I take my shitposts very seriously.
- Comment on PlayStation Cancels Online Shooting Title ‘Fairgames’ 1 day ago:
And Warframe.
Digital Extremes should be the industry’s example of how a live service game should be managed. It’s butthole-clenching to think that they were almost bought by Sony a few years ago.
- Comment on Anon is a victim 1 week ago:
You. Are. Late.
- Comment on Save Mass Effect 2 weeks ago:
In a vacuum, it was middling in all aspects and with some terrible technical and artistic issues, but it was okay. But it didn’t exist in a vacuum. It didn’t live up to the relative success of Inquisition, and was an unworthy successor of the Shepard trilogy.
- Comment on Resident Evil makers Capcom reveal data breach has affected over 11 million Capcom ID accounts, warn against potential phishing emails 2 weeks ago:
Damn, I wonder why people are becoming averse to online accounts…
- Comment on Anon tries being social 2 weeks ago:
Inevitably there would be some incels who claim that speaking to women like normal human beings is an attempt by the matrix to emasculate men.
- Comment on EA is shutting down BioWare and the next Mass Effect has been canceled 3 weeks ago:
A year ago? People called it eight years ago with the Anthem disaster that Dragon Age 4 would be the studio’s last chance. BioWare was already dead, this is just the merciful last bullet.
- Comment on Electronic Arts to Cut 400 Jobs, Shut Down BioWare 3 weeks ago:
Honestly, this is one where I can’t put all of the blame on EA. Bioware has been in a decline since My Face Is Tired, and a complete freefall since Anthem. Veilguard was their last chance and they blew it. The “Bioware magic” turned out to be a fart in the wind.

I used McDonald’s to make a cheeseburger in less than 30 minutes.
- Comment on Anon hates new slang 3 weeks ago:
It’ll completely fuck up your joints, though.
Source: am fat, lifelong cyclist, starting to get knee pains.
- Comment on Epic Games Launcher preview arrives - Native Linux support, Fortnite for Linux is coming and upgraded Easy Anti-Cheat 4 weeks ago:
I’ve got links. Do you have two and a half hours and enough alcohol to numb the pain?
About the person: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU8xmhI5WjA About his disgusting atrocity of a novel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoOnElCEliA
tl;dw: he’s an Australian sword youtuber much criticised by the historical European martial arts community, he’s an anti-woke nutjob with a fragile sense of masculinity, he’s an “AI activist” who thinks writing words into a text box makes him an artist, and he’s the envious brother of the actual, successful artist Jazza (who seems like a genuinely fine dude). He also wrote the novel Shadow of the Conqueror, which is a boring, badly written, preachy self-insert power fantasy, where he moralizes that rape and the resulting pregnancy is good actually because motherhood is wonderful (I’m not paraphrasing that much, and it’s still fucking disgusting to think about).
- Comment on Epic Games Launcher preview arrives - Native Linux support, Fortnite for Linux is coming and upgraded Easy Anti-Cheat 4 weeks ago:
Tim has been on the sauce for a while. He basically does the opposite of everything Valve does. Valve banned blockchain-based games, Epic opened the platform to scams with asset flip “games” attached. Valve regulated AI and required disclosure, Epic is now a safe haven for shovelware and Tim is screaming into the void that publishers should be allowed to hide AI usage.
Sweeney is like the Shadiversity of gaming. Massively overcompensating for his inferiority complex and forever doomed to live in the shadow of his more successful brother.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
I already had zero interest or compulsion to buy anything Microsoft… but this is so violently repulsive, at this point, I feel like they owe me money.
- Comment on The Anonborn gets recruited 4 weeks ago:
Does it really surprise anyone that a story by Emil Pagliarulo has poorly written factions?
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
It will run surprisingly well.
Like Cyberpunk 2077 on the PS4.
- Comment on Anon wants sources 4 weeks ago:
SCIENTIST FOUND EVIDENCE THAT THE MULTIVERSE IS REAL
New experimental observations regarding macroscopic quantum mechanical systems are found to be consistent with the many-worlds interpretation.
- Comment on Anon wants sources 4 weeks ago:
When the word “tantalizing” is uses, you know you’re in for some absolute hogwash.
- Comment on Anon hates C++ 5 weeks ago:
It’s easy to build a well-designed language when you don’t have to work around the mistakes of the past that were too difficult to solve then and too deeply entrenched to change now.
- Comment on Capcom aims to enhance its propriety RE Engine with AI to accelerate efficiency in QA, debugging, and data processing 5 weeks ago:
Can’t wait for the game engine to delete my filesystem and then be really very sorry about it.
- Comment on Mojang reveals The Sift as the first new Minecraft dimension in 14 years 1 month ago:
I don’t see how Steam would make any difference.
- Implementing any kind of DRM is the game developer’s prerogative.
- Allowing other versions is possible, again, at the developer’s convenience.
- No other launcher needed besides Steam (and Steam is very far from being only a launcher)
- Steam Workshop (because fuck Forge)
- Comment on Mojang reveals The Sift as the first new Minecraft dimension in 14 years 1 month ago:
Ah yes, the famous DRM.
Some launchers allow you to play fully offline, but only after you’ve authenticated and started the game at least once with a real Microsoft account. The launcher has a sophisticated validation mechanism to ensure this: it is stored in a boolean value in a JSON file.
- Comment on Anon reflects on a mistake 1 month ago:
She even recognised some of them.
- Comment on Mercenaries Recompiled - Teaser | Launching 9/26 | PC and Linux (Proton) Native Compatibility 1 month ago:
Those two are mutually exclusive. An application that uses Proton can’t be natively Linux-compatible, and an application that is natively Linux-compatible can’t run using Proton.
natively on a Windows PC or on Linux via Proton
Sounds like it’s a Windows build, but the developers also provide first party support for running it on Proton.
- Comment on Mercenaries Recompiled - Teaser | Launching 9/26 | PC and Linux (Proton) Native Compatibility 1 month ago:
Linux (Proton) Native Compatibility
I had to sit down and drink a glass of anhydrous water after reading that…
- Comment on Anon fears The Hand 1 month ago:
It would be the single most active gambling economy.
- Comment on 1 month ago:
Did it hurt to carve out the fevered flesh? Did it hurt to sever the gangrenous foot?
- Comment on DSP clears Wolverine's motorcycle section without player input 1 month ago:
Sure, but you paid $70 for it. In the business, people like that are called “suckers”.
- Comment on Hideo Kojima's PHYSINT Game Moves to Xbox From PlayStation 1 month ago:
They’ve always been violently litigious against any kind of preservation effort. Apparently this goes back to the Super Famicom/SNES generation.
- Comment on Anon likes Space Jam 1 month ago:
There’s no way in hell a Galaxy-class starship has enough delta-v in its cargo bays to meaningfully affect its trajectory, not to mention that the thrust vector wouldn’t be aligned with the ship’s center of mass. All that would achieve is the starship going out with a fucking

(the Kirby in question is a Stålenhag-esque war machine engaged in a fight against ownership and preservation, Nintendo doesn’t get a free pass for having a highly marketable mascot)
