  • You have to balance that. A pure healer would need to be so strong that it would become the primary target at all times. Which would be frustrating for both sides. For players playing against it because they can’t really play the game anymore. For the pure healers because they would be under tons of pressure.

    Unfortunately (or fortunately) we (should) design games around a core audience. Chances are that if your ( r my) hypothetical friend isn’t enjoying the competitive part of the game at all, that she (or he) is going to get frustrated at that game at some point anyways. And there are probably games that suit both your needs better to start with. Competitive games may just not be the right choice. Don’t ruin the game feel of those games for those that enjoy them for the sake of non competitive players because that will just create a game that no one actually wants to play.







  • Tarogar@feddit.orgtoGames@lemmy.worldGames like Splitgate? (Halo?)

    Right… Splitgate and splitgate 2 are lies. What you experienced are probably mostly if not all bit matches instead of playing with and against other players. But that is besides the question.

    Realistically there have been no actual good games in that niche in recent years (less than 10 years old) and the old ones are either dead unless you like botmatches or have a tiny community that is really REALLY good and will wipe the floor with you.

    Anyhow Quake 3 (good luck) Tribes 2 (good luck) Unreal tournament 2004 (good luck obtaining legally, also good luck) Halo (LoL last decent one was reach on 360) There’s more but those are even more niche than the big ones already listed.



  • There are reasons for why that is possible, for better or worse.

    To reverse malicious actions that may have been taken by other people that got access to the account for any reason for example.

    There may even be legal reasons for why that is the case. Licensing law can be quite complicated.

    And then there is the fact that if it’s hidden it’s effectively gone anyways and that may actually be what people actually care about. Not whether or not they technically still have that game or not. People wanting a clean library is a thing and it ties into the concept that is the right to be forgotten.



  • I can only speak for Deus ex: mankind divided since I have played that myself.

    It is technically a sequel in the sense that there are other Deus ex games that came before it with the original Deus ex, invisible war and human revolution. That said every single one of those games has it’s own self contained story with only some overlap between them. Mankind divided features the same main character to play from the previous game but everything else is different. From the location to the characters barring one which isn’t an issue for reasons… And is also otherwise completely isolated from the first two games maybe with one Hommage that you might miss If you don’t know the first game but then it’s just a great character instead of the thing it’s supposed to be.

    Long story short, IMHO you can just pick that one up and play it without worrying about missing a ton.



  • Suppose you did that workout anyways, then… You did that workout and did something to stay fit. That said it may be a workout designed to help you with achieving a certain look. So unless you are keen on looking like that it may be better to not do that workout a ton. The reason why it’s named like that may be exactly because it will help you to get that look or to motivate certain people to do that.
