Ok my game has special scoring system around killing as fast as you can as well as creativity and dodging bullets and taking hits.

How does an arcade scoring system ruin gaming?

How does arcade ruin gaming in general litterally the center of fun and competitiveness.

>multiplayer-focused
while there's nothing inherently wrong with this, what it means nowadays is that there's a tacked-on 2 hour single player campaign for the sake of having one. Make the game multiplayer-only and drop the fucking charade.

>matchmaking
matchmaking is shit, your 'player skill' algorithms mean jack shit and don't do anything, and it removed the possibility of having dedicated servers for specific things. It is cancer that killed multiplayer.

>cinematic
go make a fucking movie. Oh wait, you'd be laughed out of the industry for being such a hack.

>reboot
aka let's take something people loved, and instead of letting it rest in peace or getting the original devs to help build a modern version of the older game(s), we will get a bunch of hacks to make a shallow, 'appeal to everyone under the sun' type game, and tell the original fans to go fuck themselves because they'll buy it anyways like the desperate, grovelling sluts they are.
This is usually followed by intense backpedaling when the game inevitably flops, and blaming the fans of the old game for not buying 3 copies when the audience they tried to appeal to did not want the game.
also
>game
>game 2
>game 3
then the reboot is just called
>game
is part of this cancer, trying to pretend the original has been replaced by a "better", more modern version. Fuck anyone that does that, I won't even try the game.

>stealth elements/segments
If the game is not a stealth game, there is rarely a legitimate reason to have this. It only slows the game down and is a waste of the player and developers time, and usually involves cinematic kills or some other stupid nonsense.

>inspired by X
aka this is a low-effort shitheap of a game, but because it has some similarities to an older game that you like, I will try and cash in on that older game and sucker you out of money.

It pisses me off so damn much. It's an automatic no-buy for me at this point, which excludes like 90% of games with multiplayer because now it's shoved down our throats 24/7 once jewish fucks realized it was a great way to fluff out a game with no content or depth as well as a means for selling more DLC.

I just want to play the game I paid for. All of it. The way I fucking want to without grinding. On a level playing field where NO ONE is gimped for strategic options. Why the fuck is that so god damn hard?

irony that it is fine in overwatch because all the unlocks are purely cosmetics, and KD/R or killstreaks dont matter overall.
I agree though, the best sniper in BF4 is locked behind a grind of markman ribbons, I am shit at sniping, may never unlock the weapon and will always be at a disadvantage to those who have got the weapon.

I don't care if it's just cosmetic shit(Though it's still pretty bullshit, IMO.). When it's actual gameplay content? That shit makes me nope the fuck out of a purchase quick as shit.

It's single handedly the most obnoxious shit you can put into a game with a multiplayer focus. What peeves me the most is casuals eat that shit up because they are so used to garbage that they thing games NEED unlocks or else there is 'nothing to do'.

That mentality blows my mind. The point of the game is supposed to be entertainment, not chasing a carrot on a stick hoping you'll unlock the 'fun' part of the game later down the road. Jesus christ fuck this gay ass industry.

Harvest Moon: Back to Nature had flashbacks in sepia tone. Those were much mroe fitting as it still had a bright image which reflected the overall feel of the game. Underexposed high ISO film with cheap lens look is drab by comparison.
