  • The Cycle has completely changed into a brilliant Tarkov light style tactical shooter game. It has come on a LONG way and super impressive now. Playing with ‪@Tomographic‬ and ‪@Stodeh‬ Leave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching.

    "Who would shoot someone mid-emote?" That reminded me of long ago when I was playing the original Tribes. It was on a modded server that had more powerful weapons. I was scouting way back on a mountain overlooking the enemy base as a sniper and I spotted a guy doing a dance emote in an elevated structure with a bunch of others surrounding him and watching. He was in the big heavy armor and looked ridiculous. I dropped him with a headshot and the others stepped back like they were in shock, looked around and flew out in all directions. It was like poking a hornets nest. I skied the hell outta there. Good times.

    • @Herkan97
      @Herkan97 2 года назад +3

      ​@@lorsmephisto5222 Originality isn't equal to fun, so it doesn't matter. What usually gets made is what's actually fun, not what is original.
      There are probably thousands of small indie games that do unique things, but almost no one will ever touch them, even if they know of them.
      For example in one game the goal is to just wait however long it was, a year maybe. You can explore the place and such, but much of the time will be spent elsewhere in your life until something changes after a year in the game.
      What part of that is fun? It's original, maybe. In order to know it's original, I'd have to know every single video game.
