Are you talking about the highways? If so, those gave me trouble at first too, but I figured it out. Once you select one from the toolbar, tap a point on the map. That’ll be where it starts. Then, tap the location of the destination, and the highway will form itself automatically connecting those two points.

I honestly can’t tell how your comment applies to what I said. Yes, monopolies are bad. That’s why I said that Steam being so much larger than their competitors is a problem. I’m pretty sure we agree on that point, but your comment seems antagonistic and I don’t know why.

Steam being larger than all their PC competitors put together is certainly a problem, but I don’t think it’s a problem that’s affecting the topic the article discusses. That seems to be an entirely different issue.

While I agree with just about all of your points, there’s one thing I’m not clear on. Who’s the monopolist in your scenario? The console space has 3 competitors and on the PC side, you’ve got several more. I don’t see any of the big PC or console companies dictating game development trends. That seems to me to come from the publishers chasing the next big thing, or trying to make their own version of the last big thing. The rest of what you said is spot on, though. We need stronger unions and we need to demystify what developers do. And we absolutely need to tell the tech bro types to fuck off and stop stinking up the place.

I would not say no! I enjoyed the first two Torchlight games.

They did indeed. That game had its problems, but I liked it. I remember seeing it years later, after the game had been sold to… I wanna say it was a Korean company. They massacred the writing and the game is unrecognizable now, which is sad.

Didn’t they do that years ago when the Diablo 1 and 2 devs formed their own studio and made Torchlight 1 and 2? And then went under because the games didn’t sell enough and the IP got sold to some shady company who made it into a weird, half assed MMO?

Read… Article? What are you, some kind of nerd?!

They’ve always been quite clear that this is a passion project and that they’re nowhere near done with it. However, that doesn’t stop a chunk of the community from being absolutely convinced that the next update is the last, pointing to all kinds of obscure wording from old interviews or data mined files that are clearly incomplete as proof of this. It’s a really weird thing and I don’t get it at all. I remember last year a lot of people were spreading rumors that the summer update would be the last, based on kind of weird numerology. It’s baffling.

To add to this great list, I’d recommend Blur. Imagine Mario Kart, except fair and in a realistic setting with real cars. This game was phenomenal and should have had so many sequels. Alas, it was the swan song of Bizarre Creations.

Exciting! I’ll be signing up for sure.

I’ll say it. He’s definitely at least partially responsible for this situation that he’s complaining about now.

You’re all wrong. It’s DriveClub. They put so much detail in the simulation of air pressure, angle of light coming from the sun, dynamic volumetric clouds, and so much more. On top of that, they simulate their weather on the conditions 100 miles out from the actual racetrack to make things as realistic as possible. It’s absolutely gorgeous.

Sadly, they’re one of the worst offenders of shutting things down.

My favorite types of those are when they flash the text, “The trailer starts NOW!” on the screen immediately before the trailer starts.

Hahaha is this the new unit of measure for game sales? 😂

This game made me get emotional over extremely simple squares and rectangles and I’ve never fully come to terms with that. 10/10 I definitely recommend this to everyone.

I played the demo and really wanted to like it, but server issues ruined the experience even then and I never saw another human player, so how many people could have been trying to play? And that’s not to mention the quite poor performance on rather capable hardware.

What, you don’t want to get a second job just to afford a gaming console? 😂

From what I can tell, it’s that plus a documentary on the history of the game.

On a side note, that has to be the most entertaining Easter egg I’ve seen in a game. I remember showing it to my cousin and his jaw dropped. 😂

I dunno, man. The kids these days are into all sorts of crazy things.

They really missed an opportunity by not calling it Naughty Box.

Username checks out.

That’s true, I suppose. 😂

…I wouldn’t mind if there were more love service games. 👀

Some company made one once, back in the early 2010s. I think they released a successor the following year, but neither phone sold well enough to keep going. It would be cool as hell if that were more common, though.

How about I listen to what he has to say when he and his team supports one of their recent music games for longer than about a year.

Cool way to get blocked, dick.

Very true!

How does a game where you don’t actually do battle have a battle pass? Absurd!

Feels like Epic should shoulder some of the blame here as well, considering they allowed the fossil fuel company in the game at all. Fuck both of these companies.

Wired active noise cancelation headphones exist, you know. They have batteries, which are a perfectly legitimate source of power.

That’s what you get when trying to charge a phone with a ladder!

Hopefully someone saved the video, because it looks like it was removed.

Can we really be said to have learned the lesson at all if we keep repeating the same mistake?
