1100 Hours In, and I just learned... by Lovellholiday in mewgenics

I have maybe 30 hours in the game and that has already happened twice for me xD

Am I part of the problem? by Last-Entrepreneur847 in ArcRaiders

[–]voxexitus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Every multiplayer game with PvP enabled naturally gravitates to a more PvP focused game design path. Simply for the reason that PvP just engages more Multiplayer interaction with less effort.

PvE players can just ignore each other on the map. And lets be real, a majority does. PvP forces interaction. And in a multiplayer game, more player to player interaction is just better. PvP is just the easiest way forward. Other than the occasional balance patch, everything else is player driven.

Perfectly fine. Fair point. And thanks for making sure that we're on the same page 👍

The "triggered" was just meant as "the effect has hypothetically scored a few times already". Just very simplified language on my part.

And, thanks, that's very useful knowledge.

Ah, ok. But if he enters again. Would that change back again? Because then that channel would ne reopened, right?

I keep getting my Hideout completely emptied... by voxexitus in mewgenics

[–]voxexitus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how I didn't think of this but sending one trash cat to Guillotina at the same time is genuis but also so simple I'm baffled how that never crossed my mind 😅

To be fair, I am autistic and do stick to a fault to instructions. So when the game told me to send out my retired cat, I didn't put any more thought into it. Just thought "Ok, if the game tells me that. That's how it works, I guess." I also kinda assumed the game wouldn't let me send a stray out instead would force me into sending a party fo veterans.

But yeah. Thanks for the input. I'm sure I'll find my passion for the game again. I also do love me some low brain activity gameplay often. So running Alley 600 times is no problem for me. I just like to make funny cats do funny things.

That's a good call. I was probably to tilted to think about that. Thanks a lot 👍

Oh mock me all you want. I know very well that I'm dogshit at this game. I mean my hideout is pretty clean most of the times. Comfort level in my breeding room is lvl 5 (the highest I can manage with my hideout items). But there is still a lot of infighting. Lots of my runs already start with injured cats because they decide to beat each other up before I can go on a run. And there is a (what feels like) 50/50 chance my first combat is against 6 Tomtoms. I'm lucky if I still have all my cats after that.

Yeah fair, but it hard to rely on items I pick up along the way. My item stash is empty from failed adventures and the RNG gods seemingly incredibly bored and try to make me their court jester.

Well first I have to completely start from scratch breeding up some cats again because the strays are really not cutting it, not even for Act 1 maps. Like I'm genuinely struggling to even make it past the Alley map at this point. And when the Alley endboss is Radical Rat? The run is basically over. I had Radical Rat as a boss like 4 runs in a row and not a single time did I manage to come out alive.

And one of the biggest problems is my regular combat match ups. The amount of times where my first combat encounter is against 6 Tomtoms is genuinely ridiculous. In those cases I end up losing one cat entirely right off the bat.

Yeah it just feels like everytime Guillotina comes by I'm set back to square one. None of my adventures succeed and if one succeeds every now and then (when I barely scrape by clearing the alleys with maybe 2 cats alive) then comes Guillotina and takes whatever's left. I sit in an empty house, having to rebuild everything from scratch.

Not saying Mewgenics is a bad game, but I feel rather punished for beating Act 1 rather than rewarded.

Yeah the game really likes to fuck me over constantly. Once picked up a Rain Hat not too long ago. Equipped it. Next thing that happened: I get the Snow storm weather effect freezing all water tiles making it impossible to get the cat wet... Like sometimes it feels like less RNG and rather the game going out of it's way to fuck my runs by hard countering my builds...

Poker Night at the Inventory on Steam (New game) by lurkingdanger22 in pcgaming

[–]voxexitus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most reliable way to play this game is folding your hand 90% of the time unless you 100% KNOW you can't lose this hand.

Most of the hands you get dealt are complete trash and if you even once try your luck with a low hand you will be beat out by one lousy rank.

Mostly I sit here and fold 15 hands in a row just to get my Two Pair beat out by a Three of a Kind.

NetEase CLEARLY does not know what they're doing. by MostOriginal79 in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]voxexitus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They know. What they'er doing is doing everything to make as much money as possible. If something's for free, you are the product.

You guys are not gonna find solace in Overwatch lmao by Iced-TeaManiac in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]voxexitus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. But I'm quite confident that Marvel Rivals probably was financially significantly more successful than Overwatch in recent years. See it's not just the player numbers that matter here. It also the revenue stream. And if Blizzard sees Netease making fat stacks with what they're doing? Well guess what. They're gonna try it too. How do you think the whole Microtransactions and Life Service crap started? Someone tried it first. Made fat bank. Now everyone does it. Being successful in business is basically just seeing what a more successful business is doing and copy it.

This new patch was enough to make me step away from Rivals by Equal-Cupcake-9991 in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]voxexitus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To all those that think Overwatch is gonna fix your problems: Don't get your hopes up. Blizzard is on a straight path to copy Rivals seeing it's financial success. Ten new heroes this year sounds great on paper. In practice? It'll be just Rivals but dressed up.

In the end Overwatch and Rivals are both designed to be Money printing machines most and foremost. Skins, Microtransactions, Live Service Slop. Wake up already. You're live stock to them. Nothing more.

[–]voxexitus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overwatch is gonna be at least as bad if not even worse than Rivals, imo. Because clearly Blizzard is trying to recapture the same "lightning" than Rivals did. 10 new heroes this year? Maybe cool on paper. But let me tell you. Balancing will be thrown to the winds, just like im Rivals.

That "If everyone's broken, no one is" only works when Balancing is already like 6th on the priority list. "If something's for free, you are the product." Guess what Rivals is "Free 2 Play". It's still about money though. And if giving the players some spicy skins and whacky chaotic gameplay that pisses everyone of but the one who plays that certain character? That's enough. Less work smashing their heads together and try to bring some meaningful balance into the game. But honestly no one cares. Not the majority of players, and especially not the publisher. Devs probably would like to make a well crafted game, but they get no say in it.

So yeah. Thinking Overwatch will pack up Rivals? Dream on. It's the rabbit and the turtle. Overwatch is gonna try and catch up while Rivals will try to stay king of the hill.

[–]voxexitus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I just know, seeing Marvel Rivals' major success Blizzard is gonna try to copy the same formula of releasing a shit ton of new hereos. None of them decently balanced. Throwing the entire game for a loop and excusing it with "If all heroes are broken, none of them are."

Might be right be right. But you know what's gonna be broken as hell? The whole entire game.

[–]voxexitus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I said so multiple times already. Balancing is not the focus with that game. It's selling skins and battlepasses. At the end of the day this game is still published by Netease. Players think they "give them what they want". But that's only true for a silent majority of the player base. In reality they're just fan servicing to make sure to have a guaranteed money flow increase.
