Link ot the actual source. No need to give someone regurgitating their content the ad impressions instead of the people doing the work.

They did it a second time, so what is it now? Dependable incompetence?
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 2 days ago:
Yeah this seems to be something people are missing. These tests sometimes prohibit all reviewing and commenting in their NDAs (including positive ones). It’s a playtest, not a beta, review copy or pre-release.

I love the petty envy Sony displays here. “Fuck! Microsoft is getting all the bad press attention! Quick! Do something!”
- Comment on The way my daughter's middle school health class classifies drugs is insane. 1 week ago:
That’s because from a health perspective, alcohol in particular is an “end state drug”. It’s what you die with. It ruins you. Not as fast as heroine, but just as thoroughly.

To someone from central europe it’s always weird how houses get build from wood in the US. 😅 I imagine you can hear ~everything happening ~anywhere in the house?
- Comment on Microsoft Closes Redfall Developer Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi Rush Developer Tango Gameworks, and More in Devastating Cuts at Bethesda 1 week ago:
Yeah the studio put out nothing but nice games. Sure, Ghostwire in particular wasn’t stellar, but it was also enjoyable and pretty well done. Evil Within was dorky, but in just the right way. Hi-Fi was phenomenal, and that alone should have seen them physically behead every single higher manager at Bethesda before they tough anyone at Tango.
But alas, apparently if it ain’t Fallout: Ghostwire or Fallout: Hi-Fi, then it doesn’t matter. Manager bonuses ain’t going to pay themselves (hrm… come to think of it, they do?), line has to go up!

but Dishonored, Deathloop, and Prey all did pretty well I thought
I thought Arkane Austin (the closed one) was only Prey of those. Which is a shame, because Prey was utterly fantastic.

Because the indie space is also a graveyard. Investors are increasingly wary of funding anything but a “guarantee” and plenty of studios have had to shutter because the funding they were promised was rescinded.
Maybe gaming has become too bloated as a concept if no company can ever produce a product with their own money any more, instead always listening entirely to investor cash.

Shouldn’t the normal size be 2? Given, well, the name?
- Comment on A while ago one of my old accounts got banned from r/news for saying I wouldn't bone some celebrity. Now if I forget and comment on a front page post with any account this happens. 1 week ago:
Maybe you should do something other than flamebaiting. You realize this community is casual? Looks like you are pretty lost.

Yeah but what about the other 99% of cookie use cases?

Why?
- Comment on Helldivers 2 now delisted in 177 countries 1 week ago:
Yeah same, bunch of my friends had been playing it for a week or two, but between the in game story, the season passes and the utterly intrusive DRM, I figured I’ll wait for a good sale at least. Well, guess I’ll be saving 100% on this, now!
- Comment on Helldivers 2 now delisted in 177 countries 1 week ago:
I dunno, I don’t think the game would benefit from flat combat and meanigless crafting grinds.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 now delisted in 177 countries 1 week ago:
I think the mistake was ever thinking that one company is “good” while the other is “bad”. Companies are just different flavors of bad once they grow above a size of, well, once they are companies.

This is why AI is not actually a good solution. Perfect example.
- Comment on Xbox Console Sales Are Tanking 2 weeks ago:
It’s pretty late in its life, could be that anyone who would be a potential sale got one at this point? I remember that being, at the time, the reason for the sharp decline in Ocarina of Time sales in Japan, they effectively sold one to everyone who has an N64 so they “maxed out”.
- Comment on Manor Lords is off to a flying start on Steam, just hours after its early access release 2 weeks ago:
Yeah plus from a consumer perspective it’s nothing special.
It’s just a buggy release, only the bugginess and unfinishedness is known and openly announced. Which makes it more earnest, of course. On the other hand just like with any other release you have 0 guarantee or influence over whether missing features get added in the future and/or bugs get fixed. If the content is worth the money asked it’s a buy, if not it’s a wait.
- Comment on Star Wars Outlaws Requires The Internet To Install It 2 weeks ago:
You’re new to Ubisoft, right? Ubisoft needs online on installation cm because their shit is so buggy that not even the installer could make it all the way without a crash if not for day 1 patches. No need for DRM if the game doesn’t work!
- Comment on Been playing FF7 Rebirth (35 hours in) and really not enjoying it. Does anyone else feel this way? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah exactly, the middle was always pretty empty and aimless.

Weird Crew reporting in, running up to you using ESDF. 😅
- Comment on The wild successes of Helldivers 2 and Baldur's Gate 3 send a clear message: Let devs cook 2 weeks ago:
Well yeah it is. It’s also heavy on the mtx, non-pushy as they stay (for now). Compared to something like DRG I really don’t feel the appeal, apart from maybe having overplayed DRG at this point.
- Comment on Manor Lords is off to a flying start on Steam, just hours after its early access release 2 weeks ago:
unfinished release
I feel “early access” has this implication that it’s not just a product that is unfinished being sold for money with a pinky promise that it’ll get better in the future. It’s better than a normal release that ends up being unfinished, but only by being somewhat open about it.
That being said, game looks fantastic. If they keep at this, could become something really really cool in the future.

- Comment on How Greed Ruined Gaming 3 weeks ago:
And there’s so many new kids entering gaming all the time who have never known a better world.
That’s the real big issue here, IMO: The North Korea approach. Kids are starting to become able to spend money who were indoctrinated with this. Because to them it’s the north. It’s just a part of this entertainment that you continuously spend small amounts of cash. To them it’s normality.
