Is LEGO Minifigures Online an insult to gaming?

Click. Click. Click. Hoooooollld. Click.

That's what I did the first time I tried this. What a *unique* experience. It's *totally* going to revolutionise the gaming industry.

Seriously though, why is this game so damn boring? The only interesting thing is the art, and we can all agree it doesn't stack up to LEGO Universe.

The game is very lacking in the state its in right now.
It seems like more of a late alpha/very early beta game than a Late beta.

Theres only a few problems I have with it:
-levels feel kind of empty, especially the pocket dungeons
-controls are very basic and is literally just a point and click adventure
-The whole putting bricks on a plate system is a interesting system for changing around how your character's stats are, but very lacking in what it does
-Can't choose your own name, have to choose a crappy name of one word
-Meeting up with friends is very VERY hard to do in the game
-characters are all  pretty much the same
-lots of obvious bugs (bricks floating in the sky, players able to have the model of one character, but have the attacks of another)

other than that its an alright game.
its just very lacking.

forget the devs for this garbage heap. 0 boundaries broken, 0 paradigms shifted. i hope they get blacklisted by the entire games industry.

A lot of things these days are an insult to gaming.

Hold the forgetin' phone

The name Greenface wouldn't mean anything to you, would it?

[Flatflyer]

this would be amazing

People were trying to crack into some kind of "private server" for LU a year ago but I think that's since been abandoned.

Hmm.

Well, I tried the game, and while you guys are right, it's point, click, click, etc, I sill kinda enjoy it. I've only really played around 10-15 minutes so far, so my opinion could change though.

[Flatflyer]

the difficulty in the game is alright, especially for a lego kids game.

I haven't died yet but I've gotten to pretty low health at times (though one time was mainly cause I got stuck in a corner while fighting a boss)
