The 3 people that still play 76 say it’s good now. I’ll choose to believe them and not check for myself.

He did? Weird, never mentioned it.

Representing. My top 3 steam games are over 2k hours each with plenty more above 1k.

Alright already have it but for my VR bros, Into the Radius is half price at 15 right now. It’s has its own story but it’s heavily inspired by stalker. Probably the best shooter/scavenger game on VR period.

I ran vr on one of those. Not well, but well enough.

There are occasional appearances of trans flags and a few characters who may or may not be LGBTQ, but the majority of the characters appear to be cisgender and heterosexual.

Imagine completely ignoring a canonically trans character to try to dunk on a game. Also softballing that “may or may not” when half of the romance options are homosexual.

Wat

Talking about balatro or csgo?

Let us have this one. Steam is the only thing in the world that hasn’t enshittified yet.

Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes.

They’ll slap together a new megaship that makes all the old pledge ships look like shit and price it at 5 thousand and watch the money pour in.

Taking amazing workshop weapons from 1 and making them paid dlc was a kick in the dick.

The tried to patent fucking MOUNTS. Someone get square and blizzard on the sue-train and ream Nintendo a new one.

C’mon judge, that’s just the overview of the time line. He doesn’t even dive deep into anything.

Blizzard as it was has been dead for a while now. Jeff Kaplan leaving suddenly was irrefutable proof that OW2 was going to be flaming dogshit and it was and still is.

A cash grab?

If we can generate content with Ai I’m sure we can generate views too. Just an endless ouroboros of Ai generating and viewing it’s own shit to milk ad money.

Not really. It’s porn now.

I can type with one hand and pull a lever with the other, thank you.

But really quick, explain how balatro is gambling for the idiots among us

I thought you were joking about the recent kerfuffle, but no, you’re really this stupid.

I know, I’m just saying that has indeed been the whole deal of the franchise. Basically a more unhinged gta.

like a bootleg GTA title.

You have correctly grasped the SR franchise. The first 3 titles were great and the 4th was playable at least. It actually outperformed gta in a lot of ways like car customization, and the ability to actually run, customize, and expand a gang.

I had to pause the game because I was laughing too hard to play when this happened.

Important to note that immediately after that cutscene, you massacre your way through dozens of luchadores while “you’re the best” by Joe Esposito plays.

Though to be fair, saints row was always a game that set the bar of ridiculousness very high, then one upped itself in the next game, and it was gonna be pretty tough after defusing a launched nuke while riding it, then smashing through the white house to land at the desk. Which is fine, by the way, because you’re already the president. And the matrix stuff but we don’t talk about that as much.

Jesus christ. Here I was imagining something like vortex mods or steam workshop, didn’t realize modding was incentivized beyond creative passion.

Child labor?

Looks like it’s too late. I Googled bullet heaven and it took a few minutes to find the actual game, which is ironically a bullet hell game.

Fosty is my favorite and one of very few reasons why I would rate the vr killing floor 2/10 instead of 1/10.

Gog keeps hitting me with admin access requests when I’m not even doing anything on it. Repeatedly. Until I kill the task. Not a fan.

Skywind is being developed as well.

Every prime gaming offer I took was for games on steam. I really thought they were just promoting twitch with drops and stuff, not actually trying to compete. Haha, the balls.

Wall Street doesn’t lose money when you buy stocks.

Hedge funds lost a shitload though. Wallstreetbets basically engineered a short squeeze and a few hedge funds genuinely lost a ton of money covering shorts. Granted, a lot of those diamonds handers were left holding the bag, but the effect wasn’t insignificant.

Smart thing to do for any and every AAA game is wait a few months. Launch will almost always be a shit show, then wait for the dust to settle and people say “it’s actually good now.”

I’ll personally be giving it a miss because the need to shake up the meta in a pve game is baffling. If I just spent days farming perfect guns and anoints to do raids on mayhem 10, don’t fucking change how it works so I have to farm a whole new build.

Honestly if the mods aren’t drag drop play I don’t even fuck with them. I’ve spent too much time modding games that weren’t made to be modded, and steam workshop has truly spoiled me.

Sort by last played. Sort by size. See the same names? Start blasting.

My heart goes out to her.

Edit: Anyone hiring?

You won’t believe what this priest did to get fired!

I had a blast starting out and discovering new materials and what I could do with them, upgrading my ship and guns, building bases, etc. I hit a wall when I unlocked most of what I wanted and was just logging on every few hours to check my settlement and send my fleet out. The quests are repetitive, exploring planets isn’t really exciting, and the combat system is honestly not great. There’s like 2 viable weapon attachments and the only hostile things are critters and robots, the latter of which are basically the cops so the more you kill the more come to kick your ass so you either have to fight wave after wave or run for your life.

Oh and the planetary vehicles are pretty cool but I think you have to have them on your capital ship to use them elsewhere, but I don’t have the upgraded drive to be able to actually take it to the places I would really like to have them. So I just move my ship around the surface instead, and that takes fuel just to launch it which is a hassle.

I’ll shit on Nintendo all day for any amount of reasons, but I just played wii sports with my nephews on a wii that I bought before they were born. Find me a working original Xbox 360 I fucking dare you.

Valve gets a free pass, of course.

Haven’t looked at it, but from what I’ve seen, big studio titles seem to be either a shitty port or a “Hey look you can interact with things!!” style vr tutorial instead of a game.
