Is it just me or this game not "fun" anymore?

[Aspen]

Granted, I have almost 700 hours in it. At that point, anything'll get stale. But despite month long breaks, I still just don't see the appeal of SL anymore. Hell, maybe I'm just playing on the wrong servers, or maybe I've just played for too long.

I want to know whether or not this is the common consensus (both for people around my playtime and also people who recently started playing.) How do you all feel? Has SL lost a "charm" it once had for you?

[Xor fo xob]

yeah.
it used to be about running from some eldritch entities and a peanut.
now its just
kill everything.
save yourself.
be a ♥♥♥♥.

hello daniel

i feel like i get killed by luck or rng alone a bit too much, there's a few rounds where i stop caring about escaping and find a dude that roleplays along and have fun, and even rarer rounds where i clutch win and escape or whatever
i have to find people who play along cause i rarely spawn as scp, and that's why the game is becoming stale for me
have played scp: secret laboratory since december 2017 or january 2018, i remember the tutorials,been here a long time

Played SL for more than 1.5k hours, and every evening I feel like I can easily do another thousand. Maybe I am very (un)lucky, but SL is the only game that I didn't get bored of after continuously playing it for a long time, not counting a few singleplayer games that I re-play occasionally every few months.

So yeah, I am okay, hopefully you will find a way to return the "charm" or just find another game.

I disagree, I think this game is one of the only games that just does not get boring after a while, like TF2. The amount of people who make rounds interesting, the "retardation" that rounds contain just makes this game alot more fun. I have never talked ingame (not without a soundboard), but the community is interesting enough to bring me back

Perhaps that's where I went wrong. Never been really interested in the whole RP aspect of the game. Good to hear that at least some of the really old community members still enjoy it.

I once was able to form a cult. Basic stuff, nothing to brag about, but it was fun, and regrettably my second best moment in this game. As for the first, it was my cooperation with this other Class-D. We took on MTF after MTF, finding a lone Chaos who'd been holding off against armies already, and fought against a squad of around five. I killed the first two, my friend, in a Rambo-style charge, damaged the rest, killing one, and then after a flashbang, I went in and avenged him. Very fun round, very intense, but I haven't had much similar besides sometimes where I find myself going full "John Wick" as you might say, before promptly dying.

I want to get back into the game, but the RNG killing me over and over gets pretty annoying pretty fast.

It has lost most if not all of it's charm for me, yet it's still fun

Yeah the game got really boring for me when I reached 100 hours and I kept raging because I kept dying, but for some reason, I started to have fun again whether I win or lose. Idk, maybe I'm just insane, but I'd advise just taking a break because no one should have to play something they don't like.

[Puddleflop]

I've played SL for 2000+ hours

and I must say yeah it gets hella boring when Northwood doesn't do anything for like a year and a half or it might just be burnout of the game

SL is one of the few multiplayer SCP games besides SCP;ET and ET still needs a lot of time. At least SCP: Recontainment is being worked on and SCP: Labrat is gonna have multiplayer once they finish singleplayer

[MeGoodEnglish]

The game funs depends on the community. I kinda like the older community though. Now a lot of server have too many rules and admin, that mostly designed to only for serious play.

[Propital]

its mostly because no gun update

I think once the megapatch 3 updates, everyone will be hoping on it like a rampant dog digging up the ground, since AK-47s are being added everyone wants to be terrorists

Its likely not gonna be an AK47 tho, as the post stated it will probably either be an AK12 (modern AK) or an FB Beryl

I'm a bit more excited for the 44. Magnum, but everyone's a winner.
