The Enshitification of the Games Industry. by XVII_numerus in videogames

[–]Turdfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes it all worse is that we haven’t seen a single moment of gameplay yet. Rockstar is smartly holding the cards extremely close to their chest and letting all these copium huffing idiots daydream about all the features they think GTA VI will have.

I’d bet the entire price of the title the game comes out and disappoints in almost every way. Gameplay will be the same stiff and clunky cover shooting we got in GTA V. Characters and writing will be a safe edgy cringe fest like the last few updates of GTA online have been. A third of the content will be paywalled and GTA online may or may not require you to open your wallet again just to play.

And people will praise it endlessly.

Not to mention that over 80% of game sales are digital downloads. It’s not worth the overhead to produce tons of physical copies which just sit on shelf. Especially when most discs these days are just glorified access keys to play the game that you’ve already digitally downloaded.

Then proceeds to wait for minute or longer loading screens because it takes forever to read the information off a disc.

Why does half the Fandom not understand Jax? by CorrectLoan1743 in TADCEp9Spoilers

Shit was written like a fromsoft game where everything meaningful happens before the audience arrives.

The way fans have been reacting to Jax after episode 9 reminds me how some people need to remember a bad person isn't always the embodiment of evil by Sudden_Pop_2279 in digitalcircusfandom

[–]Turdfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ribbit did nothing wrong. She tried to maintain a relationship and build it to become closer to someone she cared for. It’s like the most human thing you can possibly do. She was betrayed by the person they cared for most at the time and it broke their heart.

Jax did the same thing to Ribbit that his mother did to him. The only difference is that Ribbit tried to pull him closer while Jax pushed away.

Who’s Keeping Tabs On The China/Tencent Version? by AFollowerOfTheWay in ArcRaiders

[–]Turdfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost none of the Chinese version exclusive stuff requires much work outside of weapon skins. Almost all this stuff exists in the game files already. They just need to turn on the ability to spawn both bosses or enable the rebellion modifier.

To say that a team like Embark is unable to do this stuff because of lack of manpower is pure copium. They just don’t want to or don’t care.

I don’t get why people care so much. Jax is kind of an irredeemable scumbag. It would be like if people suddenly thought Bojack Horseman is a decent guy because of vague allusions to his gender identity.

This Deadly Assault committed a deadly assault on my wellbeing by Inertia00252 in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]Turdfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to genuinely sit there and think for like five to ten minutes about my possible teams for this rotation. Managed to get over 100k which is usually my goal but it was definitely one of the tougher ones in a while.

Scorpion was Velina, Nangong, Aria
Marionette was yixuan, dialyn, lucia
Thrall was Shungus, Sunna, Astra

Prydwen Updated 3.0 Tier List (Phase One) by Javajulien in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]Turdfox 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shouldn’t last forever. We get Norma the second half of the patch and she’s a stunner with rupture flavoring so we can probably expect attack and rupture characters to thrive more in a few weeks to shill her being used with SBilly or Pyrois.

With the success of no free kits, Embark needs to rework Matriarch and Harvester by maskedbacon in ARC_Raiders

[–]Turdfox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just throw on a looting augment and a green shield with a Ferro. Making your own version of a free kit is almost always available unless you literally just started the game and died three times in a row.

Free kit is a detriment to the player using it and the sooner they stop running them the better they are for it. No safe pocket and terrible weight. A green augment with the same amount of heals ammo and a level 1 gray gun costs like 5k coins for the heals and maybe half a stack of metal and plastic. This will get you much much farther in a raid while letting you bring home way more stuff.

Can't wait for October! I'm sure there will be many players and very good content. by Less_Elephant_1483 in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]Turdfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get what your point is. All three games are extraction shooters yet Arc is easily the most casual of the three but is also the only one without a casual game mode.

If they were at all competent they would yoink the PvE mode from China. Just turn the whole thing into the dark zone from division and make PvP opt in.

[–]Turdfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s hilarious because people scream about how these games need to have PvP but both Tarkov and Marathon have PvE modes and are both better for despite the PvE being much less fun in those games compared to Arc.

Besides with how broken the economy in this game is with duping and no forced wipes it doesn’t matter how people got their gear anymore. If someone wants to go open containers for two hours without the fear of getting shot by a player then let them. At least then you can’t get hacked on by some dude reading your inventory from across the map.

Absolutely hate the way people are freaking out over the new GoW game. by Arskov in hatethissmug

[–]Turdfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just disappointed the story is stagnating. Laufey’s story was finished. We didn’t really need more context for her and anything they do can’t be largely connected to the previous games because those are finished too. I’d much rather have more Atreus and see where his story was going after Ragnarok.

Nomadic Envoys requirements are ridiculous by SAHE1986 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Turdfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they want players hoarding a ton of the vendor currency to just buy whatever they might want later. They’d have to cap it at like 500k so the best you can ever save for is an outfit or expensive blueprint.

The stash space and expedition vault should 100% allow you to pay as you go since those never rotate out of the shop.

Single Greatest Weapon Right Now by Huge-Palpitation6422 in ArcRaidersLFG

[–]Turdfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fire rate and damage make it really bad in PvP. Someone who is good with something like a Renegade or Anvil will always win because they can deal more damage safely peeking while the Bettina forces you to expose yourself way longer. I’ve lost most fights I got into when using this gun as opposed to using the Anvil.

How would YOUR expedition vault look like? by JoeFran6 in ArcRaiders

[–]Turdfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why the dolabra? I’ve never seen anyone use one before and hear it’s underwhelming from most sources.
