Awesome, thanks.

Ahhh. Got it.

Out of the loop here… what’s GOG?

Isn’t Star Citizen that named grift that’s been going on for a decade or so?

Digitally purchased or earned items aren’t ours. I thought we all knew this already.

This makes me feel better about them being exclusive to Microsoft now. I’m not missing anything at all.

That makes sense. Seems I am too though. Doesn’t change the fact that I’ve no idea why they’re so upset about it.

Oh I can’t either. Totally with ya there.

Yeah. I get that. It makes sense, but I just don’t see it as some thing that really bothers me that much. I spent decades watching TV ads though, so, maybe I’m just more patient?

Personally, it doesn’t bother me. I use my PS5 to game and stream shows. I spend a grand total of mere seconds on the Home Screen.

Can’t quite understand why this is such a big problem. But we’re all into our own things so it is what it is.

Good for them. I’d love to see ALL industries do this but that’s going to be impossible. We’d need greed eradicated before that happens.

Because people are fucking stupid. It’s the same reason Disney is just mass producing marvel and Star Wars trash. And the rest of the film industry is afraid to gamble on original content now.

The bottom of the cash-printing barrel has been found in entertainment consumerism. And I’ve a feeling it’ll never go back to what it once was was.

Yeah… rather than create new shit…. Just keep doing this. Money prints itself when people are so easily pacified.

Well this is a huge bummer. I like idle games. They distract from anxiety. And I have a lot of anxiety.

I’m sure they’ll work it out.

So you built your own cross compatible gaming system?

And I don’t trust the judgement of someone panning something they haven’t even played.

At least it’s logical.

Yeah. I’m really looking forward to it.

Same.

Yeah… fuck them for enjoying a game, right? The nerve of some people. Why didn’t they take your feelings into account?

I think you missed the point.

Well said!

Opposite experience for me. Outside of lemmy, it seems people actually like it. I was destroyed by downvotes for simply suggesting that it’s a nuanced topic to flame a game on its day one release.

Most everyone I’ve seen that actually played it seems to like it.

K. Be mad then.

What about Outlaws is incomplete exactly?

And… BOTH of the games I mentioned were notoriously incomplete. Like- legendarily incomplete.

Because that’s where we are now. The internet made it easy to patch shit. This is how it is. We’re not going back to how it was because we’ve moved on from that. It sucks, but that’s how it is.

We can cry about how it used to be- knowing it can’t be that way again , or we can accept that things are different now and move on.

Want things the way they were? You’re you got have to remove the internet- yep…. The same internet you use to download that game and skip going to the brick-and-mortar is the same intern responsible for making patching incomplete games a thing.

Good luck.

ROFL! My opinions validated? You’re the one that posted a video about glitches in a day one release of a game.

You’re soaking up all the validation in the comments of people agreeing- and yet, seemingly butthurt that someone disagrees with you right here.

Go on man. If you’re not upset- ignore my comments and bask in the sweet sweet glow of people agreeing with your every word.

😆

I’m fine either way… mate

Oh and a side note:

One isn’t seeking validation by posting an unpopular opinion in a thread full of butthurt people crying over a video game.

Okay.

Oh I’m sure that’s the case as well. Totally agree, however- people really need to relax on this shit. No Man’s Sky and CP2077 both serve as perfect examples that day one isn’t a finished product.

The people need to lighten up.

I’m fine mate. and why would you be upset? I can’t answer that. I’m not the one that posted a lame video showcasing a day one compilation of glitches in a video game I have no intention of playing.

Have a day bud. I’m moving on. Maybe you should as well.

Well, I guess you dodged that bullet, eh… mate? But do know there are tons of people playing it that haven’t and probably won’t experience the issues in your cute little hate video. I hope that doesn’t upset you too much.

I didn’t say that either. But games have bugs at launch. They get fixed. But judging a game on its day 1 is fucking stupid.

That’s not at all what I said. And the fact that you need to create this straw man in order to have a response lends to the fact that you’re the type of person that will take a video on YouTube to be an example of what is happening to everyone that has played it.

Stay mad, bro.

No game was made to appeal to every player. I haven’t gotten it yet- so I’m reserving judgement.

I’d guarantee that everyone here’s favorite game of all time had bugs on launch. I say this with the understanding that there are games that launched with few to no bugs- many or even most of the AAA games we all know and love stated out with issues.

But don’t let this get in the way of a good old fashioned pitchfork parade. Keep on hating.

Definitely looking forward to this.
