Skyrim was so boring. Combat was shit; the world was bland; every single NPC had the same voice actors; every single area were the exact same. Even when I mod it like crazy, I can't play it for more than 30 mins without getting bored.
At least FO4 was colourful and the combat was actually good.

both are boring, especially the gameplay, the story is long etc ok it's cool but what about making your game actually fun to play so people keep playing until the end?

skyrim feels like your swinging your sword in fucking nothing when they could have made it like dark messiah or chivalry

In general, I don't really like Bethesda games anymore; every single one feels like a half finished piece of shit the developers put little effort in.

Skyrim is okay at best while Fallout 4 is probably the worst game I've ever played in its entirety.
Also overwatch would be much more appealing with a less retarded tickrate and actual servers

Im not sure why blizzard is doing this (probably because they're cheapskates), but ranked matches appartently dont have this issue having a higher tickrate and lower latency.

I mean pick one fucking thing - either free to play with microtrans or high cost with no microtrans at all, you can't do both.

I honestly don't get why people get all pissy about you being able to buy the loot crates or whatever they are in overwatch. They don't gate anything that affects gameplay behind the microtransactions, they're all purely cosmetic and you are able to get them without paying if you're patient enough.

CS:GO has pretty much the same system yet people don't bitch and whine about that. Why? Because the skins are purely cosmetic and don't affect gameplay in any meaningful way.

I'd get the hate if they gated actual tangible game content behind a paywall in a pay 2 play game, but that isn't the case. None of the actual game content, that is to say heroes, weapons, skills, maps etc. are behind a paywall.

Why would you even mention me? I didn't write ANYTHING that wasn't true. The game still costs 60 Euro which is an outrageously high price for such a low-quality game by Blizzard's standards (heck, even 40 is double the price of what any smaller company would charge for it) AND it still has microts.

The only people who defend that game as something revolutionary are either kids or seriously mentally challenged people.
I'm open for discussion if you believe I'm wrong. Tell me how the 60/40 Euro price tags are justifiable compared to other games that actually bring something new to the table and then I may take these shitposts seriously.

As it stands, my argument that it's a TF2 with bland as fuck characters whose worth goes only up to dank memes is valid. I would have no problem with the game what-so-ever (okay, that's a lie, 40 bucks is far too much for a clone) if all the kiddie fans would just admit that it's nothing more or less than a Blizzard TF2 edition, but apparently they're butthurt by the mere use of the word "copy" or "look-alike".

IppE:
The reason I dislike games that do both the microtransactions AND have a price tag is not because I have a problem with it - if I love the game I'm ready to pay some serious money for it, but with the feeling that I get that the company is fucking farming the living shit out of me. It's not directly blocking me from getting anything, but it's encouraging me to spend more money than I'd need to just because of my love for it. The company is essentially using me because I love it.

the reason overwatch is a forty dollar game is that it is meant to be a full, "jump in and enjoy playing" experience. It is watered down for the folks that can't spend a hundred hours obtaining currency and buying characters to play

stop being so pissy over skins, anus. they just make you feel good inside

How the fuck is that an argument? "We deliver you a full game instead of half of it, so you have to pay more for it now".
No, that's not how it works.

When was it decided that a full priced game isn't allowed to have microtransactions in them? Especially if they don't even affect the gameplay in any way? There are numerous examples of full priced games having microtransactions in the past, and while they're generally frowned upon, at least in overwatch it is impossible for them to become a "pay 2 win" situation, which is generally the only negative thing resulting from someone else in the game buying them.

Can you explain why the microtransactions in overwatch are bad or are you just going to say they're bad because you don't like them?

But that's the point of Pay to Play video games, you silly!

Blizzard is quite the generous chap giving the full game, without ANY restrictions, and even a FREE competitive for everyone who paid for 40 dollars. And that is saying a lot because most modern title releases either make you pay sixty dollars for a 3-4 hours worth of dlc and call it a game

1) it's 40 you fucktard, especially so if you don't care about hats
2) it DOES bring something new to the table - it's a moba/shooter mix. it's not reinveinting the wheel, it's making the wheel out of a different material. it has fuck all to do with TF, TF is a basic shooter with characters as generic as possible where you mix your own playstyle together out of different guns (which is basically just a step forward from your typical fps that has no classes and only guns). in OW you pick a character, you know what to expect from it and you need to make it work with the team.
3) I fucking hate micros too but you're literally being assblasted for no reason here, the micros are completely cosmetic and are in no way rubbed into your face. there is ONE button in the game to take you to the shop screen. they are reasonably priced, as opposed to league's 5€ pricetag on skins to add sparkles to them. they give zero advantage in the game, you don't need to touch them if you don't want to, why are you so angry?

using colorful to describe fo4 actually triggers me so hard. if by colorful you mean a palette between sticky poop brown and lung cancer gray, then yes, it's a very vivid world.
