He's right.
All that weeb ass MMO number grinding is lame as fuck

Out of all the aRPGs I've played, Morrowind is the only one that doesn't do that.
Which I mean, ONE exception isn't the end of the world.

What about Witcher? Even Witcher 2 does it to a degree

>>381759861
That's called an action game, beat-em-up, adventure game, or hack'n'slash

Very bizarre usage of greentext. New here?

>In an action rpg I don't care about dicerolls and stats
This is retarded, because without stats it wouldn't be an RPG. dicerolls/RNG is debatable.
>If I hit an enemy I want them to die, not see a bunch of numbers and calculations
Damage numbers are completely unnecessary in most games so I'm inclined to agree.
>It really breaks the immersion and takes you out of the game
Not really.
>>
>>381760072
You know that whether you hit or not and how much damage you do is determined by stats and invisible dice rolls in Morrowind, right?
>>
>>381759861
Borderlands and destiny is the most guilty of this.
fuck HP numbers flying fucking everywhere. Disgusting.

>>381759861
and people will take this retard's opinion as gospel because it is in a youtube video...

It really doesn't. Immersion isn't about emulating reality, but about building a believable game world, which is founded upon a game system. If numbers and stats are well integrated into both that system and the world in which the sytsem is embedded, then they won't ruin the experience. In fact, they'll hardly be noticable.

The purpose of a greentext is literally to quote someone anon. Are you sure you're not new here?
>>
>>381760627This isn't just an anon with a shitty opinion?
>>
>>381760528
>Not really.
If I hit something with a sword and it lives, then it's unrealistic. Immersion is more important.
>>
>>381760832
no...still no, dummy.

He ended up quoting someone, Anon.

Where the hell did he speak such garbage?

This is the most vague, uninformative and throwaway critique I ever see lobbed around and you should feel like shit if you ever say it.

Well a lot of aRPGs have "under the hood" calculations - Mass Effect 1, for example, with accuracy, but generally if you hit something you hit something.
>>381760579
Yes, it's the one aRPG I've played that does that. At all. Even going back to the original Ys or Ultima Underworld, none of that.
But again, not a big deal. It's one game.

This guy's content is just Echo Chamber the Video
like after his "return of the Earthbounders" video he lost all validity his statements had.

You don't see damage dealt to the enemy because you never get to hit them.
