Every year a new Call of Duty comes out and every year fans’ expectations are not met. What ends up being released each year is a very similar game with an almost identical experience. Should a new Call of Duty be released every year?
Lately, a number of notorious difficult ARPGs have added difficulty options. Is that a good thing or does it ruin the experience?
As long as it is just an option, it is totally okay, but it's also OKAAAAY! To simply ignore that option.
Long as fromsoft never does it. This was only expected since the soulslike genre is so popular now.
Stuff like this really shows that people completely missed the point of that argument. The argument was never that souls likes shouldn't have a difficulty option. The argument was that if someone makes a game, particularly souls likes, that did not want to include difficulty options, that you should just respect that instead of demanding and berating the developers to add them.
I see the lack of difficulty settings as one of the key traits that defines a Soulslike. It’s not just about being challenging. It’s about how the game is built around that challenge, expecting you to learn through failure and grow by mastering its systems. Once you introduce difficulty options, you’re changing that foundation. You’re giving players a way around the intended experience, actually you are killing the whole idea of a "intended experience".
That doesn’t make the game worse, necessarily, but at that point, it’s just not a Soulslike anymore. It's a action RPG.
Star admits he may have "misled" fans
Damn, I was hoping for an updated patch. Well let’s see if the rumors are still true, that it’s coming to Switch 2. There’s still hope……I hope
Everyone just hold up a minute! 🤔 This could still be possible. Perhaps this cast member was told to hush and draw attention away from a big reveal
The new trailer has dropped and looks interesting.
Have to say....the more I see of this game the less impressed i am unfortunately. The reveal trailer had me so interested, but the last 2 looks at the game have been underwhelming.
Looking really good.
For some reason this game is giving me serious Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain vibes.
Definitely interested.
No, but I said that 5 years ago and nobody listened. Meanwhile I have accepted that it's just like EA's annual sports games and it's best to only buy the game every other year to not get burned out by it.
hell no
The better question is: should millions of gamers buy CoD games each and every year? Activision is just doing what any normal person would do let alone a multi-billion $ company.
Yes, just like other sports game.
We have new maps, new DLC maps, some random novelty, new gun balance. I like it.
It's more than most sports games.
I am more OK with it now they have a 3 year development cycle.
