The amount of hours of fun that game has given me, it was practically free anyways.
Looking forward to playing the DLC

I’ll give this a watch, thanks for posting.

Lots of good memories in Worms!

Yes came to recommend the same. Loving it with the missus and sometimes kid.

Great games

Yes, and me having babies. Linux is literally making me babies!

Right, but there’s nothing immoral about it either.

I live in a place where the rich pay their fair dues to the benefit of the less fortunate. That’s where I think you need to focus on getting, not slandering every successful company out of envy.

Thanks for the chat. You were nothing but respectful. Have a great weekend.

Sure, then «attack» the politicians allowing this to happen.

Up corporate tax and income tax for the wealthy.

Don’t attack the companies that play by the rules.

Then what is the point?

Why are they not allowed to create a good service and profit?
Why are the competition unable to take marketshare with lower fees?

It feels as if you have this number, >billion, makes a company evil. Why?

I agree with you that no single person needs a billion, but having earned it doesn’t make them bad. They innovate and move everything forwards. I’d much rather see my money with Valve than with EA, Activision Blizzard or any of the other faceless giants out there.

Yeah we swapped over to the PS5 DualSense. So much nicer.

Edit: only works on Homebrewed Switch sadly

Brothers: A tale of two sons.

Only game that ever made me cry alone.

Oh I agree with you wholeheartedly friend!
They don’t care because people keep buying their shit anyways, which is why many of us tell you to stop buying it and then we’ve gone full circle again.

I’m not recommending complaining to them because I think they will care. I do it because I it could have a greater impact than complaining here which has exactly zero impact.

It’s not that you can’t complain, but moreso that people are tired of reading about people getting ripped of over and over again.
It’s getting old when the solution is so glaringly obvious.

Alternatively focus your grievances towards the company. That has a better chance of making an impact in reducing the tainted waters.

So in short: you have a right to complain, but we have a right to tell you that you are a part of the problem if you pre-order or support companies continually doing this crap.

This is the part where you apologize for being rude and wrong and we all move on with our lives having learned something new.
No shame in that.

Happy weekend friend!

If only there had been a game that you had played thousands of hours on and had high hopes for the sequel.

He’s not arguing against hoping for a better sequel. He’s telling people to stop pre-ordering games without knowing how good the game is going to be.

Also, you waited a decade to play a game you wanted to play? That’s a you problem.

Read his reply again. He waited 10 years for it to release and get reviewed before making an informed purchasing decision. He made a smart move.

Yeah I saved it for the future.
Really enjoyed both It Takes Two and Portal 2 with the missus.

I don’t understand why they couldn’t keep pushing the 3060 until they were truly ready for a 4060 that’s better. You don’t have to release new products on every single segment every single time. Especially if they confuse the buyers of that segment.

I think that’s why: confusing those less “hardcore” into thinking 4060 is a massive leap from 3060. It’s pure corporate greed and annoying as hell.

I’ve played all the Batman games so I can’t enter in good faith, but thanks for doing this and good luck to those who wish to win!

I’ll try to join for the Middle Earth games if I spot them in the future giveaways.

Then I suggest you stop talking about rocket science until you gain the ability to see the world in a bit more of a nuance mate.

Have a great weekend!

By your logic, if I release a drug not mentioning it will kill you while knowing it will, I am not guilty of false advertisement even if I send it out for free knowing this will be published.
Murder sure, but not false advertisement.

If a game is being sent out without a performance limiting software with a clear plan of introducing this for the retail version, I would argue it follows the actual definition.

Quote: «the crime or tort of publishing, broadcasting, or otherwise publicly distributing an advertisement that contains an untrue, misleading, or deceptive representation or statement which was made knowingly or recklessly and with the intent to promote the sale of property, goods, or services to the public».

It’s deceptive. There is no arguing it. You seem like a bright dude arguing a moot point in to deep to accept being wrong.

Of course it is.
Them sending a copy of a game in the hopes the media outlet will write a favourable review is marketing 101.
It’s practically free marketing, so it’s the best kind even.

If the review came after launch from a purchased copy, then your argument would have had a leg to stand on mate.

Yeah I ain’t pre ordering, that’s for sure

Man I still listen to music from SSX 3.
So many great memories from that game.

I still haven’t had time to pick that up…

I need to do that!

I also ignored them for way too long.

When I finally decided to drop down and discovered the old mine with everything else that place has to offer (trying not to spoil), I was a bit pissed for not exploring earlier.

It also took me waaaay to long to realize the maps are “connected” and so are shrines/lightroots…
Just randomly noticed it after probably 50 hours in-game

I wanted to say CDPR, but I guess they fell from grace with CP2077.
I’d still rate them as rather trustworthy though.

Santa Monica Studio has also stuck to their guns with the GoW games and Cory Barlog seems to be a beacon of hope in this dirty industry.

Also Nintendo have been semi-decent. Yes the games are costly, but expansion packs are usually worth the dough if released. They probably fall outside the scope though…

I stopped buying games from Blizzard and EA out of principle.
I’m just sick of being considered part of the product instead of the end-user.

Agreed.

But not only for older titles to avoid the hype. I can just as well buy a hyped up game, as long as it’s a story driven stand-alone game.

Right now I’m enjoying the hell out of Tears of the Kingdom. My pace, my way, when I have the time for it.

You have an awesome day, Good Sir.

I love how, on the internet, we can write whatever crazy fucking thought pops into our minds and post it for the whole world to see.

I’m being serious. Weird people: never ever change!
