Why does everything have to be rng now? At least da:I multiplayer let you "craft" new classes so you could play what you wanted.
I haven't been able to unlock any of the mp characters I'm after yet, because rng is terrible

I'm giving serious thought to selling my consoles and stopping gaming bc the industry as a whole is over-monetized. Gone are whole games for 50-60$.. now you buy incomplete shells for 60-100$ then dump more cash into them for DLC/updates before you get a finished product. Most games are released 6 months to 2 years before they're ready.. and I'm sick of paying for it. I'd rather focus on family, career and outdoor living. Gaming just doesn't have the soul it used to. When was the last time we got a truly amazing game.. like the original Metroid.. Final Fantasy 7.. Mass Effect 2.. Warcraft/StarCraft.. Halo 2.. Skyrim/Oblivion, etc. Probably the Witcher 3.. and I read great things about the most recent Final Fantasy. That's all I can think of. Gaming isn't what it used to be.

Casino crate systems on their own aren't too bad. As long as you can unlock everything by playing on top of paying, I'm fine with it.

You'll thank me later. I find that game very enjoyable as an Asian, but I honestly don`t think most Western video game players will be able to relate to that game. It`s too repetitive and static for players who are used to quick action and large explosions.

After 40 hours spent in multiplayer I should have the option to unlock the kineticist. Yet I get taunted daily by people with 350ap who got a lucky drop.
Such a wonderfully thought out and developed system.

You could "craft" characters in DAIMP? Yea. To unlock new classes, you just had to collect the right materials via gameplay and then craft that class' armor set. You could unlock the classes You wanted instead of it being entirely random

So, a couple of things.
(1) The DAIMP character ('armor') crafting system was HORRIBLE. Do not ever, ever wish for this to be inflicted upon any other game. It was like 3 different layers of RNG on top of each other with the added 'fun' of inventory management and busywork.
(2) The solution to being disappointed by new games is DON'T BUY NEW! Wait until the game is packaged up into a game of the year edition with all the relevant DLCs included, then wait for that to go on sale / be used. You will save a ton of money and avoid paying for the privilege of being a beta tester. The downside is you are 1-2 years behind the times.

Why does everything have to be rng now? At least da:I multiplayer let you "craft" new classes so you could play what you wanted. I haven't been able to unlock any of the mp characters I'm after yet, because rng is terrible RESERVE PACKS...
I actually love the casino crate system myself. I am a DFS (daily fantasy sports) player as well as a gamer.

My nephew keeps pushing me to play it so that we can talk about it, he's completely into it. Everyone says it's a really good game.

The game offers many elements recent games have long forgotten.

It tends to explain them anyway. I disagree that the game is in any way niche. The gameplay is stylish and interesting, and bioware fans especially will appreciate the social system and character depth. The core message is universal and powerful. I've not had any form of art, let alone a game, make me rethink my position on things to this degree since ... maybe ever.

Yeah Skyrim is for PS4 but I think it will be for pc as well and they're making fallout 4 in VR as well but unfortunately we won't be getting that one on the PS4 Only the pc players will get it. And I played Resident Evil 7 in VR too, I loved it! I laughed the whole way through, it was so amazing, creepy and hilarious at the same time lol. I've played most of Farpoint too and that one is really good but Incredibly difficult for me. There is no difficulty level to choose from in the beginning, only a preset one and the game is very hard to get through which is a shame cause it's really fun and well made.

I can still play it as I have the big 3 (Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, PSVR)... I won a bunch of money last summer in a DFS tourney and bought them all. I would buy Farpoint for my nieces, but the damn thing is sold out everywhere.
