You're going to be waiting a while. Cuz I'm not playing the game to find out. If anyone cared, they could look through other peoples various complaints about the game for themselves.

[i][b]And there's more than three or four ARPG/MMO-type games where you can dodge roll. Believe me.[/b][/i][/quote]

I've played more MMOs than you. 

My statement stands.

If I had said 'unique to the ARPG space' then yeah, I'd be silly. But I specifically said MMO. And most ARPGs aren't MMOs.



[quote]And I know you've said this before. But you're just as wrong as you were before. You can (and should) critique a game's censorship, and various other shitty practices, without suffering them for yourself. 

If only because hundreds more will go "but something something, this is worse and you have no proof they designed their game this way, so you could pay for things later down the line."

Buy your Pokemon Sword&Shield pokedex expansions pack now.

That's not a critique of a game. You can't call a game bad if you haven't played it just as much as you can't call a movie bad if you haven't watched it, a song bad if you haven't listened to it, etc. Well you [i]can[/i]. But your opinion would be about as useful as a puddle of piss. What you're doing is acting like you're an arbiter of quality because you're taking a stand like you're looking down at people because you source your opinion via YouTubers. 

Are you going to complain that the game has altered presets to have darker skin tones or western facial features? Or is that not the kind of 'censorship' you want to wave a flag about because it's not the same as "look at this NPC and slightly less sexy starting clothes!!!!!"? You're being an ass to someone who likes the game, which is uncool and don't even say "lol just my humor" while also being smug about how much you don't care about a game [i]that you care enough to argue about[/i]. 

I already bought the Sword and Shield expansion pass, what's your point? That companies release DLC? And that's bad? Oh, I get it, you think it's a big gotcha that GameFreak deliberately released a game without every single Pokemon and then later...released DLC that still didn't put every single Pokemon in it. 

If you're going to take a stand against shitty practices then you have no room to stand. You literally are playing Warframe. If you're going to be 'muh diversity crowd bad' then at least be honest and not just singularly 'they made an NPC black badly this is an affront!!!!'. 

You know what I do when there's a game I am not interested in? I don't fucking give it any attention. Maybe you should take a page from that book instead of trying to be "I told you so!" or whatever the fuck about a game that [i]many people are genuinely enjoying[/i]. You're not some arbiter of gaming taste. None of us are. We're fuckin' geeks and nerds and arty farty roleplay fans on a small ass niche website. 

Play a game or don't but don't pretend to be some moral crusader especially for a game you're never going to play.
