I think it’s over specialization. I loved that in D1 that any character could use anything. By D4 every dropped item was character specific which meant no finding cool items of a different class to build the next character around. Also just the finding items. It seemed like every item I found or listed at the shop was just another 1 to 3 points in the character I was playing primary attribute, another point or two specific to that character and a few random filler bonuses. Just boring. Maybe it got better in the later game but as far as I got in the open betas and free weekends convinced me not to buy it…

It will run, the frame rate will just be a bit low as you have to manually plot each frame from the output, say a frame every hour or two…

Costco is a huge market so it has many suppliers. I bought a bag a month ago that matched this post: a noticeable amount of empty shells. The next bags were fine. Probably just a wave of product from one supplier.
- Comment on Behold, "the whole story of Steam's economy in one picture": the top 1% of games earn 84.5% of estimated revenue, and most games barely make anything 1 month ago:
A lot of games on Steam hold zero interest to me. AI is just the newest form of slop. Beyond that what I see is a hell of a lot more games are being released in the last 4 years. That means more competition but also many have not been around long enough to build up over time revenue. To a certain extent you are comparing life time revenue to launch revenue. On AAA that probably doesn’t matter as much but on the lesser hyped indy games I think it would be an important distinction.

It’s probably be viewed as heresy, but GTA Vice City is by far my least favorite. Miami is just a flat boring city to drive in. You know it’s bad when the high points are bridges and parking garages. Vice City’s only redeeming feature was the flying car cheat. Got a few hours of enjoyment with police chases with that on…
And yes, I’m mildly concerned about VI…
