I'm trying to play the lastest Duviri Paradox in Warframe, but man this is such a boring slog. Imagine if you took the most horrible clunky combat from the Soulsborne games and combined it with the most infuriatingly random roguelike RNG, and then you added the most insane grind to it in order to make your character not instantly die from the weakest of enemies.
Needless to say, I do love Warframe, but by the gods I thoroughly hate the Duviri Paradox with a passion I usually just reserve for Soulsborne games.
Why do you play it if you don't like it?
I wanted to give it a fair shake in case there was something obvious I was missing, but no, having gotten into the gameplay loop I can confirm that this is just awful. I'm basically going to unlock a mount for open world and then pretend that area doesn't exist as the rest of Warframe is still pretty good.
That's funny, Warframe definitely has a grind to it, but I remember the combat being a joy with excellent flow. (I haven't played in like 8 years so take that with a grain of salt)
This is bad even by Warframe standards. Basically you can't choose a loadout as it's all RNG (you get like five choices) and you play mostly as your operator, except the combat is super clunky because they're trying to rip off Dark Souls. The rest of Warframe outside of this horrid content island is still damn good though, so there's that.
