Variant dungeons are actually boring

[Shurrikhan]

But you're not a troll so we can take your opinion with a bit more seriousness. Its hard to decern whats legit and whats not with this user and their alts. Im not saying there isn't issues but it comes across as disingenuous from this user is all.

Is it just me or is it actually... pretty darn easy to tell when a Gaius-of-a-thousand-faces post is purely trolling or not?

He doesn't exactly hide his shifts in tone/attitude, and what few true bait/trap threads he(? honestly, those ones were harder to tell) started were pretty clearly so.

Or, more simply put, you can go into damn near any of these Skiros/Gaius/etc. threads that'd seem remotely serious and, sure enough, simply read the topic as/for what it is, rather than as some elaborate scheme to twist player opinion. If it's written sarcastically or with the sole intent to inflame, the OP will make that obvious very quickly.

Sure he may have some trollish topics but I don’t see anything wrong with discussing this feature. He finds them boring. At least he did them. I can’t even find a reason to spend time on these after the less than glowing reviews and reward lists I’ve seen.

But that would require engaging with critiques about CBU3's design decisions. There's a solid section of forumgoers who are absolutely convinced that any criticism is "trolling", which is much easier to dismiss. It's less work than taking the position of actively cheerleading the stupidification of the combat system, which is what they do when they're not accusing everyone of being a Gaius alt. :eyeroll:
