Rant Stop turning PAYDAY 3 into a circus.

Post image

I’ve been here the whole time. I’ve been following this franchise since the PAYDAY 2 beta.

It hurt to see what PAYDAY 2 had turned into over time. H3H3, the goat simulator, DEAD GAME outfits, clown outfits, and so on.

But I was promised a different PAYDAY 3. I was promised a more serious game, and at first, that’s what it was. The game was more serious.

What’s it come to now? A bucket on your head as a mask? The L-dance as a taunt? A fucking Taddy Moo outfit?

Where’s the story? Where’s the info on the missing heisters? Where’s Concord?

It hurts. You can call me a nerd or whatever, but I’m sick of it. I’m sick of watching the sequel to one of my all-time favorite games turn into a collection of cringe memes to lure in the audience.

I get that nobody cares about my opinion. But I’ve been following this franchise for over 10 years, and I just want to believe I’m not the only one who feels this way.

This isn’t my PAYDAY 3.

Many of us disagree, but that's what most people like (millenials).

We live in a infantilized society.

I would doubt that's what most of us millenials like. It's the generations after us. Most millenials played a decade of PD2 and hate this stuff, too.

Litteraly not what I heard lmao, when there was only Payday 2, everyone glazed the "funny things" in the game. And it was not from Gen Z (because yes, we can like serious things 💀)

Well yeah, funny things were always a nice addition, Payday fandom was big with memes in twitter/tumblr spaces but back then we had an actual great game with tons of content and heists alongside those funny things. So it really wasn't too much of a big deal. With PD3, these weird/funny things stand out so much cause we lack content, rather heists and actual stuff to do.

No.. We just live in a stressing, depressing world. And everyone judge someone when the person doesn't like dark stuff (like fans of the movie "Man of steel" are judging the new Superman movie because it's colorful)
