I kinda liked the base building aspect…but it was about impossible to really get into it when you got 16 randoms runnin around building stuff at the same time. Just pure chaos, lol.

Admittedly, I havent touched starship troopers since helldivers came out, so I dunno if they changed it or not. I’ve kinda been waiting for something like a 1.0 to try it again.

Based on all of the changes discord has made over the past few years, its absolutely enshittification

IIRC didnt gearbox work with the original devs before on ror2? Not defending them, if anything that makes it even worse that they dropped the ball this hard.

Anthem was dead well before two years. They just straight up stopped updating it after like, 1 content patch.

Bots are bad again, to the point that you can’t even votekick them

I don’t think Embracer had any say on drg’s game development. If they did, well they were obviously more focused on buying too many game companies to care much about development.

Still sold a bajillion copies though.

I think all they’ve really learned is that they can push out whatever game they want, well-made or not, and it’ll sell.

I can’t imagine why someone downvoted this, unless one of the devs is here on lemmy, lmao

Honestly good question. My guess would be mobile game money, and based on their wiki entries mentioning nfts and blockchain, probably something with AI in the works

I’m just sharing my opinion lol

I bought d4 on sale and I’ve gotten 110 hours out of it. Idk why I should be upset about some optional cosmetics that I’m never gonna buy.

Since the game’s selling at $20, one would hope they only put cosmetics in the shop

I’m just being pessimistic, hirez really didn’t handle ascend well at all. Definitely hyped for new tribes content and seeing what’ll come out of this one.

Here’s hoping they don’t do a huge shop overhaul, add a bunch of pay 2 win items, and kill off most of the playerbase
