Ravaged. Great little Arena Shooter. A bit ahead of it’s time, I guess.

- Comment on No One Wants A $100 GTA 6, Analysts Say 5 days ago:
I think we can differentiate between fashion and video games.
I have no doubt GTA will sell well enough regardless of price and quality. But if it’s a $100 and the quality isn’t there, I doubt it will sell as well as they’d hope.
But we’ll see.
- Comment on What is the most overrated game gamers hype up? 6 days ago:
W3 is definitely a slow burn game, for better and worse. It might have been a bit overhyped, but for the most part I feel it deserved the praise it got.
I will also add that after completing it, I never really returned to it.
- Comment on What is the most overrated game gamers hype up? 6 days ago:
Above NES games? That’s pretty high praise.

I use Mint as well. Haven’t had any major problems using it for gaming.
Steam and Lutris pretty much has me covered.

- Comment on SILENT HILL f gets a DRM-free release on GOG 2 weeks ago:
It’s a bit weird. Not bad, just weird. In the beginning I thought it captured the feel some of the original games pretty well, but then it goes completely off it’s hinges and catapults itself in some gory anime-esque direction. I didn’t get that part.
It’s also a bit heavy-handed with the “fighting your inner demons” and “your own worst enemy is you” shtick.
But it’s very well made. Both the stylistic choice and the combat (if a bit too much in focus). The story circles around marriage and friendships and gets a bit repetitive.
But that’s just my take.

Nah, we’re not even close to deciding anything. We just like to think we’re all that.
- Comment on Game Pass Price Hike Announced, Will Cost $30/Month For Ultimate 2 weeks ago:
It’s all in the habit. So yeah, if you only play every game once? Great value.
But for anyone that easily sinks a couple of hundred to a couple of thousand hours in to a game they like? Game Pass is a very bad deal.

Sure.

Yeah, principles. Some people have them.
- Comment on Confirmed - Electronic Arts (EA) sold off to investors including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund 3 weeks ago:
Nah, principles > entertainment.
As much as I loved C&C and Red Alert as a kid, it’s a bygone age thing. But I am surprised they actually made a remake. Didn’t see that coming.

If only it wasn’t EA
- Comment on Confirmed - Electronic Arts (EA) sold off to investors including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t hear about a C&C remake… Well, shit!
- Comment on Confirmed - Electronic Arts (EA) sold off to investors including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund 3 weeks ago:
Was EA even doing anything with any of the actually good IPs they had? I haven’t heard of anything particularly interesting coming from them in a while now (ie. decades).

See, I was told that too, but no one bothered to explain what that means. I still have no idea what that actually means. What is a powerhouse?

Then it’s just a question of the audience wanting it.
- Comment on Which handheld should I get? 5 weeks ago:
Just rumors and speculation, for sure.
But the Steamdeck was a good idea and I doubt they’ll leave it “one-and-done”.

No need for name calling, but to answer your question; yes I do.
- Comment on Which handheld should I get? 5 weeks ago:
Well, it seems at least one company has admitted that only focusing on making games high-end games might have been a bit self-defeating when there’s an even bigger market with slightly older tech they could have been selling to. So there’s a start.
I also remember reading somewhere that there’s just been a breakthrough in battery tech (It was probably mostly in regards to electric vehicles, but if it can be be applied to smaller devices, that’s also a good start).
Maybe there doesn’t have to be a sacrifice in battery life on the next-gen Steamdeck. It’s small stuff like this that would make me think that maybe the next gen isn’t too far in the future.
But again, what the hell do I know? I’m a PC guy. Fairly happy with my stationary setup.
