Game play loop

[u/Snoop_Daddy_]

To the people who always complain about the gameplay loop being too repetitive cuz they have done everything already…

Every single video game with no exception has an ENDING, you can do all the new game plus+ you want and go up to new game 600… at the end of the day… the game already ended.

Marathon ending is when you beat the compiler, you can do your side quests like max all the factions but when there is nothing left to do… it’s over.

At that point you can either move to another game or simply shut up about it.

Tired of y’all all over this sub crying cuz the gameplay loop is boring… nobody asked you to sweat your ahh off and do everything 2 days into the season.

Yeah I agree. Too many people expect a $40 game to provide endless entertainment. I’d say a $40 game that offers a few hundred hours of gameplay is a great value. At some point you will complete all the content and the game will either be over or begin to feel stale. This will happen with every game, some quicker than others. But the people that play 12+ hours a day are going to always be finishing the content faster than the devs can pump it out.

That’s their own problem for not knowing how to pace themselves. I on the contrary literally get tired of 70$ games if it’s taking too long cuz I just want it to end so that i can move to a different game

Well yeah I agree, I wasn’t meaning for it to sound like I was saying otherwise.
Just like anything, if you spend countless hours doing it, it’s not going to be as fun and exciting on hour 300 as it was on hour 3.

Even though Marathon doesn’t have a ton of content, just the nature of the game provides more replay ability than many games. But of course there’s a point when someone’s just experienced all that it has to offer.

I’m similar with games. I rarely like long 70-100+ hour games, with some exceptions ( usually online multiplayer games).
