It's both #payday and release day for Once upon a #Katamari. Coincidence? I don't think so.
Seriously? Score!
#payday
Sounds like only management is getting a payday.

I had Monaco 2 on my watchlist. Now it’s on sale and it reminded me that I never really joined a multiplayer game in the first one. Because I’m afraid that being a noob I will ruin the game for everyone. Same with Due Process. Of course that is a vicious cycle where I keep being noob but don’t join a game out of fear of doing a noob thing. Not noticing something important, not timing something right, etc
Multiplayer in itself is not a problem, I have been playing other multiplayer titles. Both as a noob and a veteran. But the heist theme feels daunting
In a way I feel Payday was kind of easier in that regard because it was geared towards that “oops, I guess we are shooting now”
Has anyone had similar feeling? I probably should “just do it"
I feel like on the first game I should warn the lobby that I’m a noob, at which point I expect half of them to leave :D

A MASSIVE L for game ownership. Starbreeze has set up a subscription-service to play JUST "Payday 2" on Steam. I really hope this does NOT become a industry norm. Get all the details in my new vid here: https://youtu.be/291YshnwzQM
I still hope we will see a new #PayDay done right.
Part of the success of the first game was simple: it was dirt cheap. It didn't try to milk your wallet. It tried to bring your friends along.
Until #Starbreeze doesn't understand that, it will stay as a niche game with <1K players average.

Moja przygoda z #PAYDAY 2 zaczęła się od... memów na YT. Algorytm jakoś podrzucił mi shitposting związany z grą, więc postanowiłem sprawdzić o co chodzi - tym bardziej, że grę w podstawowej wersji miałem za darmo. No i teraz mam nabite 1260 godzin. ;)
Z tego miejsca pozdrawiam MarioInATopHat za te wszystkie lata brainrotu. ;)
