I toast my bread on a cast iron skillet. Takes longer but I’ll never have to replace it.

It something Nintendo excels at and it’s weird they haven’t tried it. Nintendo puts out dozens of mid range games a year that are solid with no weird monetization.

You can’t even blame the great sales on Nintendo having all these amazing IPs because they built most of those IPs from scratch WITH mid range games and the occasional AAA in the series. It’s a long play but these business types are to busy looking at the quarterly number to start building now.

Oh he for sure has tons of mental issues and illnesses and so does a portion of his community. The thing is, he’s been a major streamer for fucking ever, at this point it’s sort of his fault he’s like that. He’s had loved ones and family try to help over the years but he just has the money to tell them to fuck off. Usually it’s hitting rock bottom that gets people to change but it’s very hard to do that when you have tons of money and don’t do drugs.

For anyone who isn’t aware you can also block channels, click the three dots on the thumbnail and hit the ‘don’t show channel’ button. I tend to block channels that even talk about him cause I’m just not interested in dramatubers either.

I know steam has an option to add non steam games to the launcher so you can see and launch through it. Iirc it’s at the bottom left of the games list.

Fair enough.

That’s sorta a given for games in alpha. It would be weird to code an extreme anti cheat when you don’t have any of the gameplay systems even set in stone and tons of things can still change. A basic one works fine for now.

You’re right. They even had cheat codes in game you could use for memes.

Yea same lul. Not sure who thought it would be a hit. It’s just overwatch but with guardian of the galaxy visuals.

Normally I would take this as a joke but they shut off concord after 10 days and that was worth 200mil. I’m surprised they didn’t give it 2 weeks at least.

That’s still better than consoles can run most native games too lul. People always use the argument that consoles ‘just work’ at max graphics as a selling point when it’s rarely the case. Almost every new game has issues on release that need to be fixed and even after some never run at max.

You could also buy cheaper ‘lesser’ parts if you’re not interested in playing the top of the top new games. I basically only play league, ff14 and indie games. My 12 year old laptop can run everything I play still with no problem (I know cause I take it to my girlfriend when I stay over), granted I do have a pretty nice pc now a days.

That reminds me of hypixel.

Yea I recall it being like 20 something. That’s why I never pre-order. Without having poof I would assume they got refunded if it stopped development, it’s epic games. I do recall it did get released eventually but I had lost interest by them.

Wait wasn’t the original concept for fortnite actually a wave based tower defence game? I remember being excited for that and then battle royal happened and I lost all interest.

Buying forced diversity bug studio shlop you mean. Plenty of tiny diverse indie games that do well for themselves out there.

God I hate cinematic trailers for unreleased games. It’s fine if it’s a released game that I can just Google gameplay.

Iirc it had occasional pve events but the point of ow2 according to them was to have a permanent pve mode which iirc never happened but I haven’t played in a while so take my words with salt.

They have other games in the works. I’m in the alpha or beta now? Of their overwatch like called deadlock.

I’ve been hearing the dislike for the name but I personally like it for a fighting game. Sorta reminiscent of Japanese fighting games that can have crazy names for sequals.

It also has a couple of good shortenings for players. They could call it xko or 2ko. Much like how people just call league of legends, league or lol. Granted I don’t actually play fighting games but that’s just my opinion.

Holy shit dude. Even with a guide I also couldn’t find it. Even playing multi-player with my buddy who already found him previously and knew were he was we still struggled to find him with a guide.

Weren’t they specifically advertising for that? The criticism is valid if they were.

My thought coming into this thread. Plenty of people here sucking their dick and forgetting the terrible launch. They earn what they deserve.

I get what you’re saying about devs needing income but devs already got paid for making the game. All revenue after goes to executives who had little to nothing to do with making the game and I know some people could argue that if the company doesn’t make money then the devs will be out of a job but that’s a BS propaganda argument. Even when games make record profits teams get let go. Fuck blizzard.

That wasn’t in response to my racist comment but in response to the archaic comment. They’re as much archaic in procedure and bureaucracy as they are advanced in tech.

It’s because it’s a Japanese company. I’m not saying this out of racism but because they’re known for being archaic in how they do certain things. Like game modding and work schedules. Their public transit is top fucking notch though.

My phone started doing this not to long ago, showered a picture and full name and everything. I’m assuming it has to do with Google and Gmail and Google fi which I have. Fuck Google. I never consented to this.

I’m thinking he was probably selling saves with all the Pokémon plus all the Pokémon in shiny and a complete story. I did this with every single Pokémon game prior to switch and put them all on my Pokémon home when they were discontinuing pokebank, but only the ones that are able to be caught legit that way.

I might have to look for that, I played it right before it got shut down, my download opened and I was able to do a min or two of the tutorial but then it just kept crashing. Then a couple weeks later I saw the announcement that it was shutting down.

I tried playing the old one years ago and it didn’t even run.

There’s always a niche. Nobody thought anyone would care enough to watch them play video games badly but here we are. Really if you set a cam in your league and have half funny commentators who know their stuff people would watch.

Look at speed running too, it’s even more niche than just playing games and it gets millions of dollars a year too.

It’s not because of the porn but because of the taboo. You’re not supposed to be seeing porn on twitch so her pushing the envelope appeals to a bunch of people.

Yep 100 percent agree.

When I say they can do whatever they want, I mean it in the ‘they literally could just follow all those rules and regulations to just allow porn on there if they wanted to’ sense. There’s nothing stopping them from doing it besides money and the fact they’re allowing what they currently do means money is winning.

There’s nothing cruel or illegal on what’s currently going on with twitch but I get what you’re trying to say. I’m just tired of people forcing their views on me because of their kids. Mind you, I don’t hate kids.

There’s a handful of prominent streamers pushing the softcore meta hard but as a whole I agree with you. The people complaining about the children need to understand it’s a private company and they can do whatever they want, if parents don’t want their kids seeing that stuff then they should moderate them better instead of trying to push the responsibility of raising their kids onto others.

Bad launch is giving then the benefit of the doubt which they don’t deserve. They intentionally launched an incomplete game so they could make the money now and look good for investors, and then just fix it post launch while also giving out ‘free’ updates that should have just been all there on launch.

Mind you I’m not complaining about the actual developers, it’s always the executives who are to blame when this happens.

People need to vote with their wallets, if they stopped pre ordering and buying buggy messes at launch companies would be incentivised to actually release fully working/fully developed games.

Also the whole background of how the devs and play testers were treated is horrendous.

Watching gamers back peddle on cyberpunk hurts my soul. Just because the game is good now doesn’t excuse the bullshit they pulled on launch but peope just excuse it because it’s good now, they get what they deserve.

You weren’t kidding. People really shilling hard in those comments when there’s no numbers at all given and it’s all guesstimates at best.

It’s a distraction tactic. Blizzard has been doing it for years in wow too.

The actual reason is to hide the fact they’re probably not gonna have much if any pve content soonish. That’s the whole ‘reason’ behind ow2. They just layed off a bunch of staff too.
