AstroWolfie Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 How about the meta? It ruined some games for me, cause I ran stuff that wasn't "meta" and any time I asked for tips on how to improve playing, they just said it wasn't "meta". I ignored it but I never got help, other than guides from back when those things were "meta". How about the meta?

AstroWolfie Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 If it isn’t over the top it’s great. KSP’s meta with the Nerv engines is great cause it isn’t forced. You can use what you want and still succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbiloid Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Caravan in Fallout is a queen of the meta-gaming. In the game you collect cards to play the in-game game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfluous J Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I love the idea that the actual game is Caravan, and Fallout is just an elaborate meta game constructed around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They failed being hired by the actual Las Vegas casinos, and made their own Las Vegas, with blackjack caravan and... robots. That's how the Fallout: New Vegas began.

Iapetus7342 Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 If you expect me to follow an NPC to protect them but they walk ever so slightly faster than my character, we are no longer friendsl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbiloid Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 The in-game relatives. Fallout 3 is poisoning the game with searching for dad, Fallout 4 - with searching for son. And they are reminding of this on every occasion. I'm just an invisible evil entity, possessing the body of the innocent character, why should I care of this every minute, and have some feelings to the thought-out NPC? I have my own sympathies and antipathies to the NPCs which you gave to me, and they differ from the forced by the plot, why do the devs think that I need a forced love?

You can use what you want and still succeed. really depends on the game type. if its a pvp game then meta just kills almost every option you have and you end up doing the same thing over and over again. this makes games boring. at least make the meta a rapidly moving target so the game doesn't get dull.

Ryaja Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Unearnable premium currencies. Like if you make a premium currency at least make it possible to earn it, I bought the game usually and don't wanna spend more money unless the game is really good.
