What the fuck happened?
I trusted Gearbox and bought Battleborn and it was down under 2,000 players in 2 weeks and under 1,000 players in 4 weeks.
How to we save Battleborn?
We don't. Let this be a lesson to Gearbox.
>>344843002
haha what a loser op is
>>344843002
Gearbox made a Moba just as Blizzard made a Moba, it just came out at the wrong time.
How do you make a turn-based RPG hard?
lvl 50 monsters when your party is lvl 10
lots and lots of grind
>>344843109
How do you beat them then?
tl;dr - I need grindan' games.
Been playing grinding games all my life. Can't help it. I need to see that exp bar keep climbing until it can't climb no more. It's how I do things in life, it's how I play video games. I grind all levels, I grind all unlocks, I grind all secrets, I grind all achievements. I'm never done with a game until I see that 100% completion.
And I'm bored with my current crop. A lot of my friends are gone now, a lot of servers are dead, a lot of games are 100%'d, and I've regained some self-control and have limited myself to only about a dozen games that are mostly single-player now. But those are also almost done and I only need one or two things from them (e.g. beat OP8, Providence monster log, "play this game for a year") or I'm waiting for dev support to die out so they'd stop tacking on new objectives.
I need new games to play and not just any grinding games: Ones with a decent rewarding grinding system that makes me feel like it's still fun to waste time on it and ones that have interesting gameplay. Maybe one of those games where you grind by running missions repeatedly for exp/money with an extra chance for rare drops on top. I guess a simplistic analogy would be like doing crossword puzzles or sudokus every day even though there's no point in doing them after you solve the first few because now you know how to find the solution every time but you keep doing them anyway. Like Recettear's dungeon system (100%'d the shit out of that over two years), or Diablo/Torchlight/Bordermemes style grinding. Except no actual MMOs please, I'm done with those, especially the ones centered around PvP only and/or "teamwork" that require putting up with other people, and they have no end. I think I've played enough MMOs in the past two decades to last me a lifetime.I say that but I'm still on-and-off playing MOBAshits because I can't quit them.
What are some grinding games you guys enjoy playing on a regular basis? Old and recent.
Progress Quest.
Cookie Clicker.
>>344842524
I ended up writing bots for a lot of the browser clicker games I played when I went through the cookie clicker phase along with everyone else.
Some of them were pretty ridiculous though. There was one where it turns out the requirements to hit milestone levels for achievements was impossible to do with normal play because the universe will end before you can enough clicks in. The developer to that particular game replied "You're not meant to 100% it, just play it for fun" and refused to fix the curve. It was funny because some people tried to cheat and basically had it collecting 10^26 clicks a second and were still several thousand days away from hitting the next milestone achievement. I was starting to ween myself from my MMOs (and some were just dropping off out of the blue) so I managed to get away from the clicker games soon after.
>grind
>fun

Reminder.
>HAL is independent like Game Freak, Warpstar was founded not just to handle the Kirby IP but also to make sure that HAL stood independent as well.
>Game Freak made a PS4 game, there is no reason why HAL can't make a PS4 game.
>HAL has made a Ghostbusters game before.
>If a NX port were to be made they will be loads of Kirby content just for that version.
Your views on this.
Might be cool. What we really need is a new Eggerland game for the eshop.
>>344838403
That be nice, Steam is also OK too.
>>344838187
the game is out
its shit
When you lose in a fighting game do you blame lag, your opponent for not playing "real" insert fighting game here, your controller or stick, the weather
OR
Do you accept that you're bad?
>>344837580
blame the top tier character
>>344837580
>lose
Just what do you take me for?
Blame my self for being worthless piece of shit who can't learn how to play fighting games and will never amount to anything, will die alone, can't learn japanese, and want to kill myself.
ITT: Buyers remorse
I'll start with this shitty game.
Waste of time.
shallow and terrible just like all modern TW games.
trash
>First person platforming
Why is this allowed
That was probably the worst part of Doom, but it wasn't the worst I have seen overall. The original half life had some REALLY bad platforming, and Turok 1 was even worse.
>>344837017
would you rather all the levels be 2 dimension corridors?
what a stupid fucking thread
>>344837017
I enjoyed the platforming in D44M. Although I also enjoyed the driving sections in HL2, so my opinion may be invalid.
>No wild battles
>No real gym battles
>'Battles' are just tapping the screen over and over
>No leveling
>No move customization
>No strategy
>No hold items
>No trading
>No reducing HP to catch Pokemon
>No battling friends
>No friends list
>More advanced types of Pokeballs hidden behind level walls
>Not even all of Gen 1 available
>Whole 'game' is just throwing balls
2/10 - Awful
I tried to like it, I really did. Even aside from the fact that its mostly broken, it's just a terrible game at its core. This isn’t Pokemon its just shovelware garbage.
Did you actually expect a full Pokemon AR clone?
Nigga
but at least you'll lose weight from all that walking!
that's because you were expecting a game and not just an excuse to go out and walk around and socialize
You know what, fuck it... Im gonna say what every person whos been gaming for over ten years is currently thinking but still refuses to say out loud...
Fuck Japan. Fuck Japan with an AIDS dick.
All these decades of timeless classics of various ground breaking franchises- Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Zelda, Chrono Trigger, Mario, Final Fantasy, Shenmue, Onimusha, Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden, Dark Souls, Sonic, Jet Set Radio and so much, much more- games that could have very much well been labelled as art without sounding like a meme- and this is what it has now come down to in 2016...
This.... this... steaming pile of touchscreen, smart phone, cutesy horse shit.
Since when has it been OK to go BACKWARDS in progress? What the fuck happened? Where did Japanese gaming all go so wrong?
How do you from a boundary pushing franchise like Metal Gear Solid to a mobile touchscreen fag fest like Puzzles And Dragons? How do you from biggest
No, seriously... explain the fucking psychology to me, because I just dont get it. Im trying desperately to wrap my head around it... Why is the market in Japan craving touch screen mobile games over console or even PC games? How did they go from determining what sets the quality of a professional, ground breaking video game, to infantile touch screen horseshit?
HOW??? And how is everybody so fucking cool with it???
>inb4 "HURR stop liking what I dont like"
But thats exactly it though. If you prefer touch screen mobile games I sincerely think youre a retarded, simple sack of shit and should kill yourself. These are the types of people that retard society.
Ill give a pass on portable consoles, but I still dont know how someone could find those appealing over home consoles or PC.
you ok dude
>>344836368
lol you're funny
>>344836368
I just pulled a Guan Yu. Is he a good starter or should I reroll?
>if enough players report you, you lose the ability to talk to anyone
>if this happens three times you lose it forever
Blizzard is trying super hard to kill this game
>>344836109
WAHHHH WHY CANT I BE A DICKHEAD
kys sperg
>>344836109
>if enough players report you for """""toxic behavior"""", you lose the ability to play the game
>if this happens enough times you lose it forever
>new update makes it so you get muted instead
why are people getting mad at this?
can you ask support to inspect your case?
If not, that sucks. But if you can, then don't be a jerk and you'll be fine.
Play Overwatch competitive without wanting to kill yourself. Pro tip: you can't.
>Round 2, attacking Hollywood

Competitive sure is fun.

Was Blizzard even thinking when they made this
Don't really care if no one replies to thread, just had to talk about how shit this is
>>344834883
battle grandma
>>344834972
Impractical grandma
Overwatch players will literally eat shit if Blizzard told them to provided there were some CG tiddies at the end of it.
I'm about to do it /v/. I never pre order or buy season passes. But this game is the first game I'm excited for in years. Talk me out of it.
>>344834230
won't be as good as human revolution and will likely be glitchy on release. It is your fucking money, up to you what you do with it.
cheaper on g2a and that way the denuvo-supporting faggots at SE don't receive your money
>>344834230
Sure, pre-order it, but why the fuck are you buying a digital deluxe edition?
Next waves of "suits", first set due out tomorrow.
Bamboo
Waffle
JUST
>>344834142
I think it's really cute
>a ghost pretending to be a pikachu
What's wrong with it exactly
That's good though.
