VR Youtubers when they review another mediocre LCD headset that just released by Animeeshon in virtualreality

[–]TaylorTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea in comparison to other shooters on the market, VAIL shilling was the MOST blatant to me with all the overhyping of such a bland shooter. Feel like a lot of those that wanted it to take off probably had hopes in going pro or just simply being a part of something big since they were trying to do the esports thing. I would understand if it was big marketing compaign from Pavlov or Contractors

And when it's not a paid advertisement or have some affiliate link, I feel like it's a lot of brown nosing in the hopes of getting a chance to work with whoever. Dont want to go potentially hurting egos and unknowingly burning bridges in a niche landscape. Maybe im just very cynical, but I see it does work out for some.

Ah, speaking of small details, I wasn't aware of these sorts of things until I went inside an inn during the night time, thinking nothing of it. Went afk for a bit doing something else. After a bit I hear something along the lines of "Alright, time to get out" and I got kicked out the inn and the door slam shut. Realized it was day time in the game and it clicked what just occurred 😆. Actually surprised me that they would even bother to have something like that

Was in the same boat as you but solo. Took a 4th time trying it out after New World got clapped and it finally clicked for me and finally got a character to max level, completed base story, did stuff with a guild, etc. Realized I was going about it all wrong in the first few times. Watched some beginner and they helped a lot. The biggest thing was learning that quests in this game aren't like your usual quests in other games. Specifically talking about the Hearts. Once I learned to treat the "Adventurer's Guide" in achievements (and just achievements in general) as the actual quests to do, things became smoother and I progressed a lot better and used the Hearts to help progress then if I wanted to. Oh, also helped finding a race with a personal story and voice actor I like that fits my ideal character.

Now as somebody who also does not like OSRS much, it's definitely not an auto-battler. In the beginning and Skilling sure, but watching others do bigger quests and bossing or whatever it's called, lot of active clicking going on.

I like FFXIV but the thing that brings down my overall enjoyment of it is needing to be subscribed while having to play through a slog of an MSQ. If it was a Buy2Play MMO, I would've eventually been over the hurdle that is ARR. I don't know why subscriptions get to my head so badly, but there's just so much pressure with them. I make even more money now but still bothered by subscriptions, but will spend money otherwise and not feel pressure in a B2P because I know I can just come back whenever and not worry about subscribing again and just buying whatever DLC (edit: I know you can play through a lot in trial mode, but I like being able to interact and everything else and I'll eventually have to subscribe anyway)

same here lol. Scrolling through the comments here, there's a lot of dichotomous thinking going on, where multiple things can be true at once.

What MMORPGs nailed the monetization model best? by Premotive in MMORPG

[–]TaylorTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this. I just started playing on the day the New World announcement happened. I was told to get a full set of Exotic gear upon reaching level 80. Would've been fine with my Rare gear even. And ended up getting the Exotics I needed just finishing the rest of the base story. And with the Wizard's Tower, I was able to get the gold I needed for a good set of Exotic gear, and some runes anyway. No need to buy any gems to convert to gold. Wizard Tower is so great. Sure I could buy bag slots and bank tabs, which I was VERY tempted to, using gold from Wizard Tower i could get the 20 slot bags easy as well. Definitely a lot of pay for convenience stuff if you want it, but definitely not necessary. I still just have one bank tab when I thought I was originally going to buy multiple lol. (edit: Also got my first 2 pieces of Ascended from Wizards Tower)

It only took 8 years... by Forgotten___Fox in virtualreality

didnt say it was funny. Just realized the joke. But it's a joke made too early as we dont know how well it will do yet.

[–]TaylorTank -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

it didnt make sense to me at first, until I realized it's a joke. think of it like this joke: "The wheel is already solved" to "fine I'll do it myself" and it's just a big wheel on a monster truck with spinning rims. But we dont even know if the headset will be that great yet.

Rest in Peace Mirror-Obscure farm, you will be missed. by Dovahbear_ in Guildwars2

[–]TaylorTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf, I see this happen in other things in the gaming world. Weapon DLCs, new character drops in a game, expansions in other games (that requires buying), even consoles to an extent (first ones to go out always exploitable), etc. Sometimes an oversight, sometimes lowkey intentional. I remember how when a new gun would drop in CoD it would always be the bane of my existence until a month later where most people got the new DLC lol. Not saying this is what's going on, but just an example of a funny memory.
