Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
I don't really care too much about Day 1 DLC or even on-disc DLC. If they help make a game I like profitable, then by all means go ahead and charge for them since many great games aren't profitable from the sale of the game itself. The thing that pisses me off to no end is the fact that some developers find it necessary to… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
Early access is horrible. it's kinda nice to see and play the alphas of games but you're paying almost full price for a game that's possibly not going to be released for 2-3 years or probably never. Example being Overgrowth. Though there's more trustworthy developers and games like Starbound (which at least is actually a… -

NegevPro: I think Sir is maybe the best example of early-access actually working as it should. I think the problem is that you're essentially being paid up front before the work is done, under the pretense of community involvement. There's all sorts of things that could go wrong in that scenario, and it seems a little… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
The biggest thing i want gone, is being required to log into an account when I want to play a game. i get you want me to activate it or whatever, but that should be the end of it. I hate having to log in to starcraft 2 for example and it not letting me play a quick game because i have no internet for over a month because… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
I dont think people dislike cutscenes in general. Look at skyrim start for a bad example. Sitting only with the hands shackled in a carriage. Hell why i cant stand up and run? Because Storywise you must undergo Character creation and a dragon attack. Solution: So what! Let the player stand up, run and he becomes a arrow in… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
I agree with most of you about the early acces thing. Oftentimes I see a promising game released on steam only to go to the page and being disappointed when it is "only" and early access. But I don't dislike the idea in general. Kerbal Space Program is a very good example. back in early 2012 you could get the game for… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
Bridget, That's exactly the problem, many times, it's not almost full price, but in fact double the money that it's suppose to cost later on (again, planetary anhilation being perfect example). So in case of that particular game, you payed for like alpha version of game 90$. Because game is in so early stage, you have no… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
Maybe I'm just in the minority but I'm not sure why Early Access titles always get hate. It's not like you have to pay for the game a second time when it comes out so what is the big deal? You pay money to basically join the alpha/beta program of a game, from here, you can directly influence the direction a game takes in… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
I like DLC and am more than happy to pay for it when its done right. Been some worrying examples of how not to do it in recent months, would like to see that change. Most of all I would like to see some sections of the community grow up and mature a LOT. -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
My problem with F2P games are the Pay to Play games. Dota2, TF2 and LoL are examples of F2P done outstandingly well. The number one reason those games can be free and still reap a huge profit is because they are FUN so the player WANTS to spend money on it, AND it doesn't affect the game. Its a win-win all around. The…
