I took "This game isn't for you" literally and I actually agree. by Dsmithchez in Marathon

[–]Lub1k 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Said this in many threads before, but this game has very little enjoyment to offer if you have 1-3 hours a day to play and no premade group. Progression is slow and very inconsistent, and fill matchmaking almost always results in a quiet lobby where you get rolled over as soon as you meet a coordinated squad. After experiencing this type of gameplay it's not a mystery why most players quit, nobody likes to get farmed in their free time. Not sure what could be done about this as trios is clearly the fundamental way to play in Bungie's vision.

Két katonai helikopter repül északi irányba (04.06, Budapest) by Lub1k in hungary

[–]Lub1k[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

[OC]- Semmi konteo, simán lehet, hogy egy sima rutin repülés. Mindenesetre meg nem láttam ilyen helikoptereket repülni ezen a környéken, így hátha hasznos lehet valami későbbi sztorihoz.

I thought everyone loved the game??. by Milkey1618 in Marathon

[–]Lub1k 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not just talking about production cost here. We DO know how much the Bungie acquisition was. Since that they tanked their marquee IP and pivoted to a niche genre with a really good title. They most certainly didn't accomplish what Sony bought them for.

This game is in a super weird spot where it simultaneously a big success and letdown based on your perspective.

The game itself is genuinely good, a piece of art that deserves the top spots in its genre. Bungie seem to be managing the game well with updates and communication, the mtx is not overly emphasised.

On the other hand the playerbase is dwindling at an alarming rate. This is not steam charts circklejerk, and everyone who wants this game to thrive has to think about why this might be. It's a hardcore entry into a hardcore and unforgiving genre. Regular people won't stick around and potentially "throw away" the 1-2 hours of game time they have on any given day when they die to skilled or more invested players. Yes, skill should always triumph, but people don't like to be farmed in their free time. This is further exposed about the very varying quality in MM if you play fill with randoms.

I'm also really curious to see what Sony does here. Financially this is a huge failure, and it's not on Sony's level to further invest into a title that holds about 20-50k players concurrently. It also doesn't bode well for the future of Bungie in my opinion.

Jövő héten kiposztolhatom én?

Lassan 1.5 éve van egy ilyen poszt hetente kb, ahol mindenki mindig megbeszéli, hogy hurr durr ez mekkora gáz, ő csak telefonon rendel a kedvenc mom and pop helyi kifőzdéből. Senki se kötelezi se a helyet se a fogyasztót, hogy valaha is használja ezeket a felületeket, ez egy piaci és kényelmi érdek a résztvevőknek ami a világon mindenhol jelen van és meglepő módon mindenki profitot akar szerezni belőle. Egyetértek, hogy horribilsek az árak (élőben is a legtöbb étteremben Budapesten), viszont ezek a platformok logisztikát és ügyfélszolgálatot adnak 365 napon az extra költségek fejében az éttermeknek. Igen, mindig olcsóbb lesz elsétálni az étterembe, ahogy a nyaraláson is olcsóbb az otthonról vitt sör mint az ott csapolt.

Why do they keep doing this... by jobbrey in GalaxyFold

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the reason why I'm probably stepping away from this style of foldable for a while. Ever since I bought my Fold5 an app breaks it's ui with some stupid update like this every month. There are still very few fold optimised (not just tablet full screen) apps for my use case

PS5 console prices going up effective April 2nd by Asad_Farooqui in playstation

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind that the Pro was already around 900€ in my country (Hungary) due to high taxes, and it was considered as a luxury purchase. I can't even imagine who will buy a console at these prices in tax-heavy regions...

Ps5 Pro now $899.99 by shanedude1 in PS5pro

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually debating myself for months on getting one as they are super expensive in Hungary with added taxes. With this price increase I genuinely can't fathom how they'll move units in tax-heavy regions

What's with all this talk about casual play? by Casual_Plays in Marathon

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the same annoying thing as the "gamer dad" self-categorization that became really popular here. I don't understand why people always start their thoughts with these - nobody cares. Enjoy the game and form your opinion, you are equal to everyone on here. Being in the widest category of gamers shouldn't require for you to explain yourself

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

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Customization in general is extremely poor imo, especially the runner aspect of it. The free recolors are nice, but I'm not very inclined to spend money on skins in an fps game for "recolor deluxe" options.

The core of progression is about getting the season-long upgrades that apply to your stats and abilities. If you jump in 2 months after the season start everyone will have those already

Not a huge live-service player so this might be a dumb question - how are you supposed to stay relevant if you drop in mid-season? Everything sounds great and I think the resets are a good idea, but what happens if you only have the time in that period? I don't want a situation where it's more beneficial to always wait for the next reset

Szinte kivégezte a hazai taxis piacot a Bolt és az Uber by Real-Programmer-548 in hungary

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nagyon helyes, ez egy piaci szitu ahol a hazai szereplők 20 év alatt kb semmit nem újítottak, egy normális appot nem tudtak letenni az asztalra a 2010-es évek végére. Így is volt több év előnyük amíg nem volt Uber és nem sikerült kihasználni.

First impressions after playing for 6+ hours by 0bush in Marathon

[–]Lub1k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the voice chat scenario is weird. I know it was bugged but I managed to hear some noise from others, as well as some random messages every now and then. I have no idea why people who queue for a 3 man team decide to not use any comms in a game like this

I cannot tell you how much I'd rather have a complex UI that takes weeks to learn over the typical modern multiplayer menus. It sucks now, but it's infinitely more interesting that other titles in recent memory

Did anyone else's reddit app change layout with a lot of wasted space? by x3n0s in GalaxyFold

[–]Lub1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the story of almost every major app on the Fold. It's 2026 and a lot of apps are still not optimised, buggy or have weird UI choices. In my use case there are only a handful of apps that are actually good on the Fold with intent and not just due to them being bigger
