* PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X launch this holiday season
WTMG's Thomas Medina: "As far as I’m concerned, console MMOs have always been in a weird place. PC is where the main game is most popular. MMOs were born there, work best there, and have the vast majority of titles. Mobile is then next in line, with touchscreens and portability that adds something new while functioning well. Console gaming, on the other hand, is not portable (for the most part). Plus, it uses a controller, which is not the best instrument when your control scheme requires a thousand buttons and a cursor. That being said, there is an audience, and where there’s money to be made, publishers find a way. So here we are with some of the biggest console MMO games and how I feel they handled 2021. "
From Xfire: "A lot of video games are designed to make players feel like a superhero. However, very few actually feature superheroes or have players take on the role of a superhero. What makes this even worse is that there are even fewer superhero video games that can be considered good."
What are some of your opinions of this game? It looks like a lot of fun. Some things I would like to know though are if there is enough stuff to do in the game to justify the subscription, also are there a lot of people still playing it etc..
Massive grind end game, getting to end game was fun, it sent you on missions that felt like mini comics, but once you get to the end game it's the same thing day in and day out very similar to world of warcraft.
I'm tired of grinding the same content over and over, I was so pleased how DCUo leveled you it felt so fresh with the combat & story, but at the end it left me wanting more of what I had while leveling.
they did. a new mission or two, a new duo for the daily grinding, a holiday themed diversion. But still, the end result was doing the same routine every day to get marks to get armor to get stronger to get more marks - very little incentive outside of getting bigger. No story, no real reason to hang around. And PVP often took forever to fill up, so I had many an evening just sitting around in the park talking to people.
when you're playing, the game really is a ton of fun. And going through raids is a blast. It's just - that's all there is to it - continuously reworking the same missions with friends. I just eventually grew tired of it, but not because the game's bad - I just lost interest.
