    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Sure sign your game is a dead, soulless husk is when details of new gameplay are immediately reduced to autistic meta concerns of how to represent them with a performance meter.

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    Diversity hire is fine with portraying a character that looks straight out of a blaxploitation film though.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Didn't realize this guy was still around making videos about WoW Classic for his 5k YT subs four? years on. This is exactly the sort of tireless autism over petty drama that I expect from the legacy MMO community.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Are they shit because they've always been so or only now that the stakes are raised? WoW has always been locked up pretty tight compared to any other game that came before it, so it's funny how much effort is still necessary to restrict players from doing anything that wasn't explicitly...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Yeah, why should you have to be on the look out for any unexpected dangers in a "hardcore" environment anyway. In typical fashion, Blizzard has spent more time removing shit than actually adding incentives to play this ruleset. It'll just happen as a matter of course because they see the rule...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Ironically the game is being made less "hardcore" because most of the new rules close off long-standing avenues for grief with an overarching "play nice...or else" dictum to cover everything else. It's also very likely these changes will eventually be propagated to all Classic servers, and so...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Courting the so-called hardcore contingent never involves improving the core gameplay (the primary source of fun), but merely expanding secondary systems, which usually just amounts to additional makework and auxiliary tasks to complete. What a treat that "casuals" can look forward to one day...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    The players aren't the dummies here; it's the double-retarded devs for thinking they can throw down with the top dogs (even if it's themselves) in an established market by offering such a similar but immature product.

    Twitch.tv

    They're brainlets who believe they can copypaste legacy media conventions without even understanding them and assume it'll just work. It reminds me of how esports apes traditional sports in its presentation and comes across as a joke.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I think it's funny that players usually find the journey to be the most enjoyable part of a game while the majority of online RPG dev time is spent on the post-max/elder game/whatever experience, yet this mismatch is rarely acknowledged by the game makers and the players themselves seem content...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    There will never be an S-tier ARPG, they've been played-out for over 20 years now. Every entry in this deadend genre is immediately reduced to meta considerations of builds and equipment loadouts because the actual gameplay has such little significance in the design. I can imagine a future ARPG...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    "We just fuck things up if you noticed" is Blizzard's company motto at this point.

    Honkai Star Rail

    This game's strange name perfectly encapsulates how weird, gay, and stupid mobile games are.

    Blizzard dev probably going to announce official HC servers tomorrow after this event. That or he's transitioning. It's a 59/41% chance.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Game was already stale and sterile long before the woke bullshit started to seep in. WoW and other vertical-progression, themepark-style games rapidly go stale, it's unavoidable. HC is interesting because it's at odds with elements of the game's design that were thought to be set in stone, so...

    Redfall (Vampires, Open World Co-Op Shooter)

    Just remember, 99% of the time a game has “fall” in its title it’s bound to be trash.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Although the concept of achievements is gay and normally engenders pathetic degeneracy, they actually suit this otherwise meaningless task well. It's not very "hardcore" to tiptoe your way along the path of least resistance to 60, there should be incentives that promote risk-taking and...

    Can't imagine any sane person wanting to play a healer in a group role in a game where taking damage is just a matter of course and now permadeath is on the table.

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    As he said, at least single-player games have a defined conclusion. So it comes down to whether you enjoy being the rat in a maze or the hamster on a wheel (or for our Asian MMO fans, the gerbil up Richard Gere's ass).

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    WoW was never what you'd call a sandbox game. It's derived from EQ, and EQ in turn is descended from a category of MUDs in which the world merely plays backdrop to a monster-bashing simulation and players have no ability or tools to do anything meaningful outside that context. The focus on...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    Was being diddled in the back room of Mr. Miyagi's dojo the reason you now enjoy these "Asian stylings"? As for MoP, the entire concept started as a joke that was seemingly developed into an exercise in humiliating Blizzard's pathetic fanbase while they sat in the Cosby Suite laughing their...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    Asian MMOs have been trash since the very start and always will be. If the gacha grinder garbage isn't enough to turn off a normal Westerner, it's the faggot weeb stylizations comically mismatched with plagiarized Western fantasy themes that does it.

    Project 99 - Green Server announcement

    EQ PvP might be terrible but it fixes more problems than it creates and adds a little spice to an otherwise bland game. Note I only hold this opinion toward authentic EQ, not any of the various PVP-centric “funservers” run by and for degenerate pillheads.

    That’s all Blizzard and their contemporaries have been doing for a long time now. During the development of D3 I remember seeing Jay “Double My Chins” Wilson and Co. talk down to us like junior behavioral scientists describing what we’re supposed to find fun. That’s when I realized the good ol’...

    Lost Ark Online

    Speaking of dumb things that define Korean RPGs, every one of them is thematically cribbed from Western mythos with their only contribution being Japanese knockoffs that look like budget pokemons and discount catgirls. Apparently the sum of their native culture isn't enough to support even a...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Any significant amount of animation locking will always feel bad as long as the human interface continues to just be some peripheral you operate with your hands, and this disconnect only increases with the detail of the physics model. I'd gladly leave a lot of "realism" to the imagination if it...

    You've only arrived as a "game developer" when you've dolled up your otherwise B-movie grade material with enough critically acclaimed tropes to catch the eye of a major TV production company.
