I started Licha Underground season 1 and after 4 episodes I'm finding it hard to return.I think the chivalrous commentary is the main turn off for me. Also sexy star kind of sucks and don't like she's being pushed so hard, I also hope the story lines get more ridiculous because o have to stay thus far that's been the biggest let down for me after what was promised from this thread and Wrestling Journalists
....we are literally in the exact same spot (4 episodes in) and have pretty much identical opinions. Striker and Vamp are goddamn near intolerable.
Looks reaaal good. Playing the first level didn't grab me in the least, though. May give it another shot later on since I've got that 10 hour trial thing through EA Access.
I'm trying not to entertain the "wrestling is a super-shitty business at the heart of it all" theory here, but it's really hard not to.
The guy has been cleared by numerous other reputable doctors, but for some reason not WWE's. I hate the fact that it's not out of the realm of possibility that Vince and Co are basically just going to sit on him until he sues them, but this is probably exactly where WWE would want him. They won't release him, holding to the idea he's "physically unable to perform" so he can't go to ROH or Lucha or wherever. But they also won't clear him, so he can't go in and upstage the lunkheads they're trying to push for the main event of the biggest show of the year. The last thing they want is a repeat of the pre-WM 30 backlash.
I don't care about 'end game' at all to be honest. I would be totally fine with spending 30/40 hours to reach max level and then that be it and head on to the next game. People nowadays wanting an 'end game' out of every game, like they pay some subscription every month to play it (especially the case for Destiny).
Having said that I'm sure there will be some 'raid content' that I can't ever play, because you need 7 other people that play at the very same time and you need to coordinate every move with them. I'm too casual for that I'm afraid..
Right with you. "End Game Content" - aka a raid you have to coordinate with a large group for, to throw yourself at a super hard enemy that takes 5 hours and dozens of attempts to beat, is not fun.
I don't want or need this to be Destiny. The Division should be at its best when you're with a small group of friends and taking on some co-op challenges that don't require days of planning and the hive-mind of the internet to come up with a working strategy.
I feel like some stuff needs to get ironed out in terms of "accidentally" going rogue while trying to take down a rogue yourself, but that's probably just something that will have to be tweaked as time goes on.
Loved the DZ stuff though. Heading in there solo was SUPER tense at times. Randomly crossing paths with a crew of 3 guys is pretty unnerving, since there's always half a chance they'll see an easy opportunity and come after you. On the other side, more than once I came across one or two randoms and helped them out with a rogue or a group of CPU enemies, and even without mics we formed a makeshift team to watch each others' backs.
After years of mostly playing games with clearly defined teams of allies and enemies,, this was a heck of a change.
The ONLY way that is going to be even partially salvaged is if they team Brock and Taker together to fight Wyatt and Strowman, and even that would be mostly due to the novelty of seeing them as a team.
