The deception is part of the game’s world. The game literally has NPCs who troll you.

Yet another “why is this even an article on Kotaku?” moment.

I don’t post notes like this in Soulsborne games, nor do I find them funny... however, getting tilted enough to make a 2 page dissertation on the matter is fucking ludicrous. Go outside. Lighten up. Do literally anything else with your life.

This game has so much wasted potential it’s rather tragic. Boring world, few enemies and worse most are just recolors for difficult. Incredibly grindy crafting system for pointless returns, criminally underused mechanics (which this illustrates how simple yet powerful they are and how nothing cool was done with them…

Its a Blizzard game. Diablo 2+Expansion is still ~$20.

look, I really enjoy Diablo 3, but the story campaign is atrocious

Diablo 3 is pretty expensive game given how old it is. Even on PS4.

More suiting for space war.

Yeah, sorry, the “known murderer” thing is stupid. I get it, they think they’ve cracked the problem, ahead of time, of people killing others wantonly in order to grief/troll them, but they really haven’t. I guarantee the system gets neutered out of necessity within the first couple weeks of release.

I’ll be skipping this one for not releasing it on Steam.

Im glad they released this info. Now I know for certain I dont give a shit.

If you kill a player who never accepts your invitation to do PVP, you become a “wanted murderer.” You get no caps or experience.

thanks to more info I am more and more certain I wont be picking this game. it sounds to be everything i hate :D

“Is it still wrong that I want this to fail?”

Nope, makes sense to be worried. 

Hmm, good point. Never underestimate the lengths griefers will go to grief.

Well, there’s always Fallout: Miami to keep people occupied.

Is it still wrong that I want this to fail?, because if it takes off for Bethesda, we will never see a proper Fallout 5 and Fallout modding as we know it will almost certainly be dead.

There will be private servers as well as mods.

Yeah that doesn’t sound fun in the slightest.

This sounds...pretty lousy actually.
