It’s even worse. All the people who defend the physical editions do it because when servers close, they can still play the game. A game key card is just a glorified digital release. When the servers close, you’ll have a piece of plastic.

Donnie Dementia at it again. Although it’s hard to say this is dementia kicking in or just him thinking (correctly) that his voters are so absolutely moronic that they will believe him.

Get a steam deck, dive into the indie world and forget about all those issues.

Games at 80$ only affect you if you buy them. There are tons of games under 30 that are good enough to keep you playing without making you poor.

It’s been years that I’ve been saying that europe and america fucked up big time with EVs. I am a middle class person who wants to buy an electric car. What are my alternatives? Either a +40k € car from the traditional brands that offers me the bare minimum in battery capacity or a BYD that costs under 30k offering me something acceptable. Now, why should I not pick up byd? Because it’s chinese? Well, don’t want me to buy chinese? Then fucking make a car people can afford?

In europe, for an electric car of a non chinese brand it’s either 40k for the bare minimum, or +60k for the luxury segment that I can’t afford anyway.

So pussies.

Then let’s keep working until he drops to 0% of his current wealth!

Well, you know, it depends. The person you are encouraging is planning to kill thousands or even millions directly or indirectly with their politics?

Because there could be a difference between an anonymous person and a potential mass murderer.

See? Bullying fascism works. It’s the only thing that works. Fascism is fought with violence (physical or otherwise) as it’s the only language that it understands.

When an opponent doesn’t care about rules, playing by those rules only puts you at disadvantage.

Now listen, there are offences and offences. I’m fine if you like a different sports, team, but pineapple on pizza? There are things one can’t forgive.

Considering the amount of people that either voted trump or not voted at all, I’d say that there’s a portion of americans lying.

They what!?

How can they end such a nice initiative? What was the problem with secret santa?

Why are you so pissed about egg price, americans? Just… don’t buy them!

Apparently we’re not oppressing them enough.

Well, you are assuming a lot of things I haven’t said there.

First of all, I said that in the AAA world, original games are rare. They exist, but they are rare. And there’s a reason: an AAA game is made by a company that has a stakeholders board deciding what has to be done and what not (which is the reason why people say BG3 is not an AAA game but an indie). Since those boards want their money and only that, they don’t care about innovation or anything else.

This doesn’t mean that AAA companies don’t make original games, it only means that they rarely experiment and tend to focus on already succesful formulas.

Second, I never said that AAA games are just “big games I don’t like”. As I said, sometimes they do good games. But seriously, how many times have you seen an AAA company take a serious risk in what they do?

Also, I don’t think it’s just the usual three. I think GTA is doing the same. What are they gonna do with 6? Just GTA V but bigger. That’s exactly what I mean when I say that they don’t innovate.

For the record, an AAA game is a game with a big budget from a big studio. I think everyone can agree that an Assassin’s Creed is an AAA game while shovel knight isn’t.

I agree with the sentiment. People think that non 3d graphics should be cheap because they don’t understand the amount of work that can go behind them.

Take chained echoes or sea of stars, two modern pixel jrpgs with “premium” prices. If someone thinks those games shouldn’t cost their full price, they are out of their minds.

Same with shovel knight. I bought the treasure trove and the amount of fun it has give to me puts so many 80€ games to shame.

That’s the problem with many modern AAA games. They lack innovation. Since they only look to maximize profits, they stick to reliable formulas that are known to be profitable.

This is the reason why I only play indies nowadays. How many AAA studios have new ideas? Sure, we see, every now and then, a new game that really feels new, but they are rare. Meanwhile, the indie sphere cooks new things constantly. Sure, not all are pretty or good or polished, but at least they try new things!

Well deserved.

Because I think they shouldn’t call for violence against ketamine karen?

Absolutely not! It’s simply because if you are still on that shithole of a site after all we’ve seen, you got it coming.

They learnt nothing from the twitter renaming, didn’t they?

We’re gonna have so much fun triggering Magastanis by calling it gulf of mexico
