You forgot to make the mona lisa crash in the last one, and need a 120gb day one patch to be “playable” (it’s not playable, it just doesn’t crash now), and also require a constant internet connection despite being single player. And needing to install some weird launcher that never works even though you bought the game on steam
Yeah :3
Because that meme is 10 years old at this point
This is a very old meme. The now in it was 2015, and the now now would be a rough sketch with a promise to finish it later.
No, no. The now now would be a barebones game with half features cut and bugs galore, a roadmap of dlc’s announced (with a couple or 10 season pass programmed) that will be scrapped a month after the launch because the game is not profitable enough.
Mmm, tixel pitties
This is why I don’t play AAAs anymore
Digital distribution of games was a mistake.
Walking on two legs was a mistake.
Still not convinced becoming multi-celled was that great
And it all died with fucking horse armor that didn’t even provide armor.
It’s interesting that valve never got any shit for it, it was all directed at Bethesda.
2015: Valve and Bethesda jointly introduced paid Skyrim mods through the Steam Workshop. Valve built and operated the marketplace system; Bethesda approved and participated in its implementation. The scheme was withdrawn after only a few days of massive community protest
Oh boy has this meme aged like some fine milk!

I photoshopped this some years ago for an image challenge about modernizing old games.
Picture of what appears to be the purchase area of a Steam page for a Pac-Man game. There are options for adding Pac-Man basics such as power pellets, floating cherries, side doors, and even dots to your purchase as expensive DLC bundles.
