>>724438264
Back in 2009 League of Legends went into open beta and needed a genre tag for marketing purposes. Colloquially people had been calling it a DotA-clone or DotA-like because the game mostly was/is a copy of DotA, but calling your game a copy of another game is bad for marketing as it just drives people to the original so instead they called it a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena)
People here on /v/ thought that genre name was retarded since it doesn't describe the gameplay in any way to separate it from any non-open world multiplayer game like an arena shooter or an RTS skirmish so they came up with the derogatory ASSFAGGOTS acronym:
>Aeon of Strife (Warcraft 3 map that DotA took many mechanics from) Style
>Fortress Assault Game (because the goal is to destroy the other teams fortress)
>Going On Two Sides (because there's two teams)
Now I think people even call Dota 2 a MOBA though so the acronym war was lost, not that ASSFAGGOTS ever really had a chance with the general public.

Because the Wojack rabbit captures existential dread in a way the original never could. You think Lewis Carroll was worried about being 30, late for his job, and spiritually bankrupt on a Monday morning? Nah. Wojack Rabbit is all of us, sprinting toward our doom with a clock in one hand and an empty Starbucks cup in the other.

Binding of Isaac takes 5 seconds to learn if you aren't retarded. The problem is that some of the repentance characters are balanced by retards and all the new items are ass and clutter up the item pool. It's artificial difficulty and turns the game into an RNG fest.

Blue Protocol Star Resonance. The bosses in that game have no-tell cleave attacks which will still hit you if you perfect dodge due to server lag, and the melee dps classes all have a stupid hard FFXIV 2.0 rotation that falls apart when you dodge because a buff falls off. Complain about it and all you hear is "git gud".

Blue Protocol:Star Resonance. Blue Protocol got killed in Japan because the changes Amazon demanded made it unpopular, so the mobile spinoff a korean developer was making got upgraded to a full MMO.

The problem is, its mmo roots are still showing. There's Luno(regular game gold), unbound Luno(auction house gold), bound Rose Orbs (For getting things in the cash shop but not really), Rose Orbs (The actual cash shop currency for buying swimsuits) plus another half-dozen currencies for season passes, crafting skills, and reputation shops. Everything is time gated heavily, and Wind Knight is like someone looked at ARR Dragoon and decided to make it even worse.

90% of the "cutscenes" in the game and a black screen with text describing what happens.

Played it for a couple weeks because I was desperate for an MMO and then gave up when I reached the level cap and found out there was literally nothing except dailies and party finder for hard mode bosses that are the earlier bosess but they do more damage and have more health.

these are not games you spend thousands of hours on in one go
many people play league of legends. league has been around since 2009. if you play 2 games a week that's slightly more than 2220 hours already. this is just a rough number since very few people have been playing since 2009 but it's made up for by the fact that the people who do play usually play more than 2 games a week

Only time I think of done this in a game is playing Astral Chain. Had all these high critic scores so I kept playing. I still quit before 8 hours.
Pic related is 100% Crime and Punishment for me. I kept thinking it had to get good, even right before the end. What an awful book. Double so as Brothers Karamazov is the GoaT yet the two get rated the same.

i play one of these. the endgame is just constant farming for items and its a whole circlejerk of about 50 people trading items between each other in a rat race for the highest stat characters until the end of time.
im repulsed by it, but the actual GAME where you play it to beat the levels is actually decent, its just that only a handful are ever played since they have the best drop rates. i plan on getting characters with just high enough stats to beat every level, no more and no less, and then shelving the game forever, because i have to say that there are much better games out there, but i want to finish it once and for all as a sendoff because i love the TRUE game underneath.
after all, if i have beaten all the possible content, what point would there be in grinding for better equipment anyway? that's the point.

>>724456178
Which game?
>>
>>724457374
the game is dungeon defenders 1, a tower defense/first person/rpg hybrid game.
it was regarded as a comfy xbox live classic in the early 2010s, but then some retarded company decision making happened and now the devs behind it are pumping out failure after failure when they could just put more or less full attention on 1 or 2.
the pc version has a lot more content to go around but is for certain less soulful than the original campaign and bonus maps. i see public lobbies up playing the original campaign on fresh characters all the time despite the concurrent player count being so low, and while there are a handful of lvl 100 pubs running endgame maps on repeat for loot, most of them including myself just open a private game with 4 splitscreens and either afk for loot, or put much more attention on the game for marginally better drop rates.
while grinding was always a part of the game, a comfy part even for the ancient xbox era players who loved to play the survival gamemodes for exp and frequent loot upgrades, the endgame portion has nothing else BUT grinding left as progression. i would like to beat every map on max difficulty on every gamemode so there is no reason left to play it; i would much rather leave it behind with fond memories, rather than waste away in eternity, playing days, weeks or even MONTHS for one single upgrade to drop, forever.
ive seen the top players share reasonably decent gear they find and yet they call it irredeemable shit, and by god i dont want to become one of them.

I think that series is more remembered at this point for the crossover stuff they added to Terraria than the game itself
>>
>>724458253
absolutely 100% true, and its really strange how it turned out that way. all that effort just to crossover the sequel as well, the inferior product, over the original.
i wonder what terraria players think of the event; its probably just a weird side content thing with clearly out of place monsters and a really annoying setup where you have to build an arena EXACTLY to the specifications, which ruins the fun of planning and customizing your own arena.

Fighting games are only good when everyone is figuring out the game during the first weeks when anyone can win mashing buttons.
Then compfags arrive to make sure no one has fun until there is no one left but compfags who in turn hate playing against other compfags because they seek to curb stomp new players and hate when it happens to them.
They are all sore losers.

What's the reason for making up entire communities and types of people in your head for something you don't even care about?
>>
>>724458420
The placeable summons and their respective armor sets are actually really useful for Blood Moons/Solar Eclipses, the goblin/pirate/martian invasion events and farming for rare drops like biome keys and the Rod of Discord. So I consider it worth doing on your average playthrough but the fight with Betsy on the final wave of the hardest difficulty is insanely difficult and none of the drops are worth it

Despite all the releases trailer, historical revisionism, moronic balance patches, shitty gameplay decisions, drip-fed content and end of life coming early, i put over 1,500 hours into this piece of shit because i had friends who couldn't stop playing it (and also hated it).
Pro tip, if you find yourself among piers who all hate the game they're playing, do yourself a favor and quit while you're ahead, its not worth the loss in sanity.

I've been playing a Roblox card game for 10 years. It's all about metafaggery now, the mechanics are so complex due to power creep.
I'm burdened with being 1 of <100 people who know every mechanic and 1 of <5 who knows this game's history. Sad thing it's almost fun? It's like I'm haunted.
