Good joke games are rare.

If you like narrative games I would recommend “Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist”. It is very short (15 minutes), but it is good, and it is free: https://store.steampowered.com/app/409160

Another silly game with lots of jokes in it is “Kraken Academy!!”: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1158220

Good

Looks like an office shooting simulator

I can’t tell if this comment is sarcastic or not.

Bashing copyright trolls in court is a good thing for everyone, companies and customers alike.

This thumbnail tells you everything you need to know about DOA:

[Two years from now] “Don’t you guys have phones?”

My conclusion: If you want a stable computer then you should disable Windows updates: https://www.sordum.org/9470/windows-update-blocker-v1-8/

It’s an OK game to play if you have literally nothing else available.

There are a bunch of free games on itch.io or Steam that are much better.

I like how you can still shoot your gun during the cutscenes

I remember playing this game as a kid with next to no english language skills. I had to start over many times because I barely knew what I was doing. But I found it fascinating nonetheless.

In Cyperpunk you can have any combination of genitals that you want.

The AI voice changer in Arc is a fun thing to have. I am glad it exists.

What’s up fellow video hater?

Let me make a wild guess - you are over the age of 35, am I correct?

“Record breaking” is not necessarily a good thing.

Don’t get too exited. Maybe in a year or two all the bad has been patched out and it might become an actually good game.

I read that article and it seems somewhat incomprehensible

I think it was an OK way to tell a new story with pre existing characters. These games had very little wiggle room because the end result was already dictated by the books.

Good write up. Gamers have always been idiots. The moment that opened my eyes was when I witnessed the Modern Warfare 2 “boycott” play out:

Imagine releasing a passion project, and then going on hatemail.com to check for constructive feedback.

Not saying that the developer is at fault here. But NOT going to twitter.com is the first step towards a happier life.

Get off Twitter. You can just leave. Do it now!

The services was not down because too many people tried to play it. If you frame it like that it sounds like the people are at fault here.

The service was down because the company was not properly prepared to actually provide the service that they promised.

I never play it, but I am aware that it has been around for a long time. And it always seems that people liked playing it.

What is it that changed that? Did they add monetarization?

Wow, this is terrible.

Just as I expected it to be!

This is good news for everyone who is not an ubisoft shareholder

The fallout from that is gonna be delicious 👨‍🍳

They are a monopoly 100%, just believe me bro.

He already is on that list, right after Mitsoda

Thank god for reviews. I will buy this game once it has been fixed.

Those dastardly reviewers, always reviewing games and stuff!

It does make sense, because “choice paralysis” is a thing that exists. So instead of choosing the game you want and playing it, you might spend more time looking for games to play than actually playing them.

Translations are a delicate issue. It is not enough to translate the original words to their most accurate counterparts, you have to convey the intention behind the words. Are you a native chinese speaker?

A game having a bad translation in your language is a valid concern, and not “stupid shit”.

Streamers will not give you good user feedback. They are not playing the game for themselves, they are playing for an audience.

It is very good that you think about validating your expections early in the process. That way you still have time to change the direction of your game if you need to. I think the best way would be to release the demo to a smaller audience, like itch.io.

Anyway, good luck with your game.

Interesting. I have only played the “newer” Personas, like 4 and 5.

So … never.

Say what? Prey has a VR mode? I did not see anything about that on the Steam page

I need to know from which game that screenshot is.

For research.

Added to my wish list

What specifically has gotten worse in the last years?

This screenshot is also slightly misleading since the color scheme suggests that 5 out of 5 games run better on SteamOS then on Windows. But if you check the numbers it is only 4 out of 5 games.
