Diablo Fanboys Try to Defend Diablo 4

Good to see everybody back again

Amazing review

Sounds cool

He is truly the most sane youtube commenter

Damn straight.

Why did he say something so brave yet so controversial...?

lol so underrated

toplol 😄

They sound like one piece fans telling me it gets good after episode 700

Is cope the new online buzzword? I keep seeing everyone say it

Hey, Starfield is out!

its the new drug that everyone is overdosing on@@KrolKaz

Happens all the time in abusive relationships. They just need to get out of these "live service" games while they still have a chance.

we don't need a video game one piece pls

*cough* every MMO ever *cough*

Yeah like I barely even play a game beyond the 30 hour mark so if I have to wait until that point, then fuck that shit I’m out

Cough cough warframe

Long ago, on Yahtzees said the same on his Zero Punctuation episode on FF13. Like seriously, forcing yourself to play something that you are not enjoying on the premise that "It gets good after X amount of hours" its pretty much a horrible deal.

I can understand people defending indie games or supercheap/freeware games but a $70 turd from a "aaa" studio, f that.

A true fan would be someone like yourself who saw the reality of what the franchise had became

Thank god I stopped affiliating with Pokémon after Heart Gold 2012

Like Star War fans, or Star Trek, or Dr Who.... Man, "Modern" franchises just regressed

cool he got to 48 and stopped and said it was ez ..... died how many times did not play hc lol when classic d2 came out the end game was trash

I dont know if lost or maliciously misled. Might be a bit of both.

You hit it straight in the head

True true. Grinding as a mechanic is okay sometimes, but if the entire gameplay is THE grinding, then I'll pass.

That's true I think people don't value spent time nearly enough.

Amen

It works for diablo 2 because that is the end game of diablo 2 lol. A game which you can beat in idk like 8 hours for most. Then do it again 8 more times with other classes and builds. The robotic people will grind for loot to kill the monsters they grind for loot a bit faster /repeat until ladder reset.

oh back in the days of D3 when i seen that don't care what the better rewards was there is nothing exciting about starting over to many times i like to move in one direction and that is forward

​@@eclipse369.Yeah but d2 was a Good game.

That's the reason why in this kind of game nowadays, I only play in "off-season". Because if I'm too busy in my life to play the game, and can only play 1-2 times a week, I would never be able to make any sort of progress.

@@DarkSim64yup how i exactly feel

Truly an enlightened individual, ngl I also didn't want to buy this game because I play hearthstone and overwatch so I too suspected it wouldn't be as good as people hyped it up to be since Blizzard sucks. Maybe Microsoft can make them make good games again lol..

@@ARottenMuffin Yea but his support for blizzard resulted in quite of a not buying the game perhaps, so was it really support

I'm happy to see that these enlightened individuals actually exist in a sea of fanboys

Even funnier now. They just dropped patch notes for 1.1 that are nerfing the speed of leveling considerably. So the part that sucks about d4 is getting significantly longer. LMAO. Idk why anyone buys blizzard games anymore. Company is defunct at this point, the only hope is that Microsoft cleans house and brings back some semblance of the old blizz.

@@Chzrm3yes but I don’t have much hope after how Microsoft handled Halo after the franchise was handed to them

I can smell the spoilage from here and I don't even play Diablo. God season 1 looks like the worst thing ever. Fire the people that put it out.

Guys, just wait until Diablo 5, I am sure they will have finished Diablo 4 by that time. 🤣

It's wild, if D2 back in the day would've been like "yeah, only after 30 hours the game gets good", it would've died and be forgotten, washed away by the sands of time for nobody to remember.

@@Mazaroth it might be nostalgia but the gothic feel of those games really got me, I don't think I ever got to much end game content other than the cow level.

hohohoho...I did it in beta. Died IMMEDIATELY upon leaving the first non-tutorial town, to another players dragged mob...Literally got 1 tapped by the 1st monster I saw out of the stupid tutorial. And that was moment I knew it was time to return this game. This is dumb. Whoever thought this was a good idea, is ALSO dumb. Blizzard is dumb. And it's not getting better.

@@tylr3669 🤣

@@ohyea456 So you're one of those people who can't conceive of any circumstances that other people experience being any different from yours, right?

@@stevealford230 You clearly don't understand my point. The two people I talked to, said their biggest threat was disconnecting. My point to them is that they are making the decision to play with a bad connection. If your biggest threat is a connection... you're not meant to play hardcore online games. If you choose to anyways and have a horrible time... that's on you, not the game.

Well, Visual Novels have to be interesting from the start otherwise people will stop reading.

Even FF13 apologists gave it twenty hours.

I'd argue Final Fantasy 14 fans will say after 300 hours it starts to get really good. Just get outta the base game and it'll be okay. Just hit level 80 and your class will feel good.

@@izanami3793 Nah, Act 1 is *always* the boring shit and that is Industrial standard deliberate, so Act 2 can twist the knife harder

​@@malcolmvalentine1360lmao, true. Luckily I didn't had to wait that long, I enjoyed the game from the beginning

Too bad people seemingly didn't get the season pass and only have access to denial and anger.

These companies literally hire pyschologist to make their grind, lootboxes and battle passes as addictive as possible.

I think it also has to do with the current times where we are used to getting everything instantly. There are some gamers that don't want to spend hours grinding for equipment and upgrades so they spend extra money to get it in a second. Worst part is, it's starting to get in single player games. Devil may cry 4&5 has the option to buy all upgrades before you even play the first mission and even all of the unlockables that require you to replay the game on higher difficulties. It's clearly worked well enough to to be implemented into the Resident Evil remakes.

yes husk persons are not being taught wisdom reasoning and above all else common sense

@reconz-em6gj lmao your argument is hilarious!!! on par with the ones he showed on video, cant judge a game on its own merits because he didnt play the previous one, im guessing the technical issues and bad balance are not the fault of the game, they just magically showed up because he didnt play d3! thanks for the laughs!

@reconz-em6gj theres no way you don't see the irony in your comment

@reconz-em6gj you can't be serious

@reconz-em6gj you got a few lil troll ;)

@reconz-em6gj then why bother adding the class, stupid argument. Imagine needing to play FF 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 in order to like or critique FF16

If hardcore fanboys says: "Don't like it, don't play it." its mean = " Stop accurately criticize our game." .

​@@megaomx9082so you can accurately rate a game you played a small percentage of? Next time you walk into a restaurant make sure you rate the entire restaurant based on the appetizer because you've been to other restaurants before and therefore are qualified to extrapolate your opinion lol

​@@chaosdragun1608I don't think playing the campaign to finish and some dungeons is a small portion of the game, I don't know what to consider a small portion of Diablo, but personally I think Act man played a good portion of the game or at least played it to completion, I can comfortably say it's fun but it doesn't do anything that makes it stand out, I got to world Tier 2 on a lvl 56 Nerco and it just wasn't really fun when I beat the campaign for another time and then I think it's absolutely stupid that to experience any new content you have to make another character to do so.

@@chaosdragun1608 Well, actually you CAN rate most stuff without having to consume all of it. Did you ever read a book? Well, if you read a lot of books, you very fast learn to judge a book after only reading a few pages. If you walk into the resteaurant and the floor is dirty, the appetizer tastest horrible and the service is bad, you do not need to try every other dish to realize that the restaurant is low quality. If a movie sucks after 30 minutes, you do not need to watch 2 more hours to being able to "accurately rate" it. And in a computer game there is quite a lot you can accurately rate very fast: Combat system (in Diablo 4 excellent) e.g. Graphics. Soundtrack. Voiceacting. World Design. Even story progression and the way a story is told can be judged with a fair amount of accuracy. Yeah, if the story starts strong it can get weak. But there are VERY LITTLE games that have a weak story at the beginning and get better and better over time. So if the story is very mediocre right from the beginning, the telling is not good, the characters are boring - there is next to no chance that these points will improve. How does the AI act in combat? That is something you figure out quite fast. How is stuff like pathfinding of your units? Again, you realize how good or bad it is within the first hour. Is something like the inventar / skillsystem and menue clunky? Or easily navigatable? How is the input to your commands? Is there lag? Most of the elements in a computer game you encounter in the first hour and you can rate in the first hour. Sure, there are some elements you can't judge (e.g. replayability) - but the big majority of a computer game can be EASILY and ACCURATELY rated after very little time.

​@@chaosdragun1608 you can accurately rate the portion of the game you played. "I played the 1st 30 hours, it sucked" is just as valid as "I played the entire game, it sucked"

300 episodes?! Geez. 😂

Eh its not a good comparison, its each to their own to enjoy one piece and its very popular anyways. Also people know early episodes of old anime isn't gonna be as great buy its how anime was before. You need a better comparison since unlike diablo 4, the anime is more popular and vast majority like it

Sorry for your loss

Same. The 'end game' is grinding higher and higher NM dungeons forever. The higher difficulty levels are just marginally higher quality floods of trash loot.

i did not even make it to lv 50 on my 1st play through got bored of it mighty quick

I died in Hardcore at level 59 then stopped playing since. I haven't looked back! ^__^

@@user-bi6eg1lo7v yeah won't touch hard core mode anymore learned that back in D3 it only took one death for me to never look back at that idea again

Idk some of the most popular games on the planet are like that. For example a good amount of mmo’s get more fun in end game rather then then normal game

@@letsplayoldergames9172that’s not the point you dimwit. If the game doesn’t engage you within the first few hours of gameplay then to you as the customer it isn’t worth putting anymore time into. If the game isn’t engaging in the beginning it won’t magically be engaging in the end game. The whole reason good mmos are alive is because the early game motivates people to the end game. Diablo has the opposite effect it seems

Some games are more Fun after you beat them, Fallout New vegas and the Devil may cry series for example.

​@@sol9059 Yeah but they're fun b4 u beat them too

@@letsplayoldergames9172 then that game either gives the player booster shit like "jumping event", "free package with the most broken shit each 5lvl" or combat is the only thing redeemable factor of that game. Most of that game fanbase just keep lingering because of sunken cost or they just invest a third of their life and dont want to quit and try new things. Thats a bad game. Really, really bad game

Probably would be better to direct the hate towards the foolers, to be perfectly honest.

@@Ioganstone been there, done that. Complaints falling on deaf ears are not heard. Through Blizzards "vibrant" history, they have only demonstrated how little they give a shit about what the majority of players want.

What did the patch do? So excited for BG3!

Thanks to this video and the endless complaining on Reddit, I don't have to buy a PS4/5 just to play this game because that is what I was planning on doing. This was my plan like the last 4+ years. I was just waiting on this game to finally come out as D3 is my favorite of all time. But they went to the extra greedy and speedy route that mobile games like to do. Grind for crumbs or spend money for a chance at a slice. When I first seen their advertisements, it reminded me of those Avenger Mobile Ads "Our most ambitious game yet", they kept repeating it. I knew it was over. Oh yeah then Meagan Fox was the nail in the coffin.

Man gamers are so tasteless nowadays they think switching from D4 to FF is a good thing

wanna co-op BG 3?

@@Mont3000 It's actually a very common trick in the industry. To re-direct the people's attention from the real problems of the game they do these crap. vs some indie game that shows a fck ton of gameplay and a lot of explanations about how the game works. vs Diablo IV and them just saying colorful words to cover up how unpolished the game is.

@@sealteampepega8403 it depends. for example i just got into PoE and I really like some systems , but what i hate is the loot drop. In some cases it literally fills your screen with junk. I love the gem skill system though. This game also has a campaign that is meant to be played through at fast pacing because i couldn't remember anything memorable about it. but i haven't seen anyone defending that.

​@@sealteampepega8403bro what this game is made for casuals lol by lvl like 80 u have all the gear that matters.

"I ordered a burger with fries, the fries were moldy, the hamburger was rotten. However, the cake desert was wonderful. Can't believe wannabe reviewers give this restaurant 0/5 without having tasted the desert.. 5/5"

@@SyntaxWyntax thats just diablo though a slightly better item is the grind people look for and have since d2LOD From grinding down GG items like Grief runewords, or Enigma, Or any of the high tier runewords. As there are rolls for those items as there are for their bases. Finding a good item takes time, and in d2 it took a long time to get there, with D4 you can skip the campaign and can grind to level 50 pretty quickly. Its one of the best parts of Diablo 4 is just how quick and easy it is to get there once you've beaten the game cause you never have to do the campaign and I can tell you... Diablo's story has never been good. ITs always been heavily disjointed. So most people ignore the story in d2...

that statement came from "minmaxing" perspective. D2 is so fundamentally imbalanced that vita seemed to always be the best pick. that's how basically every "meta" char was skilled (you could get damage from other sources but having only 1000 - 1500 life meant that you're getting one shotted in hell if your resistances were bad) aside from that, every point in str gives 1%ed melee for druid, pal and assa. for barb it was 2%. amazon damage scaled with dex. for nec and sorc there wasn't a stat (energy simply increased your mana not your damage) so they had to get their damage from elsewhere if your gear was good enough though you could go the other way around. get vita to 1500 (or even less, maybe fill up with gcs and scs) and put the rest into str or dex. with barbs and amazons getting 350 - 400 of those 510 stat points into their damage stat, really made a difference

Isnt that pretty meaningless ? If the only point of a stat is to " i need it to equip item" ...The good thing imo was that it was meaningless to sorc/necros but important for the fighters - i like that in a good RPG where classes feel diverse and use different stats and not like D3 - my mage is wearing a 2H Skorn axe and it casting spells with it , my Barb is doing the same ... so what is the difference ? Only important stats are CC/CD/AS and D4 feels similar in that regard. I like more specific skills/stats and not just generic number improvements. I want a build where i use my slow 2H for huge slow hits and a dagger for fast atks with a lot of crits and a wand that increases the magic dmg etc etc .

strength gave you the ability to equip your items in the beginning of the game, but all endgame guides say to not waste skill points on it after that. If Act Man only plays the campaign it makes sense he would have this perspective, but the people who grind the game out actually have a fuller idea of what stats are useful. (For example most characters have between 60-80 points into strength, and most endgame characters have 200+ into vitality).

@@Deqnkata It's not meaningless. There are stat requirements in PoE too. What this does is open up game design and build design. If you want a certain piece of gear, you have to have a certain required stat for it. So, you have to either path your skill tree for it, or find more genius ways to get those stats. This in turn also allows designers to create unique items that rewards extreme stat thresholds. This also helps that in PoE, your class does not completely stop you from playing however you want, as all it does is affect where you start in the skill tree and some style choices in your sub-class. Also, in regards to "slow hits". In my opinion that never works in ARPGs as game designers have never figured out how to balance that correctly. The problem with "slow hits" are proc rates and damage. If you're attacking faster, you have more chances to apply effects and trigger effects. But, if you have "slow hits, but big damage" attacks, people break it by just giving it faster attack speed, and ignore the "slow hits" entirely. There is no satisfying way to balance this.

Good point! The Tales of games have this currency you earn over the course of the campaign and then you can spend it once you beat the game to make your next playthrough radically different

@@TheActMan That's a really cool idea! Gives incentive to maybe find the harder to find items etc to earn more of that currency!

@@TheActMan As a Vesperia hardcore player or Tales player in general, Grade Shop was a great system from replayability. The Grade system was a great way to "motivate" you to get better at the game since it was like Campaign Ranking on how well you did during your playthrough. The better u did, more grades will be awarded to your NG+ for more features. Unless you are a degenerate like me and did "Blah Blah Blah Violet Pain" cheese with Rita to one of the Beast Side Quest Monster with Minimal Damage and Risky Ring. LOL Also, I love the "Skill issue" check Boss in an RPG. In Vesperia, you got Gattuso aka the infamous Demo Boss that whooped your ass VERY quickly if you are not paying attention and your party SUCKS aside from Yuri and Rita. Or in Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne with the Matador fight aka you will LEARN HOW TO PLAY THE GAME kind of boss. Beating these guy are more than grinding because you need proper strats instead of gung-hoing your way power leveling.

Well put. I have a feeling that people who defend D4 are actually trying to convince themselves that all that wait was not for nothing, that we have an adequate product to keep us happy for another decade.

Thankfully, there are still great companies like From Software and bunch of indie game studios, where quality takes precedence over microtransactions and rushed development. We sadly have to more carefully filter through the garbage to find the gems, but they still are there... The numbers are running lower, but they're still here...

Couldn't agree more. Have some standards people.

This take was gold. When the Sonic movie had a garbage looking protagonist the the internet exploded. They practically demanded better and you know what they got, a protagonist that wasn't horrifying to look at.

Why is he shitty on d4 campaign though? It's MUCH better than d2 and d3 and MUCH MUCH better than the garbage PoE story which everyone has to redo on every single character for god knows what reason

*Blizzard is Porn Production.* *VALVE SOFTWARE ITS CHAD.*

*obsolete

Same thing in d2 though, grief practically makes all other melee weapons except maybe beast and last wish useless.

I'm not a fan of Belzebub. If I wanted to play D2 I would do just that. I prefer devilutionX. Is a reverse engineered port that adds widescreen support, 60 fps (and animations), bunch of bug fixes and other quality of life changes but the gameplay aspect of the game remains intact. This imho is the best way to experience vanilla D1.

I'm glad it was Belzebub that was highlighted and not The Hell. Bezelbub actually tries to maintain a consistent aesthetic to what they add (back in) to D1.

Hell yeah, Valheim is so incredibly good.

i would argue d3 gearing was at least fun for a week or so, get your set, get the right stats, roll some stuff, get rare uniques. In d4 gearing is equivalent of having full bis uniques by level 35/40 in d3 and only replacing them with exactly same uniques that now say sacred and have slightly better numbers. Its not like youre even trying to solve best stats and character build, get items that enable you to do cool stuff with your build. i had bis eq at like 40 when i done first capstone dung i was fully decked out. and if you know the gearing breakpoints i had basically sacred items before my first capstone because of the wierd 624-625 reroll of stats breakpoints so i had like 5 items that were already better than sacred ones you could get. Gearing is a joke in d4 for anyone whos not lobotomized fanboy

Not to mention, Diablo 3 came out over a decade ago. Could've just delayed it even longer.

It’s the basic essence of gambling. 😅

Hilariously the game barely got loot variety at all . Not as many suffix on item as you'd expect , not that many armor and item variations even for looks . Most of the unique are trash outfitted with very situational powers , letting people hoard them hoping that some cheese build combination will make it relevant (instead everyone aims for the same uniques for each classes) . Even the tier among items makes no sense ... the narrow gap between sacred and ancestral item is off and weird . We are mostly farming for better substats % on mostly subpar items , or hoping for another drop of the same uniques with better % .

Nail on the head.

Agreed mate me and friends are a group of 5 we played back4blood they broke it we never went back, we never went back to redfall, fallout 76 .

Yeah, imagine finishing tutorial before the game gets good, amiright

⁠@@shmekelfreckles8157implying that it’s tutorial lasts 30 hours, which honestly makes the game sound even shittier as there’s no logical reason to waste that much time to begin with.

Let us have a moment of silence for our fallen comrade 😞

Everyone press F to pay respects.😔

Me: hears "NOoooo" wait what's so terrible with that take. It can't be that dramatic..... Also me: hears "Overwatch 2" OH SHIT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I personally really like the campaign from a gameplay standpoint, but yeah the story is utterly garbage. And that's coming from someone who loves the game.

At least I knew the blacksmiths name lol

It had some good moments but I feel like it was wasted on a game no one cares for. Especially Deckards death, to kill him off in the FIRST act was such a damn disservice to the franchise, I’m not against killing off characters but god damn that shit was wasted

I think the cinematics in D3 were gorgeous. Maybe it's just been several years since I watched them and so I have rosy goggles on for them, but... to this day, I have rarely seen anything that can compare to how great those cinematics looked. The lighting and textures were next level, is what I'm saying; the tech aspect of it. Cinematics in D4 are much, much worse. So far, only the intro cutscene has great lighting and textures. The rest just use the game's graphics... so far. (Also, I'm the only person I play the game with that actually wants to listen to the story. Everyone else, including other usual story enjoyers, are skipping through everything but the biggest scenes. So they have no idea what's going on and I have to explain.)

the dlc for the campaign was even worse

People that play shitty games should stop and play something better.

Which side of the argument do you mean?

yeah, i get that blizzard bad but we have to give them props when they do something good if we shit on them when they fuck up

@@cirescythe Both, probably.

Your opinion is opinion.

The only game I can think of that is like that is Final Fantasy 13, which give you new tutorial until you litterally reach 60% of the game. And it's known to be one of the most divisive game of the series

I feel this way about FF14. Everytime my GF asks me to play with her and make a character. I've tried to play it. Got to level 60 and said "when does the game start?" And apparently the answer was another 40 hrs of random useless story quests that I was just skipping through at the 30 hr mark because the story just wasn't interesting at all.

To clarify, the people that say "you didn't play the real game until endgame" are the people telling you "Hey Diablo was LITERALLY designed to be SUPER casual friendly and the devs said so themselves. Since the difficulty increases the more you play, it only makes sense that the longer you play, the higher challenge you face. If the whole campaign was too easy then you haven't gone far enough AND after 1 single playthrough, if you don't want to play the campaign again, you.can skip it to get to the harder content a LOT faster FOREVER. Do I personally want a difficulty bump or even a way to play the campaign on a harder setting? Sure, someone that has put in tons of time in ARPGs I would be happy and that could even come later. But to misunderstand how a game is designed and explicitly told how it was designed and then bitch about the design and never try to experience the endgame, yes, it's pretty dumb AF.

​@@KeaneKaminaso it's still a shifty 30+ hour tutorial that's like saying you need to watch the first 12 seasons of a show before it gets good

@@derrickmeade4891 To get to the good stuff in Gumball or Avatar - you must sit through pretty mid first seasons before it actually becomes good. In Adventure time it takes two seasons to get good

And screw your friends, they sound like salty players.

tbh ur friends sounds pretty cringe. If u play as a groul wait for the others man

Can’t even play this shit cuz I start dozing off

I'm sorry man that sounds like the worst gaming experience anyone could have

Like what's even the point if you just skip through everything? You're not playing the game, you're *skipping* it.

THis is a good point and I had completely forgotten about that aspect of D3's story. In D4 you just hit a level and HEY LOOK ORACLE WILL TALK TO U NOW

That was a great part about d3.

Don't insult the Circus of Value or El Ammo Bandito, they had far more personality than Blacksmith #27.

He isnt a vending machine? Liar

I could of sworn 1 time I was walking into a new town in D4 and talked to the vendor and it looked like the vendor 2 towns away. I didn’t have a teleport to get back because they are spread out and not all towns have them, but I wasn’t going to back track just to see that characters were just reused. The potions lady from the first area was a weapons seller in another. Great game design. Anyone saying they would have to have more assets has obviously never play ff14 where there could be repeats in certain towns but everyone literally felt like their own character. NPC wise I mean.

yep. im tired of this shit. whose with me?

@@chonkychookie6949I’m with you man.

Yeah Josh made some really good points on that video that you mentioned.

Imagine if you went to a restaurant and they served you turds for the appetizer and the main course, and when you complained about it they replied to you "how can you even critizise, you haven't experienced the restaurant yet, the dessert is the real good part". Imagine if you bought a music album and the first 15 tracks were nothing but dull static or awful music that you can't skip, and only after those unskippable tracks you were allowed to listen to the "actual" good music tracks...

​@@camilohiche4475You can't appreciate how good the food is if you don't experience the 💩 first!

Well i know 1 example-one piece :D otherwise i do agree with him

I havent played the game, I have heard good reviews and I have seen AM's videos, main reason why I didnt buy it was lavel scaling, I feared everything Act Man said this game would be, if leveling is uselless, what is the point of DIablo game, its a freaking joke IMO. But as Acm Man himself said, we are basically not the target audience, so wahtever. I myself do not care for multiplayer elements nor the end game. TIll this day I am not sure what endgame even mean, like in my brain, I play the game, I finished the story, thats it... But apparently now players care to grind through a story and THEN game opens, what is it even, storyless game events like its fun part featuring other players? As I said, I just dont get it. F BLIZZARD, I wont even try this game, maybe its good, but as I said, I sensed my opinion would mirror ACT MAN, good if people like the game however, but ts clearly not for me nor the Act man, people who liked single player story and leveling driven RPGs....

People have always been wacky "Give a man a mask and he will show you his true face" -Oscar Wilde, of course.

you never think you'll be one of those "kids these days" kind of people before you're like 40 at LEAST. and then it hits you like a train

@@disposable_income_andy Yup. I am 37. Kids these days.

@@disposable_income_andy man i was already like that when i was 20. almost 30 now. kids these days cant even read or write or do basic arithmetic.

It isn't just kids these days. Adults are in perpectual arrested development. I deal with adults at work that act like children. It is pathetic.

Was really fun when it first came out idk how it is now lol

I'm not interested in the game but you have me curious as hell. Please, do tell. lol

@@BigVorst best place to start your research is to check steam game and community reviews... it's a Chinese and Korean core community so just think about that for a minute

​Words that rhyme with "Why-Hair"

I'm similarly so intrigued please say more

Yea, that price is called sunk cost and it psychologically makes people justify continue playing. Remember the good ol days when good games started out GOOD and only got more awesome the more you played it?

I can confirm that FF13 after 10-15 hours is still hot garbage. You finally get out of a seemingly endless corridor by finishing the campaign. The world opens up and then glaring issues with the Paradigm system make the game pretty much unplayable when it comes to certain hunts. So… Yeah, I did that so you don’t have to. FF13 is, and always has been, trash.

FF13 got good?

I think that concept is so stupid because you're basically asking players to invest a bunch of time grinding before they're even supposed to have fun. People will literally RUN to the endgame in diablo, borderlands, etc. And then complain about the endgame as if they didn't just cannonball run through 90% of the content while attempting to enjoy none of it.

And there are some people that say why is there so much hate for FF13 when 10 was also linear but people somehow love that and not 13. And I'm like bro, FF10 had actual content in it, interactions with the world and NPC's, secrets to discover, side missions, minigames etc. FF13 really is just a fucking empty corridor.

the idea that the campaign should not be played over and over again is wild to me.

@@snuffeldjuret See, because why? Why would I want that, that to me for example makes no sense and replaying a game has no enhanced value for me for example. I like other aRPGs for this exact reason. Farm, enhance your gear, make it perfect, enjoy the way towards perfecting it with the grind and just mindlessly farm more (for a few reasons,, some even related to real life). For this reason I played witcher 3 once. I played it for 150 hours and massively enjoyed it, sure. But I would never play it again cause the story is told (except for a few options here and there and different endings probably that I would never see cause I still would choose the same dialogue).

@@_Nemesis23_ you would want that because the story is just an added bonus on top of the game play. It also makes you connect more to the characters and the story, creating a better build up for the next game. Ask yourself why these unique items in the games keeps reoccurring over and over again.

@snuffeldjuret well its optional. if you want to replay the campaign again then you can. if you want to skip the campaign then you can.

@@snuffeldjuret Not everyone has the time for that. I beat a game once and then I move on to the next one, the story has been told there's nothing left to see. This idea that someone needs to replay the game over and over is something only no lifers will agree with
