- Comment on Steam: Updates to User Review Scores Based on Language 3 weeks ago:
Letterboxd and Goodreads both use a star rating system in addition to long-form reviews and it seems to work out great. I have my disagreements with how the sites are run, but the rating system isn't one of them.
YouTube star ratings never included the opportunity to review (in text) a specific video, so I think your comparison isn't very applicable or helpful in this specific situation. The Steam review system isn't very analogous to how YouTube used to work.

Seconding this. I got a used Wii and hacked it to play pirated games from an SD card, including Just Dance. Literally every commercially sold Wii can be hacked now, it's super easy. No money given to Nintendo.
Also, the Just Dance modding scene is still pretty active and there are Wii ports for newer songs/games.

Can you articulate your problem or are you just going to down vote?

Childhood? You don't understand everything's fucked yet, and you have no responsibilities other than light chores and homework.
- Comment on More action than RPG, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 struggles to convince after a few hours' play - EuroGamer 3 weeks ago:
I guess they're hoping no one buying 2 has played the original or has much familiarity with the source material. Not the worst move from a marketing standpoint, but not really inspiring confidence for me since VtMB is probably one of my favourite linear/sandbox RPGs purely because of the atmosphere and dialog.
No, the combat in VtMB wasn't very good, but that doesn't mean the sequel has to be an ARPG. I really hope this is just one person's opinion and it's not that bad. Also, Phyre is a cringe name that hasn't grown on me at all, so that sucks considering she apparently fucking says it constantly.
