I bought the full collection last year for like $50. $20 for the first three and all DLC, and like $30 for the complete Borderlands 3 (I had gotten the other ones so decided to just get the full series).
Then I actually went and got Wonderlands and had an actual blast playing it.
Another AAA game I want planning to play getting delayed doesn’t say anything about the games industry. Haven’t been excited about a AAA game in many years now. Everything is a bland cookie cutter sequel, remaster, or battle pass loot box multiplayer arena thingy.
Yeah, I do. A bunch of consolidations is AAA companies have left us steps away from a monopoly on publishers. Given the lack of competition, these big companies have gotten lazy and keep releasing the same shit over and over, some of it ripoffs, some of it remasters. People are getting fed up with it and their easy cash cows are now less profitable than they were.
Instead of changing their plans, they’re firing people. Because the only ones in charge are MBAs, not people who know what their products even are.
AAA games have been boring and bland for quite some time. I got a Steam Deck and mainly play indie games and older titles. I couldn’t care less about GTA 6 or new consoles. There’s such a huge catalog of games on Steam to play.
The more I read about Nintendo, the more genuine dislike I get for them. The only thing I read, hear and see are negative bullshit for some petty reason they’ve.
I hate how such a shit company holds so many good nostalgic games. Truly hoping for a quick hack on the Switch 2 and a PC emulation (and I hope truly, hope that Palworld wins the whole fiasco).
My computer’s specs are just under the minimum for new games released these days. It will probably be able to handle Skyblivion, but almost definitely not the remake. So that’s the one that has my attention
Everyone is a little in the wrong, I think. But Argo is one of the good guys, and for me one of the biggest takeaways I was left with after deep diving onto this whole mess is a deep sadness over the friendship between Kurvitz and Argo falling apart.
Did you try any mods that remove some of the limiter features? For example I played with encumbrance set to zero and all vendors with gold to sell you. Both were huge QoL improvements.
I would maybe suggest modding your defence to a high level, unlocking defence perks, and spamming block. The combat certainly becomes more manageable as you level up, unless you’re simply fighting a group of people by yourself. Then it never gets easier.
Yes, not every game needs to appeal to everyone - the problem is that big publishers are always aiming for the lowest common denominator, that’s why we end up with many bland and similar games
On the one hand, I can kinda get it. It must really suck to lose to a self-servicing corpo ad-a-palooza, even one as well crafted as Astrobot. It’s like losing a collectible contest to FunkoPops, just clear feelsbad.
On the other, fuck this guy for dragging nationalistic pride into a dumbass award ceremony. The Geoff-fest is always a stupid corporate cockgag that celebrates publisher money more than developers, taking it personally and trying to pretend like all of China was snubbed only serves to makes BMW look worse.
I don’t feel it was undeserved, it’s good that super productions lose to better crafted titles, maybe one day actual indie games will be on the contest for game of the gear
probably the only thing that’ll bring me back to professional game dev. especially cool to see after how brutal of a year it’s been for the industry. hope this works out for them!!
