Pity. The guy to take that issue up with just left the building 🤣

Hot take: I think that’s been well established 😉

Oh. Okay. 4X. Explore, Expand, Exploit, Exterminate. It’s a genre of strategy game that tries to offer “non-military” winning conditions.

Think Civilization or Stellaris.

Edit: "I give MOO a XXXX rating because it features the essential four Xs of any good strategic conquest game: EXplore, EXpand, EXploit, and EXterminate. In other words, players must rise from humble beginnings, finding their way around the map while building up the largest, most efficient empire possible.

• or just read the fuckin’ article 🤣

re Truck Sim, do you play keyboard and mouse or with a wheel +/ pedals?

I know this was written in English, but…

Hear hear.

Wut

Dashing and daring, courageous and caring!

It was the reason I downloaded Steam, and back in those days I was pissed that I had the CD and the box and the manual AND they wanted me to go online and download more than a gig of data on my crappy dial up.

I got the game in the morning and I only got to play it later that afternoon… and I swore I’d never use Steam for anything else again.

Fast forward 20 years and probably a few thousand bucks later 🤦🏻‍♂️

If that’s what you meant with your original comment then I deeply regret engaging with this at all 🤣

Have a nice day.

Shifting the goalposts on behalf of OP, but whatever. Where are you guys coming from?

Narrative games of any scope are almost inevitably going to bump into themes like hierarchy, power dynamics and moral dilemmas. That doesn’t make them “political” in the sense that they’re directly discussing real events around you. I won’t presume anything about your personal position here, but OP gives the impression that if a fantasy game depicted a fictional race subjugated by another he would start complaining that it was woke.

If you want a story without those things you largely need to pick a different genre.

Good to see my sixth sense tuned to useless bullshit is still working. I knew some joker was gonna call me out on Tetris 🤣

Doom? Tetris? Need for Speed? Wii Tennis? WTF are you talking about?

Rare for a PC Gamer review these days; that was actually quite well-written.

I felt so seen by that pc gamer article talking about how the author had been playing Alien: Isolation for ten years without ever finishing it.

I am that person exactly. I love it, but I have a very limited constitution when it comes to how long I can play that game without needing a long enough break that I should probably just start it over 🤣

WTF. That took a turn. Poor moggy. I wonder now what he was printing.

This dude is such a treasure.

The correlation that failed you is the one between your anecdote and the topic of the article 🤣

Ha ha 🫤 yup. I guess?

It’s a lot. I feel like it’s maybe backfired a bit, because I’m just irked by this enough for my chances of picking this up to have dropped past zero.

Spam is spam.

This Britta filter thing is fucking gold and I’m keeping it. Salute.

Act it, yo. Age is more than a number.

You should consider the possibility that you don’t know what “outrage” means. I’d take a breath and go check. We can wait if you like.

MangaloreGaming has some absolutely hilarious reviews of exceedingly bad games.

Goddamn I did not think you were gonna help out on this one. Adder, you biscuit. High five. Thanks for typing that out.

Links and everything. You’re a mensch and not a bot :)

Edit: I still don’t agree with you that they should release the data because the company isn’t a monolith and there’s innocent people’s effort and IP at stake. But at least now I feel like I see where you’re coming from.

🤣

You’re not being super useful, man. Commenting like this is just talking to yourself in a mirror. Wikipedia has some info about them, so I guess I’m a little caught up.

What part of this makes it a good thing?

Why?
