  If it’s dystopian and not utopic, they can keep it and hopefully lose money. Star Trek isn’t Star Wars.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many Nintendo Switches do I need for a family of gamers?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, also with physical games, it might be possible to save money, unless they all want to play the same game at the same time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cognitive Biases⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Availability Heuristic looks out of place. It’s pretty much the only bias I have (beside confirmation bias, which is hard to avoid as sneaky it is), but how should one survive in this world without relying on others? Without doing a scientific bias free study on every topic in life, you’re unavoidable suffering from that bias. A healthy level would be avoiding making it a rule. I regularly disagree with friends decisions, so maybe I don’t have this bias.

  The switch only had Super Mario Odyssey. I don’t count rehash with a short new bonus level. SMO was amazing, but where is SMO2?

  Zelda Totk is basically Botw and you just need the later to have the same map. Also both Zelda were no traditional Zelda’s, they were mostly sandbox games.

  Kirby was largely seen as too easy, one really has to be okay with that. I was hyped but didn’t expect it to be that easy. Left me kind of disappointed.

  Metroid Dread, I wish it hadn’t been a 2D platformer as there are so many of them. Most interchangeable. Looking forward M4 still.

  Megaman, I’m no fan of so I can’t say much about it.

  Splatoon is amazing and a big selling point. Same with smash, but you could just own one of the dozen different versions on a different system and would not notice.

  Pokémon has always been my selling point, but everyone knows the issue with those. I literally have more fun playing old DS Pokémon games, even though challenge never was their strong point.

  Nintendo Switch 2 is just Nintendo. While with a portable device you could play so many indie games on the go that either have expensive Switch ports or don’t exist for the Switch at all. Switch 2 is not going to change that. And yeah, I asked myself a lot if I have just outgrown Nintendo games, but truth is Nintendo changed a lot and so have their other publisher releasing for Nintendo systems. I’d not have as much fun with old games, who I have never played before otherwise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'It Has Plateaued': Should We Be Worried About Console Gaming's Future?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  PC is the only console I’m excited about. Switch 1 was already collecting dust and I’m still waiting for that Metroid game that was supposed to.be on the Switch. However portable devices are on the rise, like Steam Deck for instance. I’d currently rather get that than a Switch 2. we don’t even know what games S2 will have.

  I hope enough people will buy it in EA, so they can get the required money. But I’ll 100% wait til the game is complete for my first run.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should devs tell people about launch bugs in advance? “It’s an interesting problem” says Starfield and Skyrim designer⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, another one of those “players expect perfection”. No, they don’t, but buggy games like Cities Skylines 2 should’ve never been released. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 should’ve been delayed on consoles and not released on old consoles at all, to fix critical PC bugs first. I can understand the issue of infinite delay and finite money, but some games should’ve been delayed just a bit more to not release in a mess.

  Starfield however isn’t that buggy, it’s the typically Bethesda-Jank, but what is much worse is the boring game. Not bugs are the big issue. Starfield should’ve never been released or been much cheaper to cover some of the cost, but instead they hype it and sell ultimate editions not worth the price. It’s lying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Publishers face 20% game revenue reduction if Denuvo DRM is cracked quickly, according to new study⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, it’s a complicated read because of the math approximation, but it’s not a bad study per se. I noted my critiques in the original comment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Publishers face 20% game revenue reduction if Denuvo DRM is cracked quickly, according to new study⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish I could access this study. From the summary alone I couldn’t tell how one would compare Denuvo vs non Denuvo, when only large publisher use Denuvo, which are more likely to be mainstream and more known and therefore more in total pirated compared to an indie title. How would one measure that a DRM is preventing this revenue loss? We barely have two exactly similar games release at the same time. Gaming us fluctuating, game scores are and therefore the sold numbers, some are brand loyal while for others it counts less etc. How has anyone found a way to calculate that? Some publisher are much more likely to use Denuvo but are also more likely to be pirated because their game releases are much more likely to be buggy, boring or mtx infested.

  Some games, like Allen Wake, have been full out removed from sale because of expired music license. There has been other cases some come back later with the music stripped.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California’s new law forces digital stores to admit you’re just licensing content, not buying it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Next: make it so games can’t suddenly lose their music license. This is so incredible annoying. I know it’s depending on what the publishers negotiated, but it shouldn’t be possible to suddenly patch out soundtracks because of a license expire.
