Sounds like it can be completely ignored from the game though?
I disagree wholeheartedly with microtransactions, outside of perhaps cosmetics in otherwise free to play games.
It’s not it’s weird there’s such uproar about this game when MXT have been around for years and this is probably one of the instances where it has absolutely zero impact on gameplay or me as a player. If people are stupid enough to buy meaningless stuff like this it’s on them. My opinion is relatively simple. I hate MXT and would rather they go entirely, however that’s a pipe dream. In that scenario I’d rather see small and meaningless stuff for lazy people than actual game altering stuff or even cool armour sets you can’t get any other way.
Of course it's weird you've taken it personally. The discussion was about DD2 so it's not at all odd that the microtransactions in other games aren't being discussed. You literally said I was spreading misinformation about it, only to completely misrepresent what the fast-travel DLC was yourself.
Yeah I hear ya
It's hard to disagree with your point that publishers are testing the market to see what kind of bs they can pull and have consumers accept. The $30 or whatever it was 3 day early access for Starfield last year stood out to me for the same reason.
I haven’t taken it personally, I’m not defending the use of MXT, but I’ll use common sense to defend the against the outcry here. I think it is misinformation to say “pay for fast travel” it’s nothing like that extreme. At best the tag line is “pay for a minor convenience and laziness”. I’m just making sure that people reading the sensationalist headlines are not being put off a potential all timer of an RPG. Would be sad for people if that misrepresentation stopped them buying it.
How far you thought the game?
Made it to the capital city, rank 8 as an archer, switched to warrior... It's just not really dragging me in. The combat is a bit shit when you compare it to many other current games, the world a bit empty and fake difficulty by just not having fast travel unless you have the item so you will stumble on some big creature. Just feels inconvenient. Oh and when you beat these creatures, you hardly get anything worth keeping. Just very... "Meh".
Biggest letdown of the century if you ask me. I loved the first one even though it was a little rough around the edges, but this one is just througly mediocre. Besides the combat which is still fun, the rest is sub par and then some.
Why do you feel that way? I don’t remember the last time I was so addicted to a game. It’s not a perfect game, but it’s clearly nearly perfect for me. I’ll be surprised if I don’t put in at least 100 hours. What do you think it’s letting it down?
Its just so much wasted potential. It could have been spectacular, but its just DD1 with a bigger map and a new coat of paint. Its not bad , its a solid 7,5/10 imo. The world, story, quests and NPC's all feel very last gen. I find myself clicking through almost all dialogue because its just meaningless chatter for the most part
Heard a few people say this but I disagree. It’s got real verticality which makes it feel more realistic than many other open worlds. Once you get to bahtal it does open up further with wide open spaces, but still retains that feeling of verticality. Personally I think it’s very well done as that way they can hide all manor of chests, caves and enemies.
Fair enough about the verticality, it does add another layer to it, but i still find the enviroments a bit dull because of the design choices.
Wouldn't an open world Resi game just be dead rising?
they’d probably think something is wrong with you and you’d end up on some kind of register.
I’ve always wanted my name up in lights!
Nah, you'll be fine. I've got a PS3 that I dig out every few weeks trying to get more trophies.
Should be absolutely fine, I regularly play on PS3, PS4, PS5 and Vita with same account.
Such a pervert
He absolutely went skin suit.
Imagine oggling that behind in VR
Skin suit you say?
I finished DD2 a few days ago. Like Diablo 4 the reviews are way too positive. I can say i probably didnt change vocations enough to get the variety of combat but that was because getting the best gear is expensive and i didn't have a good way to make tons of gold. Its a decent game, but the metacritic average is around 9/10. I wouldnt give more than a 7 at most. Lots of good looking combat animations, but it becomes hollow after the 1st 10 hours. Shite story and shite open world. Its like really shit smaller skyrim but with only selling point being varied combat and pawns. Quests are abysmal and so is story. I played it on PC and its terribly optimized. I would only recommend it on a sale.
Nice try
Absolutely love Nier
Think this is very harsh. But tbf the game isn’t for everyone. It’s a pretty unique style. I have definitely started to feel the grind abit at this point, but that’s only because I’m 80 hours on and just so ridiculously OP that the challenge has all but gone now. I think I’d probably be best finishing the main story soon before I end up putting it down completely.
