Re: To clarify
Posted By: Cody Miller	Date: 4/16/12 2:13 p.m.
In Response To: Re: To clarify (Louis Wu) : Whoa, seriously? After all these posts telling me about how people should be : able to play the game whatever way they want to, have fun the way THEY : want to have fun, NOW you're gonna start telling me that there's a : specific challenge to single player that's the RIGHT way to play? : It is SO hard to read your "I know everything" tone when you are so : CLEARLY wrong sometimes. That's the challenge the developers set up. If you don't want to take that on, you can play individual levels, trick, explore etc. There IS no right way to play. You don't HAVE to undertake the challenges the developers set up for you if you don't want to. I see no contradiction. : I want to play the Maw. My friend told me what an amazing level it is. WTF - : I have to play this Library shit to get there? Fuck that - it should be : unlocked from the start. Locked levels are bad. That's not a bad idea really, in the form of a practice mode if your game is divided into levels. But it has to be a separate mode: campaign where you progress, and practice or quick play or whatever where you can just choose one. : The fact that you can't admit that this is IDENTICAL to the unlockable : situation flabbergasts me. It's almost as if you'd be okay if Challenge : Levels were simply tacked on to the end of a single player campaign - : because then, getting to them was part of the ACCEPTABLE progress of the : game, rather than the UNACCEPTABLE "do this to earn that". And : yet, the only difference to the player would be WHEN they could get to : them! In fact - if they were tacked on to the end of the campaign, you'd : take even LONGER to get to them, because you can only progress linearly! It's not the same, since challenge levels are quite clearly a different mode of play. : SO LET ME PLAY THE MAW THE FIRST TIME I PUT THE DISC IN, DAMMIT. THAT'S WHAT : I WANT. Not in campaign mode, but I would support this if in a practice / quick play mode for sure.
