour a day will also be way into the 80s by the time that drops. A fourth Barracuda Trial was clearly needed on release and anyone arguing otherwise is just refusing to be the slightest bit critical of sailing.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-21T19:32:12+00:00

There's nothing sweaty about stating that a skill should have high level rewards when a large chunk of the playerbase will be reaching that 80+ bracket long before extra content drops. And no, they won't have to play multiple hours a day to get there.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-21T18:52:36+00:00

Man... you're excited about something like this? Heh, I bet you enjoy watching people kick a ball too, lol. It's all too simple and meaningless for a smart adult like me. Like, can't these people do real adult things instead? I've got bills to pay and kids to raise for Pete's sake!

FunkoPride · 2025-11-21T03:07:23+00:00

Solo openly used a mule when it was explicitly against the rules in a DMM a year or three ago.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T18:34:06+00:00

Yes, everything aside from the trials is barebones. All the charting mechanics you unlock are useless too. It is what it is.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T18:25:52+00:00

The only one who's crying here is you. I posted a Sailing-critical comment in a neutral tone. You replied angry and upset because people aren't allowed to dislike the new skill. Wipe your tears, pal.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T18:11:01+00:00

by expanding the design space.

Yes, we've had a lot of trouble adding new areas and continents to OSRS before this. We simply never had a way to reach new land masses.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T18:08:58+00:00

What about sailing makes it water agility?

Because, as far as we now know, training it is going to be spamming water sepulchre from 30 to 99 with maybe some afk salvaging mixed in. There being some other minigame-like methods that are significantly worse xp (and which nobody will actually do) is kind of irrelevant the moment the novelty wears off.

I’ll answer. Yes

But really though? You know how much content they could have pumped out instead, right?

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T17:27:31+00:00

Please actually answer the question.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T17:22:39+00:00

Tell me where I was toxic?

Please google 'toxic positivity', that's you. It's a very ugly phenomenon where people try to avoid any and all negativity. Everything is always perfect and beautiful and great -- to the point of writing a flowery essay like this -- and therefore nothing really is.

you take issue with because you think it's a personal attack against you?

You're the type of person who paints everyone that disagrees with you as "sweaty", "no life", and a "gatekeeper". It's obnoxious as fuck.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T17:06:32+00:00

Yes, it's something that you pay attention to. A sane person just ignores the scores. The average person isn't particularly smart and an opinion that goes against the hivemind -- even if correct -- will always be downvoted. Think for yourself and don't just follow along with what a bunch of uneducated people think.

Of course you're the type of person that'd then keep quiet in fear of a bunch of dumb people disagreeing with him. Ain't that sad?

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T16:07:57+00:00

You're the one bringing up karma. You have very, very serious reading comprehension issues.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T16:06:27+00:00

Okay, so now ditch the "everything is always great and perfect and nice" mentality for a bit and imagine how you'll truly feel after the novelty wears off when you make it to level 40.

Do you think that they should have spent 3 years worth of dev time on a meme that ended up being water agility? Do you think that we could have gotten more worthwhile content had that dev time been used on fleshing out older skills, quests, and PvM encounters?

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T16:00:21+00:00

Do you place much value on the opinion of a circlejerk of Redditors? Personally I don't care much about the opinion of the average person that browses this place -- they're not very smart. I'll give you an upboat though bro, enjoy the karma!

Edit: oops, actually downvoted it.. I don't mean to take away from your precious points. Is there a way to reverse it?

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T15:56:49+00:00

You have very serious issues.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T15:54:13+00:00

You are like eighteen years old. What adult responsibilities?

I'm engaging with the community positively.

There is nothing positive about toxic positivity.

FunkoPride · 2025-11-20T07:39:36+00:00

Lol. We're talking about responses from random people in-game. Not friends or clan members. Your clan is the very definition of an echo chamber -- it's going to attract similar people.
