You need to find a reviewer who focuses on indie you jive with. They’re funnel points for these sorts of things.

I like boomershooters, so Civvie11 and MandaloreGaming are my gotos.


Judging from the “quality” output from the company, he was just a yesman telling his bosses what they wanted to hear.



He’s opposed to it. He speaks with a very clam, professional voice, so people like to believe him. I get skeeved out by it personally. Honestly, we shouldn’t be taking advice from former Blizzard dev anyway. Nothing that comes from that company has ever been respectful to players or even human decency.


That could work. They could also pull some Serious Sam updates. There’s some subtly in SS4’s writing that’s quite nice.

Like having a completely normal conversation with a lesbian couple or prefering a power up item to a kiss, slightly taken the womaan aback.

Apparently the Duke Nukem Forever DLC that no one played had a femme fatale barking orders at him that kept Duke true, but shifted the power dynamic around.





Four, hardware requirements delaying would be purchasers.



Half disagree. They’ve taken a lot of risks in the past with designs that other companies wouldn’t have. Things that didn’t always pan out well and became the butts of jokes.

But yes, they’ve been a litigious company with ties to the Yakuza that people frequently forget as well.


So if I never buy a Nintendo product, I’m fine to emulate? Got it


Halo 1 was never difficult with Cortana telling you were to go and the waypoint on screen. Assault on the Control/Two Betrayals has arrows on the hallway floors and I never got turned around in The Library.

If you really want labyrinth level design from Bungie, the Marathon series is were it’s at and completely explains why there’s so much hand holding in Halo CE.


While I feel sorry for her as a worker, I do not feel sorry for her as a writer.

Live Service writing for AAA studios has got to be the most disposable form of fiction. I can find old short stories from magazines that closed close to a century ago, but I can’t play the Destiny series from start to finish today?




I keep saying the art style would be better for an Oni reboot.


The national government in Japan is a pile geriatrics who don’t want to do anything. Pretty much every prefecture(think state or provenance) raised the age of consent to 18 a long time ago.




It’s also has a human slavery mechanic and human/pal butchering mechanics. A gooner dating sim isn’t a big deal. If you don’t like it, don’t play it.





“Japan” isn’t a monolith. And how would we feel if Americans got upset at spaghetti westerns?


Zuck has never been a good person or treated his users with respect.

Tom from Myspace may have been the only stable one.


Yeah. It reads like fan fiction. Marc Laidlaw wasn’t involved. Hell, they didn’t ask Merle Dandridge to reprise her role.

It also doesn’t effect the story if there’s no more story. I’ll stick to the fan made spinoffs.


Fuck that guy. UT2k4 shipped with a Linux installer that never showed up on steam/gog before they delisted it.


AI techbros will have you believe that you can solve world hunger, cure cancer

And yet they don’t. Well, we already know how to solve world hunger. Just not a willingness.

Researchers are using AI as an additional tool for discovering new drugs, but the techbros and pharmabros are going to be over charging for any new cures even if they become cheaper to discover.


Remember when CoD bragged about having reactive fish when Mario 64 did it years earlier?

Found it.


The Seeker from Singularity is greatly under appreciated like the whole game. It fires a steerable bullet and slows time down while doing so.

BTW, any smart asses that want to go “Well Ackchyually” that the gun shoots the whole bullet with the casing, it’s based on gyrojet guns.


My friend group made a DM variant that was just Pistols with no shields and health at 400%. The only shots that mattered were headshots

We quickly learned that the pistol was not hitscan and it was always cool when two players took each other out.


The PS9 services for the PSN have been discontinued. Please upgrade to the PS11 to continue using your endocrine system.


Released in January 5, 1999. I remember owning this software and flawless running PS1 games on my Blueberry iBook with a USB controller. Still wild that a company had the balls to release this thing and actually won the case that [Sony brought against them](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Computer_Entertainment,_Inc._v._Connectix_Corp.), causing Sony to simply buy the company to discontinue the software.

And yet they couldn’t find the pocket change to keep the Unreal Tournament master servers up and games listed.


I once saw a post about Oni, a 2001 Bungie game get deleted from the Bungie subreddit for not being Bungie related.


There’s a few indie shooters I’ve played that are officially EA, but have hours of gameplay in their first play though and are very replayable. Selaco is an absolute joy with 9 hours on the main campaign and 22 hours for 100%. Officially EA with only the first episode out.


Wish they could fix the Halo2 co-op issues, but that’s twenty year old spaghetti code. It would be easier to just host the game on one instance, tunnel the second controller input and stream the perspective.
