That and Rogue-like isn't a favorite either. I might still try it, though.

This so hard. What they really mean is they created a dozen or so assets that the engine kit bashes together into what ends up being a samey landscape.

Also, I'm throwing in "early access". Especially if I can look up how long it's sat in Early Access.

MMO

Three or more of the "quintette of crap"
  1. Early Access
  2. Survival
  3. Open World
  4. Crafting
  5. Zombies


MOBA

EOLVN

Facebook login

"From the devs of (big popular game)" when it's not clear who the devs are and how big of a responsibility they had in the name dropped game.

Battle Royale

Game title or cover art is an obvious rip off of an existing game.

MMO
MOBA
Battle Royale
Roguelike/lite
Ultra-Challenging

I don't have a lot of patience for failure anymore, so games that are purely competitively multiplayer or games that are all about incredible difficulty just don't click with me. Games are a happy place for exploration and power fantasy, idc if I'm a filthy casual for it.

This, more than anything this will turn me off. Like, if it's worth playing it'll be more worth it in 3 years if it's still alive and had a bunch of updates AND the price will have dropped. But I'm not gonna ever actually remember because they always fizzle out within a year tops.

Instant nope from me. I wish From Soft would make a new Armored Core already. There's been one rumored to be "in development" for like 6 or 7 years now.
