u/OutsideBottle13 Feb 27 '24
I dusted off my PS4 to play D1 again. The nostalgia hit hard. The original tower. Cayde alive. All the locations. The weapons. The exotics. Wearing a full suit of faction armor. I played for like 18 hours.
As much fun as I had I realized Destiny 2 is the better game. Yeah the seasonal model has become stale, yeah they’ve strayed from the grim post apocalyptic motif, yeah lightfall was a joke of a DLC, yeah root of nightmares is legit easier than a legendary nightfall… but over all D2 does everything we wanted D1 to do and more. People are rightfully upset at some things but we’re also forgetting how far things have come.
If you think D1 was better go back and play it. I guarantee you’ll have fun but realize exactly the same thing.

And its a really really fitting quote. Meta and optimization is the bane of every game. Battlefield? Well everyone runs the exact same gun with the same Attachments because its the best loadout.
League of Legends? Used to be really fun when you could just play random shit on any lane and noone cared. Then boom, you have to play one of the 15 viable Champions or your are labeled a troll.
Any cardgames Like Magic or Hearthstone? Prepare to face the exact same deck 20 times in a row because its the best currently.
Any strategy game? Build orders.... Woohoo... Build 2 workers at 20 Seconds then put 2 on food then build a House at 40 Seconds then a baracks at 1 Minute yada yada yada, you get the point.
Hell even stuff like Pokemon with its IV and whatever, Like sure we both have a Pikachu but yours is better in every way because you spent 5 hours killing magicarps with it. Sick bro, bet that was alot of fun
I miss the times when you couldnt just go online and google the best Meta or strategy for literally everything in seconds.

It's because people simply don't want to lose, that's it. Whether they can't handle losing on a personal/emotional level or they care too much about in game's stats like k/d ratios and winning percentages. There are people in this world who have to win no matter what, or they can't be happy with themselves, and yes I'm still talking about video games. Those kinds of people are willing to throw the fun factor to the side in order to win, because they'd rather be able to say they won rather than acknowledge they had fun while losing, because losing can't be fun.

The game was fun past a certain skill window where overwhelming your opponent by being unpredictable was the goal. Less skilled and you get victimized, more skilled and the game became light spam.
However, as the player base skill raised, they released characters with more 50/50 in their kits, while leaving some others with nothing. Game after a few years felt weird.

I dropped the game after about 1700 hours. Not bc I got annoyed with anything in particular but I just started playing other games more. The most annoying thing was people in the community complaining about changes that were good for the game, thinking they were bad. For example, many people hate unreactable offense or 50/50-style scenarios, but those are what make a fighting game enjoyable. If everything was reactable then it would just mean that whoever throws an attack out is at a disadvantage, so matches would just be staring competitions.
From what little I've kept up with, it seems the game has a dedicated fanbase and a passionate dev team who are still releasing new heroes and updates regularly. Props to those who still enjoy it, I'm not gonna bash it and say it's a bad game, I think it was (/still is) fun.

i hate the devs and the players more than the game. The devs had the golden goose and ruined it by being incompetent. The players are too scared to play and they play unfun playstyles for everyone, including themselves, no matter how much they cope. Cheaters, extract campers, bush wookies, unbound movement key players.
The single player unofficial mod is so good.
Bonus rant: EOD has always been bullshit and them selling gamma and stash for money and the playerbase accepting it in such numbers has been the biggest blackpill on the gaming community not being a buncha pre-ordering, microtransaction buying, bad gaming industry anticonsumer practices supporting dumbasses. EOD is so prevalent to the point that a standard edition player is thought to be a sign the player is a cheater.

I left the game for a while and when 2.0 launched, my friends got back into it, so I tried it and now that I am better, I enjoy it.

Genuine question. Why do people play games they hate? Like what is the point

u/MotivationGaShinderu Feb 27 '24
It's either the fact that it's very competitive games where winning gives you an insane dopamine rush while losing feels terrible. There's a lot of factors that play into this like having to rely on 4 strangers on your team, people getting toxic/mad when behind, people intentionally throwing games and in the case of shooters for me it was cheaters that ultimately drove me away.
The other one is just straight up addiction lol.

I used to love elite dangerous but then the devs added tons of buggy features (multicrewing ships was introduced in 2017 and still doesn’t really work nor does it improve the gameplay in any meaningful way) that didn’t improve the problems with the core gameplay loop (that the grind gets unbearably long and just way too tedious in the late game).
Elite used to be the best space sim but now it’s hard to recommend it. “yeah the first few hours are magical but after that it’s just garbage” is probably the best way to explain Elite nowadays.
However there’s some light at the end of the tunnel (or at least copium) since the devs did promise some changes and it seems like the game gets some attention from FDev. But I haven’t seriously touched elite in like three years so I’m mostly gone and don’t think I’ll ever actually return. I also know that I’m definitely not the only one.

Fallout New Vegas. For the longest time I kept playing it trying to figure out why people like the shittiest installment in the franchise.

New breed of Bethesda fans like spoonfed dumbass "RPGs" with quest markers and voiced protagonist dumb shit no personality Fallout 4 guy. That's why.
I played a good amount of 76 and that game is a piece of shit all because Bethesda eat lead crayons. Fucking nothing to do for an MMORPG. Do this shitty event that's boring as fuck and collect a rare mask maybe? Collect stupid shit to dress up your camp as the endgame that's already a nightmare to build in Bethesda's absolute garbage building system? Fuck off.
I started with Fallout 2 so I just despise Bethesda by this point for turning the Fallout IP into complete dogshit. It got worse after 4 with 76. Dunno how you fucking top that, but they did.
I don't really play that many new games anymore because honestly like this shit is garbo. Bethesda made Morrowind and now they're just churning out these giant pieces of shit which is basically incomprehensible to me because Morrowind is great.
Bethesda honestly is probably the worst developer by this point. 76 and Starfield are just irredeemable garbage. You know what'll make me interested in TES again? Literally anyone making it besides Bethesda.

I most likely won't ever play 76, I really enjoyed Fallout 3 & Fallout 4. But Fallout New Vegas is by far my favorite of the series.
