I had to stop playing. It was a great game but good lord was it bleak.

That’s not what they meant though. In this case people are paying extra to GET the game 2 days early so they get a head start. I agree with your thoughts though.

I wish this would get pinned to the top of this thread. It really reframes every word he said in the original article. Thanks for digging and sharing.

Picked up Anno 1800 to play with a friend. It’s been really fun so far.

“The game did not have core features that have emerged as requirements to be competitive in today’s hyper aggressive market,” she wrote. “The game was just fundamentally out of touch with emerging player tastes and not aligned with the portfolio strategies of any publishers or investors.”

That is incredibly depressing to read…

I started playing Transport Inc. Now I can’t stop

I’ve been playing Timberborn quite a bit the last few weeks. It’s a pretty good strategy game but is still in early access. Actually now that I think about it, this is the first early access game I’ve ever gotten.

Boy howdy.

Can we get something new instead of another existing IP?

Why do all my favorite IPs get absolute shit games?

That is an absolutely insane headline.

Everything about this game feels like a missed opportunity.

Ah, so THIS was they wanted to get in there.

Yep. Not every game needs to be a huge open world (or in this case galaxy.) Give me tight well written games that are complete on launch, that’s all I’m asking for.

They gonna sue the makers of Stargate too?

How is changing the trial time the start of enshitification? It doesn’t affect the actual service at all.
