Rhymenoserous posted:Or any cryptic game which goons seem to eat up despite them being almost universally awful. Cryptic games at least have an identity, there's redeeming qualities going on. Dressing up your character is really fun and there are other good things in those poo poo piles somewhere. Star Trek was at least decent for a while before it went completely to poo poo and Champions had the potential to be pretty good even before they killed it. No excuse for Neverwinter though, that game has always been a grind with a broken economy and all their bullshit has spread to the other games and made them worse for it. Also no making GBS threads on Secret World please, that game is really unique and does well to build a world you can get lost in, the big problem is it shouldn't have been an MMO.

KaneTW posted:It's a garbage F2P mmo whose literally only appeal is basically rear end and tits. One of the images that came up on GIS is a girl with a Final Fantasy sword on a motorcycle in weird anime thong armor that covers the shoulders and arms more than the torso and the camera is right up her rear end. That summarizes Scarlet Blade pretty well. I have no idea how it plays but the aesthetic is the kind of thing where you imagine everyone is just sitting idle in the main city in a massive, half-naked anime girl lump, and you don't want your imagination to go any further than that. The character models are actually sort of creepy on some level to me; I think it's the doll-like faces they have. They just seem so lifeless in screenshots.

Game's good enough to tolerate bad combat mechanics though, it has many things it's really good at was sort of my point.

So many MMOs would have been better as single player games since you don't even interact with anyone anyways.

Honestly I don't care what goes on between two consenting adults or one consenting adult and a body pillow but that means I really don't care. Keep that poo poo to yourself please. And from what I hear it's the same in Japan, they make it easy to get all that poo poo but they also don't want you to broadcast it.

I how this is the only post in the thread from Holyshoot. Manifest Dynasty posted:I'm on Entity Exile. I made a guild named Goon Squad last night if anybody wants to join it. Or take it from me. Or whatever. Space Jam was unavailable, so I assume somebody still has that? Kinda need to give out character names for this. Add me folks and I'll do social hilarity and parade around being awful goons in an awful game. Account name: blowme V: yes, I think they call it "player name". No other details need to be specified, it'll find em if it's the only name. I'm on Entity, and it's Manifest's guild I presume? notwithoutmyanus fucked around with this message at 04:30 on Oct 9, 2015 |

Yeah, and it'd be a pleasant surprise to hear they added some sort of accountwide ID poo poo or that it was always there but no one loving used it. I mean, I doubt there is one but gently caress it, may as well ask, though it is ridiculous that it doesn't; it's a pretty standard thing these days, it seems.

This video does a rundown of why Scarlet Blade exceptionally terrible. Its more typical MMO sins are eclipsed by that. (I would post the video inline, but the thumbnail is potentially NSFW) Wildstar might technically be a better game than this, but is more fun to poke at since most of its issues stem from arrogance and mismanagement.

I haven't played since the month after release and when the wife and I decided to kill time and make new characters on the PvE realm (our original characters were migrated to the one PvP realm), she was already in my friends list. So that, at least, has been there since launch. I don't remember how I added her. I'll test out next time I play and let you know.

When you add contacts, you can add by character or by account, I think. If anybody wants into this dumb guild, just message Manifest Dynasty and then make a dumb in-joke and also register on the off-site and also make an off-site and also put your social security number in the message so I know it's you.

I talked to players who think the game just needed to be harder to get people to play, I assume the only people who played Wildstar from beta to now, are the most fervent true believers. The way some people defend the Carbine you'd think croberts ran the company. Fake edit: Good news, people are trading caps in BGs so you can skip leveling and stop playing this game even faster.

Might be common knowledge but there's an exploit currently to trade control points with the enemy team to gain EXP and PvP tokens pretty dang fast. e: aand patched it out after like apparently a year. God forbid any MMO be friendly toward a casual player ever.

Getting 2 levels a BG if idiots don't try to pvp, talking to people while trading caps is the most enjoyable mmo leveling experience I have ever had.

There is a group of players that are win trading on Halls of the Bloodsworn battleground map right now. Capturing the control points and exchanging them back and forth right away gives a crap load of experience points. I just got 2 full levels in one match. This is in the 40 - 49 pvp range.

Lant posted:So how long until that is fixed and everyone has 50s of every class and doesn't get any sort of slap on the hand for it Never hopefully. There's far more important things to worry about fixing. I know someone who works at Carbine and they are never going to be told about this. This also takes too much organization to get working too. Two sides need to queue up at the same time and ideally both need to be full of people who are all in on this.
