I completely avoided all of the romance and loved the game because it’s a fantastic game.

I think it’s cool that it’s there for people that enjoy it though.

I don’t use their launcher at all.

It’s kind of a convoluted process but you can definitely download every game you own through gog without it.

It’s been happening for over 20 years

I’m just saying I LITERALLY PLAYED it during that whole time so it LITERALLY wasn’t UNPLAYABLE.

🤡

😂

I played 100+ hours on Xbox before that was patched and never had a problem so “literally unplayable” is really a bit much.

Fuck that. It’s absolutely guaranteed now that I’ll never buy that base game and there is zero chance that I’m the only one.

I bet they’re all shitty mobile games.

I wish articles were still just articles… I don’t want to read an ad for a stupid podcast that I won’t listen to or YouTube video I won’t watch.

The article has the answers.

Even worse, it’s a video

I think it’s really more about the extensive Proton compatibility testing.

Right on.

I can appreciate that perspective.

There’s just no way on earth I could imagine it flopping at this point even if I personally didn’t think I’d like it so it makes sense to me.

Cocoon is fucking great for sure. I do wish it were longer though.

There’s lots of great games that are short.

The problem is that those games aren’t great because they’re short.

The vast majority of them could be vastly improved by being longer.

Zero chance at all in my opinion.

They could shit the bed completely on it and still sell millions of copies.

I’ve been a fan since the original late 90s top down version and there’s no way I’d miss it.

They won’t shit the bed though. It’s going to be fucking amazing.

I’ve never experienced being bombarded with texts and calls in GTAO on Xbox…

Those fucking flying motorcycle things and flying Deloreans are annoying as hell though.

Same… 2 clans actually because eventually one collapsed and the remaining members were absorbed into another clan we’d been friends with…

Which is crazy considering we can still run 1.6

Man… I miss SWG sometimes.

My Steam avatar is still to the day my SWG character.

It’s the only MMORPG I ever paid a monthly subscription to play.

My problem with it was the 3rd graders calling everything “cap” because they’re stupid fucking kids.

It’s a pretty fun game otherwise.

I manage to still entertain myself with it.

I’ll let them chase my armored car that they need to hit with 5 missiles all over and bait them into parking garages and shit where they’re super easy to kill… Just pisses them off more.

Some asshole chases me all around the map shooting rockets at me over and over again from a fucking flying motorcycle monstrosity.

And I’m not going to buy a Playstation just to play The Last of Us, Spiderman, Detroit: Become Human or any of the other games Sony refuses to sell Xbox users.

I’d love to play those games but Sony just doesn’t want my money.

I’m not going to whine about it either though.

Or Sync, or Boost…

I feel like it generates interest and helps the medium gain more mainstream acceptance at a minimum.

I own a Series X and a 4k TV but I actually use it to game on my older 1080p TV.

I bought the Series X for the disc drive & larger internal storage primarily with the better overall specs and performance just being a bonus.

My account becomes 20 years old in 5 days and I’ve never had an email domain in the account name.

Interesting

You have to choose to display them to begin with… You mean they won’t let you choose not to afterwards?

Apparently I’ve got 6 more days til mine turns 20, as well.

If you still have access to the original email address you can definitely change it.

That’s pretty interesting considering that problems getting co-op working “properly” on Series S is the reason we’ve been given thus far for a lack of XBOX release.

I know it’s been described as a performance and optimization issue since Microsoft demands feature parity between Series X and S but to hear that the mode preventing an XBOX release doesn’t even actually work properly on PS5 is… amusing… And disappointing but mostly amusing.

They’re edible

Fair enough

Sounds like maybe you need a new eye exam… Are you unable to get to 20/20 with corrective lenses?

I have glasses and I game on a 46" TV from about 12 to 14 feet away and I can read most (if not all) in game dialogue…

I did struggle a bit with Pentament but that was part of what helped me realize I needed a new eye exam.

Easy. Get glasses and a bigger TV

13 seems fine to me so far… Just upgraded to it yesterday though so maybe I’m missing something
