- Comment on Did anyone really think the Final Fantasy 7 remake was better than the original PS1 version? 1 day ago:
I loaded my late 90s save from the big box PC release on Steam and the achievements came rolling in.

FFVII has been my all time favorite video game since the late 90s. The remake is so chock full of unnecessary fluff and gives me zero reason to care about it.
I couldn’t finish Rebirth. It’s too much of a slog and makes me miss the tight pacing and storytelling of the original game.

I’m playing through Pokemon Unbound on my Steam Deck and it’s scratching a decades old itch. I mostly outgrew the games after Gen 1, but that little red Gameboy Pocket got me through many a 9th grade study hall.

The ROM hack Pokemon Unbound is what you’re looking for.

Same. I went as a child, but I have no desire to go as an adult. A friend of mine spent one afternoon texting me at work while he was waiting in line for the Avatar ride. There was a sign estimating his remaining wait time. 184 minutes in the July heat.
Fuck. That.

Correct. Lets hope Valve remains a consumer-friendly monopoly for the long term.
Legions of lesser companies have long since enshittified themselves while screwing consumers until they are blue in the face.
God bless Gabe.

Meh. I’m over it. Shovelware is abundant on all platforms and it’ll lead to another industry crash similar to 1983 as soon as the economy chokes.
My Steam backlog will last years.

Anyone who bought into this crap kind of deserves it at this point.
I keep my appliances dumb AF because I have half a chance at repairing them should something break.
There are also fewer points of failure.

- Comment on Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production 2 months ago:
Company leadership anywhere these days make me sick with the way they try to spin AI like it’s the second fucking coming of Christ when their true intentions are far more insidious.

True. Battle Royale killed the arena shooter genre.

Sweeney’s customers are the shareholders. Not the gamers.

My Steam backlog is 600+ games deep so I don’t have to swim in that Epic shit. Sweeney can suck a nut.

Unreal Tournament 2004 was a spectacular arena shooter back in the day before Battle Royale and MOBAs completely took over. Aged like fine wine too.
Yeah, I’m old.

Bingo! Valve is one hell of a monopoly, but they don’t totally fuck their customers. Sweeney has to answer to his shareholders. Those are the real customers; not you and me.
