Eh I played when the OG Mortal Kombat came out all the time at the local pizza place when I was like 9, and I turned out fine. I’ve only murdered a handful of people so far. It’s not like I became a cop or anything like that.

It’s not that complicated imo, and I’m not attempting to diminish your experience.

Though, if you played day one, the hate that was given was completely warranted. Especially if you played on old gen consoles, when they said it was compatible.

This is coming from someone that genuinely liked the game, bugs and all.

Not because I’m cynical, or had grand expectations. It was literally because I never played a game that was so buggy in my life, and I’ve been playing since NES.

I paid for a finished product that wasn’t finished. I was lied to.

I can list the bugs and crashes I experienced, but it’s well documented.

It wasn’t like if No Man’s Sky was over promised and it was basically empty. It was if NMS was released it being empty, and crashed every 2 seconds.

Oh 100% I’m replaying it rn. It’s a much different game after release.

I got it on Xbox One day one because I bought into the marketing. I’m a sucker for distopian Sci-fi.

I wasn’t disappointed with the story, or the gameplay. I was just disappointed with something that felt unfinished. I felt like I was testing the game.

Since then I’ve bought and played EA games that have felt more flushed out.

Because of Cyberpunk I will never buy a game day one.

After getting Cyberpunk on release, no way will I get this until after all the patches they put down and say they are no longer supporting the game.

Sure I can answer that for you.

A regular guy, and you don’t have to.

I did watch the video. It’s why I asked. Anyone can say they are a consultant, and he doesn’t really mention much to back that claim. He doesn’t say anything novel either.

I’m not trying to be hypercritical, but if someone says that they are a credible source I want to know why.

Who is this guy and why should I care what he says?

Edit: Since no one could answer it. He’s an indie developer and made a few games. Silver Falls, Clasherball, and Animelee. He also says he’s a consultant, based on the video, but I couldn’t find anything of him doing that.

So he’s slightly a step above a regular guy making some video complaining.

I agree. I typically skip sex scenes in movies. Those scenes very seldom add anything to the story imo.

Unless it makes sense. In “What Women Want” with Mel Gibson, I believe that is a great example of a sex scene adding to the movie. The whole premise is him reading women’s minds, so him having sex with Marisa Tomei and hearing their thoughts while in the act added to the premise.

So when I see a movie that is just like “hey these people are hot and we should film them go at it” is just boring imo.

This is just my opinion but most comic book based games suck anyway.

Rimworld is one of those games I’m addicted to for like 2 weeks non-stop.

Then once I have 30 colonists and they can’t even keep the floor clean cuz I have too many things going on, I’m done because i know I’ll never “finish” anything. Even though every time I start that game I tell myself I’ll finally build the spaceship this time.

I wouldn’t go that far, but we could benefit with less of it.

Dude, ok. The responses you received imo are somewhat disingenuous, and bandwagonish.

Is it the answer to Skyrim or Fallout? God no.

It is fun? Yes. It’s Skyrim/Fallout in space. Don’t expect much more than that.

You want an ultra realistic space fairing game? Play Elite Dangerous.

You’ll have have at least 40-60 hours of fun. I’m not trying to be a shill here. There are a decent amount of things you can extract from Starfield for why you won’t like it. However, it’s still something worthy of experiencing.

Especially if you steal it.

Looks like a standalone fast paced Stellaris. Kinda like how Ozymandias plays, if you know that game.

So a dumbed down version of Stellaris.

So angry. See as you see fit my friend.

Start it at 11 minutes. Everything before that is just his opinions on why people don’t want to emulate games.

Not saying it’s a waste of time or anything, just if you already know the arguments then it’s unnecessary.

Ghibli? Sure. A nice feel good animated movie with loveable characters, definitely. It already has the anime feel to it.

Lynch? Idk about that… That’s the complete opposite end of the spectrum. I’d rather not feel weird and or confused by a Stardew movie, with a whole bunch of random obscure dark metaphors of farm life and the pitfalls of capitalism presented by heavy cinematography with very little dialogue that went way over budget.

This totally off topic, but back in the day Chad used to mean taking a giant dump or being a little piece of shit. So to me, you basically said the same thing twice.

I feel like the whole reason that changed was a Dad told his son “stop being a Chad kid”. So, when the kid asked what that meant, the Mom stepped in and said it means a cool dude. Then started telling all his friends “My Dad thinks I’m a Chad!”

So now its a giant Dad joke that has whooshed a whole generation.

I appreciate you.

I recommend getting off your high horse.

Honestly, I don’t even know myself. Was very much drunk when I wrote this last night. I’ll keep it up though for a reminder to not get too drunk and write things like this.

No, I don’t, because I remember trying to make attempts at making my own game.

Hence being called RPG Maker.

In 2003 when I was like 17 there wasn’t like a fuckin library of games made in RPG Maker, and if there was, it was only known to the super nerds. Knowing what RPG Maker was in 2003 made you a nerd. If you knew of a library of games for RPG Maker, made you like king of nerds.

I’m envious of your nerdom if you had that access.

Man some people just can’t be pleased. I’ve been playing the game all week, and it’s fantastic. It delivered exactly what I thought it was going to be.

Sure there are some bugs, and some complaints about a few minor things, but as a whole this game is spot on.

I’m just not sure what people are expecting. It’s Fallout/Skyrim in space, and it’s exactly what I thought it was going to be.

If you played on console you would totally understand the backlash.

I played and beat it on Xbox One. There was so many bugs it was astounding it was released in that form.

Cars falling from the sky, people floating around in T poses, characters faces just not loading in, missions not updating so you can’t complete it. It would crash at least twice every time I played it.

I still enjoyed the game, the bugs would range from funny to game breaking; however, it 100% deserved the backlash it got.

Aww man… I loved PayDay 2 and was stoked for the 3rd, but now I don’t have much desire to get it…
