This is the future of RPGs, get on the with the times boomers and buy Outer Worlds

Coupling your stats together like that is a really nice way of doing it for games where you have three stats and you're not really doing anything interesting with them. I like it.

I think I've completely fallen for Yea Forums's reverseshilling of nuObsidian and Outer Worlds because these days I can't imagine it being any good.

Fucking hell I'm a retard.
No wonder companies astroturf this site to death.

Too bad the smoothbrain normies outnumber everyone that might want something deeper than an tinderthots profile from the gameplay.

Yeah I know what you mean, that shit does work.

It's all about repetition.

Getting flooded with the same old shit everyday wears down the mind, it's why there are daily EGS/Epic posts as well.

Its funny cause when he is talking about player psychology he talks about how they get more excited seeing bigger numbers.

if you keep repeating the lie again and again, it becomes the truth

but epic store is still soulless chinkshit

reminder that these two triangles make up Star of David when combined

>you just copy your build from some popular streamer
I haven't played in a while but most streamers' builds were usually shittier versions of good builds from the forums they just slapped their name on or original builds that were underoptimised

The point of my post (and joke), is that's what zoom zooms do.

>actually knowing what the streamers do
Embarrassing.

Meanwhile poe is a tencent eternal cash cow.
>implying western babbies will have ANYTHING to say about how games will be made
Enjoy your impending irrelevance.

OHNOONONNONOON gweilobros we got too cocky!

Time to buy a phone to stay relevant.

No the forum builds are the worst possible builds. They're either by attention whores who were too dumb to get obs working or actual scam artists trying to sell you their worthless gear.

I can't be the only person that will stop playing games from "the video game industry" as soon as they start their streaming/online only shit, nor will i care for the indie garbage games.

i can see myself only playing homebrews and abandonware, older games til i die, because i cannot care for "the industry" and what it is producing, nor the arthouse faggotry

>not browsing all of the builds while bored
found a few wonky passive setups that resulted in single digit gains several times during different patches
they were all from forum builders though

yes that was the case for the popular builds which had all those gay ass thread graphics and literal advertising
high iq build threads were usually gear links, passive link and one paragraph explanation which is why the good builds never got popular

It is simple when viewed as a collection of mechanics, but convoluted as fuck just like the rest of the game. In almost all cases 1 node on a tree means less than 1 point in SPECIAL stats, but it still requires you to either go and most likely fail with your first character to get a gist of how different mechanics work and interact in the game or do some relatively extensive research beforehand assuming you wanna start with your own character. The game can at least give some example builds or SOME kind of an interactive tip to what kind of stats a player should strive for if he wants to survive instead of most new players dumping shit in full attack nodes and then getting oneshot once their resistances fall down (something that isn't telegraphed either btw)

youre missing out on Hollow Knight bruh, its so well made, it could be mistaken for AAA title

perfect for American audiences

if i can get Hollowknight on a cartdrige i'd maybe play it

He was clearly talking about Path of Exile, retard

its released on switch

Literal quote from video:

Fuck off, OP

If your shitty flamewar-sparking image isn't exciting enough, the answer isn't to fucking lie about what the guy's saying.
It's to think of something actually interesting to tell us or start a discussion on.

Wrong game

What a hack.

This is the most important thing to understand right here.

>so what did we gain
BUT WHAT DID IT COST

I only looked at thumbnail faggots.
Who gives a shit anyway, current year Obsidian is trash

why a triangle, that's too complicated
just use a binary yes or no system
the modern gamer doesnt have time for triangles
triangles confuse the modern gamer
left, right, down, up??? i dont know where i am anymore

Are we expecting stores to have soul now ?

Do you think indies only make arthouse games?
That's a pretty stupid thing to think

well goodluck being Microsofts cocksleeve for eternity obisidicucks
we'll be over here making RPG's

hi Tim, hows PoE2 sales figures

What went wrong with Obsidian?

RPGs are already brainlet enough as it is there's nothing complicated about any in the last 10 years.

>reading "PoE" and tinkling on obsidian shit first
Do they literally live RENT FREE in your head?

Tim Cain ? more like Tim Cain you not?

Obsidian worked on Fallout and PoE you fucking retard.

I think the problem with PoE's system wasn't the stats but the heavy-handed attempt to perfectly balance the classes. In a single player oriented game, does it really matter if one class is OP compared to another? And they didn't even really succeed in balancing the classes in the end.

>Obfuscate numbers from players even further
I fucking hate that because I invariably end up having to sate my OCD by looking through wikis in such cases so I know the internal maths of exactly how things like damage and defence work and scale.

delete this

correction, it's good in comparison

And?

Also you're the only retard who thought it was Pillars. Get the hint.

Is Original Sin 1 worth playing or should i just start with 2?

>we
fuck off with that language, Yea Forums isn't one person. but to answer your question, epic store is explicitely anti consumer and managed to show that despite other problems other stores had soul in the fact that they're trying to sell games. epic is playing rough, pissing people off, and managed to set a new standard on what not to do.

It's probably on the cheap, so worth

>What went wrong with Obsidian?

Same as Bioware, all the talented people left.

It's very much worth it but a lot harder in certain aspects and does absolutely nothing to guide the player who skips dialogue and doesn't remember what quest they were working on. Not streamlined at all. But if you enjoy being dumped into a world and left to try and figure things out entirely on your own, it's absolutely sublime.

PoE would be perfect if the game had defaults build paths as an starting point.
Once you realize how everything is laid out its fun to mess around with, but its overwhelming at minute one when you have no idea of anything about the game

A man and his son were once going with their donkey to market. As they were walking along by his side a countryman passed them and said, "You fools, what is a donkey for but to ride upon?" So the man put the boy on the donkey, and they went on their way.
But soon they passed a group of men, one of whom said, "See that lazy youngster, he lets his father walk while he rides."

So the man ordered his boy to get off, and got on himself. But they hadn't gone far when they passed two women, one of whom said to the other, "Shame on that lazy lout to let his poor little son trudge along."

Well, the man didn't know what to do, but at last he took his boy up before him on the donkey. By this time they had come to the town, and the passersby began to jeer and point at them. The man stopped and asked what they were scoffing at.

The men said, "Aren't you ashamed of yourself for overloading that poor donkey of yours -- you and your hulking son?"

The man and boy got off and tried to think what to do. They thought and they thought, until at last they cut down a pole, tied the donkey's feet to it, and raised the pole and the donkey to their shoulders. They went along amid the laughter of all who met them until they came to a bridge, when the donkey, getting one of his feet loose, kicked out and caused the boy to drop his end of the pole. In the struggle the donkey fell over the bridge, and his forefeet being tied together, he was drowned.

The moral of the story is that if you try to please everyone, you can kiss your ass goodbye.

>no numbers
>no point buy
Just because it's obscured doesn't mean it's not there.

No numbers for the small brain normies who get a headache doing basic arithmetic. It's like the light in the fridge. They don't need to know how it works, all they need to know is "open door > light turns on".

Hire me, time cane.

>get on the with the times boomers
The OP image IS the boomer path. Old fat retards who don't care about the details and only want to know if something is good or "yucky", yet at the same time will willingly, mindlessly grind for hours upon hours with an unnecessarily slow experience.

Real zooms want all the god damn information they can get so that they waste as little time as possible.

More specifically, the game designers left, the marketing and monetization teams got raises.

this is the future of rpgs we chose after having TW3 be the goty

Make it 3d to have a 4th stat

Go play Fallout or PoE.
