So… I noticed over the past few weeks that apparently Somebody had been running “guerilla marketing” and Wuchang was apparently the most important game ever released?
And now it apparently became the center of another culture war?
… What the flip? It looked cool but it very much looked likea “good first try” and the Iron Pineapple video mostly aligns with that.
You mean in 2017 like the article pointed out. And maybe there should have been backlash for it. It was a shitty thing to do then, and an even worse thing to do now
Are hats your main issue with them? I don’t like organised religion but tend to focus on other things than their silly hats even though they are even sillier than MAGA ones.
Motherfucker decided to come out as MAGA on a global stage while journalists and protestors were being shot by rubber bullets and tear gassed just miles away. He was in range of the predator drones flying over head in a US city, and where Marines were illegally deployed to US soil for the first time in hundreds of years.
But nah dog, just ignore all that and play the game, the game that clearly supports all that. Cause focusing on what the dev clearly supports is not allowed for some reason because he wore it on a hat.
“I guess it wasn’t a safe space for autistic people” is an insane takeaway from being temp banned for talking about people fucking their mothers and how people downvoting you arouses you (on a thread about not using a right wing hate symbol).
As an autistic person I’m baffled you’d try to hide behind your neurodivergence here.
Yeah cool not gonna buy it. The day IOI decided to put an elderly abuser and sexual assaulter in their game was the day I stopped buying and playing their games.
I don’t know if I’m just jaded by everything recently but I find it extremely difficult to get excited about game announcements these days until I’ve seen for myself how it plays
There’s so much competition these days, yet somehow his crack team of developers manage to keep him at number one in the list of “Biggest Cunts in Gaming”.
It’s honestly impressive. I had no intention of buying this because I think his games are all wank, but fuck him anyway.
well, that’s a big bummer. AbleGamers has clearly done an outsized amount of advocacy work in the industry, and it’s awesome that we have stuff like the Xbox Adaptive Controller. Way less cool if the entire org was rotten at the top. Some of these incidents make me wonder if Barlet even cared all that much about disabled folks.
The industry still struggles with basic accessibility options in a lot of games - many studios will implement a wide array of accessibility options, but they do the absolute bare minimum for each disability, such that it looks like they are being inclusive to the gamers that don’t actually use those options. Colorblind options are a common culprit. Basic color filters over the entire screen are insufficient for most colorblind gamers.
One wonders if Able Gamers would be tackling issues like this more directly if their founder had his eye on the ball (instead of having his eye on his coworkers’ breasts)
Do you guys think these companies will retroactively raise game prices for older titles?
There’s a couple of Nintendo games that never go on sale that I’ve been waiting on. I have a gift card, so I’m thinking maybe I should snag em now before things get stupid expensive
I don’t think they’ll do that for already-released games, but I wouldn’t put the big 3 (Sony, MS, Nintendon’t) from doing the barest ‘remasters’, and replacing their digital versions of those games with the ‘remasters’.
Ahh, that’s something I didn’t consider. EA did that recently with the Sims 1&2. Something like that at least. I hate that. At the very least, both options should be available.
In the case with the Sims, they didn’t include regional variants of the game, and they also were missing an ikea dlc due to licensing
It’s sad to see so much hate. I wasn’t reading anything about the patch when it came out and I was digging it, then I checked out reddit and it was all negative. I think at least some of it is just from the nerf patch numbers and not how it actually plays. GGG has a lot of credit with me based on how they’ve run poe1 so that might just be my own bias. They’ll turn it around though, and I’m happy to play through the early access ups and downs.
