      The smartest thing they did for the future of that game, and I mean this completely seriously, was in the first 5 seconds of the opening cutscene, showing that the helldiver has a black wife and a mixed-race child. Can you imagine the gaming media's reaction to the entire game, IF his wife had been white? I am not joking.

    I totally agree with the Battlepass, it's a thing that actually made me quit certain games, I just do not have the time to play 3 different games that all have a ~2 month Battlepass that requires you to play like 100-150 hours, then faster progress and most of the actually cool things are locked behind buying it every month too, you could say just ignore it, but I grew up with games like MW2 where you could unlock EVERYTHING just by playing and WHENEVER you could/wanted to, that was my prime for gaming.

      @@josephgoodman2777 that's totally fine, but my comments focus was not on paying money, it was on every damn game having a Battlepass that takes many hours to complete and is limited in time, but if you work every day of the week like me and sometimes 10h or more you don't have the time to keep up with them all, so I had to cut it down, which is a bit sad as I grew up with games where it did not matter when you played, you could still unlock it.
      I think it'd be more fair to have a Battlepass but allow ALL of the items to be unlocked once the season is over by playing the game normally or buying a skin, I don't like time-limited exclusive items in games, it's predatory, there is no need for it.
      Edit: This also goes more towards games you already have to pay for, rather than free games like Fortnite where it's a lot more understandable.

    • @yland3r
      @yland3r 2 месяца назад +2

      I agree but with Linux specifically, any distro COULD run everything through wine/proton without major extra added work, and the only real issues always boil down to anti-cheat companies that refuse to spend resources on developing it for those environments (or in other cases, inept developers that refuse to allow AC compatibility even if the AC in question is already native), so we do need to account for how greedy management can be if they don't see immediate gain. I understand this being an issue for smaller studios with in-house AC's though (and I personally never bother to criticize too much for that), but a lot of developers outsource to already-established ones anyway.
      I use Linux daily (and only really keep a Windows boot for one very niche use), and game just fine without native ports, but AC's are where the real trouble is. That's just a different aspect of the whole reason why games are not on all platforms though, sadly.

      This is *sort of* true.
      You need a good answer to armor if you want to go past like... difficulty 5. Enemy armor and how much anti-armor you possess pretty much determines how well that'll go. The game is a smidge imbalanced in that the Railgun is undeniably the best personal anti-armor pick in the game at the moment, which requires at least level 20.
      But it's 1.0, and the devs have all but admitted there is some balancing needs to be done so I think that'll be fixed soonish.
      But beyond that, you're generally correct. Besides that small issue, it really does come down to player skill and/or teamwork to determine wins and losses.

One of the best Melee combat games in a co op game there is with so many different weapons with different combos and different Cleave/stagger/finesse stats?

      @@TheDustyChinchilla It's not awful, as someone who's had thousands of house in VT2, the melee is simplified somewhat, but it's not awful. Gunplay is fantastic. Yes the loot system is not great, but really that's because a lot of people have the wrong mindset of a good weapon, chasing high modifiers that aren't needed, you just need a good enough modifier spread which can be achieved in a day. 80 damage is the worst offender, Breakpoints are still Breakpoints and very few weapons benefit from 80% Damage, Damage modifier stats can be a lot more important most of the time as the spread is wider, where Damage can be only like 5-10% but the modifiers a lot more.
      Darktide is not a bad game, right now it's just slow with content. So many mods are available that bring a lot of QoL go the game or fix some "issues". Yes the game needs more work, but it's of course not as Matured compared to Vermintide.

      Solo level 9 helldive missions on malevalon creek are pretty fun but you have to play so cautiously and bring very specific meta equipment with a few possible variations (the deployable shield is good for certain missions because you can pop it down on a terminal and bum rush the terminal but it’s niche and there are a few other options) you are REQUIRED to bring a personal shield and a railgun or if your incredibly confident with your aim the anti material rifle and you need eagle rocket pods or orbital laser for tanks preferably both because you can just orbital laser large factories and it will generally just knock out the whole thing and the rocket pods have really high up time for dealing with hulks tanks and structures without feeling like you have wasted a valuable resource because you have so many of them and they come back so fast. If you bring only one of those two then your last thing should be eagle cluster (preferably not in tandem with the rocket pods so you don’t end up wasting uptime on one when you run out and need to rearm) in general though it’s frustrating because you need to run either stealth armor to not be seen in the first place or the cheat death armor to prevent rockets from ruining your whole game. You also HAVE to have a shield backpack or you will both die to rockets constantly and be constantly getting aim punched by laser fire making hitting anything much less a tiny weak spot pretty impossible. I would like to be able to run more goofy stratagems but if you do that you will get obliterated by 19 rocket devastators and heavy devastators from 8 different directions blasting you with pinpoint precision fire from 60+ meters

    I feel a big point is also that - about a decade or so ago - the business world discovered that "video games" were starting to be big money, and a shift happened, CTO, CFO, COO etc were "willing to lend their expertise as in leading a company" and started nestling themselves in those tripple A publishers, and over time more management came from the field of business purely, rather then from the field of gaming - and so it happend what had to happen. People with no connection to the medium of gaming, being the big desicionmakers for games. Fielding their invenstments of what to make and greenlite and the direction it should take more and more on, the maximazation of profit (appeal to as many people as possible, follow current trends, use psychologists to heck out what gets people the spend the maximun amount of money on their game etc) and the acutal content of the game became secondary.
    I feel this is much more on the publishers then it is on the devs. We see there still enough devs making awesome stuff. very often they had a time working for one of the big ones and went indie to make what they wanted to make.
    There is also the thing of triple A publishers having an ungodly amount of middle management - infesting them like a cancer that just drains money out of every game - needing it to make an crazy sum of money just to break even. We have the same in the Hollywood movie industrie right now. Movies costing several hundreds of million, having no business costing this much.

      A JP game called FGO (the OG of big cash earner for stockholders) has already discovered and improved the way to earn big cash borrowing ideas from CN web games. (I used to play several CN games that manipulate players just for the money. Thought this practice would die down but nope, it spreaded to the entire industry like wildfire. rip)

      The issue here is that any CFO worth their salt would blast the heck out of the way that many AAA games run their studios. There is nothing wrong with maximizing a game for profit. But the C-suite generally understand that in order to maximize profit, you need something that the customer wants, has long term functionality, and builds a brand that customers are willing to return due to the previous good products. They're looking for customers to be invested. That's not what we see in AAA games. Whoever is running these only sees short term profits which is brand suicide. It's not good for the company nor any shareholders if you make lots of money at first then watch it all tank later. And they definitely would allow any low level functionary from HR or some other group to have as much sway over content like we see now. The C-suite from the gaming world is considered as much of a joke by actual corporations as gaming journalists are to regular journalists.

    Im enjoying the game a lot. The buginess of it can be intolerable at times such as being able to accept friend requests, swarms just randomly appearing in your back pocket, having your mouse clicks register on the world map when choosing a mission glitches out often. Having to restart the game to get the clicking to work has begun to make me just put the game down and do something else so im hoping a hotfix comes in fast.

      not only that, but the premium currency itself is also pretty cheap, if you don’t want to bother finding it ingame it’s only $15 in my country for the premium battlepass (1000 of the currency, which alternatively is enough for multiple of the most expensive items in the store)

      You can earn 100 per page on the first 5 pages of the normal Warbond then 50 on the last 5 pages. so that's 750 Supercredits on the warbond alone.

So like it’s not like a daily or weekly gem grind like gacha games it’s, X amount of runs = more super credits/medals/requisition. Also I do want to point out that even the premium currency gear is just cosmetics and the “premium” pass doesn’t have that many great weapons compared to basic pass. So I like it when games reward u with premium currency for constantly playing. And since there’s no leaderboards or PVP who is there to compete with?
