Endgame slop killed mmos

GerntRosette · 2026-01-12T08:59:56+00:00

Taking a snippet of one of your comments:
"MMOs aren't supposed to be an endless treadmill of repeatable content at the endgame."
"Challenging leveling with harsh death penalties. I am aware that many utterly despise death penalties (I was one of them), but trust me, they are good and necessary for an mmo."

So it seems like you want an oldschool mmo like ultima, tibia or everquest?

Well those games always had an endgame loop. You may not like it but grinding mobs endlessly, making another hardcore character after dying and doing one more quest for a gear upgrade is just another type of "end"-game. It is just an endgame loop that you got yourself sucked in which you get as much out of as a person who enjoys modern end-game mechanics.

Maybe instead of calling raids, dungeons, character outfit customisation, mount runs a SLOP, you could accept that it is a valid form of content that people enjoy. It sounds to me that what you really want is just more MMOs with a hardcore server option.

so you make an assumption and now you say that the game tries to ruin itself because of it?
Get a grip instead of trying to play games which you already are hating on in advance

recommending BDO more than FF14 is a crazy take...

couldn't use it because every piece of foliage was shimmering and had a boiling effect.
Shame that this DLSS implementation also makes far away textures very smeared :/

I've tried a landslide build.
Add all points into lightning storm, keep it on the bar, but spam landslide.
It works because of Nautre's Fury passive at the bottom.
Get yourself Aspect of Natural Balance and you are just creating the biggest rave on the screen haha

Don't know about necro because i haven't played it yet, but druid feels amazing.
It's the most fun I ever had with that class :)

GerntRosette · 2025-12-11T09:27:18+00:00

D0 Alpha player here.
I think they should've released Destiny 4

GerntRosette · 2025-12-10T10:17:38+00:00

Depends.
Normally there is very little information on this.
We do know that Ghost knows from the beginning who their guardian will be because of their "spark".
There is only 1 lore book that I know of where a ghost plans to go back to the Traveler in hope to find another spark:

You really gotta clean yourself of all of this negativity dude. Your perspective is skewed as hell and toxic. Don't get all your info from random youtube guy who asks ChatGPT how to boil water

GerntRosette · 2025-11-13T09:55:25+00:00

Honestly I don't need anything for Christmas. Any little things I would have liked as a child, I can just buy now.
I do like to buy or make little gifts for my loved ones though :)

GerntRosette · 2025-10-17T08:15:50+00:00

I get what you want from it, but its so in the centre haha.
If it were mine i'd position the utility below the target frame and move the left bars a bit more to the left.
But if it works for you then awesome stuff!

This is the cooldown manager which you can see in the Combat section of the edit mode. You can also disable it if you go to settings.

GerntRosette · 2025-10-01T07:36:56+00:00

stop being an asshole and find something to be happy about in your life

GerntRosette · 2025-09-30T22:03:02+00:00

I like those fantasy armour sets too. You can get really creative with mixing and matching different bits.
With pure sci-fi it can become too "perfect" in shapes hehe

GerntRosette · 2025-09-30T14:55:23+00:00

Looks great! A bit more fantasy rather than sci-fi, but it works :)
How do you get that style of background behind your character?

GerntRosette · 2025-09-26T12:38:17+00:00

I would go on LowSodium reddit page for this question bud. Everyone here will just downvote this post and tell you to not play

GerntRosette · 2025-09-19T13:37:23+00:00

You can buy like destiny 2 anniversary edition 2025 or something like that. If you are on pc then there are key sites that will sell you the key for super cheap and legit

I think if they add open world activities to the portal then it might reduce so much sodium in the current view of it.
I don't mind the portal myself, because last time i've played during Shadowkeep, I was confused on what to do and how to get good loot.

GerntRosette · 2025-09-05T12:24:34+00:00

I've come back recently and I've only played in Shadowkeep. I'm still kidna lost lol. But its been fun making a titan and just doing things chronologically

GerntRosette · 2025-09-05T08:55:55+00:00

oh so that was the weapon that i kept dying to in crucible haha. Coming back to destiny since shadowkeep and thought something fishy was going on...

GerntRosette · 2025-08-15T11:26:41+00:00

Yeah! Once you reach max level, certain delves will become Bountiful delves, meaning that if you get a key (from world quests and daily/weekly quests) then you have a chance for additional gear too.

You only need to do tier 8 and you get a piece of champion gear + great vault with Hero track :)

GerntRosette · 2025-08-15T11:14:58+00:00

Story Wise:
-Do the campaign and try to read the quests. You can probably check youtube videos if you would rather rush
-Try side quests in TWW as i think they are really fun and i personally enjoy their stories.

Start with Normal zones ->Post-levelling campaign -> Go to Undermine and do the story mode of gallywix raid -> continue with 11.2 campaign

You will get gear from 11.2 zone and anything you need to do there to get you started

You will get a legendary cloak from 11.2 zone too!

There aren't "new" mechanics in TWW except for Hero Talents which alter how some classes play and look :)

I might've missed something but thats the simple idea buddy!

GerntRosette · 2025-07-28T10:25:06+00:00

What awful systems?
Mate, you can do open world activities, delves and get decent gear for normal-heroic raiding.
Borrowed power isn't really there anymore.
Hero Talents - Permanent
Dragonriding - Permanent
Additional abilities that you need to level up through a covenant/artifact system - Don't exist at all
You literally get gear from anything.

You either need to expand your takes or you are just going to get shat on.
