You could also buy cheaper ‘lesser’ parts if you’re not interested in playing the top of the top new games. I basically only play league, ff14 and indie games. My 12 year old laptop can run everything I play still with no problem (I know cause I take it to my girlfriend when I stay over), granted I do have a pretty nice pc now a days.
This might be a shit complaint on my part because these games are specifically for those type of people but I’m playing ff14 atm and they fuggin make me go across the world to talk to someone through a cut scene then make me go across the world again to rinse and repeat and that’s the game. I understand repetition is to be expected in mmo questing, I played wow for 17 years but at least for wow there’s some actual world exploration to be done to some degree and it isn’t usually forcing you to cross the world constantly. Ff14 doesn’t even have proper world exploration, they have teleport stones everywhere so you don’t truly get to see what’s up beyond following the quest lines. Glam, posing and rp saves that game.
Buying forced diversity bug studio shlop you mean. Plenty of tiny diverse indie games that do well for themselves out there.
God I hate cinematic trailers for unreleased games. It’s fine if it’s a released game that I can just Google gameplay.
I’ve been hearing the dislike for the name but I personally like it for a fighting game. Sorta reminiscent of Japanese fighting games that can have crazy names for sequals.
It also has a couple of good shortenings for players. They could call it xko or 2ko. Much like how people just call league of legends, league or lol. Granted I don’t actually play fighting games but that’s just my opinion.
Holy shit dude. Even with a guide I also couldn’t find it. Even playing multi-player with my buddy who already found him previously and knew were he was we still struggled to find him with a guide.
I get what you’re saying about devs needing income but devs already got paid for making the game. All revenue after goes to executives who had little to nothing to do with making the game and I know some people could argue that if the company doesn’t make money then the devs will be out of a job but that’s a BS propaganda argument. Even when games make record profits teams get let go. Fuck blizzard.
I find that to be a good thing. The less centralized institutions that can control what we do the better. I say that while social media is the biggest it’s ever been.
They’re making the same argument people make about music. There’s plenty of good music out there of all genres. Radio just doesn’t play it and you have to go out of your way to find what you like.
I’m thinking he was probably selling saves with all the Pokémon plus all the Pokémon in shiny and a complete story. I did this with every single Pokémon game prior to switch and put them all on my Pokémon home when they were discontinuing pokebank, but only the ones that are able to be caught legit that way.
I might have to look for that, I played it right before it got shut down, my download opened and I was able to do a min or two of the tutorial but then it just kept crashing. Then a couple weeks later I saw the announcement that it was shutting down.
I tried playing the old one years ago and it didn’t even run.
There’s always a niche. Nobody thought anyone would care enough to watch them play video games badly but here we are. Really if you set a cam in your league and have half funny commentators who know their stuff people would watch.
Look at speed running too, it’s even more niche than just playing games and it gets millions of dollars a year too.
It’s not because of the porn but because of the taboo. You’re not supposed to be seeing porn on twitch so her pushing the envelope appeals to a bunch of people.
Yep 100 percent agree.
When I say they can do whatever they want, I mean it in the ‘they literally could just follow all those rules and regulations to just allow porn on there if they wanted to’ sense. There’s nothing stopping them from doing it besides money and the fact they’re allowing what they currently do means money is winning.
There’s nothing cruel or illegal on what’s currently going on with twitch but I get what you’re trying to say. I’m just tired of people forcing their views on me because of their kids. Mind you, I don’t hate kids.
There’s a handful of prominent streamers pushing the softcore meta hard but as a whole I agree with you. The people complaining about the children need to understand it’s a private company and they can do whatever they want, if parents don’t want their kids seeing that stuff then they should moderate them better instead of trying to push the responsibility of raising their kids onto others.
Bad launch is giving then the benefit of the doubt which they don’t deserve. They intentionally launched an incomplete game so they could make the money now and look good for investors, and then just fix it post launch while also giving out ‘free’ updates that should have just been all there on launch.
Mind you I’m not complaining about the actual developers, it’s always the executives who are to blame when this happens.
People need to vote with their wallets, if they stopped pre ordering and buying buggy messes at launch companies would be incentivised to actually release fully working/fully developed games.
Also the whole background of how the devs and play testers were treated is horrendous.
Watching gamers back peddle on cyberpunk hurts my soul. Just because the game is good now doesn’t excuse the bullshit they pulled on launch but peope just excuse it because it’s good now, they get what they deserve.
That’s still better than consoles can run most native games too lul. People always use the argument that consoles ‘just work’ at max graphics as a selling point when it’s rarely the case. Almost every new game has issues on release that need to be fixed and even after some never run at max.
