• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What games have you put the most hours into?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  MMO wise, it has to be World of Warcraft. Played it nonstop when I was young.

  2nd place is Oxygen Not Included.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Team Disbanded After Critically Lauded Platformer Fails to Meet Expectations - Report⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Perhaps the reason is more simple. When did we have a non-indie platformer title well received by the mass? I don’t think people want a combo of “platformer” and “AAA” (hence the price).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Witcher 3 and Skyrim are pretty good. RDR2 is great, particularly because you can see it coming.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dragon Age: The Veilguard launches October 31⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Agree. Definitely a wait and see game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shadows of Doubt, the procgen private-eye immersive sim, is leaving early access next month⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It was already bad at the beginning. Never improved. Also, there seems to be no plan for a community driven mission system, so you can only play weird auto-gen ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you prefer RPGs or FPS games?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  RPG without only focusing on FPS. I quite don’t like ARPG these days that don’t have a good story but add a lot to combat mechanics.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dragon Age: The Veilguard | Sneak-peek at tomorrow's Gameplay Reveal trailer⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So we have action in this ARPG. I wonder if they are confident enough to show RPG bits before launch. Judging purely by the trailer, the game feels nothing like DA.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dragon Age: The Veilguard | Official Reveal Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for the explanation. Had the same feeling but couldn’t describe it. They definitely took the high fantasy route and even ‘cartoonize’ it further, which is kind of what DA is not about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to safely "give away" a Steam account to a stranger?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean you don’t have family, friends, colleagues, school mates or anyone you know personally who would benefit from this giveaway, so that you have to resort to a stranger? A nephew or niece is the perfect recipient for such a gift.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some eras of gaming that you've stopped feeling nostalgic for?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Same. It’s enough to team up with people at work so there’s no desire to do the same at home. I also don’t find grinding as much fun anymore. It used to be a fun way to spend time as a kid because we had too much time. Now, I don’t even pick a game which doesn’t have basic QoL features implemented.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My understanding is that Digital Foundry type of performance review is fine, but comments on how the control feels laggy or the game is a lower-tier copycat of Overwatch are not okay.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, that’s what I meant. I didn’t define the new generation, but in my mind people since the 80s are the new generation to me (I’m old). And you’re right, camping a store to buy something you never saw is of course the issue. And in my country, people buy a house before it’s even built, and that’s also an issue that is common in this ‘new generation’. So, this new generation tends to accept that buying something without seeing it is alright, and the gaming industry reflects that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To be precise, the new generation is to blame, who constantly preorders a game, and spends a lot on mobile games. Companies realize that bad products sell, so why would they improve?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prison Architect 2 - Official Announcement Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They sold it after achieving success.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China announced new laws to limit microtransactions, affecting major corporations like Tencent.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not recently, but yes.

  Also, there’s regulation to disclose the probability in getting rewards from opening “chests”, which is actually gambling in nature.
