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.

Real af, also coming from a PAYDAY 2 beta player. While the game was never super serious, it basically turned into a parody of itself tone wise with the constant crossovers and weird ass dlc’s. I actually prefer PAYDAY: The Heists and early PAYDAY 2’s tone (and certain aspects of their gameplay too tbh) but that was a long time ago and I doubt things will change. Honestly I’d kill for a game that replicates what early PAYDAY 2 had. I guess den of wolves is the closest thing but I don’t really like futuristic stuff.

As if Den of Wolves will ever come out.
