Do it. If people want to pay high prices for brand new video games, let them pay it. I’ll just do what I’ve always done; wait for a sale.



Reminds me when bioware put out a poll asking if mass effect 3s extended cut met expectations.

Yes… Yes it did. I expected it to be a bit meh and that’s exactly what I got.

“look they love it!”



It wasnt until the shinra tower in FF7 that I figured out how to slot materia.



Steam feels like a library with a store attached. Epic feels like a store with a library attached. If they changed the way they presented the epic app then I’d be more inclined to use their services.


I keep meaning to buy a dvd writer…




I should play GTA5. Still havent touched it. I think I have it on PS3 somewhere…


I remember some TV show trying to make everquest look bad or simply misunderstanding what logging out meant. The angle that was being pushed was you can’t logout if you are attacked, so you need to keep playing. Obviously being forced to stay logged in would interfere with your rl obligations!



Group announces fan remake. Group get cease and desist. Internet tells them they should have just dropped it one day out of the blue. A tale as old as time. Im sympathetic. But its idiotic to announce a fan remake of anything unless you have the written consent of the owners. (and even then its risky because they can always revoke those permissions at random)


I just want to say fuck nerve problems and tinnitus. Most of all, fuck having these legitimate problems and not having any useful diagnosis.


Or as some of us affectionately call him, Hack Walters. Guy can write characters fantastically, but I don’t think he has it in him to write consistent narrative. Well, not unless he has improved over the last few years. (x to doubt).



I mean… it’s amost as if Skyrim has years of iteration under its belt and a thriving modding community who can use mod tools to keep things fresh.


In a new patent filed by Sony earlier this month, it was revealed that the tech titan plans to bring about a feature allowing users to cherry-pick exact moments from which they can replay a game. It’s a feature that would empower users to track back through a campaign and select a specific moment in time to change a decision, re-experience something epic, or recount their steps, without needing to replay entire chapters – or the whole game.

You can copyright loading auto saves?




Id be more inclined to use the launcher if it was more like steams. The epic launcher feels more like a store than a library of my games.


You could say the prices were… Criminal.



Remember when they took handle X from it’s original user Gene X Hwang, who had it for years? The renamed him to @x12345678998765.

User names are taken as easily as they are given. They aren’t worth any price unless you have some memes to spread.

But hey. Claim as many names as you like now. Apparently you get to charge 50k to sell them to those with more money than sense.



You know what Todd? I don’t believe you. Just admit you fucked up by announcing it too early.

Specifically, the famous video game director was asked if he regrets announcing the next Elder Scrolls games so early, as it could take another four years before the game is actually released. “I have asked myself that a lot. I don’t know,” admitted Howard. “I probably would’ve announced it more casually.”



So its essentially modders are only uploading their mods to the steam workshop and the versions of the game without workshop support are up shit creek without a paddle.

I admit I’m kind of guilty of this with the mods that I create and publish for stellaris. I pretty much only publish them to steam although Im given the option to upload to the paradox launcher. Personally I’d prefer to only publish through the workshop since Im used to the system, and its an easy way to get feedback on my creatons, however I can see the benefits to the ecosystem as a whole by allowing anyone who has the game to get the same mods in a bespoke mod store.


Payday 2 got several hundred updates over its decade of activity, so the game will get better over time.

Payday 2 is the standard baseline that payday 3 should have launched at.


Let this be YET ANOTHER LESSON about the products that Bethesda puts out.


I figure most don’t know where else to shit post. I personally can’t think of a Twitter alternative of the top of my head. Note I’m a hermit.



Companies should be fined based on how long an object is cluttering space. Billed monthly. One time fees hardly seem appropriate.


Maybe the 3.5mm jack and headphones could double as an antenna!


And people will lose their shit if you don’t rate a game they like as 10/10. For some reason a 7/8/9 is personally offensive.



We have altered the deal. Pray we do not alter it further.

This deals getting worse all the time!


John Riccitiello is trying to get another Worst Company In America award for his mantlepiece.


I fixed my drift with a small piece of cardboard. I figure Nintendo could have eliminated some drift by increasing the material thickness in the cad file they use. They just choose not to.
