There were a few games that explained slow updates with “just download them on steam” when asked, ofc it’s not on steam that publishers are lazy. Publishers are lazy because steam has such an overwhelming majority that they can ignore customers on other platforms. I do prefer gog because they are drm free and offline, so in the inevitable crash of global internet i will have my oldie games, lol.
It didn’t, it’s extremely boring, everything is disney-ified to unbelievable level, and there is no conflict, at all. At worst someone can say something mildly hurtful (acceptable to children <10 years old) but at the end of the dialog everyone return to happiness, the villains are bad and evul, the heroes are good and heroic, there is no option to even be impolite, lol. Add to it “puzzles” that won’t puzzle a kindergardener, and that’s what veilguard is. I honestly don’t get why they hate their players so much as to assume that they are regarded.
I never even check what rating someone wiser than me assignes to a game. Most of the time, I would watch a trailer or gameplay video.
In the case of a new dragons age it was gifted to me, to be honest I thought that there won’t be new one after inquisition so it was a surprise without any negative expectations.
It feels cheap in general. Story is bad, your companions are bad as in they aren’t really companions more like speaking one shot abilities with long cooldowns, world is pretty actually, there is no role play in a game where you create your character. Also you need to read a wiki if you by chance forgot in the last ten years who the bald elf is, or the gnome guy, if you never played well, your bad.
The evil gods are disney princess’s evil step-mother evil, it is straight up heroic fantasy world (compared to prevous less heroic titles, where the world is pretty dark and post-apocalyptic) with pg filter, there is nothing in the story that can discomfort you. Dialog options don’t even allow you to say something that may disturb someone, the strong worded option on the dialog wheel turns into heroic and very polite words that are said. There is no choices between bad and worse or bad and bad, there is no moral ambiguity to anything, and everything in the game is child friendly.
There is no conflicts, no one becomes angry, everyone is happy or a bit snarky at worst. Every problem between “comapnions” is resolved in one dialogue, and everyone return to their happy state.
You use the same 4-5 skills for the duration of the whole game (probably, first 10 hours at least), enemies are the same and there is a very small number of enemy types and they never end.
You can’t accept the reality, it’s a bad dragon age game (low bar) and just bad game in general, it’s not because non-male characters and pronounces. Also making elements of the game as obviously rage-batey as they could instead of getting a clue that alienating your customer base is a self-fulfilling prophecy of bad sales and deserves lay-offs.
Thanks, to be honest angband was pretty easy as long as you have an understanding of how to play rl. Brogue has some similarity in this with nethack, you need to know and remember things from previous games, which is hard for me. 😅
Infra Arcana was the brutal one due to a lot of clever machines on levels and sanity management and it’s pretty unforgiving in general.
I don’t think I’ve beaten any other completely.
It took just two days before the first layoffs of 2025 took place in the gaming industry. Netmarble F&C is laying off about 20 people — roughly 25% — at the company.
Netmarble F&C is a subsidiary of the mobile games company Netmarble. The studio is currently working on its new game Demis Reborn, which is scheduled to release sometime in 2025.
It depends. When done correctly it can be fun, if all creatures/enemies are always scaled to your level, no. Dragon monsters for example should always pose a challenge or some kind of monsters that are you mirror images/copies, that type of thing. Maybe it’s your rival or someone that has far more experience then you do, why wouldn’t their level also grow?
You post the same data now with article that doesn’t even have word “steam” in it. Your various sources weren’t linked. I think that clears why your source is “nonsense”.
Yes my words are changed because, you somehow read me saying multiple times of steam being monopoly in single use of phrase, steam behaves like a monopoly. I repeat, not liking one store doesn’t make me a fan of another, they both are horrible.
As for examples of anti-competitive behaviour, price matching that is being discussed in comments here is a big one, don’t you think?
Maybe it’s time for arm boards to actually support their trash. UEFI itself supports arm.
