I found out about Warframe after playing DarkSector and hearing that the two were related. The reviews seem generally positive with the exception of one massive negative spike.

Is there much in the way of grinding and micro transactions?

    I probably didnt play it right because for some reason, people LOVE Warframe.

    I tried it for an hour and found it really boring.

    Spent most the hour learning how to run in the game. Then it threw me in a mission with two other actual players, and I couldn’t remember how to do half the actions. So as I was quitting, the other players were yelling at me not to.

    I was recommended it after being bored with Destiny 2, and felt I came in with the wrong misconceptions.

      i mean… it’s a big game. an hour is definitely not enough time to get the feel of a game like that.

      hell I’ve never played it and have no strong feelings for or against it, but saying you quit after an hour is not much more than saying you never tried it at all.

      like maybe it would be enough time to figure out it wasn’t for you if you don’t like shooters or complicated games in general, but to say it like you did. like you can’t understand how anyone could enjoy it is a bit… it makes you come of badly.

        I kinda agree and disagree.

        I agree that some games do deserve time. Rockstar games have extremely long tutorials.

        But for a free to play game? An hour is plenty of time to know if you like the shooting and movement.

        There’s too many good games out there.
