#

eh?

#

It's the same game is it not? Just in VR

lament hinge
#

not at all

#

completely different games

leaden orchid
#

That's pretty much what was advertised

#

When they advertised VR RE4

lament hinge
#

well its RE4 same story same maps same stuff but

#

gameplay wise they barely have anything to do with each other

#

other than being shooters

leaden orchid
#

I mean even Uncy says that RE7 is actually scary in VR vs non VR

#

and he found regular RE7 boring

stiff patrol
#

We should play beat saber sometime

lament hinge
#

heres from where the big difference comes in RE4 and RE4 VR

#

see

leaden orchid
#

First and third person I can definitely see

#

But pretty much almost always VR is more immersive

lament hinge
#

in the original RE4 movement was strategy
you cant shoot while moving and you cant reload while moving also you move very slow compared to the VR
i the VR trailer i saw the guy zooming trough the village and blasting everything in his path which is now how RE4 is played

#

youd think it makes no difference but it does

#

it completely changes the game

leaden orchid
#

Well I won't have TP

#

I don't like that part of VR

#

Same thing goes with any game that has VR

lament hinge
#

tp?

#

what is tp

#

just look short gameplay clip of RE4 and compare it to the VR trailer

leaden orchid
#

teleprot

#

there's different movement types

lament hinge
#

they looks the same but they play completely differently

leaden orchid
#

analog and teleport

lament hinge
#

ahhhhh yes

leaden orchid
#

teleport is that ass version that's friendlier on the stomach

lament hinge
#

yeah the VR seems like it doesnt have TP

leaden orchid
#

It does

lament hinge
#

it does?

leaden orchid
#

Yes

stiff patrol
lament hinge
#

i saw the guy running thou

leaden orchid
#

There's an animation where you see your avatar run to the TP

#

But it still counts as TP

lament hinge
#

so the run is auto run from point to point?

leaden orchid
#

Yes

lament hinge
#

so whats the point even....

#

i thought he was controlling how and where he goes...

leaden orchid
#

Yeah that's why I'm gonna use analog lol

lament hinge
#

analog?

leaden orchid
#

Which is controlled traditional movement

lament hinge
#

seems u have experience with VR games?

leaden orchid
#

Well I just read up and watched a lot

#

To learn before my set arrives

lament hinge
#

a wise choice

leaden orchid
#

TP is there for a reason though

lament hinge
#

D

leaden orchid
#

Because of motion sickness

lament hinge
#

hmm now when i think about it

leaden orchid
#

Hopefully I won't be a weakling and get sick easily

#

Cus I don't want to use TP

lament hinge
#

seems understandable

#

i want to see the chainsaw decapitation in VR in RE4

#

that would be some fun shit

#

They're not loading peeposad

lament hinge
#

so i was wondering why the item is not droping at all, welp now i know

#

for these drop chances (which are the maximum) its not worth the price its selling for

patent otter

it was be there or be square

#

you're square now

nope

#

#

black desert online?

lament hinge
#

wf is a breez

#

yepp

#

this is what ill craft soon

stiff patrol
#

thats pretty cool

lament hinge
#

and ill have 3 out of 4 of the best horse gear set

#

the fifth one is super cancer

lament hinge
#

u need to be very geared player and have invested in nodes on the map

#

well 0.025% chance i mean

#

wf doesnt have nowhere near these chances

stiff patrol
#

some mods do

#

and i usually buy them for plat as im lazy

lament hinge
#

this is the final look

#

but

#

the stats are important

umbral raven
#

how much did it cost u

lament hinge
#

the whole set at lvl 0 is arround 2 billion silver

#

but

#

nobody is selling any of the parts

lament hinge
#

considering

#

the horse itself is 13-14 billion

#

its not that bad

#

id buy the parts at enchant lvl 0 and ecnhant them msyelf but thing is, nobody is selling them

stiff patrol
#

why is a horse so expensive?

lament hinge
#

speed

#

thats why

#

the map is huge

stiff patrol
#

does it go beyond light speed?

lament hinge
#

and you often have to travel big distances

#

and dream horses have mad speeds

#

they go so fast that the game crashes on hard drives

stiff patrol
#

how long did it take you to get that horse

lament hinge
#

u need ssd or nvme to utilize these horses

stiff patrol
lament hinge
#

XD

#

since the game is constantly streaming assets since its open world with no loading screens

#

and the faster you go the faster storage you need

#

try riding doom on HDD and the game will crash

#

like literally

#

esp if your arround a city

#

i tested it with someone and he crashed

stiff patrol
#

XD

lament hinge
#

just look at it

#

fucking nightmare

#

nobody sells them and each part goes for 1 billion

stiff patrol
#

so much is going on there i had a seizure looking at it

lament hinge
#

eghm u gotta try the game than

#

crafting each part requires you to first have all materials

#

than invest in the speciffic node on th map

#

hire worker and tell him to craft the item

#

many of the items requires a lot of farming

#

ill just buy majority of materials

#

and farm the easy ones

#

itl be far cheaper than buying the part of the market

#

besides nobody sells them any way

stiff patrol
#

ill play it at some point but first i need to get someone to play it with

covert heron
#

@lament hinge does it ask full access to your kernel ? these are the best xD

lament hinge
#

ooh yeah

past reef
#

saved the world, twice, drove imperials out of skyrim, and this is how i get repayed

lament hinge
#

theres actually worst cases @covert heron

#

on steam theres mmo that asks you to disable firewall + antivirus than it demands access to your crypto wallet while promisint it wont get the password and wont make any changes to it

#

no idea how this shit passes trough steam qality checks

lament hinge
#

maybe it speaks volumes about steam checks to begin with

covert heron
#

I need to see that

lament hinge
#

while grinding in bdo im listenint to a lot of videos from youtuber dedicated into testing all mmo's out there

#

no idea which one was it but theres such mmo

#

and ye only 3 ppls have played it ever XD

covert heron
covert heron
lament hinge
#

its still far too much 😄

#

kekw

#
#

this guy

#

i watched his playelist of how mmos were made

#

veeeery interesting

#

learned bunch of stuff

covert heron
#

looks pretty in depth about mmo mechanics, at least those we start to understand

lament hinge
#

for example the maker of the game of thrones browser game is one of the ppls who was part of inventing mmo genre

#

we all know how that game went

lament hinge
#

its bad

#

p2w garbage that got spammed on every ad placement

#

you couldnt escape it

covert heron
#

I dodge bullets at breakfast

lament hinge
covert heron
#

but it sure sounds like something that cannot be anything but bad

lament hinge
#

very intersting person you are

covert heron
lament hinge
#

XD

covert heron
#

the 7 sins serie looks very interesting to watch

lament hinge
#

yep

covert heron
#

Imma watch those, I think he and I have similar analysis about MMO design fails

lament hinge
#

im not a fan of mmo's either

#

i know for a fact

#

they arent being made like in the old days

#

nowdays player are being hold by the hands while being spammed with slut outfits and emojis

covert heron
#

Ironically I am a fan of what it could be, I mean, I played WoW for 12 years, I still enjoy SWTOR

lament hinge
#

but

#

i got hooked on bdo years ago

#

now that i spend this much time i cant just abandon it

#

one day sure i will but now i have some goals in it

covert heron
#

Being a player is the best way to understand what's good and what's wrong in this genre

lament hinge
#

ik its p2w and very grindy but i made my way to high level

covert heron
lament hinge
#

thing is

#

bdo have amazing opening hours

#

not to mention best comba best graphics and best animations and skins with 0 loading times no matter where you go on the map

#

but its very grindy

#

and very p2w

#

also humongous learning curve

#

i would not reccomend the game to non mmo players

covert heron
#

When I left WoW it was a pretty hard time. I've been a pretty good player and an achievement hunter for years. I too thought I shouldn't leave something I invested so much into. IRL didn't leave me much choice, as I had too much work. But thinking back, a short while after, it wasn't the main reason. I had been feeling for a long time that the game didn't respect my time as a player

#

and that's what I now hate above all in an MMO

lament hinge
#

yeah

#

timers

#

or

#

go kill 1000 mobs of this kind

#

lke gimme a break

#

XD

covert heron
#

anything too grindy, too low drop chance, time gates

#

or too repeatitive

lament hinge
#

i mean

#

mmos are repetitive in their nature

#

i think

#

but maybe it depends what type of mmo

covert heron
#

They may be now, but it's interesting to think, could it be less repetitive ?

lament hinge
#

theres this garbage mmo what was its name

#

mortal 2?

#

something like that

covert heron
#

what design could avoid this feeling ?

lament hinge
#

yeah check his video about mortal online 2

#

who the fuck would play such game

covert heron
#

for me it would be challenge, challenging things may appear repetitive because you fail a lot, but once you succeed it's rewarding with pride

#

in the end that's what kept me in WoW for half of these years

lament hinge
#

damn straight

#

the challenge these days is to kill infinite ammout of mobs to get better power weapon and move to the next zone

covert heron
#

exactly

#

while WoW has a lot of weak points, they do have very good encounter designers in the team

lament hinge
#

bdo prides itself on being "you can go anywhere" but really you cant
while indeed you can go on any part you cant do jack shit as you lack skills, experience and MOST importnatly gear for any ofthe activities

#

so

#

why promote itself as being open and "sandbox" when it isnt

covert heron
lament hinge
#

you are forced to grind X ammount of mobs or pick X ammount of flowers in the begnning area to have enough experience that will allow you to equip the gear needed to harvest mobs and plants on the next area

#

kinda pointless if you ask me

lament hinge
#

you can indeed make characetr and go straight to end game

#

but you cant do anything

#

just walking arround

#

beating mobs is not possible since they will 1 hit kill you

covert heron
#

that's an interesting concept to begin with

lament hinge
#

picking the plants and farming will be pointless since you lack skills experience and gear to be productive

#

but im not going to lie it is cool to travel in bdo

#

like hats down to the designers

covert heron
#

I think that if you're going to make all areas accessible like that, there should be things you can do at every level

#

not an easy design for sure

lament hinge
#

ok "technically" you can do activities but

#

you wont be productive at them

#

for example lets say hunting with rifles

#

you can equip beginer matchlock and try to hunt animals in the desert

#

you have to be damn pixel frame perfect ad dodging every attack of the animal

#

while doing 0.00001% damage per shot

#

fire 15-20 times and you have to repair you matchlock

#

so

covert heron
#

xD

lament hinge
#

technically you are doing activity but really you arent doing anything

#

u need exp for that life skill to be able to equip better gear

#

this rule doesnt apply with beating mobs like in every mmo

#

non life skill gear doesnt require anything

#

you can equip whatever you want

covert heron
#

looks like an interesting attempt at design. Another step to explore what works and what doesn't

lament hinge
#

but it feels so satysfying when you get to the next lvl thou

#

you feel the difference of income and power

covert heron
#

that is a good point, feeling progression

lament hinge
#

maybe i should sell my hunting gear

#

its not like im hunting anything

#

and from what i red and researched hunting isnt all that profitable from normal grinding

i reaaaaaly love the head armor piece

#

i thought its gon be mediocre but its breath taking

#

the devs sure know what they are doing no doubt

covert heron

no MMO is without fault these days

paper thicket

#

Lmao

covert heron
lament hinge
#

this is why i dont care about pvp in the game

#

your skills doesnt matter

#

all that matter is what gear and class you have

covert heron
lament hinge
#

than again
if classes were balanced
who would spend money for new classes when they come out?
exactly

covert heron
lament hinge
#

new classes are allways overpowered

#

than slowly being degraded

#

same was with my main class when i started the game

#

there ws huge promotion and Dark Knight just released

#

not that i knew it was OP class back than

#

the opness of my class from what i understand was her ability to avoid all contact and damage during pvp battles

#

dark knight have this weird dodge in all directions (asside backwards)

#

she just evaporates and appears in another place

#

this is why she doesnt have grab ability cos it will be dumb dumb

#

multiplle nerfs to her evasion and stamina

#

so she cant spam the faze in and out ability nonstop

#

the latest class is currently very strong

#

but it will be nerfed eventually

#

its how "live" games with classes works

#

after all

covert heron
#

the latest being ?

lament hinge
#

games are business to make moni

#

Sage

#

hes very cool actually

#

but i spend so much time with my DK

#

so many struggles

#

and beatings

#

now im well geared and i can go and bully undergeared players but why

#

kinda boring

covert heron
#

hmm it's not like I had hopes for any interesting PvP in a game actually, so maybe that's not the good way to judge

lament hinge
#

bdo is very pvp oriented game

#

theres guilds and they fight for ontroll over the map

#

but im not taking part

#

since theres p2w elements

#

and the class dissbalance

#

and its big yikers

#

its a war of wallets and class pride if anything tbh

covert heron
#

what is monetized exactly ?

lament hinge
#

but

#

ngl its a cool idea

lament hinge
#

bdo is sandbox game

covert heron
lament hinge
#

so theres tons of systems and things to do

#

and here comes the marketplace

#

for every activity existing in the game

#

there is item in the shop that makes the activy more profitable and less painfull

covert heron
# lament hinge bdo is sandbox game

usually I use this expression to mean "we dev didn't want to bother designing any goal and engaging gameplay so we'll let you guys do that" uncykek

lament hinge
#

well freedom of choice is nice

#

im not gon bend over and say otherwise

#

im not taking part in all systems

#

actively

#

but i did almost all of them

#

including sailing to island which is cool

covert heron
#

you can give freedom and meaning to things

lament hinge
#

no no every system has its meaning

#

you see

#

everything in the game can be crafted

#

and usually it requires various materials that are obrainable from different systems

#

so

#

gatherers gather

#

fishers fish

#

hunters hunt

#

etc etc

#

than they put their loot on the market and thats how you make money

covert heron
#

that's actually an interesting system

#

but as you said

lament hinge
#

or they craft and sell it like that

#

its very deep

lament hinge
#

and it easely becomes MS Excell simulator

#

well yes it is monetized from toes to head

#

but its not like

#

you cant particcipate or be efficient

#

its just that it makes things more convinient

covert heron
lament hinge
#

thou if you are filthy rich
you can buy costumes from the shop and sell them on the marketplace for ingame silver

#

thou theres limit to how much you can buy and sell per week

#

and silver = power in the game

#

but

#

all this monetization means

#

all updates and all expansions are free

#
  • low entry cost
#

and giving how detailed and massive the game is it kinda justified

#

boomers can screetch all day long but i want to see other mmo looking and playing like BDO while costing 5 dollars

#

you see

#

i remember posting screenshots of DOom (the hell horse) over a year ago and how much i wanted it

#

now i have it and i have the best horse gear in the game

#

feels good

lament hinge
#

well during the time i had to gear up myself

#

complete other goals

#

you cant do everything at once

#

its impossible

#

now im well geared

#

and had to save 12 billion silver which is no easy

#

ppls now are buying out all pegasus horses

#

cos they introduced the first tier 10 horse a dark pegasus

#

i cant wait to see tier 10 doom

#

i know that tier 10 Dine will just have ability to run on watter since hes the only one to be able to run in the desert

covert heron
lament hinge
#

but i wonder what will Doom have

#

yeah

#

the horse actually flies

#

well

#

it cant take off lol

#

but it glides from insane hights

#

and can hover mid air

#

compare any of these horses with the stuff you start the game with

#

mindbending

#

i remember being on foot

#

than getting a fucking donkey XD

#

that shit couldnt turn even

#

now im zooming on the roads and killing low level mobs and animals in my path

#

🏇

covert heron
lament hinge
#

im not making up stuff

#

the donkey couldnt turn around

#

i hated it so much lol

#

😄

#

but it was slightly faster than my running speed so

#
  • donkey and horses can store big ammoung ot loot
#

cos oooooh yeah

#

you have weight system

#

and you know what that means

#

whats this? you grinded for a hour here, now youre overweight and you have speed penatly? no problems a cash shop pop up have suggestion for you

#

and even that wont fully help you

#

so much you can increase your weight limit

#

the real deal comes from maids

#

a maid can teleport loot directly to your stash in the nearby city

#

but

#

1 maid can teleport "cetain" ammount of loot

#

so better stack up on maids for both storage and marketplace

#

though i got 11 maids overall so far from events

#

the game has tons of ongoing events and they give free items a lot

#

👏

#

the most outrageious bs in the marketplace is the tent

#

you see

lament hinge
#

when youre fighting your gear starts wearing off

#

and you have to visit a town to repair the gear

#

but

#

if you spend 40 bucks on a fucking tent, you can place the tent literally anywhere (outside watter) which comes with a town like shop and you can refill on potions and repair your gear there

#

even the wales were up in arms about it

covert heron
#

That kind of things is why I prefer monthly subscription

lament hinge
#

yesbut than again you have to buy the expansions too

#

long term its way more expensive

#

but it is what it is

#

mmo's have to monetize one way or another this is why nobody makes mmo's these days

covert heron
#

it's probably some witty maths to make

#

both for the player and the creator

lament hinge
#

yeah

#

btw there is legit desert in the game

#

like real desert, its big and almost empty

#

looks lovely thou

covert heron
#

having played 12 years to wow, it cost me minimum 1440 euros xD

lament hinge
#

i have screenshots

covert heron
#

though I had big breaks

lament hinge
#

bruh

covert heron
#

so make more around 1000

#

let's take that as basis, let's say if you expect to invest yourself in an MMO for 10 years you have a budget of 1000

lament hinge
#

i forgot his name but one of the battlefront 2 designers was giving interview for IGN

#

and he said that "yeah spending 1000 dollars monthly on a game is okay"

#

even the damn reporter from IGN turner with googly eyes in shock

#

and he was talking about it as if it was something normal everyone does

covert heron
#

if a monetization scheme goes way over 1000 in less than 10 years, let's consider it's a ripp off

lament hinge
#

no game should cost that much

#

and here comes start citizen

#

buy a virtual space ship for real life 25 000 dollars US

covert heron
#

1000 euros in 10 years mean 100 euros yearly, which is ok compared to many IRL activities

lament hinge
#

oh i forgot to mention, star citizen isnt even a finished game or a game at all

lament hinge
#

do u know it

covert heron
#

everyone is laughing now

lament hinge
#

i was interested in it

#

but it looks

#

they are not making space game but a rip off and filthy scam

covert heron
#

before I could even be interested in it the shitshow had already started

#

now it's a regular source of lulz

lament hinge
#

yeah

#

best part is

#

the expensive ship are locked behind initial 1000 dollars purchase

#

you cant even see these ships on the market if you havent spend 1K dollars

covert heron
lament hinge
#

i mean cmon 😄 even EA doesnt do shit like this

#

also

#

you know how big games hold their own conventions?

#

well guess what

#

star citizen con was paid for digital

covert heron
lament hinge
#

well they did

#

you have to buy ticket to watch it on twitch

covert heron
lament hinge
#

i mean

#

cmon 😄

covert heron
#

"here's our convention for our non existing game !"

lament hinge
covert heron
#

priceless

lament hinge
#

i was legit hyped for the game

#

but no i know

#

squadron 42 will never ever release

#

since they arent even working on it

#

though the prerendered trailer looked dope

#

but thats it

#

you think they will hire all these actors for a full game? LOLZ

#

not even EA have budget for that

covert heron
#

I hurt my back, my foot and my legs 3 weeks ago, now i'm starting to get better, I'll play SWTOR again, but BDO did tickle my curiosity. I have too much work to handle 2 MMOs but I'll keep it in my head

lament hinge
#

bdo is unique mmo

#

but theres lots of p2w elements in it

#

cant lie about that

#

the initial hours of the game are so good

#

you visit places and they all look insane

covert heron
#

if anything, since its monetization is shop based, it's not like it costs much to enter

lament hinge
#

you lvl up, gear up get horse and stuff

#

it feels very good

#

they are giving the game for free sometimes

#

like

#

7 days for free

covert heron
#

I'll keep an eye on it
