Because when there are infinite possibilities, the one common factor ends up being the limited and biased source of imagination, which is us, humans. Also because most of the time the goal is to make easy money.
Sometimes restrictions can breed creativity more than freedom. Freedom can be paralyzing esp if you’re working for a soulless company with no real vision. For example lots of early video games were incredibly creative with the restrictions they were given due to technical limitations.
I think hardest part about traditional sci fi is grounding character journeys and goals on a scale that is relatable without losing the audience to their own imaginations and thus losing the focus of your story
Simply because the writers aren’t creative enough to fully harness and seize the potential of the sci-if genre. That and they were more focused on the live action part of the game than delivering an interesting narrative.

I was actually thanking god, I've been very curious to know about the details of the game's story without purchasing it and too many people treat it as sacred. Now I know what flavor of trash it is. That's all I wanted.
At least Destiny worked properly at launch. Anthem at launch had problems even rolling stats on its weapons; in the game I have a gun with 0 in every stat, which I've held onto after the bug was patched since it's such a hilarious thing to own.
Sometimes its funny to go back to this video just to get reminded this game even existed. It feels like a fever dream. I am genuinely surprised EA hasn't unlisted it yet. Nobody plays this. Nobody works on this either.
@Arisa Yeah. Though at least in Anthem it was a cutscene you could watch in the game. To see the attack on Insomnia, you have to watch the Kingsglaive movie. Funny enough, the attack on Insomnia was going to be an experienceable moment when the game was Versus XIII instead of XV. It was one of the many great things that got cut when the game got rebranded. I really dislike what happened with Final Fantasy XV, and I would've much preferred that we had gotten Versus XIII.
BioWare isn't free from blame. Their company has become full of diversity hires and they literally invited Anita Sarkeesian to help advise developers on ME:Andromeda and Anthem.
I still cant really believe that Anthem is already out. THIS is what was supposed to be the big Mass effect replacement? I think i'd rather play Andromeda.
If i remember correctly, the game of anthem itself was made in about a year and a half, it wasn't even being built when it got teased at the game cons. (They had multiple years of pre-development and most of their ideas had to be trashed due to time and engine limitations.) Not really an excuse because they should have started earlier, but still context.
I like to think that day I played Super Mario drunk off my ass I condemned countless universes to... I don't know? come to think of it, Bowser is pretty chill and I wouldn't mind a world ruled by him. At least he's there.... the Mushroom King has done nothing for us.
Exactly. The real life US military has failed many times, yet people still have faith. Why? Because before they failed, they succeeded on the mission, which is what the freelancers did. Am I right?
Alexander Zheng buddy you’re making barely any sense and definitely arguing for no reason. Got off the internet you’re going to embarrass yourself, go play outside kid.
"I don't like Anthem" I bet that's true of most and people who like it may understand - some may be for gameplay. "I don't like pie" You see, now you lost me.
I play anthem not because its a good game but whenever i just wanna fuck around in a power suit for a hour with op guns nuking everything i cant even remember the last time i died but that might be because i use: health the javelin
EA: Why don’t you, instead of making a game, just add in some things and sell it for $60. Then why don’t you add in some more things for people to pay for.
I just hate this type of protagonist so much, oh my god. This type of... etheral creature. No origins, no family, no story - blank enough to make it seem like a self-insert but actually impossible to relate to because they were injected with a wacky sense of humor just for the sake of making it look like they have some sort of personality, which only ends up making them look dumb and not believable for a penny. It gets even worse if the game keeps calling you the hero when the story is actually driven exclusively by the other characters and you're basically just a random overpowered mcguffin guy following along. Either commit 100% to the self-insert way with a silent and completely blank protag that I have to fully rp with, either balance it with great decisions, choices and lore like in the Mass Effect, either give us a protag with an already established personality and story that I have to discover and enjoy as is because you don't always have to insert yourself into the main character to enjoy a game. Don't try to do the three at the same time or you get a game that is very unsatisfying because the main window through which you look at it, aka the player character, is just uninteresting at best and unbearable at worst.
@PasserMontanus I'll have to disagree. In both these games, while the protagonist is silent, they're not blank, because you can make them whoever you like. Neither are they injected with a wacky premade humor. In these games, you are given a relatively large pool of options to RP their personalities through dialogues, origins, stats and specializations, etc. And the way you personalize your character influence the decisions that are avaible to you. And you are actually the hero, you actually drive the story in those games, you're not just an overpowered sidekick for the real protagonist. In fact, Dragon Age Origins lets you decide on your character's personality and morality much more than its two sequels, which are more restricted. It's actually pretty well balanced in terms of role-playing. The protagonists of DAO and NWN could never even dream of approaching the degree of emptiness and cringe of the Anthem protag.
You know what would have been cool? What if the Monitor was the last Urgoth alive and wanted the ultimate Mcguffin to revive his dead race. It's at least better than just wanting to be perfect.
I simply cannot agree with you, It is so juicy, so perfect, absolutely filled to the brim with meaty content that im quite frankly astounded that you somehow missed. I respected you a lot until this announcement, I've been watching you for years and have generally always agreed with your opinions; however this opinion is so unfounded, unfair, and just flat out wrong... How can you not like pie?
i bet you like nearly all kinds of games that comes out then, cause i cant belive some people still buys EA games at this point afther they F up their last chance at star wars, and they f it up, can just see games with EA logos on it and predict it will be bad at this point, andso far all of them has become true, and a reality.
Actually, Alex... trivia time: The game isn't called Anthem because of the Anthem of Creation - the Anthem of Creation is a thing because the game is called Anthem. That's right - they originally had a different name for the game, couldn't stick with that one, renamed the game Anthem, and then came up with a story that would give the name "Anthem" some meaning. *_NOT MAKING THIS UP._*
I heard about this IIRC they wanted to call it beyond but the executives at the top started shitting bricks because they weren't able to get the trademark.
I was curious about this game and I bought it when it was 85% off. I purchased the Legion of Dawn edition for around $10 and I can safely say that the game isn't even worth $10
"I can't properly compliment anything without bringing up significant caveats." An incredible quote for a flop of this magnitude. Though I'm not sure anyone will happen across this comment 4 years after this video's release, not much has been changed or improved with the game. Legendary contracts were added as a form of high-difficulty daily tasks and take place in the open world. Endgame activities include these contracts, waiting around for world events (think Public Events from Destiny, albeit on a 1 to 3 star scale of how much XP they give), and the aforementioned Strongholds. Strongholds are only done by people who want to top each month's speedrun on the in-game leaderboards, as they provide little loot and XP. There is no difference in XP gain between Easy, Normal, Hard, Grandmaster 1, GM2, and GM3. New players are encouraged to stay on Easy or be carried through GM3 content by other players to slowly level up their "gear score" to around 600, and their character level to 30. I'm at gear score 240 and character level 14, both from 30 hours of gameplay. If you want to max out (gear score 960), going below GM 3 means that items will always drop 5 levels under the max, as a nice little arbitrary sprinkle on top of that which is the loot system. Easy or GM3, plenty of wasted development time balancing the rest of the difficulties. Loot only matters if it's Masterworked (additional special modifiers like +50% Damage and +40% Ult Recharge) and if it can set up combos. This game didn't need a crafting or gear score system at all. Some good things still have happened. The servers are still running. The microtransactions are still running as well, but are not as intrusive as Destiny, especially Destiny 2 as of this comment. There is still a semi-active community through the Discord server, and new players are still helped out by old players. Though I shouldn't grant BioWare any excuse with this horrendously shallow story (I still haven't completed the Javelin of Dawn quest and was surprised by how uninteresting the rest is), the currently small playerbase feels eerily similar to the outcast nature of the Javelin Pilots. This game isn't worth anyone's time, money, or attention, yet it simply feels good to play. The feel and sound of the Javelins and weapons is masterclass, especially if you pick Colossus, since the lack of movement options feels natural on a 2 ton behemoth. The fact that the game is no longer being serviced live means I don't have to suffer from any FOMO like in Destiny 2. I can't praise the game, not a lot, but I most certainly enjoy seeing anyone pop onto the game to try it out, as nothing else in my library comes close to the graphical fidelity and the raw fun of having a customizable Iron Man game.
Thanks for taking the time to write this, Anthem popped into my mind recently. Ive never played the game but I'm glad to hear theres still a loyal player base out there supporting Anthem, even if it doesn't necessarily deserve it
The section at 13:20 where he talks about the writing and dialogue for the protagonist is SPOT ON, and quite accurately describes what I hate about the writing for Carol in Captain Marvel. These characters don't have a personality, they don't have flaws, they don't struggle with anything and they don't CARE about anything, and the writer seems to think that having them drool out snarky one-liners every 2 seconds is basically the same thing as making an interesting or relatable character.
14:05 "At least if you were silent you could inhabit your own values and live though the other characters. But when your un-named protagonist is so badly written that you'd rather have them basically be non-existent then you have kind of destroyed the access point that is supposed to ease us into this expansive intimidating universe." Spot on. Thinking about this, this was a major problem I had with Fallout 4 as well.
Jack off of all trades? I don't know a clever way to spin this thing so it properly reflects the actual shit-show of a graphical mishap that is this so called game.
Was never a need to play this game, either play Destiny or play warframe, shoot even play Titanfall, all three of these games cover every element of this game but better.
In Destiny the game is played in First Person and the hub world is 3rd person. In Anthem the game is played in 3rd person and the hub world is in First person. Not the same at all!
I really enjoy plaing anthem but every critisism i heard about the game is true. also its very similar to destiny. i like the gameplay of both games but i agree nearly everything else beside it is weak
Sad fact; BioWare is actually at fault. They had years to make a game but when EA asked where the game was they basically said “oh shit” so they rushed it. The video at E3 was a movie not the actual game.
To me it looks like it was more of the leadership for anthems fault, they sat on their asses not telling their employees what they were doing or what the game was and not deciding anything for most of the development and telling everyone to rely on “BioWare magic” Wasn’t until Casey and Mark joined back on that anything got done. Top that with the fact that talking and taking any inspiration from Destiny was forbidden, they wouldn’t listen to their Austin team that made SWOTOR and had learnt from MMO mistakes and the frostbite engine being a piece of shit. The entire development was a delusional mess of hubris from those in charge. At least that’s what it looks like to me.
@@fluro3769 Yep. Not since the development for Final Fantasy XV have I seen such a massive development nightmare. But at least the director(s) and such for Final Fantasy XV were doing their best with a terrible hand the Square Enix executives had given them.

Man, imagine if our choices could've prevented Owen from betraying us. Like maybe our dialogue or something could change the fate of the characters. That way, the dialogue would also affect the combat since this either causes Owen to go against you, or for him to understand and continue to side with you but with a stronger bond.
"How dare you, Anthem is going to become really awesome, like best thing ever" Says increasingly nervous fanboy after EA-Bioware patched out any resemblence of fair loot again.
And tbh even with the increased drop the loot is still garbage. Its just that its a lot easier picking up lots of garbage and picking up a little bit of garbage. One you have a better chance of finding something not garbage and the other you spend 30+ minutes on the hardest difficulty and MAYBE get one kinda not trash loot drop.
Finally a real in-depth review of the "story", up until now I thought the game had no story. Also, if EA hates single-player that much, why even include the option?
@@InsertSomethingStupid2002 Yeah I saw that too on Zero Punctuation -_- "Surely someone made a dreadful mistake. You really don't want to play on private, just switch back to public match so you can join the *NORMAL* people!"
@@jacksmith8689 investors do play games. The problem is that if something is treding they want every game to do that. See PUBG (battle royal or free for all for old geezers) now, Call of Duty (militart fps) then and Double Dragon (beat'n'up) way back. Games like The Division, Destiny and Anthem sell pretty well and because they are long have low resale at the first 3 months. Those months are critical for a new game because they are selling at full price and allow the Publisher to recover money fast.
28:54 "There needs to be ACTION, ACTION all the time otherwise your friends might get bored" thats why i hate multiplayer games. Its allways just run and gun. Friends: "skip the cutscene, its boring as hell!" Me: "But i want to know whats happening in the story." Friends: "BORING!"
This was such a painful problem of F76. All the world building and lore were punted into computer terminal entries or audio logs. Except you can't even pause/resume a single audio log. If you get forced into combat by respawning enemies, your buddies start going BLAM BLAM BLAM, or start talking, or something IRL comes up? Fuck you! Restart the audio log! So everytime you found a terminal or audio tape (there were hundreds of taps and I don't know how many terminal entries), it felt like you needed to scream "EVERYONE SHUT UP AND STOP HAVING FUN! IT'S READING/AUDIO TAPE TIME!" That or you just played the game solo, like IHE did, thus ignoring the whole "play with friends/MP" part of the game. Like BW, BGS had no idea what it was doing making a multiplayer game.
@@duncanlutz3698 that is why I will always perfer and play single player games more besides the fact that all multiplayer games are temporary (servers shut down eventually)
And just like Bungie, all of the people who made the studio what it was have long gone. I really don't understand why people keep letting themselves be charmed by the typical and generic "We've learned from our mistakes" and "This is our biggest bestest game ever!" quotes.
It's not generic, it's a sci-fi shooter that fails to capture the same thing that strikes a good cord with in Warframe. Warframe is far from perfect but does things miles better than both destiny and anthem.

you know, they REALLY should have gone with the 0 protag rout. You are a Solider / Clone / Robot / AI / whatever generic "one of many" tropes. Not the Chosen One, but one of the ants who might get lucky. You aren't Special, you were Given / Found / Simply Chosen / Specked into / Stole your Suit and are doing what you can with the other users. It wouldn't even be hard to justify Co-op, Like PR, Commercials, Radio Broadcasts "Working Alone is Dangerous, Buddy up" or "Work Together, Or Fall Alone" Or something. Like, that alone would fix most of this. Hell, add on you find your upgrades from dead Armor, old armor, abandoned suits and tripping over it. "You are no one, one of many, you will die, but who knows, you might actually pull it off"
Right! But I don't get why MMO's and Games like this NEED the "1 True Hero" trope? because at the very core of the game, This is not what MMO's are. You are Literally one of (WoW) Millions and that is how it should be played. "Sole Survivor" "The Chosen One" "Secretly a god" work VERY well for First Person Games. Hell, that would even work for the Meta of an MMO but YOU the player should be a deg who is "doing their part" to Start or Stop the apocalypse Anthem, You AREN'T the Sole Survivor, You are "Pilot 456 out of Millions who FOUND (Stole) a Suit of Armor. Blade and Soul, You AREN'T the Sole Survivor of having your Clan destroyed, you are Backup sent by the Clan to help the Gods. Fallout 76 "The Experiment has Ended > Go Rebuild America" instead of The Late bloomer looking for the Leader in a dead world. Like, This isn't a hard concept to follow. I get that companies are trying to Reel in the Elusive First Person Market, but they forget that a "Live Service" Model needs Players.... not Sole Survivors.
Like, When you Joined a Guild in an MMO, or hell Second Life that HAD NO PLOT, Players weren't there to be the The Chosen One, it was social interaction and that's about it. Eve Online's 50k sustained users Weren't there for the combat...

For shame IHE, how many times are you gonna review destiny?
HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO TEACH YOU OLD MAN
This game is definitely worse than destiny
Hey, this is about the Dominion and some lady named Dax. This is a Deep Space 9 review.
At least Destiny worked properly at launch. Anthem at launch had problems even rolling stats on its weapons; in the game I have a gun with 0 in every stat, which I've held onto after the bug was patched since it's such a hilarious thing to own.
It's relative.
Sometimes its funny to go back to this video just to get reminded this game even existed. It feels like a fever dream. I am genuinely surprised EA hasn't unlisted it yet. Nobody plays this. Nobody works on this either.

The coolest scene
Reminds me of FFXV
@Arisa Yeah. Though at least in Anthem it was a cutscene you could watch in the game. To see the attack on Insomnia, you have to watch the Kingsglaive movie.
Funny enough, the attack on Insomnia was going to be an experienceable moment when the game was Versus XIII instead of XV. It was one of the many great things that got cut when the game got rebranded. I really dislike what happened with Final Fantasy XV, and I would've much preferred that we had gotten Versus XIII.
Ah yes, Anthem.

@@samuraigaming4975 That's what she said
Get glitched
I just hate this type of protagonist so much, oh my god. This type of... etheral creature. No origins, no family, no story - blank enough to make it seem like a self-insert but actually impossible to relate to because they were injected with a wacky sense of humor just for the sake of making it look like they have some sort of personality, which only ends up making them look dumb and not believable for a penny. It gets even worse if the game keeps calling you the hero when the story is actually driven exclusively by the other characters and you're basically just a random overpowered mcguffin guy following along. Either commit 100% to the self-insert way with a silent and completely blank protag that I have to fully rp with, either balance it with great decisions, choices and lore like in the Mass Effect, either give us a protag with an already established personality and story that I have to discover and enjoy as is because you don't always have to insert yourself into the main character to enjoy a game. Don't try to do the three at the same time or you get a game that is very unsatisfying because the main window through which you look at it, aka the player character, is just uninteresting at best and unbearable at worst.
Very well said.
It's a classic BioWare protagonist, though. It was the same in Neverwinter Nights and Dragon Age: Origins.
@PasserMontanus I'll have to disagree. In both these games, while the protagonist is silent, they're not blank, because you can make them whoever you like. Neither are they injected with a wacky premade humor. In these games, you are given a relatively large pool of options to RP their personalities through dialogues, origins, stats and specializations, etc. And the way you personalize your character influence the decisions that are avaible to you. And you are actually the hero, you actually drive the story in those games, you're not just an overpowered sidekick for the real protagonist. In fact, Dragon Age Origins lets you decide on your character's personality and morality much more than its two sequels, which are more restricted. It's actually pretty well balanced in terms of role-playing. The protagonists of DAO and NWN could never even dream of approaching the degree of emptiness and cringe of the Anthem protag.

Actually, Alex... trivia time: The game isn't called Anthem because of the Anthem of Creation - the Anthem of Creation is a thing because the game is called Anthem.
That's right - they originally had a different name for the game, couldn't stick with that one, renamed the game Anthem, and then came up with a story that would give the name "Anthem" some meaning. *_NOT MAKING THIS UP._*

"I can't properly compliment anything without bringing up significant caveats." An incredible quote for a flop of this magnitude. Though I'm not sure anyone will happen across this comment 4 years after this video's release, not much has been changed or improved with the game.
Legendary contracts were added as a form of high-difficulty daily tasks and take place in the open world. Endgame activities include these contracts, waiting around for world events (think Public Events from Destiny, albeit on a 1 to 3 star scale of how much XP they give), and the aforementioned Strongholds. Strongholds are only done by people who want to top each month's speedrun on the in-game leaderboards, as they provide little loot and XP.
There is no difference in XP gain between Easy, Normal, Hard, Grandmaster 1, GM2, and GM3. New players are encouraged to stay on Easy or be carried through GM3 content by other players to slowly level up their "gear score" to around 600, and their character level to 30. I'm at gear score 240 and character level 14, both from 30 hours of gameplay. If you want to max out (gear score 960), going below GM 3 means that items will always drop 5 levels under the max, as a nice little arbitrary sprinkle on top of that which is the loot system. Easy or GM3, plenty of wasted development time balancing the rest of the difficulties.
Loot only matters if it's Masterworked (additional special modifiers like +50% Damage and +40% Ult Recharge) and if it can set up combos. This game didn't need a crafting or gear score system at all.
Some good things still have happened. The servers are still running. The microtransactions are still running as well, but are not as intrusive as Destiny, especially Destiny 2 as of this comment. There is still a semi-active community through the Discord server, and new players are still helped out by old players. Though I shouldn't grant BioWare any excuse with this horrendously shallow story (I still haven't completed the Javelin of Dawn quest and was surprised by how uninteresting the rest is), the currently small playerbase feels eerily similar to the outcast nature of the Javelin Pilots.
This game isn't worth anyone's time, money, or attention, yet it simply feels good to play. The feel and sound of the Javelins and weapons is masterclass, especially if you pick Colossus, since the lack of movement options feels natural on a 2 ton behemoth. The fact that the game is no longer being serviced live means I don't have to suffer from any FOMO like in Destiny 2.
I can't praise the game, not a lot, but I most certainly enjoy seeing anyone pop onto the game to try it out, as nothing else in my library comes close to the graphical fidelity and the raw fun of having a customizable Iron Man game.
Thanks for taking the time to write this, Anthem popped into my mind recently. Ive never played the game but I'm glad to hear theres still a loyal player base out there supporting Anthem, even if it doesn't necessarily deserve it
The section at 13:20 where he talks about the writing and dialogue for the protagonist is SPOT ON, and quite accurately describes what I hate about the writing for Carol in Captain Marvel. These characters don't have a personality, they don't have flaws, they don't struggle with anything and they don't CARE about anything, and the writer seems to think that having them drool out snarky one-liners every 2 seconds is basically the same thing as making an interesting or relatable character.

YT algorithm: hmm this video is about fps games... lets give it an athem ad. *plays the anthem ad*
Me: ....The apocalypse clearly hasn't ended
same.
You mean Adpocalypse?
I got the division 2 😂
Seeing as how you now basically get 2 advertisements in a row, it's actually become worse.
It's not an FPS, it's a TPS. The first person part is not the shooting part, that's FPB (first person boredom)
If you get too invested in the "Hype Train" eventually it runs you over.
I love the sound of IHE's voice. Sometimes i sleep with his videos playing in the background
Alex should do ASMR
I think I’ve watched the not Disney and not dreamworks collection 50 times now just to fall asleep with it in the background.
yeah i listen to his sftw a lot while im going to sleep
Boy will you love JAR media!
Pat Katon being calmed by the voice of hate. You’re either an online troll or maybe a fan of asmr.
28:00 Dark Souls 2 knew how to stack health depending on how many players were in the area to fight the boss. How could they not do the same thing?
NintendoHub and it’s a much older game lol
NintendoHub almost all of the issues with this game make me think of Monster Hunter: World, in how that game did everything Alex brings up right. It’s weird thinking how similar the 2 games are in a way
Dark Souls 1 does that, hell it's a Souls series tradition.
Demon's Souls had it.
Raiden The Jack I wanted to say Dark Souls 1 as well but wasn’t too sure since I didn’t play much online on it compared to 2
How could they not do the same thing? If you'll look to your left, you'll find the answers. See that? It's all the f-ks Bioware doesn't give. And if you look to your right, you'll see the rest of the f-ks bioware doesn't give.
Teen: *gets pregnant*
Abortion doctor to baby: *GET GLITCHED*

I kept hearing "get clenched". Honestly more interesting than what it actually was.
Jokes on you I had a save file 9 months prior.
😂😂😂😂😂☠️
What's up So S1lky
“What kind of monster doesn’t like to celebrate their birthday?”
Me. I’m that monster.
You you....
MONSTER
I’m honestly the same way I just get money and candy then just sit down and play games
"Let's get together and celebrate the fact that you are a year closer to death than the last time we did that!"
@@Kickiusz Or viewed from another perspective "Let's celebrate the fact that another year has passed since the last time we did this and nothing killed you."
Anthem is better now!
They took out a single loading screen...
…. lol
And even more loading screens were removed till now. ;) direct access to forge from everywhere, also in the missions. And you can start another mission without going back to tarsis!
@@blablubbss1 Ah yes complimenting basic functions that should have been in the game in the first place.
Better now,better now.

"The we lost the faith of the people..."
Hmmm.... if only EA would take a hint from their stories.
you know, they REALLY should have gone with the 0 protag rout. You are a Solider / Clone / Robot / AI / whatever generic "one of many" tropes. Not the Chosen One, but one of the ants who might get lucky. You aren't Special, you were Given / Found / Simply Chosen / Specked into / Stole your Suit and are doing what you can with the other users.
It wouldn't even be hard to justify Co-op, Like PR, Commercials, Radio Broadcasts "Working Alone is Dangerous, Buddy up" or "Work Together, Or Fall Alone" Or something. Like, that alone would fix most of this. Hell, add on you find your upgrades from dead Armor, old armor, abandoned suits and tripping over it.
"You are no one, one of many, you will die, but who knows, you might actually pull it off"
Star Wars Battlefront series pulled it off perfectly though... The older series, I mean.
This would have worked so well
Right! But I don't get why MMO's and Games like this NEED the "1 True Hero" trope? because at the very core of the game, This is not what MMO's are. You are Literally one of (WoW) Millions and that is how it should be played. "Sole Survivor" "The Chosen One" "Secretly a god" work VERY well for First Person Games. Hell, that would even work for the Meta of an MMO but YOU the player should be a deg who is "doing their part" to Start or Stop the apocalypse
Anthem, You AREN'T the Sole Survivor, You are "Pilot 456 out of Millions who FOUND (Stole) a Suit of Armor. Blade and Soul, You AREN'T the Sole Survivor of having your Clan destroyed, you are Backup sent by the Clan to help the Gods. Fallout 76 "The Experiment has Ended > Go Rebuild America" instead of The Late bloomer looking for the Leader in a dead world.
Like, This isn't a hard concept to follow. I get that companies are trying to Reel in the Elusive First Person Market, but they forget that a "Live Service" Model needs Players.... not Sole Survivors.
Like, When you Joined a Guild in an MMO, or hell Second Life that HAD NO PLOT, Players weren't there to be the The Chosen One, it was social interaction and that's about it. Eve Online's 50k sustained users Weren't there for the combat... I mean it was nice, but MOST were in Trade hubs blowing up chat or in Mining groups having deep philosophical debates about toilet paper directions and many of the original players are still there.
Strong alone, stronger together.
"Get Glitched"
-everyone who knew this thing was gonna bomb
Hey man, atleast Yu-gi-oh has card games on the occasional motorcycle!
And hoverboards
And obstacle courses!
@Shirou Emiya, Shitlord of Justice Jack, you're scaring me.
Don't forget "GO, DICE ROLL!"
That "Get Glitched" quote made me cringe i was GODDAMNIT it's cringe.
It’s “cringy” how you call yourself the “AverageGamer”. It really appeals to how much you want people to agree and relate to you. GODDAMMIT that’s cringe.
@@CHarris99 Hmm understandable but like at least it's not "bruce wii" like yours is better than mines tryna sound clever your experiment was interesting but ultimately a failure. Try again
What do you suggest I change it to?
Runtime: 50 minutes and 41 seconds.
Well I guess you do have a minor dislike of the game, fair enough.
Inb4 u get h8
"I have gripes with Anthem" doesn't generate nearly the amount of traffic that every RUclipsr needs to pay off loans. Also, it's not British enough... I learned that lesson when I visited Birmingham five years ago. Either you have a seething hatred (hidden behind a meek exterior), or an unwavering boastful love for something.
Javelin isn’t even a creative name for a mech, they were also the names of grunt suits from Mobile Suit Victory Gundam from 1993
