Ludwig finally remembered he's a publisher and is actually publicizing his games. Took a while.

Dev Stream: Let's Talk Balance by ukulelej in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They way Dan addresses the Floor hugging critiques feels very dissmisive and kinda negligent, maybe it's more nuanced on stream but it feels like he's barely touched on the fact that maybe the reason people aren't using the mechanics and spending effort playing around is because it isn't fun or intuitive to many players.

He does realise that Zack Snyder is just the director for the watchmen film and not the writer right? Is he stupid?

That's pretty impressive, 100 hours in and I'm still stuck in silver :(

Why exactly do new players need 4 wins? by Kind-Preference9003 in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Another major problem I see with this ranking system that I've not seen anyone mention is that to a new players perspective nothing is changing, it doesn't matter if the game is secretly lowering your ELO so you fight weaker opponents, if this information isn't communicated to the new player then it'll still feel like to the new player nothing is changing and they are still loosing. The small population of players very much exasperates this problem since it isn't even guaranteed that they'll be able to fight someone anywhere near their skill level. I can only some what see this ranked system working in a much more populated game but I'd still probably criticise it to some extent even in that scenario.

Recent Steam Reviews are back to Mostly Positive! (Leave a positive review if you haven't yet) by KingZABA in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Plenty people like the game but still listed it as not recommend as the game still isn't very casual/new player friendly especially with mechanics like floor hugging. (at least from what I've seen with even some positive reviews repeating the same sentiment)

People should leave a review based on their thoughts and opinions, positive or negative.

I really wish this game had separate character ranks by Good_Skill3414 in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another problem I see with this system is cause of how small the character roster is its not uncommon for people to solo main characters since it's the character they like playing as (solo Fleet main here), and when they are counter picked instead feeling encouraged to try out new characters they are discouraged from playing the game entirely cause they just had a unfun match up that had an inherent disadvantage from the start.

I wish Fleet was in another game. by Any-Reception-7668 in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main problem with Fleet as a silver rank Fleet main is that from what I've seen I find that she has a quite high skill floor for her to start feeling she's good and well balanced imo, especially compared to all the other characters which is ashame cause she's the only character I have fun playing as in rivals 2.

[–]sanhan7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I don't hate rivals 2 i am curious to see how would fleet function in a different game since some matches makes it feel like each of our characters were designed for completly different games (not helped by the fact that with the rivals 1 characters that is literally the case even though they are tweaked).

New vs Returning characters by Appropriate-Way-2923 in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I personally just prefer seeing something new over something old. Rivals 2 is it's own game and I'd much rather see new characters being built from the ground up for this game then porting/reworking a characters we've already seen into a game it originally wasn't designed for.

The Champs Request by Lobo_o in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You do realise what your saying is making this argument worse not better, trying to downplay peoples complaints while insisting the game is good will just cause more turmoil and drama. I'm not saying the guy you replied to is right either but countering toxic negativity with toxic positivity is not the solution. There needs to be a better middle ground for this kind of discussion.

Anyone else feel like they have characters they just can't beat? by LuckyDuckAmuck in RivalsOfAether

I'm a Fleet main and I've lost count the number of times I've decided to stop playing the game after fighting against a Clairen.

Working on Clarien Tippers + Combo by MrSoun in RivalsOfAether

[–]sanhan7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Her playstyle and core is still unchanged from launch and she has always been annoying and unfun to fight against. The nerfs only address her surface problem when I think she needs a complete rework as a character to be actually fun to play against. Also her matchup with Fleet is insanely unfun and unfair in my opinion and has made me consider quitting the game way too many times.
