It's been a long time since I've gone on a little rant like this but here's the 2 things that got my attention just these last few days that turned the week into derp.
First off DMC, yes I ranted about this shit before and going to do it again. Dante still ain't Dante, missing the attitude which is one of the main things that made Dante be himself, as well as the fact that he never even had to swear... Or at least he did, but within 10-20 seconds of watching a video of the game they already dropping the f-bomb which was never used in any DMC game at all. Next up, combat is a joke in how you can score up in the A rank within a matter of seconds... Yes a matter of seconds and within an extra 3 with the demonstration was already in SS which took QUITE some time to get up to . Next they did the same to Virgil... Oh boy did it hit him like a freight train too... And much less voice just doesn't seem fitting. Regardless it just feels as a cash cow being thrown in just for the sake of attempting to milk what's left of DMC, and I'll get into this aspect of new IP's and what not later.
One fucking video, over 400 people on Skulltag/Zandronum for one mod. Nothing else can be really said about this as I don't care much about the mod but the fact that there's that many people playing a mod... Where was this sort of traffic before hand anyway?
And here's the final issue which ties in well with the beginning DMC milking experience. First off Tribes Ascend was a good game but later on down the road just something about it makes me now... Well dislike it, regen health and then autos, why autos you ask? Well here's where it gets down to the idea that tribes is supposed to be the "World's Fastest Shooter" yet it only attempts to do that by you gaining speed, if it weren't for skiing you'd be slow, autos they rape you going fast because you can barely turn as well as a refire rate that allows mistakes to happen in their aim. Unlike a spinfusor which takes quite the time to reload and is only one shot each time. An auto however generally has at least 20+ ammo to refire your ass with.
Now where I should have started the 3rd paragraph (If you even want to call the 2nd one a paragraph) fuck I'm distracted will finish bitching later
