It's very quiet. I do play it though.

I play in like 15~20 min bursts or while listening to podcasts or music, v. zen. I finally made a windfall/stagger Hybrid deck I don't totally hate. Its a little slow, but has a decent damage. Still have a bunch more stagger moves to learn

e: I should add I think I'm still garbage at this game. I really wish I was better because the game looks so cool when you get into a flow and just own people, the smooth movements and flow are great

I still enjoy it, but I'm mostly just waiting for a ranked mode before I really dive back into it.

Given how dead this thread is, how much of a discount on the game would you consider a “good buy”?

May as well get it for the 50% off that it is now :v:

3v3 is in, I haven't checked it out yet though.

the aesthetic and cool animations and stuff, and how satisfying it is to pound on people is worth bootin up absolver for a little 10~15 minute spat every day or two, and I honestly think there could be an amazing, stellar, world class game underneath all this stuff if the Systems and such were done a little better - if it had like a little more single player stuff to entice and draw in people would help maybe too. (A bit more story might be cool too, but at the same time, the sort of bare bones setting is almost part of the aesthetic as well, so maybe don't flesh it out too much?)

Like I can see where Absolver 2 would be a GOTY, but I dunno if the Idea of Absolver will make it that far.

I just really really want to love this game and play more of it, but it makes it hard sometimes

Is it hurt by not having an active community, or are there still enough people that you don’t notice?

A dog begins eating a dusty old coil of rope but there's a nail in it.

I dig how often people bow and adhere to 1v1 fighting and resurrecting people after they kill each other.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?
yo this game is rad as gently caress

Short answer: Yes.

The developers have no idea how to balance the core game and are waffling back and forth on changes they push, which is going to delay anything interesting like a new class of weapons. The easiest way to win is to run a Kahlt deck with a bunch of fast jabs to stuff out people who run kick decks (:rip: me) and that hasn't changed since day 1.

It's too bad, as the core concept of the game is so neat. Building your own kung fu style really appeals to me, but the balance issues are tough to overcome in this.

I still like to log in and punch some randos, mostly NPCs, and just tweak stuff, while I listen to music or podcasts or something. Feels good and really satisfying, just something pleasant about the animations.
