Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
6. No linking to piracy
Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Previously, any cosmetic player skins could be matched with any perk, or class. But now each Sharpshooter, Medic and so on is a hero shooter-style named character
HAH. BYE. If I can't play Mr Foster at all times I don't give a fuuuuuck.
Also lifting hero shooter elements for killing floor..? Eesh.
Popular video game franchises homogenize together so they can make room for new indy games to grow.
Ha ! If only it was this game's only problem!
Yeah I assume it's just a reset so they can go all in on monitization. But at least give us something in exchange for fucks sake.
This was done specifically for money. Paid cosmetics have already been confirmed.
Apparently they didn't get the fucking 2042 memo that hero shooter limited cosmetics are dead
Guess they will fuck around and find out once the player base drops since players aren't tolerating that shit anymore. I know they claimed that perks locked up characters would be unlinked after launch but why wait? They're probably testing the waters to see the players push back (or they have no intention to and hope we forget)
I put a ton of hours into KF1 but never got quite that far into KF2. I could blame it on the progression but I can't really remember if it was all that different from the first game, so I'd probably chalk it up to not having the free time of a college student anymore.
That being said, 3rd entries are rough. You could tell that the first game was made on a limited budget, so 2 offered the opportunity to expand on graphics and gameplay in ways there just couldn't afford before. But once you've done that, how do you expand further? Seems like the answer for this one is "chasing hero shooter trends" which I don't think they needed
