Outriders was the fault of the devs not understanding what made the game fun and loving ti up, it's not a gaas. I SHOUld probably give it another chance now that they've made some changes.

HebrewMagic posted:Dog you are taking this poo poo weirdly personal Eh, I really dont. I was mostly trying to be self depricating at the end there. Ive been defending and arguing about poo poo I love on this dumb site for 17 years, this isnt anything new to me. Its always a good spar to me. I love the game despite its many flaws. Its one of the main connections me and my best friends have since I moved last year and we all love it. I love the community and have met some great people through the game. I speak to and play with some of the devs from time to time so I definitely am rooting for the games success. I guess maybe its personal in the sense that yeah, I dont really get why its amusing to actively cheer for something to fail that a lot of hard working devs and artists care about and work their asses off on or have passion for and then to salivate over the idea of pointing and laughing at them if it does just so you can stroke your ego over being "right". Thats super loving weird to me. There is an unshakeable cynicism that I can understand comes from general industry/GaaS frustrations so I do get that and sure, gently caress the suits who push the bullshit like XP boosters, but there are a lot of people who work on this game that genuinely care about it and are working to improve it after its disastrous launch. Radical 90s Wizard posted:Nah they only got dogpiled when they started to get all defensive and call everyone childish for saying mean things about the game. In what world is taking time out of your day to shitpost about a video game you dont play on a forum not inherently childish? Just own it, its SA, its ok. Invalid Validation posted:It’s fine if you like the game. I still do for the most part. But I’m sure as poo poo not going to say it’s ~good~. It’s trashy and sometimes it’s fine to like trash. The first three words I ever said in this thread were "I am a trash gamer". But I do think its good. There are good things about this game. Great things even, IMO. There also some very bad things but I think at its core it is good and only getting better. TheAgent posted:Yeah like more than 1 percent of players are going to do a coordinated raid type thing in this The general consensus from most of the community is a lot of excitement, everyones ready for a new challenge and the new build potentials. The only people not excited are solo players or people to shy for an lfg, but isnt this pretty typical for most endgame raid style content? How is it any different than the way Destinys raids function? (I am genuinely asking)

I don't root for GAAS games to fail. If they could ever actually deliver on what they promise, it'd make for a great experience. But you know what else is in that boat? Star Citizen. Both situations are doomed to fail based entirely on the fact that reality and linear time do not support the things promised. At least its not directly physics cockblocking GAAS like SC, but the core issue always ends up that the endgame is poo poo. When your entire selling point of a GAAS game is that there is constantly new, amazing endgame, the endgame being poo poo is kind of a big problem. But content takes way longer to make than it does for people to get "done" with it, and it is not remotely economically or manpower hours feasible to churn out content for any game at a rate that would satisfy people. It basically ends up with many of the same issues of an MMORPG, except they assume the players only interacting in small groups somehow reduces the issues in scale when you're still dealing (hypothetically) with just as many players but an even faster demand rate.

Outrider is a GaaS, with all the monetization ripped out, it's walks, talks, smells and farts just like the rest of them, for some odd reason, all the microtransactions have been torn out and thrown away. It's almost like some bizarre experiment.

I think people have legitimately been really unfair to Outriders, the devs have said its not a GaaS title even. Even when it first came out, it was still a pretty fun game. The online requirement is hilariously bad though and still needs to be removed, but otherwise it really is a good game.

Although a bit too late. There was some new content just added, but im too busy with other games now to want to go back to play through it again.

The combat's nice enough but the rest of the game feels too shallow. Couldn't be bothered to beat the main game but it might be more fun if you have a steady group of friends. In the end,, I paid sixty dollars for a game I wouldn't play for free.

I got a good couple months of play out of it. The problem is, you can see the bones of a good game underneath all the bullshit. If you can get it for $30 or less go for it.

lol holy poo poo what in the gently caress are these costumes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-h1ENSM7kQ huge difference between this and the GOTG game, wherein they gave you classic costumes with references to many comics and alter egos. I think the Eidos team had a lot of passion and knowledge of the IP they were working with while Crystal Dynamics just barely understood what the gently caress the Avengers were, hence the very bad "nonvengers" faces and profiles as well as the completely nonsensical skins most characters have that were designed with seemingly zero thought about who the characters are.

DLC Inc posted:lol holy poo poo what in the gently caress are these costumes The faces and the choices of costume are very probably all at the behest of Disney/Marvel and CD basically only got to pass things up the chain for approval or denial. We know the faces at least are because they have the Avengers IP license but not the MCU one.

I get that the MCU likenesses would have been waaaay too expensive to use, but that doesn't mean they had to make such BLAH looking boring faces as a result same with the default outfits which are also BLAH looking

loving around with spiderman and I can confirm that if you don't own the ps4/ps5 version of this game, don't even bother owning it lol. spiderman is a messy and chaotic pinball that is the dumbest and most fun way to play the game. doubly so if you have a full 4-man team of just spidermans webbing and whipping people all over the loving place. it's a game in itself to see if you can beat up an enemy before another spidey ziplines over to gank them for themselves. his voice actor is hot trash and he doesn't even get his own unique missions but hey, if you have the game sitting around, 4-spidey team is worth seeing at least once for how batshit it is.

The Spidey voice actor is very bad, he sounds like the nerd character on a underfunded Netflix exclusive. End it doesn’t help that the last guy who did an entire game Spider-Man was really, really good.

I brought this up earlier in this thread, but it's completely laughable and insulting that Spider-Man DLC for Avengers is PlayStation exclusive, when PlayStation already has two really good AAA Spider-Man games with a 3rd one in development right now. No one is going to want to play this trash when Miles Morales is a million times better.

well the raid sucks for multiple reasons but lol if someone crashes at any point you can't complete it because there's no mid mission rejoining also no checkpoints so have fun restarting a 2 hour raid with zero rewards absolute loving stupid design and waste of dev time. just like I expected almost none of the small, hard-core playerbase is even attempting it

Raids super fun. Have run it 3 times with only one small bug. Loving the new loot. Status leaks and sonic conduit are absolutely insane when we coordinate our builds. Looking forward to the 2022 roadmap for this dead game

Is it going to be my main game like a multiplayer game or a satisfying looter shooter is? No. Is it a fun way to kill a few hours in an afternoon playing a brawler where my favorite comics characters play in ways that actually suits them? It’s not at Marvel Heroes level of terrible, mutated perfection but it is pretty decent for that.

Finally got some serious play time with Spidey. It’s nowhere near as good as the Insomniac game, but he’s pretty fun. The auto targeting on the web-zip attack is horrendous though. I do like the rework to the cosmetics. Yeah, it’s just loot boxes, but it’s a reason for me to hop on every day, play a mission real quick, and open a box or two. Sure, most of it recolors, but I do have a good looks for everyone now. Edit: big rumor now is She-Hulk is the next hero. Makes sense, she’s getting a Disney+ show this year, probably around the spring.
