No, but kids under 16 are hooked into the content drip on their favorite social media. This significantly impacts the drip, a big part of online gaming is sharing what you have or have done through YouTube, TikTok, etc.

Everybody wants to be a content creator. Nobody wants to be a content creator in default skins.

Devil May Cry comes to mind, as well. If I’m not mistaken that game was entirely developed with Western audiences as the target demographic.

Idk, the game is great and I distinctly remember people crying about stuff like this with DD2.

I’ll tell you what I said then. I was not tempted to buy any MTX in MH Wilds until I started reading the comments of people crying about it.

This is a basic fucking character creator we’re talking about. If you’re so spastic that you need to change your characters model every day, we have very different reasons for playing video games.

Let me put it this way. This is Monster Hunter. Why the fuck does your character looking a certain way mean so much to you? If it does mean so much, make a new character - the game hasn’t even been out for 3 days. These problems are literally non-issues.

Edit: The game is gorgeous for me, I’m not surprised older builds are struggling. I didn’t mean to be a dick about it.

Fair enough

But NBA Jam is a game, not a bundle of perverse incentives disguised as a game.

Idk, I very rarely ever see a 10/10 on Steam. Gonna go ahead and trust the hype on this one.

Why… why am I in this meme?

Let games die

I remember Dark Athena being fun, but know for a fact Escape from Butcher Bay was fun.

Hitler My Friend is a 99 cent game on Steam with an 8/10 positive rating.

A 3D shooter that will change your ideas about alternative history! In this game you will climb into the boots of the unforeseen Adolf Hitler.

There’s more, but I’m not sifting through more dog shit. This is a good thing.

Ghosts of Sushi Mama is basically Assassins Creed in Japan.

All I have to say is that I sincerely doubt that From Software and MiHoYo were looking at H:ZD when they made their very successful open world games. That’s my only point, you are allowed to have your opinions about H:ZD - I’m not saying that you’re wrong.

BotW completely changed the open world landscape. Yes it was a bad Zelda game, it was by no means a mediocre game. That first experience is fucking magical, and has been recreated to great effect in Elden Ring and Genshin Impact (I shouldn’t need to point out how popular both of those games are).

You can dislike that it was a bad Zelda game. Calling it mediocre is just patently false. Granted, yes - I’ve called the game ‘Horizon: Zero Awards’ because it definitely should have won at least something. However, it was not more impactful than BotW.

No, I’m not the one struggling to remember what I’ve said. That’s you lil’ guy, in case you were confused - I’d imagine you are.

Ah, I see - the moment the words leave your flappy flesh bits you forget them. I get it, it’s hard being a goldfish. I’ll give you a pass this time.

What was that? Canadian throwing stones in glass houses? Couldn’t be!

No, it’s because you’re chronically online.

Just beat the game.

God damn it’s good. The only way I knew about it was because I was checking Steam new releases. Please god understand that this would have sold with better advertising.
