Forced PvP is a deal breaker for me.

[Cosmo 🐲]

I was so hyped about this game..
But forced pvp is a deal breaker for me.

Imagine you're deep into a video game, fully immersed in its captivating world, completing quests, and enjoying the storyline. Suddenly, BAM! Out of nowhere, another player comes crashing into your virtual world, itching for a fight. It's frustrating, right? You weren't signing up for a PvP showdown. This frustration can quickly ruin your gaming experience, making you question whether you even want to continue.

Now, let's talk balance. Game developers grapple with this dilemma constantly. How do they create a game where everyone has a fair shot? Some players go all out, leveling up like there's no tomorrow, or grinding for the shiniest gear. And guess what? They end up with a hefty advantage over casual gamers or newcomers. It's not cool. This imbalance can seriously discourage folks who just want a bit of fun without the intense competition.

Forced PvP often leads to toxic behavior. When the main objective is to crush other players, you'll inevitably run into those who thrive on trash-talking, harassment, or even cheating just to snag a win. It's like the Wild West out there, but in a digital realm. This kind of stuff drives away the chill gamers and turns the gaming community into a hostile battleground.

Speaking from personal experience, I remember Playing SoT. While I enjoyed the thrill now and then, there were moments when I simply wanted to explore the game's vast world and its storyline. But nope, PvP interruptions were relentless. It got frustrating real fast and took away some of the game's charm. Plus, it led to some not-so-friendly encounters with overly aggressive players, making me wonder if I should stick around, and its really not fun as a solo player to get jumped by a group of 2-4 players all the time, and i ended up realizing that SoT was a waste of money for me.

Of course PvP can be a blast, no doubt about it, but when it's forced upon you, it can be really depressive. Frustration, imbalance, and toxic vibes can really ruin the gaming experience. Game developers should think twice about how they implement PvP and ensure it accommodates all kinds of players, so everyone can enjoy the virtual adventures without unnecessary headaches.

Please please please... give us the option to turn off pvp. Or let us join a PvE server.

forced pvp makes PERFECT sense on the planet DUNE

Did you read what i wrote at all, or just the headline?

Anyway why do you care if there is a PvE server?

No matter if they make one or not, you wont meet me in PvP.

1. if they make one, that is where i will play.
2. if not, im not going to get the game.

So it wont affect your gameplay at all (assuming from the comment that you are a PvPer)

If this is true that would be extraordinarily depressing.

If you do get the game at some point, I'll be looking for you and force some pvp on your crying baby ass.

[UpTownG-_-]

[Ext.]

yep. MMOs I mean....

forced pvp might actually work very wel for the emersion you seek.
I have played mortal online 2 for 2k hours, so should know XD

It gives players a reason to interact, to band together and to fight. It creates the most human like interactions you can get. Some will be toxic bandits others shinning knights comming to your aide, others like to run a smooth talk to get you to follow their lead while some drive a hard bargain for that item you want.

That creates the most realistic world you can make in a game

The can and should make zones for crafters and chilling vibes to relex tho. Where you can get the bulk stuff for crafting in protective range. Yet when you enter the dunes its high risk higher rewards waiting to be found.

I am not going to play forced pvp after my SoT experience.

Spending hours on getting loot just to be jumped by 3-4 people that takes all your loot and kill you over and over just for the fun.

[Stinboi]

forced pvp is rarely a success, it works for games like rust with server restart, but those who can play all day long will take over, hard for new players to get into and for causal gamers to enjoy.

Its a reason why most MMO dont have this feature, they loosing the biggest part of their playerbase.

its a shame becouse it sounds like a good game, but as a causal players it will be impossible for me to be able to play this.

But hopefully we get rid of some of the full loot whiners on other forum, or wait maybe not becouse many of them dont stay with full loot games either

can't think of a mmo that have managed to make it big on PvP. EvE Online, Albion have all niche audience but they are not big.

Short answer, this game isn't for you.
How about you tell us why every game has to be PvE only?!

All the veiled threats to the game Devs are not helping your case.
I've seen the same threats on other game forums offering PvP.

"They'll never make any money, PvP games are niche, no MMO ever managed to make it big in PvP".... blah blah blah

Whine all you want, but the demand is there and game Devs know it. They're not going to pass up an opportunity to break new ground because of a few militant PvE types.

Perhaps you should read the post? - i already answered your questions.

I read it, and you were crystal clear.

"Please please please... give us the option to turn off pvp. Or let us join a PvE server."

Reading that it's obvious this isn't your kind of game.
Find another instead of complaining, because many of us like the design.

Buddy no offense but it is quiet the opposite. Nowadays every freaking game is either completely pvp or a PvPvE hybrid where you can't avoid PvP.

So having multiplayer PvE games is slowly turning into a breath of fresh air.
