You’re asked to spend VC on Gatorade for performance boosts, on vehicles to make progression around the plodding Neighbourhood mode quicker, on shoes, on clothes. It’s relentless, in your face the moment you turn the game on, and doesn’t leave you until the second you quit (quite literally, since GET VC is right there underneath QUIT). Ah, I love it.

Gfted1 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Or do things the hard way. In theory, and I know there will be very dedicated players who will argue this, you can avoid paying extra money by simply improving your player organically. VC is awarded in other ways, mostly through game performance, so it’s definitely possible to start from the bottom and work your way to the top purely through playing your way there, even if it takes months. But the higher your stats get, the more VC improving them costs, so where it might initially only take a few games to move up a point, it can later take days or even weeks. And while loads of people are willing to do this, are we really even having this conversation right now? This kind of rationale is mobile game ****, the kind of odious formula work that you expect to see from something like Mobile Strike, not a major home console title.

Gfted1 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Aye, who wants to work to improve thier characters!?!?

marelooke Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Already looks to be better than the rpg's that released this year. Looking forward to it! Reminds me of Deep Down, with some Dragon's Dogma and Dark Souls mixed in. Edit: Throw in some Monster Hunter too. The graphics immediately gave me a really big Dragon's Dogma vibe. Here's to hoping the combat is closer to Dragon's Dogma than to Dark Souls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexx Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 The problem isn't "working to improve their characters". It's the unreasonable amount of time you have to spend on it. It's boring and tedious on purpose, to make you spend real money and skip this crap. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

213374U Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Aye, who wants to work to improve thier characters!?!? Maybe games should just be released where your characters are already maximum level and stats and already be wearing the best gear. *nodnod* Have you actually played a game that does this, or are just triggered by the very idea of people not wanting to grind for hours on end? See, they said the same thing about Battlefront II, and then someone did the math of what it would take to unlock everything without microtransactions, and came up with a figure in the thousands of hours -- and that was just the base game. Perhaps that by itself doesn't tell you anything, but the problem is that the progression curve is designed with microtransactions in mind. It is *meant* to be discouraging, because if you're having fun and unlocking stuff at a reasonable pace, it would be only an extremely small minority that would pay to speed things up. That's exactly what commentators mean when they say that **** doesn't belong in a $60 title. By the way, even EA dialed back the grind after word got around. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

I don't think you know what that word means. This is a location where we gather to discuss . I have no personal stake in you being butthurt over a games power progression curve.

Well, if you must know, I guess I'll whine about... DOMS. Killer shoulder workout yesterday. Don't see how that's relevant to the topic, but hey, you're the mod. And you still haven't answered. Mobile games don't count because, you know, freemium. WoW? IIRC you can buy a max level token, but that still doesn't allow you to buy BiS gear, so the progression curve design doesn't take microtransactions into consideration. So, again, what full price title have you played lately that offers microtransactions related to progression? It's a really simple question. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gfted1 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I haven't bought a game in almost 5-7(?) years but that's neither here nor there. Because I can read. So; You don't want to work for it (too much) You don't want to pay for it (at all) You get tore up from the floor up if someone else does Youre really only concerned for the children, gambling addicts, "cant control impulses"...wait...whats your butthurt all about again?

213374U Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Because I can read. Jury's still out on that. Especially considering that literally in the first page of the Google search you just posted there's a link about paying $700+ to unlock everything in For Honor. But thank you for finally admitting that, once again, you don't know what you are talking about. I'm not really "concerned". I just don't like games that I'd potentially want to play tainted by progression schemes designed to nickel-and-dime me by slowing progression down to a crawl. And I'm used to the kind of grind present in (western) MMOs. It's that simple. 2 - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
