The Book of Grudges: Because Fatshark Won't Listen

I’m part if that crowd which you’re so childishly dismissing.

Played the new short map and haven’t touched the game since. It’s in a terrible state. And I won’t buy the DLC no matter if they make the best trailer of all time.

-Says class is boring
-Hasn’t played the class

Okay.

I haven’t tried gouging myself with a red hot iron poker either.

I genuinely don’t get this. Like why do you people think hivescum is bad to the point you wont even try it? Like I can get not wanting to buy DLC thats understandable but you can just say that instead of saying the class is bad, when its not.

To steel man a bit, I think they (may) mean that the class “seems” or is apparently boring. Lore wise, aesthetically, mechanically, whatever. Which, entertainment value is highly subjective anyways.

That said, I don’t see how they would be any more boring or less entertaining than zealot or veteran really. Abhumans I could understand some interest but the scum have interesting mechanics with the cartel special, needle pistol, etc. I like the class. I played dagger zealot a lot and now I just do shiv scum for that itch and do heavy eviscerator on zealot instead. Freshen things up and play differently.

But yeah I think some people could change their mind if they played it to level 30 and got by the resistance of just a run of the mill criminal human.

Same goes for the people who played Hive Scum to level 20 and thought it was trash when in reality it’s up there with Psyker for most overtuned and overpowered class

oh, yah, bursters are busted inconsistent. Their explosion radius is like 300% larger if they det without being pushed. Even if they are pushed, there’s like a 50% chance you won’t get hit if you don’t dodge away at the same time.

Gotta add, as an aside, pretty much every time a headshot doesn’t register is with a revolver or one of its variants (including dual pistols), and it’s a rather high chance it won’t count the hit

I personally quite dislike the aesthetic and the general idea of the hive scum due to the opportunity cost at the expense of having pretty much any other 40k archetype. And also having more refined weapon mechanics locked behind both an uninteresting aesthetic and paywall.

I’ve been of the opinion all enemies have a detached hurt box that will chase you like a Jojo Stand for a hot minute.

The entire aesthetic is unappealing to me. Gameplay aside.

I’m sure having unlimited ammo and literally unable to take damage is a fun gameplay loop for Darktide though.

Germany is also the reason that many trailers (and even entire games!) don’t show blood with their violence. I know it’s a tiny bit more relaxed now but in years past it has caused huge issues where companies just had to remove it altogether.

sadly mostly this.

but tits,ass,sex,drugs or stuff that doesn’t specifically show 2 genitals getting shoved into each other?

nah, commercials at kid time programming been full of it.

maybe with the exception of tobacco, booze is still fine though. heck they even advertise a prosecco for kids that’s alcohol free (see robbie bubble?)

weed being legal for the time be as well, I don’t think they bat an eye much for doing “drugs” in a game or series/movie.

that’s been the schizophrenic thing all this time when fighting censorship in gaming by strictly importing uncut media since the early 90s.

basically “will trade tits-n-ass for gore and splatter”

bottom line though, any censorship in entertainment media for adults needs to go, be it showing “natural or bullet made” holes

:rofl:

edit:

only partially.

I mean I sure as :poop: didn’t vote for them bozos in place, if it was up to me, open carry was mandatory with full auto and ammo cheap as dirt :+1: :squinting_face_with_tongue:

second, couple companies do the correct :fu: by skipping germany as a market, I mean any self respecting german player gets uncut keys for steam etc anyways and even swastikas aint boo-boo anymore in wolfenstein.

so dying light not having officially being released but most got the US title in their library, how is it missing out revenue through a different channel of bank transactions?

got an austrian epic account made for dead island 2 cause I like mutilated corpses (don’t judge), which the german version “tries” to censor(simple .exe edit but still too much of a bone for me to throw them dcks) and be playing the game just fine ever since, with an officially bought key.

money can’t be the big issue there :man_shrugging:

idk, I just default to pushing unless they’re a mile away bc the blast zone is so damn inconsistent between the two. I’ve had them blow up nearly right next to me and not damage me if they were pushed, but I get knocked back as if I got hit by a train if they’re down an entire damn staircase.

I’m wanting to add something here as a minor grudge. Curios are boring, still afflicted with he RNG curse and weren’t updated with the crafting update beyond breaking some locks. They could use some attention.

… i don’t want to lose anymore toughness though… =(

Book of Grudges…. Swedish Vacations…2 months

I don’t know that it would mean you’d lose toughness, so much as the blessing component would be customizable. For how bad the current system is I would challenge anyone to get 2 +17% toughness trinkets in a weeks time.

It’s funny, I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a 17% toughness curio on my zealot, who I’ve been playing for years. I make sure to check Melk and Brunt every time I play. But I was able to find 3 of them on my Arbites within the span of a few weeks, even though I have FAR fewer hours in Arbites than zealot.

Us gangers will never get any new stuff I guess…
