Early Access Feedback - please stop monsters from pushing me around like a ball in breach - Forum

The terrain blocks and unit collisions can be so annoying. I'm not a fan of unit collision on every single monster. The big boys, sure that makes more sense. But tiny ants, 5 waves of blood at once But you have rolling ants, sleeping delirium mobs, waves of blood all pushing you around as if you are a rag doll , feels so awkward.

i havnt felt motion sickness in a game in a long while, the camera detachment plus enemies pushing you around is actually really disorientating and making me feel dizzy af. would prefer to be able to always lock game, even for flicker strike, the camer snapping is more predictable and managble then the guess work a loose cam does. its simialr for boss fights, yea it looks more cinematics, but for me, i want my character dead center hard locked under all conditions in an arpg, its literally a matter of not feeling like im gonna vomit	Posted by Xypha#3760 on Dec 28, 2024, 5:19:40 PM Quote this Post
I was legit surprised when I spec'd Titan on my warrior that not being able to be pushed wasn't built-in with 0 passives taken. It just makes sense. But the changes to roll and tiny monsters has made it more bearable for sure. But is going for "bearable" something you should be aiming for?

I recall seeing something about not allowing cinematic zoom but maybe that’s just for boss encounters. Definitely turn off screen shake if you haven’t already.

But is going for "bearable" something you should be aiming for? i don't think it should be a titan-only thing anyway. it should be somekind of buff say a "support for spirit gems" for example where "attacking with melee damage grants resistance / immunity to being pushed back" kinda thing. or it can be a notable that scales it with strength because that would be more accurate as a concept, with enough strength monsters should not be pushing you around as if you were a weakling.

You can Stun/Knockback the monsters too. Do it it to them before they surround you and initiate the Pinball Phase! Alternatively, collect Thorns gear and embrace madness. Last edited by LeFlesh#9979 on Dec 28, 2024, 11:32:10 PM	Posted by LeFlesh#9979 on Dec 28, 2024, 11:29:08 PM Quote this Post
We need Phasing. Problem solved.	Posted by t0lkien#7048 on Dec 28, 2024, 11:38:53 PM Quote this Post
I also think that this is obnoxious when it happens. I also don't see how to avoid it besides killing the monsters faster. Unfortunately, it is very very difficult to gain more power. More quant in maps please	Posted by green_bloodshed#1928 on Dec 28, 2024, 11:53:44 PM Quote this Post
