A shitty RO clone turned into a themepark mmo.

>A few flaws, but there are probably hundreds more:
Can't trade with people unless you pay for a premium token subscription thing.

Can't transfer silver between characters.

Can't do more than 2 instances a day unless you buy a premium token, in which case it's 3.

Can only sell 1 thing at a time on the market place, or 10 if you have a token. When it does sell, you need to wait 48 real hours to get your money.

Yesterday someone found a command that lets you disband a guild even if you aren't the leader. /destroy guild. All of the /tosg/ guilds were destroyed. This is how incompetent IMC is.

The game is unoptimized as fuck and only gets 1-2 fps even on monster rigs during world bosses.

But all of these things are just fine to /tosg/. They'll shit on you so hard for complaining about anything.

The problem with Overwatch criticism is that it's usually sourced from fucking idiots who didn't play the free beta and unironically spout the most ridiculous shit as fact. It also comes from a few Battleborn owners suffering from buyers remorse and/or jealously, and feel compelled to shit on the game that was more successful.

Nah. I have an IRL friend who is into his RPG's and he's a fucking rabid Bethesda fanboy. Any criticism I level against it is somehow excused or apologised for with a fallacy or non-justification. From what I've seen the NV fags are salty at their game being less popular and less appreciated than the Bethesda-made equivalent.

The issue is retarded fanboys assume that anyone making any criticism of a game must suck at it. I got told to git gud and that I didn't know how to play when I criticized elements of level design in Hotline Miami 2. At the time of that thread, I was first place on half a dozen hard mode leaderboards for the game, and I was the first player to break the 1mil points mark in any level. I wasn't the best player but I sure as fuck knew how to play. Still, any criticism was met with "lol stop whining cause you can't beat a level literally get gud scrub"

And why exactly does that mean you aren't allowed to tell people the reason you enjoy a game is because it's fun?

They are asking for your subjective opinion, so why am I not allowed to say "Because I'm having fun with it."

Kys.

They're right though. The game gives you options, make use of them for the optimal personal experience. It doesn't change the mechanic is shit but you don't have to let it ruin the rest of the game if you can completely ignore it and it plays fine. Though of course that isn't always possible. Some shit mechanics are so far ingrained it ruins the experience altogether.

Yet MHfags keep getting away with this. "Game is hard because GQ140 Apex Rajang can two-shot you even if you're wearing the best gear in the game." That's like post-post-endgame content. I'm not saying it's not a challenging game, it definitely is, but I am so fucking tired of MHfags going "our game is the hardest game ever look at this video of someone soloing literally the hardest content possible in the game as proof that the average Monster Hunter quest takes more skill than playing Battletoads with your dick"

Actually no. "Bix nood" carries no meaning in English, or any other language that I know, which, granted, isn't a lot. "It's fun" however carries a lot of meaning. It means you got a very specific kind of enjoyment out of your game. See, there's a fuck loads of different kinds of enjoyment you can get out of things, and "fun" is just one of them.

No, because "I enjoyed this game" and "This game is fun" are not the same things you moron. It's possible to say "This game was no fun at all to play, but I really enjoyed it for these reasons."

Fun is a kind of enjoyment.
Fun = enjoyment, but enjoyment =/= fun.

I enjoy the shit out of paintings, but they're not fucking "fun". I really enjoyed playing Journey, but it wasn't "fun".

I never said fun was a description, but when you ask someone why they liked a game, "I had fun" is a valid answer, because it answers the question of "what kind of enjoyment did this game give you".

Saying anything else as to why you liked the game does the same exact thing.

If you like a game, but you can't tell people why you like the game, chances are you're either retarded or you only like the game for the sake of liking what everyone else likes or liking what everyone else hates.

If you can't give a detailed description as to why you like your favorite game without using the word fun or filler words like great, challenging, hard, controls, etc, chances are you don't like your "favorite" game as much as you thought you did.

Criticism is fine as long as you're fair about it and point out more than just your distaste for a game, but what you tards are doing is where the problem lies. You go directly to a thread meant for fan boys and shit all over a game just to spark a negative reaction and that's why you get stupid answers.
Everyone acknowledges the issues that you see and you're not on some clever point that nobody else has thought of, it just doesn't bother the people who enjoy the game enough to stop liking said game.

This video is technically possible I guess but very unlikely to be genuine, you would have to fail so many extremely likely rolls in a row to produce this. It seems more likely that the NPC has been given a very high luck stat through the console or a mod.
Even if it's real, it's feasable that this can happen in any game that has anything less than 100% RNG chance to hit, you'd just be very unlucky for it to happen. Any kind of RNG in games is always shit and not a substitute for proper skill-based combat resolution.
That being said, not even die-hard fans think the combat in this game is good, so you're just trying to convince them of something they already know. Morrowind combat is something you put up with so you can enjoy the rest of the game.

The sad part is Kushala is a GREAT fight once you're decked out with windres or decent poison weapons. It is genuinely one of the most enjoyable elder dragon fights for me. But I completely agree with the sentiment that giving him that amount of windpress combos was bullshit. It's taking a fantastic fight and fucking ruining it unless you have just the right setup.

But there was always that anon saying "you can fight Kushala without windres or poison just hit the head and git gud" without specifying he was using a CB or GS. Try doing that shit with DBs.

A lot of faggots in "hard games" fanbases like Dark Souls or MH somehow end up believing that the most bullshit elements of their beloved games are good things because they think difficult = good, always, no exceptions.

I should have clarified that I meant catharsis on anger. Venting into someone on an anonymous imageboard is hardly a constructive way to get rid of anger, it just makes more anger for everyone else.

Crying and shit works just fine for relief, but screaming at someone because you are stressed out is not the way to do it.

Level design is kind of fucked in hm2

It is beatable though but it is a game that rewards quick and almost improvised run. I couldn't do that most the time I had to learn the flow and build a plan of approach. Later levels required a lot of baiting on my part to get guys with guns to close the distance when I had no means of taking them out from a distance.

Wouldn't be so bad if you could take a few hits or the aim of ai wasn't so accurate all the time.

>>337861493
The level design encourages baiting too much. Hard mode levels are often the same fucking thing with more windows added everywhere with no concern for how that will affect the flow of the level. They add difficulty, sure, but this can't come at the expense of ruining the flow because that's the most important thing in this fucking game.

Many of the best routes I practiced to get my leaderboarding runs relied on RNG, as they required getting yourself out in the open more than is comfortable and just crossing your fingers and hoping that the random spread on enemy weapons rolled in your favor. I liked the part about figuring out the best route and mastering it, I sure as fuck didn't like the part where random spread on weapons kept fucking up attempts.

HM1 never suffered from those problems to the same extent.

This has happened with every Souls game. There has always been a nearly uncounterable cheese build floating around that everyone knew about, but players mostly declined to use it because it made the game boring. But then you got in competitive environments like the arenas in DaS2, and everyone was spinning a monscimmy or powerstancing halberds, generally in full havel if you were in the Darkmoon arena.

You pointed out that these builds were unbalanced and faggots replied "But you can counter them." The issue is that the best counter to something like havelmonster helix/halberd is still less safe and efficient than just putting on your havel cosplay and powerstancing the same weapons. But no, when you brought that up, fags went "lol i can parry them easy get gud".
