    Very rambly comment, sorry It for some reason copied the huge ugly blocky UI design of OSRS, as if anyone wanted that? It's not an artistic expression for massive boxes to take up 70% of your screen and you are left with an 800x600 game. The skills "resetting" is one of the worst things. It's not a reset in the sense of reset, but Andrew had to come out and say multiple times that you aren't losing anything. If the main guy behind the game has to come out and explain it multiple times because every single person who played it thought/felt like it was a reset, then it's a bad system. Noone seems to like it, if you understand it it might be like "yeah okay fine", but it doesn't add anything to the game. All the combat professions are the same because the combat is that so why have a different combat profession? It would make more sense if each of the "new" professions built on the previous one, if the previous skill got "upgraded" to the new one or something. Example: Forager goes to level 50, after level 50 it upgrades to gatherer. There is things in the first zone that would need gatherer levels or higher forager levels, and there is things in the second zone that would need lower forager levels or higher gatherer levels, I'm not a game designer but I feel like this would result in some continuity and a reason to head back to previous episodes or zones idk but it just doesn't feel good or make sense when all of the professions including combat is clicking on something and waiting. I also find the little diorama puzzle piece scenes really weird, it makes the game feel much smaller and claustrophobic. Look at that beach, why is that beach split into multiple parts? There is 1 tiny gap separating it but it's a different zone for some reason

In RSC you had 3 different combat stats, atk, str,Def and you were able to switch weapon stance on each tick - changing how the combat works for that tick and also allowing you to customise your stats/character. You also had supplementary combat mechanics like magic+prayer. Bs combat system has none of these.

    A big part I think you missed is gower talked about the episode system being good for people who play less. When a new episode drops and they are hundreds of levels behind the hardcore grinders they can jump into the new episode at almost the exact same starting point. That's really the whole idea behind the system.

You can't enter new episodes without completing previous ones and meeting the overall level requirements. You'd have to go back and catch up anyway. That, I think, is the crux of the issue. The episode system as he describes it has promise, but the system as it is implemented doesn't.

      I really enjoy the game. I think it fails at it too. The game separates the professions in different episodes but it still feels like you're just going to that grinding spot to do it. They can't add new episodes all the time either that would be a lot of work. Plus if you did then they would just be reusing the old content running it as new in later episodes. I don't mind the separation of content honestly. I think it works besides the combat it just doesn't feel good at all. I'm also not feeling the separation in gear. It definitely makes combat feel worse most people are having issues with it.

    FYI pve combat in runescape does have a lot of room for skill expression, these days especially. Not even considering RS3 and how wildly complicated the combat in that game is now (significantly more involved than a game like modern WoW, btw,) but even old school runescape, the team has taken that engine and done really marvelous things with the system to bring out the best of the simplicity of the combat.

    • @ketsandhisgames
      @ketsandhisgames 10 днів тому

      I'm more inclined to compare this game to OSRS than RS3 and, sure, compared to how OSRS started out, combat is better now but it's still incredibly simplistic and _mostly_ one-dimensional. Plus it only ever gets interesting at pretty high levels with a LOT of hours put into getting there (most of which is spent with no skill expression at all - ammonite crabs anyone?).

    • @GibsnRage
      @GibsnRage 10 днів тому

      @ketsandhisgames this is mostly valid except they continue to expand the lower levels too! Now days you can get to interesting pvm content as early as base 40s which for an experienced player can be done in less than a day! Theyve fleshed out mid game pvm extensively with varlamore, sarachnis, and even wilderness bosses! True though, the most interesting content with the greatest room for skill expression doesn't start until late mid game, with toa and cox. But when you look at it this way, modern MMO's have the same problem I think. FFXIV doesn't get skill expression for MONTHS, way longer than you need for RuneScape. WoW grind to endgame is much faster but again, you don't get challenging content until mythic+ and raid. Edit: the exception would arguably be gw2, but I think it's just a hard argument in that game since there's nothing forcing you to play well. Keyboard mashing will get you all the way to endgame.

      I don't disagree, but ultimately, the decision of its fairness will come down to how much is locked behind it in the future, imo.

    The reason I feel like it's a stand against subscriptions, is because you're actually paying for content. If a season gets delayed, you're not still paying while waiting. It's a direct payment for direct content. Yes you can boil it down to a subscription, but in actuality it is much more consumer friendly this way, and puts more pressure on the devs to ensure content releases are both good and on time.

      I also think its a decision based on preventing bots and gold farmers. It could push people towards buying members sure but If it was about getting more money from players I doubt this is how they would approach it considering there are no microtransactions.

      @@ketsandhisgames I don't think premium pass is presented as optional at all, it's presented as the full game, while the free version will be more like a tutorial that still has a ton of content. You test out the game in free to play, but the point of it ultimately has to be to get the full experience in the end.

    Awesome vid. Heard some things here and there about this game but really had no idea what it was. I feel like you honestly delivered the *important available* facts regardless of how excited/unexcited you are for the release of the game. Knowing it was F2P before watching your video I was intrigued to jump in day 1. How hopeful are you that f2p will be a viable way to play the game both for the first week or two and indefinitely?

      @@fierce1340 I'm glad you liked the video! I think for a couple of weeks or so, F2P is probably going to be pretty good. Beyond that, I'm quite doubtful. With entire areas being locked behind the Premium Pass, you'll be missing out on not just loads of quests, but also access to materials and resources found in those areas for professions. I think being F2P will pretty much have the same restrictions as in RuneScape, which would make it pretty unviable after a couple of weeks at most.

      @@ketsandhisgames I'm hopeful that the model the are presenting will be something along the lines of always having some areas being premium, but when they release the next new premium areas, the previous ones will become available for free to play players. This model would really only be a bummer for hardcore f2p players who are getting in day 1. They will probably hit the wall and feel the pressure to buy the premium zones, but if someone starts playing in 6 months, there could be tons of content for them to work through until they finally hit that wall. It wouldn't be perfect but I like the idea of hitting the wall and just taking a break and coming back to the game later to continue as a f2p player.

      If I dropped 100 USD for 5000 Lucent right now and bought all the gear you have, would I hit 2500 GS without any of the work you put in running the dungeons and bosses? That's the litmus test that I try to explain in the short, and regardless of whether you think it's a problem or not, the answer is yes.

    Evasion is required for PvP, if you’re not hitting 1600 melee evasion minimum you will die instantly to any good player with an equal GS.

      @ what’s broken is that it’s an all or nothing stat, if you don’t beat there hit you get nothing for having it. Until we get T2 with better endurance and more viability stuck with pushing evasion like crazy just to survive
