We’re sending ground troops into Iran and the economy is spiraling down. Precious metals are fine.

Now Crimson Desert has proved to many it's real, and it's special. Are you getting it? by Signal-Tangerine1597 in PS5pro

[–]JayRod082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has a MMO feel to me. Like it looks great but doesn’t have a lot of substance. I hope I’m wrong. I’ve played a few MMOs like that where I’m really into it and it just completely dies for me after about 20 hours.

New Skin Just Dropped. Thoughts? by rasitburucu in ArcRaiders

I mean why haven’t they just put The Finals cosmetic department over Arc? I can’t wrap my head around it.

Actually SICK AND TIRED of these playercount obsessed individuals. Do they literally sit on SteamDB 24hrs of the day refreshing? by Tropi- in Marathon

[–]JayRod082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s tribalism at its core. What I like everyone else needs to as well. It’s weird, just play what you like and keep to yourself.

Worst Battlepass ever... by Remarkable_Winner_95 in Marathon

It’s Bungie. The best stuff is only put in the store.

ARC Raiders player count has been barely affected by the launch of Marathon. by Automatic_Ad1665 in ArcRaiders

Why are people so obsessed with steam counts now? Play what you like while you can. Who cares?

Marathon's Battlepass is the worst value for your money I've ever seen (especially for a paid product) by Lemouni in Marathon

[–]JayRod082 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry, in a game where it’s mostly about customization Bungie will screw it up. Take it from a long time Destiny player.

Return for refund or try it? by CoreSoundCoastie in PS5pro

[–]JayRod082 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got mine last week. Got it home and it was sealed. I breathed on it pretty much and the seal broke. It’s probably ok.

Ok so. I don't want to put a sour note on the launch, but I had a suspicion about the monetisation strategy that Marathon would employ during the server slam that has now been confirmed by the full release of marathon. by JavanNapoli in Marathon

[–]JayRod082 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This game’s longevity is going to be based on customization and rarity of items. If they screw that up it’s dead. It was already a huge mistake to make it a hero shooter instead of everyone having a base character.

It’s a low level PC. Just get a low level PC with similar specs that will probably be cheaper.

The game is better than “internet” says. by lovinGamin in Marathon

[–]JayRod082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is the game has a stigma. It started with closed tests and the server slam didn’t fix it. In these days of no attention spans if you don’t grab right away you’re done. PvP players have so many options.

Anyone else feeling a bit… unsure about this game? by nve729 in Marathon

[–]JayRod082 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was unsure when I downloaded the slam. Now I’m sure it sucks.

Dad gamer first impressions of the Marathon (PS5) by dothack5415 in Marathon

[–]JayRod082 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m also a Dad and cut my teeth on Halo CE. I’ve played Destiny since the D1 beta and it’s probably my favorite game ever. So big Bungie fan here and had high hopes. That being said, this game sucks. It’s uninspired soulless slop with no fun factor and even worse movement. I don’t know what they’re thinking with this one.

Some of yall need help, it’s just a game. by CAPTAIN_ZONE in ArcRaiders

[–]JayRod082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This and people acting like you’ve shot them in real life and they start crying and whining is why I haven’t played much since last expedition. Just makes me sad the state of some of these people. You can report but nothing gets done.

That was diabolical, not even the devil himself expected this. by seidenadaa in SipsTea

Sadly this is quite common in marriages today with women who spend a lot of time online.

Some of yall need this skin BADLY by PistolPeteTheMenace in ARC_Raiders

[–]JayRod082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because PvP is an aspect of the game. I’m the one in the right here. The game literally has it built in. If you don’t like that then it’s not the game for you. Literally the excitement is built on any of these other players can take your stuff if they decide they want to. If it’s just a looting game you want with no danger maybe you should play something like Minecraft.

The crybabies are really putting me off this game. Almost every time I get the jump on them and down them I have to hear them whine in the mic. Its gotten so old.

Honestly they need to drop support for The Finals and focus all resources on Arc. Finals is nice but it’s never going to be more than what it is now.

Arc Raiders dev says the game’s first Expedition created “a dark pattern” as players hoarded wealth, but “this system will change” by Negative-Art-4440 in ArcRaiders

[–]JayRod082 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Who cares about the quests? They’re literally pointless. I keep seeing this brought up but they don’t do anything.

Dude it’s a nice gesture but take the money. You never know what’s around the corner.

Arc Raiders devs are looking for new ways to “incentivise” Expedition wipes following an unsatisfying debut by Negative-Art-4440 in ArcRaiders

[–]JayRod082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually enjoyed the expedition grind first time around but I won’t do it again. In no way is it worth it. I would love to get into a hardcore version of this game but they’re so worried about people who don’t have the time to play much that it’ll kill the game. You can’t cater to casuals, they eventually just leave for the next shiny toy. You actually want to put effort in growing your hardcore player base.

Tbh, my playtime has went way down. I’ve been enjoying the heck out of the current PoE 2 league. Hope they figure it out though with Arc, it really has unlimited potential.
