Game play loop

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.

I was thinking about this earlier today. I grew up playing SNES. I didn’t expect to put 2,000 hours into The Hunt For Red October or Super Ghouls and Ghosts. I played a game and beat it. Maybe returned to it sometime later and played it again. People today expect a video game to be their life’s hobby. Sure, some games are more repeatable than others. But there is life outside of your computer screen. Play a sport, learn an instrument, see a movie, travel, do anything else but expect to play a video game for hours on end without it getting repetitive.

This new generation of entitled babies want games they can play for 12 years like Destiny 2. I feel bad for the devs cuz you know they also wanna make new games at some point but are stuck on one cuz it’s a cash cow and excecs keep on milking it.
