i feel bad because i like this game and loved to finish seasons and get everything but i just don't care anymore. i think it's more of a personal issue with life than the game, but i just don't care to play it anymore. :(
>>3096992Think about it. They aren't going to release anything meaningful for d4 anymore. The cosmetics wont transfer over so battle passes don't even matter.
>>3097373>They aren't going to release anything meaningful for d4 anymore.Mamazon?
>>3097373i just don't know how they're going to work out keeping both d4 alive and also doing new stuff with d5, lore-wise. because if d5 is the continuation of the story... then d4 HAS to be rinse-and-repeat season stuff like d3 is now. cause if d4 kept going with new seasons that "add to the story".. then what is d5 doing?? it's just such a weird place for the diablo franchise to be in rn. make it make sense
I know not a single person would agree to this statement, but I don't give a fuck. I would pre-order a Diablo game where it's a cringe anime-esque shonen of Diablo and his brothers as teenagers rising the ranks or usurping some established council. I know it contradicts the established lore and you might as well make this video game without the Diablo title at all, but let me cringepost.

>>3081866>skilli can assure you after having played about 1500+ hours in ninjala there is very little actual skill involved. top tier weapon whores + fiber optics ping + moderate skill = certain win.
>>3098433No arguments here, but that's part of why I use the weapons that barely function. It's a shame that most other players only seem to use whatever gets them the easiest wins. Also, you forgot the literal performance enhancing drugs that are Lab buffs
Did Ninjala update or is it some weirdness on my end?
>>3104336They had maintenance for the various exploits that affected the entire internet, and they also made the game available in a few more places while they were at it

noob^
Now that Greymoor is part of the base game, surely Summerset is next, right?They gave everyone access to scrying while jewelry crafting is still locked away.
>>3103870There's too many people that like it, or at least zos seems to think there's enough that its worth leaving shit broken to please them. Same with all the nonsense in pvp.
>>3105866That seems like such a weird thing to attach yourself to. Class identity, rigidity of your rotation, whatever, but weaving auto attacks being the straw that breaks the camels back? I'll never get it idk
>>3100600> haven't played in a few yearsChecked. Just be careful if you play on steam. High chance of the game literally not launching. Not even with the faggoty custom launcher from zos official site
>What is Lost ArkA pay-to-win MMOARPG set in a grindy, gatekeeping world with poorly designed fights where a single mistake by a single player wipes the whole 8-player raid and wastes the 20 minutes of progress you had, that times 18 raids you must do every week to stay relevant.>FAQIs it dead?Yes, see https://steamcharts.com/app/1599340#All -- half of that are bots, and the remainder is spread across two regions (used to be five, what does that tell you?). The current publisher's license expires this year and the game will likely EoS.Who is left playing the game?Mazed sunk cost retards. They are in too deep, they are beyond saving.How much p2w is this game?Not a single player can progress in this game unless someone, whether it's you or someone else, pays real money for their accessories/build through a currency called pheons.Is the game censored?Yes, skins are censored, half the dictionary is blacklisted from chat, and they made multiple NPCs black that weren't originally.Comment too long.

>>3086333Piss river destroyed his own reputation. External circumstances like covid is why he lucked out and saved lost ark the first time. He's all for the rng, alt shit fest, milking players so he can buy a yacht.
>>3086333>>3094787he never had any you dorksits all marketing buzz
>Aion 2 lost 100k players in 18 days>Lost Ark lost 15k players in that amount of timeWe gucci boyz.
>>3085439The issue is that video is from Portia and the guy pretty much confirms koreans ruin the game since he claims killing RMT will kill the game and he wants SG to actually promove RMT selling, it's retarded.I prefer this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTXoD7JuzqQHe pretty much sums up the whole recent drama.
>>3106037He's a based accelerationist. He knows Koreans are hopeless retards that love and demand p2w and RMT, so he is asking them to turbocharge it so it dies faster and everyone can move on.
>STALKER x Tarkov I'm still doing only PvE because I'm not prepared to throw tons of loadouts at sweatlords.
Is the PvE cooperative and crossplay? And how's the console experience? I think my brother might like the setting of the game, but I'd rather introduce him in a more controlled manner before we have to face packs of people teaming
>>3103763only you and your squad in pve and yes there is crossplay. i think for console you have to turn it on as it is disabled by default.

>>3074851I don't understand your point.
>>3074851It is truly impressive that they could manage to bloat this piece of shit game up to 111 gb. That is well past even TW:Warhammer lmao what a fucking piece of shit. Well, at least faggots like the people in the thread will continue to reward this turd of a game and its creators so the horrors will never end, great job dickholes

>>3105826Nah the other anon is correct, class is too easy to pick up which is why every harry hyperboost does exactly that. Then they spin and do nothing the entire match. And the class is so limited that even when you actually know which buttons to press, you still can't do that much.
>>3105461they need to actually upgrade the graphics if bdo wants to compete, it used to be a selling point, but now it's not other games are destroying them
>>3109858I'm not really a fan of plastic looking landscapes and models, but seeing some of the Aion 2 asses and thongs and those lewd lumbar lordosis poses, it really made me sad. We get the most horrible elbows and thick fabric outfits that don't even show the ass properly. We've been totally outgooned.
>>3110204We have been outgooned but as that's really one of the few things Aion 2 has going for it we are safe. I do like the fantasy-style worlds, vibrantly coloured forests with lots of glowing bits are super cool whilst BDO has a more grounded style.
I've been saving up my Aethers, and I've passed 1500 which is 50 Shining taps, at a cost of 150 billion. If I spend this and they announce a Patrigio event next week please be grateful for my sacrifice

if you included all SMITE gods across games in one pool and compared to other mobas, technically SMITE gods on average have 2x the skillshots of League champions and 3x the skillshots of Dota 2 heroes
Dark and DarkerHopes and reams for new classes/maps?Or just complain about class balance, hadn't seen a DaD thread in awhile
read the patch notes for the season start and straight uninstalled. all the new stuff looks cool but I've played with these nutty stats before, and that was without the mondo-retarded 500ms cap and 95% resistances. I knew right from the get go it wasn't going to be fun and every clip I've seen from this season has only proven me right. maybe next season lads
>>3074539>Never played the game>Crying about streamer clips>Repeats same shit he heard on RedditGenuinely what causes these mentally ill trannies to be so emotional about this video game? SDF must have cut off thousands of Redditor's dicks or something, considering how badly he hurt their feelings.
>>3093011SDF is based for not giving a fuck about what people think if him but he did rape the game and made it completely unplayable
"oooh let's all move to Hunger fuck this game we don't need it anymore!!">get into the Hunger playtest>start the tutorial>immediately find a semi-automatic long distance firearm>immediately close and uninstallWhat exactly is it that these retarded devs refuse to understand?

How hard can it be to make something like this, when this retarded gook and his team of 30 incompetent braves hit a homerun and have simply tripped on the way home?
>check RMT sites>10k gold for $2.50 four hours ago>$2 two hours ago>$1.25 nowEven the RMT sellers are getting raped this wipe.
This shit is completely dead, anyone interested to revive it?
