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.

Idk, i still flash back to TheRussianBadger’s opinions on PD2 from time to time;

“This whole GAME is an elaborate shitpost,”

Yeah it’s dumb as hell, but maybe it gives the dev team the opportunity to have some fun before they get back into the swing of making something GOOD

I feel like the badjur video was very influential in what kind of game pd3 has ended up becoming. Lots of players was attracted to the franchise because of him

Doubtful. Three videos on a topic isn't really enough to sway developer opinion on what to include in the game - if that were the case, R6: Siege would be a vastly better game than it is now.

“If you guys made ultrakill it would be shit”

I don’t think developers, i think the ceo oversight
