Forced invasions...pass
A friend an I were really looking into a fun new coop game. And I kept my eyes on Lord of the Fallen.
Everything seemed to align nicely : "You can just invite your friends and play together". Holy hell, smart developers. No need for convoluted summons that gives you a chance to summon your friend, for a short amount of time. Nope, no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, you can just play together, awesome.
After all, that's a way me and my buddies use to keep in touch, since we live far apart now.

I kept on looking at the details though, you never know. Invasions, you can disable them. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, we have some really smart devs here. One can play without gankers to ruin your game, what a novel concept. Looking good, looking good, definitely gonna get this game.


But..hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right.

You can't disable invasion in coop? Oh, so they have at least one moron on the team. Sorry, no other way to put it. The one who kept that idea in is definitely not a genius.

Here. let me put it clearly. I want to play with my friends, without a stranger coming to gank us at the worst moment. Or even at the best moment. I'm. just. NOT. INTERESTED. Period. And I'm sure a lot of other players have the same feeling.

Forced invasions, no buyee, simple as that.

There's really no reason to have such an inconvenience force down the throat of ALL your playerbase.

Here, I'll make it simple for you : allow players who dont want to partake in forced pvp to opt out. And guess what? With such an option, every single player that does want to play pvp WILL BE ABLE TO DO SO. That wont affect them whatsoever. The only people it would bother are gankers. That's it.

I wish pvp players the best, and lots of fun. I really do, enjoy yourself, have fun. I, am just not into it, and wont buy a game that forces me to do it, specially when I dont want to.


And just in case, you can call be bad, say it is a skill issue, dont care. I want to chill with my buddies, that's it.

No matchmaking either. Seems you can invade beginners with an endgame character.

This is not an airport, you don't need to signal your departure.

Artistic integrity. Plain & simple, it's part of the vision the creators of this game had and they actualised it. They are quite proud of the systems they created & want players to have to grapple with them. That includes PvP.

You are only entitled to the product the Dev's wish to sell that's all. You aren't entitled to having the game altered to meet your preferences.

And for the record, it wouldn't really be an invasion if you could disable them.

By definition an invasion is done against the will of the invaded.
invasion: noun
Source: Cambridge Dictionary

an action or process that affects someone's life in an unpleasant and unwanted way.

the act of entering a place by force, often in large numbers
You are describing what accounts to a duel, a duel =/= an invasion.

Invaders are scaled down or up to the invaded.

Blahblahblahblah.

No ♥♥♥♥ Sherlock. I'm not entitled to anything, neither are they. That's fine, I'll play some else, they're just missing out on extra money with a stupid decision.

As to "artistic integrity". LOL.

Won't work. Then a majority of people will opt out and it will be a pointless feature just to farm with friends. Best feature is bloodbornes. Ringing lady spawns when you summon. And you have to go find and kill her to not get invaded.

So what you're saying is that the majority of the players actually dont like the invasions, and would rather play without them? Interesting...
