It’s been a challenge for devs to find ways to make each weapon pickup rewarding without constantly having ATK number go up.
Division 2: Every spare weapon can be dumped into the Specialization research for that weapon type. If not, it probably has unique weapon mechanics that are interesting if nothing else
Zelda TOTK: All weapons break, so even a duplicate of an old weapon will let you keep swinging that weapon type
Forbidden west did have allot of that, I get purple grade weapons to gear up for quest and it rewards me with the same weapon 2 tiers lower than the shop in town.
Borderlands I would spend 6 hours until I find a gun that didn't spend more time reloading than shooting and pray it doesn't fall under the level curve for a few minuets. Love that game in principal but so many shit guns with the RNG system.
Is there a game that will analyze the weapons you’re using before doing a random drop so that the 10 minute boss battle has at least some semblance of a reward?
It also scaled unique items. That cool glass sword with the frost damage enchantment and unique blue glass texture? Its strength entirely depends on what level you were when you finished the quest that rewards it. Unenchanted standard weapons would usually outclass it in maybe two hours.
In Vermintide when you open a crate (the primary reward for doing things in-game), what is inside is based on what you already have, so even though everything rewards you with the “same” crate, you always get better and better gear from them.
You gotta start maximizing your coils, yo. I was one shotting bad guys left and right with a couple high level impact damage coils on otherwise mediocre sharpshot bows.
yeah it's not that the game is hard it's more than most of the rewards and unrewarding and I end up buying most of my best gear instead of being quest gifted it.
The equipment was legit the reason I quit playing. That and the difficulty. I was able to 100% the first game and the DLC on the hardest difficulty. I had to take the second game down to easy mode in the bulwark melee pit. That was the first time I ever came close to breaking a controller. I genuinely don’t believe that the developers actually playtested the game.
I played onimusha 1 2 and 3. Every weapon was special. In onimusha 4, I kept getting inferior weapons, and having to grind out once every few levels to get good ones again. I think this problem stated between those two games.
