I see that design as choosing a tool for the job then. Top down is pretty niche but a valid point, first and third prison shooters though most pc players are going to use a mouse and keyboard.
I remember there was some 3rd party controller where you could hot swap the position of the analog and dpad, I always thought that would be a bigger deal in terms of accessibility.
I don’t know, I’m all for keeping people away from addictive behaviors and would rather micro transactions not be a thing at all full stop - but allowing users to get money out of games they have already invested in is also a benefit, so it feels weird to single out the one option that provides consumer value. Don’t play CS anymore? Sell the AK Fire serpent you unboxed for 2.50 back in 2014 and buy yourself a steam deck and keep a gift card for a few games. Or a new set of skins in whatever game your playing now is.
As far as the API goes, Im pretty unfamiliar so Im not sure what responsibilities a company has when using their site as a login to another site. There’s porn sites that allow me to sign in with Facebook / Gmail, if someone uploads CSAM to that site do those sites have a duty in some way?
Loot boxes suck but I’d argue valve is still one of the better approaches. Makers of skins get cuts of sales, Dotas sales help the international prize pool to an extent, and it doesn’t lock you into a treadmill just to unlock gameplay elements.
Every other company seems to be doing the same but somehow even worse.
You’re buying into brand war bullshit. I’m not in Playstation threads telling them to get a pc. You’re here defending nameless companies that dont care about you.
Play and buy the things that make you happy, a lot of people aren’t happy with console offerings as of late. That’s all it is, there is no righteous crusade, it’s video games man.
right nowI stopped for a long while after Adam and during the pandemic and I have to agree. Patricks chemistry with everyone is great, the Ryan lore well runs infinitely deep and they cast in general seems to be having more fun.
It’s a similar kind of content it always was but it’s making me laugh like it used to so I can’t complain.
Brought u this thing with Lawrence, Bruce and KassemG is also pretty excellent.
Their modding support is still being worked on though as they had to “basically rewrite the entire game and engine from scratch” and so the full DUSK DDK (Dusk Development Kit) built on the new DUSK is “still a few weeks away” but once done “you will be able to play all the custom maps with both Classic or HD visuals, replace weapons, models and more”. It even supports Quake and Half Life maps.
Being able to easily run other games maps seems cool, I guess this is on some sort of version of the quake or source engines then?
Who are the activists and what does DEI have to do with this? I am very confused and you have answered with riddles.
