The Day Before Tomorrow Today
I don't play WoW, I don't play MMO's, I don't watch Asmongold's streams but I just love watching this guy's videos rambling about whatever the topic is
Same honestly. Ironically enough, I dont watch the specifically WoW gaming videos at all.
Same
same, but I always skip his mmorpg videos tho
Same
Honestly it just feels good to watch someone with pretty good opinions and even if he's wrong it makes funny moments
Same! I hate unedited streams but I love clip comps. That's how I even know Twitch streamers exist lol. I technically have a Twitch account but I haven't logged in in years.
Man, this game reminds me of all the potential that The Secret World had. In a way, this feels like a good spiritual successor, even though the genres are kind of different.
Precisely what I thought
I'm not sure about that, since TSW was all about the writing and layered lore. This seems far more emergent gameplay focussed. It's cool to see other games embracing this kind of atmosphere though.
It’s literally following in the foot steps with the melee combat
TSW had great world building and quests that you had to actually do genuine real life research for in some cases, it was a great experience.
Except for the combat. My god the combat was slow.
Likewise. Had me pretty interested because of it, but kinda lost me at "Survival Looter-Shooter". I'm already tired of that genre, and I barely play it.
Really wish we had a TSW successor, it was unmatched when it came to world building, writing and lore.
The melee is definitely something the devs can improve on, I imagine this game will have everything fine tuned by next year plus new content
Game looks like it has a pretty solid ground and it just seems like they need to polish stuff up now
The game is actually really good. It's pretty much A complete game with a ton of content. Fun and engaging. It's just lacking pvp now they don't have it open in the beta yet . It takes a lot of good mechanics from a lot of diff games.
@@rogersmith3094
People get hyped for anything now
@@NyakomataIgnorant people will never learn in their life, you could literally give them a plate of horse shit with glitter just after they have been tricked to eat shit without glitter 1 week ago. Yes I am obviously talking about games like The Day Before, everyone probably forgot what happened already a week ago 🤣🤣🤣
@@figrider play the beta and find out tho. They day before had no play testing for free. If they did people probably found out quick how the game would fail.
From my playtime with Once Human, Energy Link isn't an energy system, it's the ingame currency. easily acquired anywhere on the map basically, some events (coming from the pve mining cave event in level 23 zone) gave me 2000 energy links in less than a minute.
Game definitely needs polishing but it's alot of fun!
Edit: reason why i made the comment is because in the video they're calling it a energy system which to me seems very misleading. Energy links is your most basic form of ingame currency.
This explanation brings me great relief
dont wanna be the party pooper. But that is NOW in the closed beta.
They can easily reduce the energy you can aquire freely or increase energy cost.
most games will incrementally ramp up the energy cost, so that you can easily play till lets say lvl 40 and then, when you are hooked everything gets expensive. And all the late, endgame content costs so much energy that you have to open your wallet
@@unorevers7160 Yep they give you 2000 energy quickly but stuff at end game costs 1-10 million energy. Most won't spend hrs grinding so they'll go to the shop and buy it.
@@unorevers7160And this is what I fear will happen because they and many others probably believe that's the only path they can take.
i know what netease did to their players
This is by far the best experience I've had in a game of this genre this year...and it's still in beta.
This food/water system is technically the same as Valheim though. Thing is that Valheim you start off starving with low hp/energy and you don't see negatives, you only see positives. This just shows you the negatives.
No food/drink = you have lower hp, lower energy, you can spring to shorter time. Exactly like Valheim. Don't know if starving/thirst can make you actively lose HP like Minecraft though, but other than that it's the same, but without showing negatives/debuffs.
Reminds me a bit of The Secret World.
It's a pity TSW didn't take off really (though It's maybe a bit too story/puzzle driven for most people).
A shame for sure. It'd been much better as a sort of coop Resident Evil type experience I think. It was crazy how many iterations it went through as well. Like when it had a sort of 3rd person DMC type combat (which the engine wasn't made for), so it was shitty. :P Story shit was so good tho and that hospital puzzle feels like something that coulda been in TSW for sure.
TSW was great, and unlike this game the enemies actually attacked you xD
Supernatural before supernatural.
@@ahardcorejedi2968 Supernatural is from 2005 tho. :P But the concepts are quite similar for sure.
Woah, I don't know why I thought this made sense. I played TSW late and watched SN late. My timeline is bumf. ave a good one.@@UnholyMistMonster
ok some of asmon's concern are valid and here are some explanation-
food system- Food and hydration drain is pretty rough and you'll spend atleast 5 mins a day to hunt/gather food sources. there are ways to make it less grindy but it is something nonetheless. As per the food buff thing there are buffs in purple and gold tier foods which you aquire through exploration. These give you various buffs like increased stamina, dmg, movement speed etc.
base and fortification- some times while exploring you'll get things like "Extraction permit" and "Cortex". You will have to purify those in the stardust resonator that you build in your base. During the purification waves of monsters will attack the base in order to stop the purification. You'll also enter pvp state so anyone can come and kill you to get the loot. Base upgrade and fortifications help massively in this area.
energy system- there are two types of energy system in the game. Star cronch and star link. Starlink is your avarage currency system and you get more than enough of those through daily tasks. On the other hand you get starcronch through either seasonal goals or purification as mentioned in the point above. These starcronches are the currency you use for gacha(yes there is also a gacha system). As of now the devs have said that game will not be p2w but time will tell if that's true or not.
The game is pretty damn good so far. Optimized well and plenty of fun/cool stuff to do in the beta. Having a blast actually
how are you playing it ?????
@RobertSmith-tu7rl beta was open but they had too many people join up so they had to close it off, they are still giving out codes weekly
@@hoopla5502 ahh ok ok . Enjoy ! I just signed up see if I get in.
You know what this game reminds me of gameplay-wise? Defiance.
No, really, this is what I've lost with Defiance dying, and I'm happy to get it back in an updated form.
That Trout is exactly what you think it is... you can beat people with the trout. You lose 5 sanity for every time you hit someone with it, but in return you gain 5 psi energy which makes the special attack (psi attack) stronger and last longer based on the amount of psi you have. I unlocked that the other day and laughed my ass off at the thought of dropping someone in pvp with a Trout slap. Also in response to that energy system, you can gain that off the 8 dailies given out in each city (each city has 8 dailies so that is multiplicative and not a set 8 only) and doing random world events/quests.
Been playing since the beta opened (it's now closed and requires a code due to too many players) and it's a surprisingly good game. Actually, good is a bit of an understatement, I fucking loved it.
It sounds awfully like fallout 76 though
@@Zabzim ...Because it's a survival game where you loot stuff? If the mere existence of a bad game in a genre puts off of the entire genre, then that's a you problem m8.
I never said that fallout 76 was a bad game@@2ScoopsPlz I actually like the fallout 76 and so I would enjoy a division/FO76 style survival game but I'm under no illusions that a MMO survival game would quickly become the game that is fallout 76 today because that is the sort of game that has mass appeal
Now that you loved it. It's time for the studio to ruin the game 😢
Then you know it's going to be a pay to win game in pvp.
The "Energy Links" is the currency of the game, is not an energy system. The gear has a fashion section, I believe they'll monetize that as they promise no p2w mechanics. And whilst the melee can be improve a lot, is not as bad as it looks in the video, believe me xD
Energy is pretty much like their money system. You can get a lot from selling items you crafted.
Food and certain activities also affects your characters weight which isn't really noticeable unless you eat way too much of a specific type food. For example if you created a really fat character so you can have more weight carry but mostly just eat fruits and veggies while doing a lot of gathering and running, then overtime you will lose weight. XD
I think energy is just gonna be a “currency” you can buy with micro transactions
@@KaboosOnX1that’s starchrom and that’s already in the game (though not currently buyable). That’s the currency the cosmetic shop uses. Energy is just money you get from selling things, looting and completing quests
@@IAmDaDumb1I think the concern here is that you can buy energy with other currencies such as starchrom.
@evangaudet where? I haven't seen anyway to buy energy
@IAmDaDumb1 u can also get weapon bps which is a bit disappointing but considering netease is behind this I'm surprised it's so tame
While I understand people’s skepticism in the context of the day before scam and the fact that survival games are kinda a dime a dozen these days, the game is an absolute blast. There’s a reason that all of the negative comments are almost exclusively coming from people that haven’t played it. The game was in open beta but had to go to closed beta because it got so popular through word of mouth that it overloaded the beta servers. The devs said they anticipated 20k players and ended up with over 100k. Keep in mind this happened with almost no real marketing other than the one shitty trailer asmongold watched
And to clarify, “energy” is just the name of the games basic currency. Right now best easy farm is to just make throwing knives or other basic tools and sell them
we dont need to play a game to see how fking garbage it is an copy right it is and ho much they kept advertising a complete different game every time till final release = scam = false advertising = the day before you got scammed
@@jasonsmith6034when did I mention the day before numb nuts?
@@IAmDaDumb1literally the first sentence you wrote.
Players: what kind of enemies will there be?
Starry studios: yes
The guilds are called warbands and can have 64 players, but for some reason there is also 4 player hives. You have to be a hive leader to apply for warband. A lot of end game progression (calibration ) mats are in the PvP content, and the PvP, while fun, needs to be optimized a lot. Incredibly good game for a beta, and worth playing even if you never want to touch PvP. Haven’t been this hooked by a game in years👍
This is a beta for a game due out in 9 months and it feels like they could release it today and everyone would be happy. Some things need some work but overall I have loved the time I have spent with this game and will carry on spending until the beta ends late January. I can see this being a contender for one of the most played games next year easily, I have put in probably around 50-60 hours already and I am still only 2/5 main bosses in. Tonnes of side quests to do, tonnes of exploration content, the crafting systems, building, world events, PvP zones, boss fights and so much more to uncover.
For those that asking if you guys can create a citadel? Yes. You can, there is a mechanic in the game where player join a massive collection of Hives(Squad) which is called Warbands(Guilds). Basically your Warband can just like claim the whole area of the map and proceed to build structures on the area and just claim the whole area for your whole Warband and make its your Warband territory. Noone can build on it except you guys. Some guys are already doing it although still on small scales, the freedom this game gives you is just awesome.
Also in PVE. There is a Party Wipe Mechanic
I disagree with the idea that food and drink should only provide buffs and not be a survival mechanic.
In open world survival games there is alot of just running around, collecting resources and doing repeated tasks. Adding mechanics that interrupt that stops the cycle from getting boring. So by becoming hungry and thirsty you will end up going on a mission to either retrieve food and water, or create a sustainable food system of your own, which adds a gameplay loop to occasionally help break the cycle of resource gathering.
It also just makes sense. Youre trying to survive, it feels weird just going without food and water in a game about survival. In other game genres it isnt required, but in survival games it absolutely is
Very unfortunate that ForceGamingYT did not do a single event in his 20 hours of play. Probably just alientaed 75% of potential players because of the energy concern when that is very easily solved by doing the world events that occur frequently, which give you a flat 1-3k energy for about 10 minutes of gameplay. These events are re-occurring, very frequent throughout the day, and let you fast travel to them from anywhere for free.
That's in the beta and could easily change. Plus the costs for energy could go up and up to ridiculous amounts causing players to choose to buy it from the shop instead of grinding for it. Ya simply won't know until the game goes live.
I know my comments not relevant, but my issue with base building in modern survival games is the lack of reason. In some survival games, building a secure base actual felt important, because there was a threat and a need to have a save place to do things. Most of these style of games now lack the need to feel safe. You can just build everything on the ground and there is very little threat of your property or yourself being attacked. The reward of base building was that of safety. However, I agree Valheim did a very good job of giving it a rewarding aspect outside of safety, because you didn't really need to feel safe at your base in that game either.
This game has a lot of potential.
I think it clearly needs some polish. But I think most are absolutely fine with it.
Considering this game is set to be released 2024 Q4.
The state it is in just now is already WAY better than most beta games out there.
I would love the movement to be a bit smoother, the vehicle movement to def be smoother it feels too clunky right now.
Placement for building bases needs to be less annoying, also give us free cam building.
Expansion of territory space would be great to see, just a bit would be great.
I think certain quests should be made clearer for players.
New players easily get confused about the rift anchor part.
i think thirst and hunger work well if food and drinks can specifically crafted to give different buffs. or like a well fed buff. and drinking enough water increases stamina regen.
"Aw crap dude! All the SCP's are freed but hey this is fine." The game.
I'm having a blast with this game. You dont know what lurks in every point of interest.
There was this time where I used a catwalk railing to get height and reach a buildings
roof and parkour my way to an awesome chest reward. You need to think out of the box.
Food:
Basic (1-2 ingredients): Eggs, Bread, and Grass // Only fill food gauge
Intermediate (3-5 ingredients): Devilled Eggs, Garlic Herb Bread, Fancy Salad // 20-30% buff, 30min Duration
Advanced(6-10 ingredients): Shakshuka, Fancy Steak Burger // 50%-100% Buff, 2hr Duration
Master(11-20 ingredients, 1-24hr IRL cook time): Beef Wellington, Cassoulet, Baccalà // 150% Buffs, Permanent Stats, No limits
At least it has Melee ;) Could you imagine if a new hyped up MMO RPG open world game came out in 2023 with no Melee?
This guy forgot the biggest thing which is most of the BP pieces can be obtained from a gacha mechanic "Wish Machine" It uses the secondary more premium currency starchrom which is also used in the costmetic shop. This is a tower of fantasy like gacha pon where there is specific item and a limited pool number. The starchrom can be farmed but is a slow grind. This part is what looks like it could end up being the pay2win aspect of the game. Pay2Progress 1000x faster than others.
So glad I got into the beta while it was still open. The game is actually hella fun! i was skeptical at first but hot damn it hits all the right notes for me! The boss fights are fun but they are bullet spongey, specially with 2+ people. Maybe those could be fine tuned but if they have another year to work on this, I can see this game being a major hit. Edit: Yes the melee combat could use a little fine tuning/work, but its serviceable and the guns are the main focus. Really wish it wouldn't be compared to The Day Before after playing it, but before I got to play it i drew the same comparison so its inevitable. The "Energy" people keep talking about is used as currency.
Atleast it looks 5 years closer to a finish state than The day before.
The melee combat being insanely janky and the enemy AI flat out breaking entirely many times throughout the video makes me rather hesitant, but hopefully they can iron that out. I'm wondering if some of that is related to server issues or something.
hunger is to prevent campers sitting in the one spot for hours on end. with hunger eventually u will need to go get more food or drink or u can only take so much food and ammo and still have space in inventory
i dont think some food types should even stack for this very reason. it keeps players moving and interacting
This game will have the same problem as V Rising had.. its the space for base building. Seeing this game getting more attention now, i can imagine on release people will struggle finding a location for their base.
That and the up the ass cheeks monetization it'll have, its launching on android and ios too which probably are the main platform to develope in. So bare that in mind when that fov slider is missing or any other "nice to haves"
The least of this game's problems will be space for base building. It looks and smells like a mobile game that will be horribly monetized.
Resources slowly depleting to provide your base and map is huge. Dont worry about it.
@@ANTONFIXER you mean buy them from the store with OH-bucks ofc
There is actually base decay and they have different worlds on each server, which solves mob density and base crowding. And the contested no build zones are server wide.
So no that won't be a problem.
Hopefully v rising can increase server capacity and do something similar.
I love Valheim but the food buff system is the worst thing about the game. It's not that I don't like customizing my character to be sturdier or have more stam, it's that you have to reapply the 3 buffs CONSTANTLY or u are basically a limp noodle. I would rather start out a usable character and then have buffs on top of that as a perk, more like the V Rising blood system.
The food system of Palia (MMO Community SIm) works great too. If you eat, you get focus. If you have focus you get additional experience for your skills. If you don't have focus, you experience goes very slow. So it is not mandatory, but it is very useful to have focus. Palia's method would work in these kind of games as well.
gotta love asmongold complaining about food and water not giving buffs, then he is told food and water give unique buffs based on their qualities, and he just entirly ignores it and still dies on the hill
I don't think i saw a single non boss mob that moved more than a few inches in a direction this entire video, do they even interact when attacked?
It's worrying, taking enemies doesn't look too different from chopping down trees for materials
The basic zombies are pretty passive but every enemy above them is pretty aggressive once aggrod. They do need to work on their Aggro range though since you do have to get pretty close it feels like
In further in zones you fight armored personnel with guns and the zombies get stronger and better AI also the zones with have major sanity penalties that you need better masks and heals to manage
6:42 thirst and hunger are the "Sacred Cow" of survival games, its put into the games just to be able to say that its a survival game. the biggest problem with the food/water system is in nearly every single game that includes it, the system becomes a complete afterthought where you are forced to click on a food/water every X amount of time just so you can go back to ignoring that system for another X amount of time, very few games have been able to sculpt that system into something actually interesting instead of something you're forced to do just because.
Valheim was mentioned but if you really take the time to review their food system, you are still forced to get the food buffs anytime you want to adventure
hunger and thirst systems used to be there "for the realism", the RP, immersion, call it whatever. Now they exist just as fillers, timesinks, it's a never ending gameplay loop to keep you busy when pve/pvp content is slow or dead
Oh, thank god! I hated PVP everywhere!
I feel like people are forgetting that mmo stands for massive. Nothing about this game screams mmo based on the footage.
Map size, players per server and clan size/activities
This is a reskin and reimagination of the Ubisoft game, "The Division." Same 3rd person aspect, the same gear, and character animations, respirators are identical, gun load-outs, damage numbers...and I'd imagine a lot more. This is another asset sale.
Since the "Pay-to-win" was a big subject, if you google them, they're (currently) saying:
> No Pay-to-Win: In the future, our main form of monetization will be focused on cosmetic purchases. We will ensure that the power gap between players remains minimal, creating a fair and low-pressure gaming environment.
The dev liaison said in other streams that they do not want pay to win mechanics and Nexon would have to kill or fire them all. They did say potentially a battle pass though they would prefer not to have it.
I am in the Beta and it is awesome. I am a little bit afraid of the gacha and possible P2W but right now it is very nice. I have some performance problems here and there but i hope they will fix most things until end of next year.
This is a mobile game first of all. It will be p2w to the max. Check Undawn and Life After which are predecessors of this.
Name of the game plz
@@SameerPlayIN once human
Devs have already said there won't be any p2w in the game, any micro transactions will be for cosmetics only.@@johnwalker3602
You can get gacha currency for completing season goals and doing warband pvp.
Just consider they have been working on this game for years. They would have seen fntastic steal all the oxygen for 2 years when really, this group should have been getting that attention.
on the energy system what i do to make energy is by crafting a bunch of pickaxes and selling them
The melee looks like simple combat that gets enemies out of your way if they get too close so you can shoot others ones I've played that comes to mind is Ghost Recon, PUBG,Fortnite and H1Z1. The melee reminds me of those types simplified melee mostly ranged combat focused.
This game is yes. That's the best way to describe it. I have 60+ hours into it and am currently capped. There are some issues with a few resources for crafting. Acid is used in a lot of the things you need, such as heals, smelting, and ammo. You'll find yourself farming mobs a lot. Food crafting will give buffs, you get pets for your house that will produce resources used for character enhancements, and you have vehicles that you can upgrade. Also, you can move your base wherever you want (6 hour c/d after hitting lvl 25).
Saying survival games don't need hunger/thirst mechanics is asking the game not to be a survival game anymore. Mechanically, it's not all that different to stamina, or ammo.
I agree though that Valheim has the best version of that kinda system
It has BB from Death Stranding, Anomalies from Control, fighting & open world mechanics from The Division. A big ass map like Ghost Recon - it pulls from almost every game in my Steam library :D
energy is the currency in the game "basic" but they do have a shop currency but you can only buy cosmetics as far as I know
The energy system is NOT P2W. You can endlessly run dungeons and boss fights to farm energy. Ive been playing the whole beta and never had to stop playing becauee of lack of energy. Its an easily farmable currency. The devs have also stated the monetization will be 100% cosmetic and not impact gameplay.
The setting, aesthetics and even the choppy combat style really looks a lot like Secret World, Funcom's old unpolished gem of an MMO. But probably the survival elements will take over the gameplay and story will take a backseat so it couldn't live up to that high bar, but it'd be awesome to see a Secret World 2.
The "controversial" energy ( dollars, gold, however you wanna call it ), it's everywhere and in everything. You have TONS of it naturally and so far, i'm in mid game and it is such a non issue, I never ran out of and needed more.
Yeah I always have like 10k and it’s easy to farm if you ever need more
@@IAmDaDumb1 Will it stay that way? It's obviously in beta atm and could easily change.
I don’t agree on the whole food and water system stuff. Even by having food and water be buffs that never turn into debuffs it still means that you are weaker if you don’t always have a buff. You are weaker if you don’t use food, in either style of system. One is just more customizable in what the buff is.
best thing about the territory system is that you have to fuel the "generator" to keep the territory in the location you chose. Helps not keep everything so cluttered. It's pretty fucking cool.
Yeah wont hold my breath. I'm so jaded over the last 10 years. I'm good waiting until I see gameplay from players, and not selected reviewers.
There’s already plenty of that. There’s over 100k players in beta and its reception has been pretty positive from all the people playing it (including me)
Yup same
I've been waiting for you to make a video on this game. I have been playing it all week.
Game name?
Once Human @@SameerPlayIN
Same it’s a blast
Is the melee that bad?
@@mal4797it’s pretty rough but melee becomes irrelevant pretty early since ammo is easy to craft
A semi-open-world Remnant MMO would be awesome. Especially if we get housing.
Division 2, looter shooter with crafting. I like it.
Gold is currency in WoW: *Sleep*
Energy is currency in Once Human: *Awake*
Thirst, hunger etc are the main reason I never play survival games. They simply aren't fun to deal with.
The devs said in the discord that the only paid items will be cosmetics and the game is free, but imma wait and see if that will change
When you play a game like dayz food and water are game changers being able to hear a enemies belly grumble hiding in a bush can mean the difference between life and death
This gives me such nostaglia for The Division, the first one. Forever chasing that high.
10:36 FFXIV resting in a sanctuary area gives you a rested buff that increases experience gain for a bit after coming back if you log off in the sanctuary
You know, I've heard a lot of talk about this game.
However, I didn't expect it to be just Fallout 76 with wacky spooky dimension hopping horror game boss fights. Honestly as someone who played and enjoyed a lot of 76, this went from "eh" to "Please don't fuck it up".
Moving territory as you progress in the map. Map is divided into areas. each area main goals is to loot farm specific materials to craft better gear and new constronction features. that will allow you to fight the boss of the area. so you need to move your territory often. you have main territory and you have small camp and settlements which are NPC areas. all these are spawn points. the best when going to a stronghold is to get a camp (small) to use as respawn to get faster to stronghold in case you die. the map is huge not easy to get back.
So... Remnant Control SCP MMO?
I actually kinda like the melee 🤣 The "energy system" is just a currency, it's like wood and stone for crafting things, you just farm it and use it, it's a resource like any other.. There is no p2w and no pay for convenience at all
And what is the difference between the food system you like and the food system you don't like? In the one you don't like you have 100 health by default, you don't eat and drop down to 80 health until you eat again and go back to 100 (you call that a punishment), and in the one you like you start with 80 health, eat to go up to 100, until it runs out and you drop down to 80, then you have to eat again to go back to 100.. It's the exact same thing
Damn ForceGaming really messed that up. Energy Link is the money system in the game. Like Gil or Zeny or Gold or $. Fighting bosses/farming silos literally gives thousands. There's no Energy system in the game. There is however a Gacha system that we need to be cautious of since getting blueprints is so addicting
The term "Energy Link" is kind of misleading. It's not a capped resource that resets on a daily basis (like Genshin), it's the worlds basic currency. You can get it from quests, looting boxes and enemies, or selling unwanted things to merchants at settlements, or even setting up a vending machine at your base and selling directly to other players. It's by no means difficult to get or rare at all. Doomers looking for a reason to doom.
Hunger and thirst is a core part of what makes survival games what they are. They should however be able to remove it if you want.
This is literally Fallout 76 but with a Division theme and combat if it was paranormal instead of a Fallout theme and combat.
I thought the original trailer was good... but I like horror, so I think those elements of the trailer appealed to me. This definitely showcases better what the game is about.
Ah here we go again, new Mmo that will "rule" all other MMOs for a week
hunger and water should give you buffs like in real life... try to pass time with no water or food to see the debuffs start to stack on your ass.
energy, stamina, "sanity" and food and water. i can almost guarantee you at least one or two of these will be tied to money.
also, the melee, it seems like everytime he swings that hammer, the creature flies back the opposite direction.
the way they give 3k keys out each friday is the biggest let down, should be beta for all to test not a select few
For the food points, it’s literally all the same systems, just different dressing. Most systems give you a penalty if you don’t eat, Valheim gives you the buff, but makes you forget the penalty is the default. It’s just perception and order of operations lol.
The mechanics of thirst / hunger i think runs on a case to case basis.. In DayZ for example i feel it's absolutely dumb. You spawn in, starving, no food anywhere because what miniscule amount of it exists on the map is already looted and you'll die to it before any undead threat. Even if you have a backpack full of food you'll still need to eat every 5 real minutes or so else you're plagued with the dreaded hunger gargle.. frankly it's horrible. In PZ however, it wins on so many levels; it affects your other attributes i.e carry weight, stamina etc etc and motivates you to keep actively playing but isn't so aggregious you'll die within 10mins of starting a run. Custom and dynamic cooking recipes in PZ are always a joy to craft and make it more of a feature than a mandatory do-or-die mechanic. Balance it enough so it's not the central focus of the gameplay loop and it's usually enjoyable.
them eyebrows went ham when he said energy system
the game is Free-to-play with monetization system like in Path of Exile, there is no and never will be pay-to-win this time. You can make energy like walk in a park... you just boost up your weapon and go to second boss and with propper dmg you can kill it with 3-4 magazines which is like 1 minute fight or less, and BOOM you get 960 energy, reapeat that a couple of times and you are set for major of playtime, so don't worry about that, only gatcha thing is Wish Machine which rolls rare blueprints if you are lucky where you spend stardust which in fact is little and i mean LITTLE harder to obtain, still no microtransaction for it you just play and get it. Do some research before starting to cause panic among potential new players :D
You've never heard of a game being different in beta, than release? How can you speak so confidently about never having oay to win? It's owned by Netease and will be on mobile. You sound like the biggest shill ever. Game looks interesting, but let's not pretend it's reasonable to be skeptical.
@@joshholmes1372 just mark my words and come back to this comment on release, not everygame has to be filled with microtransaction to be playable just becasue Asmon is saying stuff like this xd
OMG Asmon with the Kings Quest reference...As a kid I needed so much help with that.
Food system and valhaim good system shows exactly why you should encourage people to do something instead of punish. You want them to move? Set different point of interest with something. You want food mechanics? Give them buffs for eating. Rewards insted of just punishment for not eating in time. Not having those buffs is punishment itself because especially in pvp environment it's big disadvantage
I just wished this game has OCE services, us Australians connecting to your US services will ruin the experience for both parties. Hopefully they announce something soon about this.
32:29 you cam sell materials to gain energie. Just farm some materials sell and you gain energy from it.
According to the devs which take it with a grain of salt the cash shop is purely going to be cosmetic, they don't want any pay for power or convenience stuff. There is also a gacha arcade system for blueprints but that also is a seasonal currency you won't get with cash shop. That all being said there's been plenty of devs that said NO P2W then added P2W so have to wait and see.
Hey the Piano makes total sense, Pete Venkman use a piano to torture spirits!
these reviews never address the most important factors for open world MMO survival games: How many servers are available? Can players from all over the world play? Or is it another game where OCE players get cucked by horrible ping? Are there modded servers? Only official servers? Are there admins? How many people can realistically play on a server at once? Do you need a pre-existing bunch of friends to be able to enjoy the multiplayer elements? (which is detrimental to people who like to play solo in these games, but still be amongst the multiplayer community, like rust for example - where being a solo is a preference for many people)... It's great to see an in-depth analysis of each element of the game, but I only care about these things through the lens of how fun/accessible the multiplayer experience is.
Bruh I didn’t know about the comfort thing about the rested bonus holy shit man valheim is fln sick
5:11 game is open and allows you to do what you do. Like every game should be. Funny for this gotta be a compliment
This dev team probably went out for drinks and took a week vacation when The Day After turned out to be a scam.
i agree with the melee, it's really slow to be honest i barely use my melee weapon in-game since it's hella slow
You can npc tools to get energy. Energy is like the ingame gold.
"Does Starfield know about this?" lmao
It functions at least and feels better overall than a day before
Cant wait for the ingame cash shop with bluprint star boosters and energy restore packs.
