I’ll say I’m tentatively looking forward to this. I was certainly surprised to see how much of the classic sexiness they leaded into for the trailers given the stupid opening disclaimer they plastered on that remakester collection they released of the classic games not too long ago.
I couldn’t say. I was having some recurring issues on my Pro installation so I was already set on doing a fresh install at the time so I downloaded the necessary ISO from MassGrave, backed up my stuff to an external and pulled the pin. There were some teething issues such as a couple of things I use needing the MS Store and I’m probably one of the few people who actually like Gamebar so figuring out how to install them to a version of Windows that wasn’t intended to have them was an interesting situation but I got there in the end.
It’s not as simple as about backbone. I agree that ethics are a good reason to stop doing business with an individual but if a company like Valve were to pull out of every country based on ethical matters, they’d need to found their own country.
I’m all for enabling choice but I can’t help but wonder how much this is a move for some easy PR compared to how big the prospective market is for such a game… as well as how I stay away from said buyers.
They sure are. That’s why they can naff off asking for charity. I don’t recall seeing their efforts on the SKG initiative so I don’t see much reason to be charitable. My and GoG’s relationship shall remain a “money for goods” arrangement.
Exactly this. I had been hoping that Benzies going his own way would be good news but I suppose this tells us a lot about the behind the scenes of R* instead.
Not so much paranoid, more desperately looking for excuses. Sabotage couldn’t make a game turn out that poorly unless every non-saboteur was fully asleep at the wheel. It’s poor direction plain and simple.
Ah. Firmly putting that one on the “hell no” pile. Even with a pre-patched bootleg I don’t have to pay for the privilege of risking giving up full access to my computer at the very least. Thanks for the info all the same.
I also generally agree with this. With my original comment, I had specific games in mind. For example, I’d love a new American McGee’s Alice that doesn’t feel so darn clunky. That kind of thing.
I dropped off quickly from the last couple because I didn’t find the things in the map to be all that engaging. Large maps tend to come with the Ubisoft formula of ‘content’ but rarely anything fun, in my experience.
The problem isn’t that I “couldn’t be bothered.”. The problem is I don’t care to believe such claims until I’ve seen the finished product. Is that better now? Or shall we keep assuming things?
Sadly, this is the best I could find but I could have sworn there was also mention of the depiction of women too.
