Fuck, I was hoping they’re working on their own engine still.

More power to them, I’ll stick to my hobby of schadenfreude while AAA burns.
- Comment on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle - Review Thread 2 weeks ago:
That’s the first thing that came to mind when I saw the scores, I’m not reading reviews of Bethesda’s games other than players’ reviews on Steam.
- Comment on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle - Review Thread 2 weeks ago:
I thought it was going to be mediocre at best.
I fully expect it to be a mediocre shooter with some good environmental puzzles and nice graphics, Starfield had 85+/100 reviews before coming out. We’ll find out once it actually releases, in two years with all of the hypothetical DLC included for 15€. Bethesda can fuck right off with their 50€ offerings.

- Comment on Bloomberg: Sony Interactive Entertainment working on portable PS5 3 weeks ago:
They also don’t have enough games for their last generation to justify a new console, it’s a lot of work populating a library and their ex-exclusives are now playable on Deck. Which, even if it didn’t have thousands of games out of the gate, would actually be a cool mobile PC with guaranteed Linux drivers.

I know and don’t mind the jokes, you folks are doing a good job on lemmy.world communities that I follow. I started “teachers” and “education” subreddits a lifetime ago with a free-speech-absolutist mindset and quickly realized that they become a cesspool without someone grinding through reports 24/7.

Its problem is not that it’s woke, but that it’s shit.
- Comment on Why doesn't Lemmy have a system like Reddit's Karma? 1 month ago:
Because it’s shit made to drive engagement, not worth anything. Unlike reddit which views you as assets to make it money and incentivises use, lemmy owners pay for the bandwidth, don’t get anything from out shitposts and if anything it would be in their interest to disincentivise use.
- Comment on Dragon Age: The Veilguard Reviews Are In — Is BioWare’s Back in a Big Way? 1 month ago:
Never seen mortismal and I’ve only seen SkillUp a few times. I don’t really follow or need any review at release time, I’m not touching any game that’s 50€ or more until two years have passed and it’s in the vicinity of 75% off.
- Comment on Dragon Age: The Veilguard Reviews Are In — Is BioWare’s Back in a Big Way? 1 month ago:
Can someone give me a rundown on why there‘s so much negativity revolving around this?
First five minutes of SkillUp’s review is a good rundown. It seems like a mindless action clickathon with imitation of gameplay seen in better games, a safe sterile story and a large chunk of world design repurposed leftovers from someone’s abandoned Overwatch-but-DA ambitions.

Fuck you, Ubi. Apart from all your shitty practices, it’s a 16-hour long game that’s 40€ with a 50€ complete edition and cosmetics bullshit. That shit won’t fly anymore. I might get it in two years when it’s 10€, but only if your kill your launcher as a requirement.
- Comment on ‘Unknown 9: Awakening’ Arrives To 200 Steam Players, Poor Reviews 1 month ago:
People robbed themselves.
Are you fucking kidding me? It’s 79.99€ on Steam and you’re talking as if the opportunity to experience it is lost forever. If it’s worth a cat shit, I’m looking forward to its proper release in 2026. at 15€ or less.

share vision of a metaverse spanning “Roblox, Minecraft, and Fortnite”
They’ll erode the popularity of all three with this shit. You have a hen that lays golden eggs? We have one too! Let’s smash them at the speed of sound and hope it results in a megachicken that lays eggs double in size.
- Comment on Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time 2 months ago:
I am really enjoying this downfall of Bethesda, Blizzard, Ubisoft and EA, more than I enjoyed anything they published in half a decade. I wish death also to Gearbox. It’s coming and after Randy bought and promptly ruined RoR2, my schadenfreude is tingling.

now the game requires a PSN account on PC
I gladly would have paid 10 €bucks for the upgrade as I really enjoyed the game, but Sony can get fucked, it’s a singleplayer game.

- Comment on Remedy and Annapurna announce a strategic cooperation agreement on Control 2 3 months ago:
All your games are on Steam and stuck there
No, that’s the point, I have tons of ubishit and hundreds of Sweeney’s freebies, some on gog, origin or whatever they’re calling it these days, all over the place. What monopoly? I mean they sold me a linux pc in a gamepad that’s fully fledged arch only Valve is maintaining it for me, drivers work with no fiddling or deep lore research. But I can do whatever with it, it’s a personal computer. They didn’t try locking it in any way. Remarkably monopolistic
- Comment on Remedy and Annapurna announce a strategic cooperation agreement on Control 2 3 months ago:
Dear PC gamers, please stop bitching about installing a second games launcher.
I’m neither bitching nor installing that shit. I take every freebie, but never install anything other than through Steam, just let 'em pile up. I’m actually not bothered by exclusivity at all, I only exceedingly rarely pay for games before they’re 75% off a few years down the line. Stuff like Synthetik 2 or Shapez 2, where I know what I’m getting and it’s a small team with an uncompromising vision.
Epic’s behaviour was explicitly to try and break Steam’s entrenched monopoly
Steam doesn’t have monopoly on anything, they just have superior service that people prefer, but there’s quite a few stores / launchers. I like Epic’s engine, but their launcher is still crap five years down the line.
