Quoted from CaptainNeo:but they arn't set up for shoot this 3 times..and shoot that 3 times, to do everything the game has to offer. Only the bland games do that. When you have modes and different phases, to mix things up, that's what's fun. Different objectives that chance depending on where your at. Plus a unique playfield. Not a standard fan pattern game. it's fine to have one game like that, but who the hell wants 7 or 8 games designed the same with 12% different variation in rules from the other ones.
Yeah...no. You are over-simplifying the rulesets of MB. In fact, the only thing which is "Shoot this 3 times and that 3 times" is the ramps for Bride. Mummy is jet hits with rollover multipliers, Drac is spelling with targets, Wolfman and Creech are 4 shots each to start but Creech is many more shots to complete, etc. Most importantly, the modes aren't designed to work alone, they are designed to STACK. It's clear Lyman had that in mind when tweaking the rules. So if you are playing like this "Oh, I just shoot that 3 times and then I shoot it again 3 times" you are dumbing the game down yourself and it's no wonder it bores you.
In MB, the beauty of the game is stacking the monsters all together so they are running at the same time. A simple-sounding goal, but it's far from easy...in fact, it's incredibly difficult. There's an order to how you have to hit the shots, extend timers, and stay away from certain shots, in order to accomplish that goal. Probably the most difficult stack in modern pinball, FAR more difficult than stacking all the madnesses together in MM, which isn't easy itself and is very lucrative. (Side note: Lyman absolutely dropped the ball on one rule/scoring feature= Rock Before Bash. It's mildly difficult to acheive RBB and yet since a regular Bash multi will score you more than 50M on average, RBB is a reward which is basically a penalty. It should award 100M and it would make sense).
After realizing that you don't understand the MB rules, it's not surprising that all those rulesets meld together for you. They are all quite different if you dig into them. It's like people who play MM and go "Oh you just sit there and shoot the castle...so boring!" And you want to laugh in their face: "Yeah it's boring because you are playing 1/10 of the game."
Learn the rules, challenge yourself, and all rulesets will cease to seem so similar for you.
