Thank you, Aztecross! You told us what you thought was the reasons for the recent downfall of franchises without telling us! I respect it!
starfield was a 5 until i beat the game and lost everything i farmed for, then it became a 3
This just confirms it to me that game designers are more technical developers than creative artists. I know any artist is used to being critiqued for their work in art school. Then having to deal with that feedback.
People shouting generally care.
The ones that aren't screaming have already quit or given up.
There will be a D3. No more ‘ifs’
The only reason is because so.e guys found out how to reinstall everything and make it better. All they see is money missed. Without the people rebuilding all the things they left out. Nothing ever would of happen, thier not listening! Thier just seeing dollars
I really just want them to finish the story, that can take five years that can take 10 years. I will play it until the end the story, wrapping paper and ribbon and then I’ll be good
We just wanna play fun games. Start making fun games again, and don't remind me of political or social ideologies when I'm trying to escape reality.
We're really comparing the people complaining about Gears to the Marathon situation… Have you seen the new gears… I think Gears will be okay.
Lol Remember Outriders? 😂
Starfield was a 6/10 on it's own. Your 4/10 is comparing it to the other games.
i still remember when Prometheus Lens Broke crucible. Best laugh i had in years and honestly? that kind of "Laser Tag" should've been a mode.
2:40 nah most devs never played their goddamn games.
You can tell Cross is just dunking on Starfield as ragebait, he keeps insisting it's worse than it really is.
Yeah sure, they "clawed their way out" how exactly? promising to return everything once they realized modders with AI tools could wipe away all their tech debt they have been selling as a service? They realized they have to or else they have nothing. They would not be doing this without being FORCED to. They would be happy giving you another open and empty map and then explaining how its going to take years to make sure Telesto still works correctly and then overcharging for their "service". I will never buy another Bungie product or any product their developers go on to produce. I am legit following careers just to avoid this trash service model with garbage consumer practices.
Genuinely I want one day where all exotic armor and weapons get granted the life exotic. Just one day where the sandbox is completely shattered. Just crank the silly knob till it snaps off the dial. Just. One. Day.
Destiny have ignored the main issues for years, The crappy connection system, Cheaters, Ximmers. They have started to address the loot problem that made RNG a problem but then crafting weapons made adept weapons useless. Meaningful content was a problem at times but at times they got that right but not always. Story in most places could be epic but falls flat at times.
Anyone who defends starfield as a decent game either didn’t play it or has literally only played starfield and nothing else.
Gears of war e day is fucking excellent, I did not care that mags and Rayes got into the limelight cos it made it feel like they were team mates and not just added in npcs. Remember this is a 4 player co op so the other chars have to be interesting for people to play. I liked Mags and Rayes by the end of the game. The world/level design was epic, gameplay epic and it performed decent on my PC.
this video taught me that cross still hates marathon.
Starfield is a stain on Bethesda… I have thousands of hours in skyrim, over a thousand of hours in FNV, around six hundred hours in Oblivion and fallout 3, and even about 200 hours in Morrowind (yes, I had no life in my teens and twenties), I have 86 hours in Starfield and I didn't even finish the main questline. I have never been more disappointed in a game I thought was going to be good.
I'll give them this one bone, the pirate questline was fun, but all of the others? They had something that pissed me off so much I dropped half of them and when I decided I'd just try and play it as an exploration game I lasted five to ten hours before running the same 8 dungeons got so boring I just uninstalled the game, and haven't felt the need to install it since.
Most people can relate with devs more than they realize. Here's what I mean, alot of devs are doing what theyre told, they aren't deciding how things are made or what direction they go in. They have bosses, and they are working a job. All of us have bosses at our jobs, and everyone knows the feeling of being told to do something that you personally disagree with. But, you dont have a choice, its your job and thats your boss. Alot of devs (not all) are in that same position. Everyone thinks devs are the top bosses, they clearly are NOT. Look at how things went when pete was there. I KNOW there were destiny devs who LOVE the game and did NOT like the eay lete was handling it, but he is literally the top brass and they dont have a choice when he says no. Either they do it, ir get fired. Imagine being one of those devs, you hear the community, you agree with the general consensus about these issues, and YOU want to fix it, you want to be receptive to the players, but your boss doesnt allow it. Now imagine you getting flamed by thousands online, when you're not even at fault for it. Those players dont even understand the position you're in, and yet they flame you, call you lazy, stupid, etc. There needs to be grace and maturity within our critics, thats what im saying.
i'm just waiting on them to deliver. a world where we actually saved D2 and possibly create a D3 is unfathomable to me. we'll see.
My late father would say: "Everyone will have their time to teach, consciously or not, what they do best, and you just have to minimally listen to learn a lot from them". Laura is a blessing and an eye-opener. She got the experiencie and the tact on how to take on EVERYTHING that's wrong in this generation. I hope that she becomes the counterpart of the so called "Consultants" like Sweet Baby Inc., Hit Detection LLC, etc. as the games that have taken a toll on all these late studios wouldn't have had their fates sealed at this point, and Bungie was about to be one of them.
the amount of people that CANNOT deal with criticism, no matter what type it is, is INSANE. People can say the same old FORCED HATE or even FORCED GLAZE copy paste crap, but much of it isn't FORCED, it is real and for a reason. Just because YOU don't agree, doesn't mean a HUGE amount of possible BUYERS will keep their wallets closed. Social media praise and reviews mean NOTHING if the games don't sell, the DOLLAR is all that matters in the end. If studios keep choosing to IGNORE this criticism in their own echo chambers, they will keep underperforming in sales and player bases and fail, resulting in MORE studios to close. I am happy Bungie has finally listened to the fanbase and announcing some good news, now this doesn't mean I fully believe it all, time will tell. I can be hopeful they deliver, we will see.
