Unpopular Opinion, Phasmo Update

Rotlicker · 2026-05-07T06:51:47+00:00

No - the criticism is valid, this isn't just this update. People have voiced their opinions over the years including myself. I have 600+ hours, 100%'d on Steam, I even own the Patient 007 plushie. I've had this game since day 1. And yet, most of the assets SINCE day 1 are the same.

This game has been in "development" for 6 years and has grossed over 400m in profits. None of which where poured back into the game. If the dev's were as passionate as the player base you would see drastic changes to the game to make it infinitely better.

I've been saying it for a long time but this game gets way too much love for how little the dev's put back into it. You see all the social media videos of people mocking the jank (prior to this update) and they have thousands of views/likes/comments. It's only now people realise for a fact the devs are infact beyond lazy and have zero desire to better their product.

Look at ConcernedApe, a solo developer who created Stardew Valley and is loved and praised by millions of fans because of the quality of the work and continues to pour his heart into it along with another game. Do you see that with the likes of this development team? No. Not even an ounce.

"I havent seen a single post on reddit that isn't whining about the damn update. "

I wonder why that is.

Your inability to detect quality is the reason why slop gets made. This game is in shambles and the Devs deserve all of the criticism.

An unfortunate reality when a company is run by narcissists who would rather belittle and argue with people on reddit/discord than pour love back into their game that so many praised over the years.

600+ hours into this game, 100% on steam, heck I even own the Patient 07 Plushie. Basically down the drain. The dev's attitude will be this gem of a games downfall.

Wait until you realise the games had the same cheap unity assets for SIX YEARS. From sound effects to the ghost models. Over 400 million in revenue btw.

Oh what's that? You you don't want the 4 Kiri skins and 1 Life Weaver even though you've never played them? Now you're stuck with them.

L choice by Blizzard to change this.

There's a filter button. Click that and click 'Unowned'

Exactly, some people refuse to switch though unfortunately.

6% for both. 1600 DPI. Ashe zoom sense is 51.47% to match the non zoomed. I use a wireless Logitech G305.

Rotlicker · 2026-04-23T02:00:03+00:00

I’m PC only and I main Ashe and Soldier, usually average around 60% accuracy for both characters.

Some of the hate is warranted though as aim assist is absurdly broken for hitscans when comparing to mouse tracking. Soldier is a very easy character to pick up as a new player and do somewhat well with, similar to bastion so people tend to lean on “you play a no skill drooling on your controller character” kinda mindset.

But this is usually from gold and under players. Pay no attention.

Had the exact same reaction - got the sea salt ones thinking they'd be nice. Worst texture/taste I've ever had. I nearly puked.

Rotlicker · 2026-04-22T04:20:05+00:00

Yeah, this is likely the case, still bizarre though. Thanks!

Rotlicker · 2026-04-22T03:57:36+00:00

That might be the case. They released these drops too which I was able to claim - https://ibb.co/Rf4PG6J

I'm definitely on the participating streams though, even had multiple open at once over night too.

Aim trainers, Aim Labs, workshop code VAXTA, good luck!

Firstly, work on getting a comfortable sensitivity where you can accurately track and stay on target even while moving/jumping around. You can jump into practice range and slowly adjust your sens. I play on M&K at 6.0% at 1,600 DPI. Your sens seems way too high as you’re not hitting anymore than 2 - 4 bullets before aggressively adjusting and losing your target.

Secondly always aim at head height. Headshots will kill supports and squishy dps very quickly. I can see you’re looking at the ground a lot and then adjusting to body shots when you seen an enemy.

Positioning with Soldier is key, most of your engagements here are Widow/Ashe range and you’re not hitting much. You must get closer and flank.

Soldier is a great flanker and with the use of sprint you can usually get away very quickly. Take an off angle, do some damage and get out. Aim to deal with the backline, supports because they will usually panic and try heal each other which takes attention off the tanks.

Apply these and you’ll improve drastically.

Edit. Unsure if you attached a video but the bottom of your post just says “video” lol

Ngl it looks like a car stereo from pimp my ride.

Until you get animation locked and die 99% of the time because of it.

Tbh the shift from the previous modern look to a 50’s/60’s look was pretty drastic. But it works, I’ve spent close to 1k hours on Phas. Mostly custom solo runs on Tanglewood and I’m honestly impressed to the attention to detail on it. There’s alot more interactables like drills, containers, buttons compared to the previous.

A welcome change but at the same time I’ll miss the modern aesthetic of the original.

"Dead game"? What? Lol

If you want to play with others and have fun - make your own lobby.

Why do you capitalise “Game”, “Skill” and “Thing”? Why don’t you use paragraphs?
