- Comment on Yakuza 0 is being delisted on all platforms on December 8 (being replaced by Y0:DC), Yakuza Kiwami 1 & 2 also being delisted from Microsoft PC Store 15 hours ago:
I’ve gotten pretty much the entire Yakuza series through Humble Monthly. I’ve tried getting into it starting with Y0… Played a couple of hours… Then stopped…
I dunno… It just doesn’t really seem to grow on me.

Well what were you doing hiding in her closet? You weirdo! >:V
- Comment on Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production 1 day ago:
“Waaaahhhh! Waaaaahhhh! Why is Steam such a good service? That should be illegal! Tell them they should be worse!”
That’s all I’m hearing from these other corpos.
- Comment on What game is a guilty pleasure of yours? 3 days ago:
Kingdom Hearts. The writing is equally sappy and edgy fanfic crossover slop. But there’s something so satisfying about the combat, especially after the introduction of the command deck.
- Comment on We have just released a grand DLC, War Sails, for our game, Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord 3 days ago:
That’s pretty darn cool, actually.
- Comment on We have just released a grand DLC, War Sails, for our game, Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord 3 days ago:
To those that typically play space sims, I tend to describe your game as “X4, but medieval”.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 1 week ago:
Hollow Knight. It’s the only one I actually played to the end.
- Comment on apparently, the T button dosent exist for some people 1 week ago:
I see Belter Creole and raise you Klingonese.
- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 1 week ago:
Simple. I’ll just download it. Back in my day you used to be able to download RAM too.
- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 1 week ago:
I don’t understand the word “purchasing” in the context of “Sony product”. What do you mean with that?
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 1 week ago:
“Hello chat! Today’s challenge is to make the Steam Deck lose 20% of its performance. I can’t wait to get started!”
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 1 week ago:
Look at their website. It pretty explicitly states you can do with the Gabe Cube whatever you want. Including changing the OS.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 2 weeks ago:
I’ll probably use VR mostly to play sims. Elite Dangerous, X4, I also have a few racing sims.
But ultimately depends on the price. I’m not going to sell my organs for what is essentially a really cool immersive gimmick.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 2 weeks ago:
Depends on what kind of person you are. I know of individuals who practically live in VR.
- Comment on The heat... I mean the cold... well, it’s palpable! 2 weeks ago:
Kelvin and degrees Celsius are friends, though.
- Comment on I've heard New Yorkers are devastated 2 weeks ago:
Another American who doesn’t understand what communism is.
- Comment on 'I think we're in the fight of our lives': Fired Rockstar employees and IWGB are confident the GTA 6 developer will be held accountable for its alleged union busting 2 weeks ago:
Likewise. I also passed around the message between my union guys; “don’t you dare buy GTA 6”.
- Comment on Game marketing company takes down blog post bragging about how good it is at astroturfing Reddit after Reddit finds the post 2 weeks ago:
I don’t. I just recognise there’s a change and people didn’t like it. Nobody had issues with a woman being the main protagonist.
- Comment on Game marketing company takes down blog post bragging about how good it is at astroturfing Reddit after Reddit finds the post 2 weeks ago:
They changed her design to fit some arbitrary anti-beauty standard. I don’t find the change egregious, but it’s obvious why it was done.
- Comment on Game marketing company takes down blog post bragging about how good it is at astroturfing Reddit after Reddit finds the post 2 weeks ago:
Pretty sure Horizon Forbidden Dawn was well liked, despite having a woman speaking, but Horizon Forbidden West was hated on for changing the design of her.
- Comment on What's a recent game you've tried playing that isn't worth the hype? 2 weeks ago:
Mario Kart World.
Soundtrack is 11/10. But they dropped the ball hard on the entire open world aspect. Completely wasted the entire potential.
Instead we get lame ass intermission tracks that count as the first two laps of the next race, so you don’t even get to enjoy the new and remade tracks during championships, because you’ll blink and miss them.
- Comment on For those of you who enjoy open-world games, how big of a world is too big? 3 weeks ago:
There is no open world that is too big. They can only be too small.
However, the quality of an open world is not predicated on the size of the open world, but rather what is actually in it.
And this doesn’t mean that open worlds must be drowning in content, as the quality of the content itself also matters, and certain worlds that are large and empty can still be interesting due to its traversal being good, or the sandbox nature of a large empty world.
Some of the worst examples of open worlds are the kind that are just filled with isolated little fetch quests; busywork that’s all marked on the map with no element of organic exploration. Or the kinds of open worlds where nothing actually happens “organically” without the player starting it.
The best kinds of open worlds are the ones that emphasise exploration and/or have background systems governing the world in some way (i.e. factions that interact with each other without the explicit involvement of the player).

This.
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 4 weeks ago:
Excuse me, but birth control is not just a pill, it’s the entire process that includes putting on a condom. And it’s expected of guys to use condoms.
Besides that, there are pills and procedures a guy can do as birth control.
- Comment on We could have lived in a world where Hideo Kojima made a Matrix game, if only someone had told him he was offered to make one 4 weeks ago:
Any LEGO game can be good if it’s your first LEGO game. None of them are badly made, with the exception of a few, but they’re all made the same way.
If you’ve played one…
- Comment on We could have lived in a world where Hideo Kojima made a Matrix game, if only someone had told him he was offered to make one 4 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t put the LEGO games on that list. Traveller’s Tales just basically copy-pasted most games, to the point 3 were releasing within the same year.
It made them horribly bland.

*Most licensed games suck. There are some good ones.
- Comment on We could have lived in a world where Hideo Kojima made a Matrix game, if only someone had told him he was offered to make one 4 weeks ago:
I mean, Hideo Kojima tells stories that are a little convoluted and has layers of metaphor in them… Kinda like The Matrix, so he’d have been a perfect fit.
- Comment on Don't try to stop me 4 weeks ago:
Apples and oranges are often used as two things that cannot be compared, but there is so much that can be compared between the two. They’re both sweet tasting fruits toy can make juice from. They both have tang, at different levels and depending on which strain or what ripeness. The trees they grow on both have leaves, roots, bark…
- Comment on Just FYI 4 weeks ago:
Really? Because if I use “if I remember correctly” I mean I’m not 100% sure of I do and am completely open for someone else to come along and show me the correct answer.
There are a few times I mean it cynically.
