Devs are heavily depending on the crutch of upscaling and framegen for new games.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 2 weeks ago:
Guild Wars 2
- Comment on What games have you sunk the most time into? 4 weeks ago:
Almost 5k hours of FFXIV, nothing else I can check even comes close (LoL from my teenage years might win, but who knows).
- Comment on Would "suggest price" be a positive option for steam? 4 weeks ago:
Have a look at steam reviews then ponder how people would use it
- Comment on I walked all over the damn store looking for butter 4 weeks ago:
TIL people actually look at what the aisle sign
- Comment on Anon has marital problems 4 weeks ago:
Object oriented posting
- Comment on Anon hates smartphones 4 weeks ago:
There’s no way you are having a good time with digital dating, there just isn’t.
- Comment on About to turn the car to a flying car 4 weeks ago:
There are two types of friends, this is the second type.
- Comment on Pretty interesting when you really think about it. 4 weeks ago:
It’s crazy to think that the level of border control we have today would be unfathomable to someone even 100 years ago. If we go a bit earlier, how could you even ID someone without photographs?
- Comment on Relevant advertising 🤪 5 weeks ago:
He’s not richer than the other guy so he’d be in jail either way
- Comment on Is it time to start a campaign against kernel-level anticheat? 5 weeks ago:
Guess I’m OOL. What non-competitive games have kernel anti-cheat?
- Comment on Elden Ring Nightreign – Reveal Gameplay Trailer 5 weeks ago:
Pretty cool iteration, hopefully.
- Comment on Imperialism, authoritarianism and oppression is bad all around m'kay 5 weeks ago:
The crimes of the US empire dwarf anything you bring up on any “authoritarian” countries that are curiously always enemies of the US. No complaints on Myanmar here no sir!
- Comment on Charities of Employees from "non-profit" I was going to donate too 1 month ago:
Charities are good business. That’s why there are a lot of them.
- Comment on What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games? 1 month ago:
Cultiat Simulator is moat fun when you really know nothing about the game and you stumble into things.
- Comment on Why are $70 AAA games slashing prices so drastically? 1 month ago:
Poorly received games with tons of other venues of monetization outside the box price.
- Comment on Palworld announces Terraria crossover 1 month ago:
Summoner class going to eat good. Guess I’ll do another playthrough of terraria.
- Comment on Would Kamala Harris have won the 2024 election if Latinos didn't shift hard to the right? 1 month ago:
Your explanation ignores the root cause of the issue. People stayed home because the Democrats and Kamala failed to motivate them to go.
- Comment on How are Americans supposed to survive the next 30 years? 1 month ago:
You’ll realise just how little people will make do with. And how much lower what you considered a terrible standard of living can be.
- Comment on This world is cruel… 1 month ago:
I really want to understand what’s the big deal about foreign languages. If both speak the same second language, then maybe having a few conversations in it might be fun, but if you don’t what is exciting about someone that can say things you don’t understand?
- Comment on This world is cruel… 1 month ago:
Anyone who has been around actual gym rats knows that it’s never the opposite sex they are chatting, comparing and posing with.
- Comment on I don't think it's possible for me to complete this Steam achievement 2 months ago:
No one is forced to do achievements to enjoy a game. I understand achievement hunting, but since they can easily be cheated (on steam at least) it really is only a personal goal. If you are not enjoying one just forget about it.
- Comment on Ads 2 months ago:
Most creators have patreons. The big ones take sponsorships also. The pittance they get from any ads I may have watched do not matter.
- Comment on Why do Counterstrike and the other top 10 games on Steam NEVER change? 3 months ago:
Yes, not only many people still play the same games for 10 years, but also spend most of their gaming time in them. There’s a reason why a new live service game is both a gold mine and also incredibly difficult to stick.
- Comment on I make games and this literally happened to me this morning 3 months ago:
For every streamer that makes minimum wage there are dozens that make so little they don’t even get paid.
- Comment on Gacha games are out of control. Gambling shouldn't be so widespread 4 months ago:
Seems about right. CSGO skin gambling was all the rage 10 years ago.
- Comment on These mini expacs really aren't doing it 4 months ago:
It really is a shame. If Arenanet was a bigger studio they could probably have two teams working on expansions at the same time so that we could get a new one every year while still allowing for two years of development.
The loss of new elite specs is by far my biggest disappointment, the lackluster metas and hit-or-miss instanced content also lowers the overall value proposition to me, personally.
- Comment on It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation 4 months ago:
Valve doesn’t want to make a buy to play game unless it’s something that pushes the medium forward somehow, which is the only reason Alyx was made. A PvP moba can be a source of continued revenue like all the other games they still support (and one they don’t).
- Comment on Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games 4 months ago:
Do we even know anything about the game other than the fact it’s getting made?
- Comment on The opposite of shopaholic: shopcell 4 months ago:
The code may be old but it isn’t necessarily slow.
