    A problem with this game is that, no matter how many bugfixes they do, the game will always be bug-infested.

    Grounded is a perfect example of how publishers and marketing deadlines can really hurt a good game. I am happy to see yhe developers still working on it for sure. I think this is the point that Larian Studios was trying to make when other developers got salty about Baldur's Gate being an anomaly when in reality it should be the standard to set the bar as high as possible, publishers be damned. A great product will sell itself, word of mouth has always been stronger than some flashy marketing campaign.

      I actually thought Obsidian did a really great job on Grounded, especially with it being the first type of game like this for their studio. Very different from everything else they've made and it was pretty good from the get go, but did need some improvements. With Baldurs Gate 3, we still don't know exactly how good it will be yet, hasnt full released. But at the very least they've had their hand dipped into that formula for 25+ years. So HOPEFULLY it will launch good. With everything they've shown and said, it does look promising. Lots of games do though, so we will have to see. I'm ready to see if it's good.

    Good video as usual, in terms of what you said about story changes to give a reason to play through again, possibly they could integrate a side story to search for the 5th kid which leads you to collecting clues from the optional bosses, and upper yard biome, leading you to the new area which once you clear it could unlock the 5th character, (along with other things like new bugs, boss, equipment, etc) from it.

    I discovered the game a month ago and fell in love with it immediately. Already have 100h in the game, out of all labs I checked only the one in the hedge, been to 6 biomes but completed only hedge fully, the rest is barely explored haha I build a lot, playing with one more person and it's great. Yeah, I see some bugs and issues with the game but it is not that bad. I have this fixation in games on getting to know full potential of everything I already have and only then explore something new. So happy to see the game is being developed still. Hopefully it will be for years and the studio can profit out of this gem, because it is totally worth it.

    Glad you acknowledge that people who heavily play early access games and then cry about "no new content" isn't really a fair criticism. This game released in Sept. of 22, it's not even a year old. For those of us who just bought the game recently, on a Steam Sale, it's an awesome game. In addition - video games used to be you would buy a game, play it through, and then play a new game when you're done. Not every game has to be like WoW that you play new content for 3 decades. A game can be great even if you just play it through once as long as it's fun!

    Yknow what. I agree. I think the fact that the devs are still working on it even after all the complaints show how they are dedicated to their game and want it to leave a good final impression.
    As to how they are allowed to still work on it, I think because the grounded team is a fairly small team (despite Obsidian being much larger), Mictosoft is allowing this small team to continue to work on the game. Also probably because big uodatss to grounded might encourage suckers to buy gamepass

  • @asuramp3
    @asuramp3 Год назад +2

    I'm going to be extremely honest here:
    I really enjoyed your Grounded older content. You were informative, to-the-point, and seemed to share a passion for the game as I--and the rest of your audience--did. But as time went on, that passion seemed to die down and I believe that you became hypercritical of the game. You slowly went from logical takes about the future state of the game, to downright hating on it with a (maybe indirect) sense of hostility. As a result, your newer content had a different feeling; always felt negative, hypercritical, and you just seemed to radiate with such a pessimistic and almost brazenness that made me dislike you. And as a previous frequent viewer of your content, watching you slowly go from giving constructive feedback to eventually just hating on the smallest of small issues was really really upsetting to me. The game itself already has a small community, and you began to use the numbers you amassed *from this game* to eventually turn a portion of the community against it. Whether or not you or anyone reading this agrees with my points, I think that Grounded gets more hate than it deserves.
    But seeing this pop-up in my feed was a surprise, I am glad to see that you proved MY assumptions about you wrong too with this video. You gained back my respect and I could tell that you made this video with genuineness, and was not just trying to tell people what they wanted to hear. At the end of the day, I think we both have something to learn from this experience and I hope that my honesty will help you shape your future content as well. I do not despise you and never did, I just disliked the message you were putting out for possible newcomers or enjoyers of the game. Thank you.
    Also, I want to let it be known that I believe some of the points you made were extremely valid and I am not trying to disagree with you just to disagree, but I wish that you brought these issues up with a positive or constructive demeanor.

    The game is not the worst, not the best either. It is sketchy at best, you weren't wrong, i put those hours, my videos reflect it. But the game has immersion breakers, bugs on top of bugs and system and engine issues. The nostalgia effect of "honey i shrunk the kids" is gonna keep bringing ppl in, and from a marketing perspective it can only go up in numbers if they keep it up to date and that is not a difficult thing. You weren't wrong overall, you just did not understand the greed effect! Peace, cya in the next one brother!

      I never really got this argument. The game released fully. They got their money. There is no reason for them to even do any fixes or updates except their sheer love of the game. This isn't a live service battle pass game. We gamers expect every game to operate like a constantly updating FTP mobile game, it's insane.
