- Comment on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Team Disbanded After Critically Lauded Platformer Fails to Meet Expectations - Report 4 weeks 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 5 weeks 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 3 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 3 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? 3 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 5 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 5 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? 5 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? 5 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 6 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 7 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 7 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 10 months ago:
They sold it after achieving success.
- Comment on China announced new laws to limit microtransactions, affecting major corporations like Tencent. 10 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.
