Honestly, poo poo like this is the Holy Grail of gaming to me. Like skiing in OG Tribes: I love when some small quirk of the coding creates an entirely unintended meta which turns the game into something else that was never designed.

Same, it's these little things that made so many games shine bright. Melee, Titanfall, Mario Kart, MvC2, TFC. There's a certain level of brokenness that, if it can be honed, makes a game really interesting. It has to be right at the edge where that brokenness that's right on the edge of being a skill teetering, but never falling into exploit territory.

I grew up in the Half-Life days, where every match was a mix of casuals/sweaty nerds and games only got patched every couple months because Fileplanet was the main source of distribution. It was great seeing how a meta evolved with a patch and how people just kinda put up with poo poo back then and you didn't really see the playerbase die because it was too hard to get into, people would just adapt or move onto another game. The bitching was rampant over comms but people still stuck around.

But these days everything has to be super accessible and homogenized. It's all so safe and boring, but you want most of your playerbase in the multiplayer spending money on cosmetics and unlocking battle passes.

Early 2000s PC gaming was dope.

Battlefield 2042 was several years later, Battlefield 1 came out during the TF2 launch. Still, Battlefield is huge competition.

I think the meta is "Battle Royale is stale and boring," something along those lines.

Every time I find myself playing Warframe it's like for an hour every year and I come to realize I don't understand what the game is. I always stop playing after a day. It's so bloated with crap. Like any game that's been getting a constant stream of content for way too god drat long.

Wow! Double plus gently caress Apex!

I hate how he just laughs about making the right decision because it was basically the one that made the most money. I hate video games these days.

Yeah and honestly, titanfall has had way more chances to be more popular than it is than most other games I know. How many other games have had as many revival events as this series only for it to burn out in like, a week?

Titanfall 2's MP never really stood a fair chance unfortunately because it was sandwiched between BF1 and the newest COD at the time, the post launch game I don't recall being all that substantial considering what was coming out for other FPS titles at the time, and the whole hacking situation.

If Titanfall 3 came out and it tanked Respawn I'd be glad that I at least got one last classic FPS title and not a watered down BR facsimile of what used to be. I could have gone without the SW: Jedi Soulsbournes for another TF3 as well.

I'm sure they could have at least poo poo out a TF3 in conjunction with ongoing dev for Apex, if they could get those two Star Wars titles out I mean why the gently caress not? Yes I'm bitter.

Well, some dumb judge whose son works for Microsoft and doesn't understand consoles or videogames just ruled that Microsoft can buy Activision so we're in for another decade or two of this awfulness.

It's a good thing Activision/Blizzard doesn't have any good games.

So all this Titanfall stuff was actually leading up to a new piece of Titanfall media....set in the Apex Legends universe.

*loudest slide whistle sound ever*

At least TF2 is back!

Edit: there's a new Advocate message in-game that says "Transmission to Pilot Failed" so I guess Respawn isn't going to stop with these ambiguous teasers until they drive me to madness.

Apex being a dogshit game aside, didn't they used to have really well done trailers and not lovely, straight-to-Netflix anime garbage?

if they make a TF3 can it possibly be as good as 2?

It's kinda hard to top the best FPS ever, but drat it, at least try.
