This is the worst trailer they ever could have made for this game. It’s so bad. Why is it so bad?



I didn’t say people shouldn’t install Linux. But even if you do, browser share matters and if Microsoft is abusing their customers and tricking them into using edge in mass, then it will affect you as a Linux user too.


Microsoft can modify chromium. They can add proprietary things to it. Yes you could use edge if you have to critical pages that only works right on edge.



Switching to Linux won’t save you if Microsoft Edge takes such a huge market share that a lot of the internet starts to basically require it.


This article is complete trash who’s upvoting this garbage?


Starship Troopers (the book), is only fascist if you assume that anyone that’s pro-military is fascist.

In the book, the military is literally in the middle of genocide and killing unarmed families in civilian villages.


The cards were great, and I thought I would hate them.

The weird childish conversations and activities really killed the game for me. It was funny sort of. But it was like a 2:1 ratio of bullshit to strategic combat.


From what I read, it didn’t even just suck, it was practically fraud. They knew how many sales they had and only stood up enough servers to support around 200 players.


Is the AI as bad as horizon? Do all the reverts jump out in front with impossible acceleration and tire grip just so you have people to pass throughout the race instead of making the ai racers behave the similar to real players?

I didn’t even give Forza Motorsport a shot after horizon was ruined for me when I realized the AI cars weren’t bound by physics and were basically just artificial obstacles on what was basically a solo time trial every race.


Toxic” is different to everyone though. That’s why these comment sections always go in circles. To some people saying “paradox are crooks and they have no respect for us and they’re ripping us off by using us as beta testers,” is toxic to some. And to others it is seen as constructive criticism. So when someone says “this community is toxic”. I don’t really know what they’re saying. “Toxic” has just become a lazy buzz word that makes discussing this kind of thing pointless.


Manipulative, interactive sex workers are not the same as “nudity”.


The women in Twitch use sex and interactive false sexual interest and love to get people to give them money and buy them gifts. In some ways that’s worse for kids than pornhub porn. Do you expect a 15 year old boy to be able to avoid the “stripper really loves me” trap?


I have no better source than the person I replied to. I was on Reddit when the game was announced and it was clear that the game was about being gollum. Plenty of people were excited.


This is revisionist. There were a lot of people excited to play as gollum and people being concerned.


Aren’t you impressed with how willfully blind to reality they are though? That has to be worth some internet points!




I think the beginning of the original Prey was equally as good.


This isn’t even a slippery slope towards that though. This is all about consumer choice, privacy, and stopping a few companies from skimming 30% of the top of all digital sales.


That was my experience too. I tried to play seasonal content and quit after level 5.


To me, the late game is boring because it’s not as tactical as previous Diablo games. The view is so zoomed in and the enemies are so fast, numerous, and squishy that you basically just have to chew though the closest enemies. It’s not tactical or challenging. It’s either too easy or too hard and your skill doesn’t matter at all. I beat it once and don’t feel the urge to play it again.



They both have character development, but the plot is the main driver. That’s the opposite of RDR2 where the plot barely matters at all and it’s all about character development.


“Character driven” is a literary term. I can’t name any other character driven AAA games. I don’t think they exist. Every other game I’ve seen is “plot driven”. RDR2 had very little plot and it was all very much a side show. The main part of the story was the characters and how they changed over time.


RDR2 is the only character driven AAA game I’ve ever seen. I don’t think another one even exists. It was a masterpiece of a story.



This feels so much like a cyberpunk story. It’s so dehumanizing and has such disregard for humanity that it feels like a perfect match for the genre.

I’m really starting to understand how old people get to a point where they no longer want to keep with the times. This is gross.


If it’s like other games from this dev, then treat quests like table top rpg quests and don’t feel bad about cheating anyway you can. Their games are like D&D without a DM to get mad at you because you cheezed your way around a huge set piece battle that they worked on for an hour.


Unfortunately, the west’s political systems disincentivize projects that take longer than an election cycle. Everyone needs short term wins to secure re-election and it has stopped us from doing most things that inherently take a long time to show results.


The article states that the 15 sales were for multiple platforms and 16 is for one platform.


I’m wishing that they’d make one like Lost Odyssey. But 9 would be great too.


FF16 sold really well though. Square Enix likes making unrealistic expectations for their games and they do it every time. I don’t think they even believe their expectations are real. The real reason for their share loss is increased operational costs.


Yes. Definitely tell the random website all about yourself. Make sure you turn off your adblocker software as well!


Xbox game pass is good for people who have more time to play games than they have money to buy them. But if you have more money than time, and it’s really not hard to get there as an adult with kids, then game pass is becoming really shitty.


“You conquered Britain. Good for you. Well. See you later.”



Or all billionaires are scum who have written the laws and ensured that the fine for this is no more than an annoyance and removing the sign without a permit was a worthwhile risk and the right call to make.


Absolutely correct. My point though is that saying “men don’t get to have an opinion” is a silly, and unproductive argument in favor of what should he abortion rights. Representative democracy wouldn’t function at all if no one was allowed to have an opinion on things that they don’t do directly and not let those opinions influence how they vote. That’s a silly argument.
