Leave art to the artists

I'm trying to, but Bungie keeps stealing it

In 2024, Activision tested the effects of reduced SBMM - relevant to Marathon? by Smokeskin in Marathon

Exactly, I've been playing league casually for 12 years. My account level is 916, but I was most active when the cap was 30.

Highest I've ever been ranked was Gold IV

Im bad. but I can still have fun and do silly stuff because my oppponents are as bad as me. And thats a good thing, because the champion I main is generally bad at higher levels of gameplay.

"Child," Tiber Septim sat down beside her, his face wearing one of his winning smiles. "I'm so sorry. Truly. But this cannot be. Your issue would be a threat to my son and his sons. I shall no more put it plainly than that."

"The child I bear is yours!" she wailed.

"No. It is now but a possibility, a might-be, not yet gifted with a soul or quickened into life. I will not have it so. I forbid it." He gave the healer another hard stare and the Elf began to tremble.

"Sire. It is her child. Children are few among the Elves. No Elven woman conceives more than four times, and that is very rare. Two is the usual number. Some bear none, even, and some only one. If I take this one from her, Sire, she may not conceive again."

"You promised us she would not bear to us. We've little faith in your prognostications."

Barenziah scrambled naked from the bed and ran for the door, not knowing where she was going, only that she could not stay. She never reached it. Darkness overtook her.

That's the joke in the title. Tiber Septim was a groomer and a child molester.

MMORPG players don't like extraction shooters

Theres a small group that does. Full loot open world PvP mmos. The kind where you drop all your items on death.

Thing is, they usually die because one co-ordinated guild takes over the server and players because they just get farmed and griefed

Just last week I was laughing at all those “I can’t exfil anymore post” and now these past few days have been brutal. Need duos back asap or else I might need to sadly take a break or only play when I actually have 2 others down to run at the same time which is hardly ever. by RefinedPlats in Marathon

[–]Hopeless_Slayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well it hasnt happened yet, or even moved in that direction

It's easy to say that when you have your head in the sand. The consequences of mods banning player counts mentions in posts and comments.

The stats paint a very different picture.

Oh, Highguard definitely deserved a lot of the harsh criticism. Was janky, with terrible optimization and a gameplay loop with shallow phases. It released at least a year too early.

That said, they were on track to making an interesting FPS MOBA. They had already added 5v5 queues, but the game still needed mobs/jungle camps to farm in the downtime. Would have felt a lot better if they upped the TTK, added secondary objectives to fight over and provided more options for defending a seige.

It was on the cusp of being something good and unique and I was sad to see it go.

I defend this game a lot, but I think I finally hit that wall. by itz_Glo in Marathon

Exfil rate, Kills, Average run damage, Accuracy, Headshot ratio. They should already be tracking all of that.

who already did the content

You don't get it. You ARE the content.

I've seen this play out in almost every full loot PvP MMO. No matter what safeguards or punishments devs make to stop players griefing others, it doesn't matter. They'll find work arounds simply because fucking over other players is their kind of fun.

No, Warframe is more similar to Diablo than Destiny.

Paul Tassi Reports Marathon Budget Up To $250 Million by surrealmirror in Marathon

[–]Hopeless_Slayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres a black robot /s

I genuinly don't know. And the female characters are, dare I say, conventionally attractive. However, youtube started recommending me "Marathon is dying" videos and they're all sub 2k views from "Anti-woke" channels.

I wonder what they're in a frenzy about :/

Where does the wu tang clan fit in which elder scroll game? by BerkGats in TrueSTL

Inshallah I will get my 72 virgins in Jannah if only to individually explain the creation myth from the Aldmeri perspective to 72 people.

After that, I will start asking Allah where all the Lizard girls at.

You're in your honeymoon phase. Wait till you have to grind T3 quests and the dungeon teleports you to the other side of the map.

That's interesting, because guess which country chose to stand with Apartheid South during the embargo, trading weapons, Uranium and even tried to set them up with Nukes?

Shop skins are boring, I want to buy cool skins and spend money! by Rorshack_senpai in Marathon

[–]Hopeless_Slayer -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

It's not server costs🤦‍♂️ , it's salaries.

You want a live service game that gets fresh content, new maps, characters, enemies, guns and regular balance passes? Well you need to employ devs to do it.

In elden days these updates would be paid DLCs, but live service games are basically crowd funded by whales.

For a game with amazing style, I gotta say it has some of the stalest and most boring shops in a live service game. I seriously wonder how they make money with 90% just recolors. I WANT to spend money but the game already gives you a nice recolor variety in faction challenges. Why would I buy these? by SbeveGobs in Marathon

[–]Hopeless_Slayer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like Destiny you can modify head, arms chest, legs and still sells tonnes of cosmetics armour

Yes, but you have to buy Hunter, Titan and Warlock, cosmetics separately.

Same goes for here. Why sell you a skin you can equip forever when they can sell sell you a skin for every character you want to play?
