Lawbreakers came out ~7 years ago and it was too late to get in on the genre then.

The character roster for this game looks so generic and boring.

https://dotesports.com/concord/news/all-concord-characters-every-freerunner-weapon-ability-and-crew-bonus

You have the choice of:

-Cylindrical yellow robot (arguably this is the most original and interesting design) -Woman with puffy sleeves -Woman with box on head -Man with goggles and winter jacket -Old Woman -Woman with pauldrons -Generic Woman -Green woman with ears -Man with hat -Pink robot -Mushroom -Green man with shit on arms -Woman with sphere on head -Blue and Red man -Generic Man -Generic Woman 2

Like, I’ve hardly played overwatch but at least I can tell from afar what most of the characters do from looking at them. Clearly, in overwatch, Giant knight with hammer is a melee tank, clearly the ninja guy with the sword is mobile and and has some melee ability, clearly the lady with the sniper rifle is a sniper, clearly the angel is a healer, clearly, the lady with the jetpack can fly and is support, etc.

Applying this logic to concord, the BEST I can guess is that Woman with pauldrons is a tank, otherwise the design is so ass, I really can’t even tell.

Get a design department and/or let them do their job Sony.

if your point is “No one wants a digital console”, then no, you are wrong.

Nothing of the sort, it was a legitimate question in which I didn’t intend to make a statement out of subtext.

Thanks for answering it.

What the fuck is the selling point? Less features for a color??

Yeahhhhh, I don’t want a company which itself previously settled for a hundred million dollars in a gender discrimination suit to have every persons intimate personal data.

I think both of you are in more agreement than opposition.

No, but arguably anyone driving a car is.

There is no listing in the source for Xbox Series, however Gamecube shows 80 exclusive titles.

The source notes that for Mac there have been 2 exclusive games across all versions, and for Windows, there have been about 2560 across all versions. There doesn’t appear to be a listing for Linux unfortunately.

It depends on how the source categorized the information and how Microsoft classifies the Xbox One versus the Xbox One Series (whether as being two actual different consoles, or two versions of the same console.)

There is only one entry for anything related to Xbox One as far as I can see so I expect the 12 it notes are distributed across all versions of the Xbox One, or that there are 0 dedicated games for the Xbox One Series proper.

I just referenced the data in the wikipedia container article here for some select consoles.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category%3ASingle-platform_video_games?wprov=sfla1

Here are the trends with previous consoles:

PS1 : 455 -> PS2 : 512 -> PS3 : 180 -> PS4 : 58 -> PS5 : 15

Xbox : 106 -> Xbox 360 : 214 -> Xbox One : 12

Nintendo 64 : 129 -> Nintendo Wii : 328 -> Nintendo Wii U : 38 -> Nintendo Switch : 174

That is strange for sure.

That is the hackiest workaround I’ve ever heard lol but I will give it a shot, thanks.

It seemed a lot faster for me prior to this latest update, but they were never superb. Here’s hoping either the mods can be fixed or bethesda can get their shit together.

They actually made the load time worse with their update. Not by a little, by a fucking tonne. Going from any interior to outside now takes like a full minute and 30 seconds, its ridiculous.

No worries. The cost here is disk space as GAMMA is built on top of the free Anomaly game. In total, it looks like its costing me 89.3 GB of storage on an NVME, and they do recommend an SSD at least for the games (that total includes S.T.A.L.K.E.R Anomaly, and GAMMA).

Anomaly can be obtained here https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly, and I believe you can get GAMMA from this discord https://discord.com/invite/stalker-gamma.

Follow the install instructions on the GAMMA discord when it comes to both Anomaly and GAMMA, they are pretty straight forward, and they have free support!

I think you would be impressed by the AI, it is some of the best enemy AI I have ever experienced. They peek corners just like a player would. The other day when I was playing, an enemy peeked a corner in front of me, shot me and immediately went back behind the corner. I walked into the building that they had peeked around and looked out of a window to see if I could spot them. The AI had backed up behind cover and was holding the corner they had peeked, not moving at all.

Never seen AI that smart in any game in my life, if I had walked around that corner, I would have been dead!

While the game is unforgiving and there is a fairly steep learning curve, it is one of the most incredible games I have played in my life, again, for free!

Let me know how it goes if you give it a shot :)

Single player, but stalker Gamma scratches that same itch for me better than tarkov ever could and its completely free.

Marx’s theory of alienation rings a bell:

They already fucked me on this years ago. One day I logged into Uplay and Battlefield 3 and my 2 other games were just fucking gone. Haven’t touched them with a 10 foot pole since.
