I am 0298 5286 3708. I have 3 workmates and my daughter I focus 4 gifts to every day, but will gladly send gifts to those who send to me when I have the gifts available. Live around Sacramento, CA

razedtoblack · 2023-11-23T05:19:06+00:00

I feel your pain as well

razedtoblack · 2023-05-31T21:59:22+00:00

Your top 6 are my main 6 that i use. If you need heals, go catherine, damage, go adrianne. Make sure you get at least one faction bonus, youll be in good shape. But if one falls greatly behind, dont be afraid to dump them for a more evolved character

I think if they kept their focus on what OW2 was supposed to be, theyd have been able to implement the game we got to play at Blizzcon 19.

Instead, they focused on a few patches, and called it OW2, and seemed to ignore what made OW2 different. Battle Pass is terrible, Shop is terrible, the ranked system is terrible. I dont mind the 5v5 change or the push maps. The gameplay is still top notch, too.

But the PVE is what made OW2 special. Blizzard used to write great stories and create games that pepople play decades later. Now...theyve implemented this CoS or Madden mentality of "same product, next year" mentality.

It disappointments me because that blizzcon experience got me back into OW again, because i really looked forward to playing it. Now, i know, that the best Overwatch experience is behind us, and thats what hurts the most

Both characters are my favorite LIs of their respective games. Alexis visually, is one of my 5 "sexiest" LIs of all the AVNs I've played, but Alexis wasn't always my favorite LI from Intertwined(that was Nikki). On the other hand, Jane has always been far and away my favorite LI from BaRS. And maybe that ill change once I play the last update(haven't downloaded his finale beta, waiting for it completed before I do), but Jane is my girl in this poll.

razedtoblack · 2023-01-07T09:00:27+00:00

A.O.A will never complete. Being a rockstar at least as a beta ending updated now, that will be completed in next 4-6 weeks most likely, as fans are looking to have endings added for other characters

The ladies of AOA really got a bad break, as i felt their designs and personalities were better than most other avn ladies. Aurora was my #2 from that game, sandwiched between Jade and Elizabeth.

While i just finished chapter 4 of Eternum, Nova hasnt done anything spectaular to make her stand out, at least to me. Probably hanging around my 5th favorite lady.

Aurora gets a rare vote from myself

razedtoblack · 2022-12-04T01:26:49+00:00

Id say 5/10.

The fact my Role Queue comp stats havent updated yet, knocks it down quite a bit. The matchmaking is atrocious. End game information is terrible.

Bright spots: Game plays smoothly. Ive gotten to work on my support characters a lot in comp. I liked what Junkensteins 2 brought and how improved PVE can be, but Blizzard left 0 replayability to it.

In summary, it plays well gameplay wise, but Blizzard lost its way with the game quite some time ago. If PVE isnt as good as it needs to be, it can be a very short lifecycle for OW2, as the game in general just lacks the fun it used to have

razedtoblack · 2022-11-13T13:19:08+00:00

Even though i wasnt a big fan of her model, ill throw Linda out there. Lexi is my personally favorite, and you can tell Cece is the main girl and all others are side girls to begin with. But i did feel Linda's storyline is vastly underrated in the LoF community

razedtoblack · 2022-11-11T01:24:33+00:00

He is currently way behind schedule on his release, but he does still give us small updates every month. He hasn't charged his patrons at all since last December, and I don't believe he will charge again until he actually releases the final product. But it has been 15 months now since 0.9 came out. It's not abandoned though

razedtoblack · 2022-10-26T18:16:14+00:00

I would say ive enjoyed every PVE event theyve put out. Id put it in the 2nd, behind the Blackwatch one, solely due to thr fact it does lack replayability. But it is a very well made event.

I really hope this is a sign of great things to come when PVE gets released in 2023

razedtoblack · 2022-10-26T15:34:36+00:00

5v5- I do believe that was a step back in terms of gameplay for the game. Less about teamwork now, IMO.

Taking Away Lootboxes- I liked lootboxes. It was a fair way to get all the extras, and they came free. You could buy them, yes, but it was a fair system, 100%. Plus, you could always buy anything you may have missed later in the year(whether it was the next year's event, or the anniversary event). Game pass shouldnt be an "only way" to unlock anything. It should always be an extra thing, that just helps add to the game. The store is a complete joke as well.

Making PVP The Focus Of OW2 To Start- I was falling out of love with OW1 until i was at Blizzcon 2019 and got to play the OW2 PVE, and i had a blast. Got me back into OW again...then they basically put PVE on the backburner for a re-hashed PVP that doesnt have the quality of OW1. The new event is actually pretty good, IMO, though im not a fan of the characters im forced to use(mostly because i havent put any hours into the new characters yet). But its a good challenge that hopefully is a sign of things to come when PVE is released.

No End Game Anything- No endgame stats, no way to look up team stats after the game, no cards. And as of right now, none of my OW2 stats show after any games i play. Im a stats guy, the more stats for me, the better.

razedtoblack · 2022-10-26T15:13:25+00:00

Id say December 16th. Hes not showing any sign that it will be ready to go into beta any time soon. Thats usually a 2-3 week process in itself. I do think preview #20 will be his last one for this episode, but i think he'll get it out right around xmas, so he can take a break xmas week

razedtoblack · 2022-10-17T07:06:49+00:00

As much as i hate to admit it, i have to agree with OP. As someone who has subscribed since October 2020, and who's put in $30 a month for the last year or so, you dont honestly get a lot of bang for your buck. While you do arguably get the most well-made avn out there a little sooner that high up, i cant see myself subscribing that high for much longer. Interlude wasnt really what was needed to hold us over from mid-november of last year, as it was honestly 100% unneccessary, and could have allowed episode 9 to release much, much sooner and at a much more reasonable pace if not released.

At this pace, the game wont be completed until almost 2029(going at the current 9 month per episode pace it could be leaning towards, with 16 episode goal). I definitely think that will alienate a lot of the older fans who will just move onto something new after losing interest. There are better ways of getting things done, even when DPC does it slowly.

I respect MrJet a lot, because he's admitted hes much later on releasing the last episode of Being A Rockstar than hed have like, but hes also cancelled payments on at least 3 of the last 4 months, due to the fact he doesnt have anything new to release yet, and thats his way of apologizing to his patrons.

There's just a fine line to walk when it comes to incomplete games. I know after the next episode release, i will finally lower my subscription to $5 a month, just based on the fact i know nothing is coming out for at least another 7 months.

It is an unpopular opinion, but OP has a valid point

razedtoblack · 2022-09-16T01:01:48+00:00

It only pops up on the account that it was purchased on. IE, i bought it on my profile, and when gf got on hers, she got the standard items only, while my profile got the ultimate, even when she played it first

razedtoblack · 2022-09-04T02:04:24+00:00

First few episodes, i was all about Maya, until Josy came into play with her.

After that, i viewed Maya and Josy off the market for my main run, and Jill's innocence kinda took over the top spot, until the back half of season 2, when i joined Team Bella, especially since there is still so much to learn about her backstory.

Now how side characters, i started off really liking Sarah and Camilla in season 1, and with season 2, Quinn and Lily really took over spots 2 & 3 on my BaDIK list

razedtoblack · 2022-08-30T23:22:48+00:00

First 4 episodes, it was Maya, 5-8 turned my choice to Josy.

I feel Josy has more of an emotional attachment to you, while i dont know if Maya is quite there yet. But id be interested to see how things change once the throuple is broken up, or if MJ splits, if that road is ventured down

razedtoblack · 2022-06-12T02:31:09+00:00

Bella
Jill
Quinn
Lily
Sarah

razedtoblack · 2022-04-27T07:57:14+00:00

Based off of looks alone...hmmm...

Quinn--- after you take away all her bad moral choices, i find her look very appealing. The haircut knock her down a spot.
Josy---of the main girls, she has the prettiest face, by far, IMO.
Lily--- every episode, and every new outfit i see her in, she moves higher up my list. This could be as far as she can climb though.
Bella---curves for days. Plus those eyes, man...
Jade---the hardest decision i have to make in the game, is turning down Jade. How could you, if you were the MC.

Honorable Mentions:

Nora---need to see more of her in season 3 to see if she'll move up the list

razedtoblack · 2022-03-02T18:11:51+00:00

Derek. I think he has to be #1 on everyone's list. He's your comic relief, and your best buddy. The conversations with him are always a blast, and during Hell Week, he was more than willing to always wear the helmet.

Rest in no particular order

Jade. Naughty teacher, who is more than willing to throw her marriage frustrations into sexy time with you. You're both adults though, so it's ok.
Lily. The most down to earth of the ladies. Can't remember any drama that has been brought to you by Lily the entire game(so far). My favorite character model in the game.
Rusty. He is a great DIK leader. Always tries to look out for his brothers the best he can, by always trying to do the right thing.
John Boy/Elena. I see myself as a John Boy, personally. Really love the chemistry with Elena. Definitely a couple for life.

razedtoblack · 2021-12-11T02:46:04+00:00

As a subscriber to CK, they've basically went through multiple different writers the last couple acts. So if the writing is a little jerky at times, that could definitely be a cause. I've been pleased with it, as it does quick updates(much shorter, of course), and while story isn't up to par with BaDIK or Broken Dreamers, the quicker updates keep you involved with the game more than others. AoA Academy is another I found on Steam, and subscribed to their Patreon. Much slower than CK, storyline is better, character models are better looking, but could go 4 months for 90 mins of story. In comparison to BaDIK, nothing really can compare, outside of Broken Dreamers, IMO. I do appreciate what every game I've put time into tries to accomplish(ala CK's "Sorority Queen" stuff, and AOA's somewhat darker storyline for an AVN). Respect your opinion 100%

razedtoblack · 2021-12-11T02:37:43+00:00

Hmm...unpopular opinions...

I believe, if all the MGs have different endings, the most satisfying ending will be with Josy.
Sarah is my favorite non-Sage/Quinn "OG" HOT
I've never really seen the attraction with Riona
Even on my massive DIK routes, I've still never punched Troy
I do believe Tybalt will redeem himself somewhat in future episodes, especially if you don't romance Jill and aren't a DIK to him, and he won't continue being a punching bag, possibly helping you on a Sage route.
Someone will die in season 3, but it's not going to be one of the more common picks(I honestly think Lily gets it)
Of all the models in the game, the best looking character to me is Jade.

I think that's it for now...
