I get preferences ofc and that people may not like the game and that’s fine, but what’s weird to me is the people who say they “want something different” and something this objectively creative and revolutionary for fps genre comes out and they hate on it just bc it’s new. And they also say that the “games are the same” when it allows for so much creatively and variation between games, and they go back to playing cod or something that is LITERALLY exactly the same each game.
Yes brother! I hope that people join us raising this game, and talking about transactions, you can get the battle pass if you do all of the in game currency requirements. Also you get a lot! Of free clothing participating in the events.
My theory is that fps has been very prevalent for very long so people have gotten used to their favorite category and can’t move out of their comfort zone, meanwhile me who didn’t play fps loved it instantly because i hadn’t gotten used to anything
@@cloudboy08I'm in the same boat as you. I tried most fps games, the one I spent the most time is was COD, a whole 10 hours, then uninstalled. Just wasn't fun for me. The Finals though... I got hooked the moment I started playing. I've roughly played 900 hours so far. I suck at the game, but can't get enough
Great video , sadly the finals and any other good game that comes out will be subject to the new “gamer” mentality… no new content every week? Game dead ! My favorite UA-camr/streamer don’t play it ? I don’t play it…the game is not point and shoot only ? I’m out ! No BR? Boring !!! Sadly this is what goes on nowadays! I always have 300 plus hrs on this game and emerald 2 currently! ✌🏽
this game is the definition of ahead of its time. i know this isn’t something to compare, but i heard someone say a while back that if COD advanced warfare came out TODAY (preferably not with the cod title lmao) it would not get nearly as much hate, and would probably be a crazy good title
One of the great things about this game is that it uses familiar weapons like the AK, Lewis gun, MP-5 etc but puts them in an arena shooter type environment that you can rip apart. Makes it understandable what the weapons do and how they're used, but pairs them with movement tech and gadgets that don't match up realism wise. Such a cool concept.
A perfect mix between "Pure Skill and technique" & "Strategy so stupid it works" 2000 kills in 50 hours of playtime of cashout and powershift with: daggers, swords, assault rifles, scout rifles, revolvers, hammers, smgs, light machine guns, grenades, zipline kills with guns, both grenade launchers, barrels, quick punches, dual katanas, flamethrower, pellet and slug shotguns, riot shields, gas, fire, frag grenades, charge n' targe, swords, turrets, bow n' arrow, at least 2 pistols, marksman rifles, pyro, gas, and explosive mines, C4's? *_*bet*_*
Dude, the finals are so fun but like right now more people are talking about negatively for some reason finally, someone who actually understands that the finals is fun and it does not need that much updates
If they invest into esports, then they will most definitely be able to keep up their playerbase for a longer amount of time. Overwatch did this for example in their early year. This studio is a lot smaller though so it might not work out as well.
The reason this game doesn’t blow up is because of its nature. It’s completely disappointing to play solo, there are a lot of quitters and matchmaking is terrible. I love this game, I hope developers can make this game better and the gaming community will give this game a chance.
I don't know why but I really enjoy playing cashout with Randoms. yes it's frustrating when you get bad mates but otherwise it's really fun. they should definitely add the option to rematch with the same mates after the game is over. Just like in warzone
My take: Embark has over-listened to the hyper-casual community for 3 patches now, and the player count still isn't rising, which tells me that pandering to them every patch hasn't been working. Instead of the community banding together to figure out why people quit the game, they make videos or Reddit posts like this explaining why you should totally play The Finals, but don't realize they've trapped themselves in an infinte loop of confirmation bias. They only care about getting new players in, but once those new players leave, they forget about them not understanding that, that new player has to actually stay if the player count is meant to go up. The fact of the matter is: The Finals presents itself as a competitive FPS, but on the inside is actually just a super casual game, with competitive mechanics that aren't being utilized.
Yeah, i think that the game was better (and more fun) in terms of balance in OB. Right now everything feels dull because it was nerfed to the ground. People were whining about getting killed and "were leaving" so they nerfed all the stuff and well guess what happens to competitive guys who were mastering 1 gun for 150+ hours only for it to be nerfed - they don't want to play too. At the end of it all we get casuals who leave eventually because they are still getting their ass kicked (and the lack of well thought out free progression doesn't help) AND semi-competitive players who leave because their main got nerfed + the game is always changing. Man they even nerfed losing in a game - now if u get wiped you only lose 10% of the money and not 30. The defender-bonus cash is mind-blowing for me as well - before it was always all or nothing, you had to get that cashout or you lose and everybody on the map knew that. Now you can just shove it in, wipe a couple of times and call it a day - you still got the money.
I don't care for the rank stuff just seems a waste of time. Yet I do like the game and it's fun most of the time. The events are always interesting mainly holidays. I feel it's going to stay around for 2 decades 4 tops
The finals is Dope, I'm glad I kept an eye on it, played the BETA and then started playing soon as it dropped. I use to be a hardcore COD player and I have way more fun in the finals than COD. Modern COD just feels off to me and not fun anymore. When I say I was hardcore, I'm talking top 10,000 in the world on console. Then I took a break from gaming and came back in 2022 like wth happened to COD. I enjoy PUBG, The Finals, not too sure about Xdefiant yet.
video should have more views
Thanks I appreciate that
The discrepancy between the quality of The Finals content and the popularity is crazy, we really need to advertise this game on the internet
dead game. cant have more views
Nice video. Season 4 needs to be a banger.
Thanks! And yeah you are sooo right
Definitely it could bring the game back
It's actually picking up players again!
Went from an average of 25 lfg posts to 50!
Let's GO!!!

Yeah I hope so!

Exactly this! I've been saying this for years. Players don't know what they want

It has the speed of cod but with the mindfulness of tactical shooters. And majority of those fans don't mix together.

the next cod looks like it is going to be dogsht they have to capitalize on that
this game is more like titanfall, probably has a lot of apex players.

I respect your grind, I hope to see you in WT!
Respect, as long as there is a player base it should work stay okay. However this season is a bit on the longer side
New content every week sounds like a modo created by someone in an insane asylum
Kids nowadays have much lower attention spans so anything new to them that doesn’t make them top frag instantly is too little stimulating to them
"That's right, Scotty" - June
“That’s right, June” -Scotty
This game needs more advertising, right now it's only been spreading from word of mouth
Great video, and thank you all for supporting THE FINALS.!
Commenting to boost algorithm :) Great video!
Much appreciated!

this just shows how a title like the finals will probably be something that people look back on and realize “we had it so good”

The dedicated community will keep The Finals afloat!
I'm hopeful that next season turns things around. With any luck we will look back to S3 as the "gas leak" season..
Man I should make a video on the finals too this game is seriously really good
Never to late!

It’s a great game but just needs advertising. Definitely the most fun game fps I’ve ever played definitely hope it last
Great summary, friend, and great video!
Keep it up!
Thank you for watching!
This game is either very fun, or really frustrating. Not much in between…
Season 1 was an absolute blast!
Dude, the finals are so fun but like right now more people are talking about negatively for some reason finally, someone who actually understands that the finals is fun and it does not need that much updates
amazing video, and a well-earned sub!
i dont get why "only 10000" players play it at the time its easily one of the best games i ever played
This is like the only online game I play it’s just so good compared to everything else out right now
If they invest into esports, then they will most definitely be able to keep up their playerbase for a longer amount of time. Overwatch did this for example in their early year. This studio is a lot smaller though so it might not work out as well.
next season 🙏
The Finals is so unique, It became my Main game!
So far I enjoy the game but they need to add a lot of stuff to keep the audience engaged and happy
Replace Cloak ability, upgrading social and party menus UI
Way too few people are talking vc too which creates less memes/content for the community that gives it an image
@@cloudboy08 i couldnt understand bro aorry. Can you clear it?
My problem with this game is I think the bring out new guns to slow 3 a season is not enough imo
Everyone hopes the same to this game, we supposed to upload more content about the finals, so other people will recognize this game
I try haha
Honestly, my favourite game since it was in closed beta. Really don't understand how so many people don't like it or haven't tried it.
The reason this game doesn’t blow up is because of its nature. It’s completely disappointing to play solo, there are a lot of quitters and matchmaking is terrible.
I love this game, I hope developers can make this game better and the gaming community will give this game a chance.
like this if u hype for season 4 hypeeeee trainnnn
If it just had normal "mind-off" modes...
fr, this game is so fun it needs more players if it dies i’m going to be pissed
If it dies Fps are doomed cuz this game is so good for a game that’s been out less than a year
The only bad thing about this game is that playing solo is an absolute nightmare
Yup, I hope they bring back solo bank it. It is amazing for solo players.
@@NouraTY I had some frustrations with that game mode but now that it is gone I miss it so bad 😭
We need solo cashout back its very balanced with the changes
I don't know why but I really enjoy playing cashout with Randoms. yes it's frustrating when you get bad mates but otherwise it's really fun. they should definitely add the option to rematch with the same mates after the game is over. Just like in warzone
@@selfm8612 I love the way you think about it, I'm definitely gonna try solo again soon!
"The game's progression sytem is designed to be rewarding without being too grindy"....... meanwhile the emerald 1 grind
True, however as a new player there is a lot to progress through for free.
Love the Finals! It definitely deserves more attention. Great analysis of the game. Hope more people see this
Thanks I think it's a great game as well. Let's hope for the best.
Just checked out your channel! Love your content!
@@NouraTY Thank you! I appreciate that. I like your channel as well. Very chill commentary and good variety. I subbed up.

they are currently working on it on every weekly update

this one hit the algorithm, here is a positive comment :)
It kinda looks like it! Haha
Good shit with the vid
Great video
Pick up the game on release, play M and H build
Everyone plays a light build with no util or team synergy
Quit bc fuck dealing with that
Love to see your video in a world where the gaming community wants a fresh game to die.
Glad you liked it!
i love this game
Season 3 is so dog shit its crazy (still gotta grind that pass tho them rewards are lit)
yeah great game and all until you realize its a desyncing nightmare all along.
Good Video
All what you say IS RIGHT...but ITS NOT NEW...😊
Great game. Not as great for solo players. Great game!!
This game is already dead
👎
womp womp your dead
love this game!!
sounds good , the game s trash .
虽然我也很愿意相信tf在未来会成为fps的爆款,但现在的状况实在让人乐观不起来
