Honestly. For one the US is huge. Its like saying “living in Europe” as a shared common experience, two because of our news stations sensationalist stories are blasted 24/7 and on repeat.
The day to day life isn’t THAT crazy. No one I know personally had any personal experience with gun violence at school. 0. Out of about 100 people.
Its still tragic that any kid has experienced violence in school. 1 is too many. Its just not the daily lived experience of most Americans.
Capitalist want more capital.
They need NEW IP so that they can be made unburdened by the past experiences of a game industry that respected players even a little.
I mean come on a blood Bourne live service gatcha game would be ridiculed, so need a new IP with its own hype for a live service gatcha game.
I played it at a lan party when it first came out. We all had a blast and after a day of playing we had wildly different stories and experiences.
Its an awesome game, and with mods you could get another games worth of fun out of it IMHO, but I don’t think its the end game of games like they treat it. It can be better (mods show just some of that potential), and they’re are other games.
Right 76 is structurally boring. Just like star field, and kind of lik3 fallout 4.
They are bad in the writing department and gameplay is super lack luster. Previous games got away with bad gameplay because the story was good, but they are diamonds in the rough because of it. These ones are partially polish concrete.
Very different games to me tbh. Squad pve with gun focused combat, but thats where the similarities end. Borderland is crunchy with tons of guns stats and special movesin a RPG open world with a set narrative to go through.
Helldivers has a way smaller arsenal and a tighter mission based combat loop. They have more of a meta narrative that you affect vs being the main protags. The tighter gameplay loop is probably the biggest reason I liked it but haven’t play borderlands in forever. Like its very much built for dropping in blowing up your friend and maybe some enemies too, try to do objectives against mounting odds, pass or fail the mission, continue. The fact that weapon progress almost always makes friendly fire a even bigger threat makes it almost a trade off and not a clear path to success.
Makes sense, I bet there is better product fit for this in future but its cool to see first adoptions.
Sterilizing that would be a bitch, was designed for level ofreliablety I would be comfortable with for surgery, and as with all medical equipment it should be bought with right to repair in mind (not the current practice and its an active problem).
Not just sense, if they released just botched games and left it at that, it would make buying from them again (or anything the members of the team worked on) way more difficult. I mean heck look at Bethesda despite decades of bangers a bad couple of games and people just don’t care like they used to.
Of course! It’s what got me started!
I love it as a concept, and frankly a dual boot installer (create partitions) that worked from Windows would be pretty useful I think. USB/disk installs add complexity that just hurt the chances.
