I’m not saying don’t try it, because some people do like it, but I don’t think Starfield will ever be worth the time it takes to play, let alone having to pay for it too. It absolutely does not respect the player’s time, and there’s no content in it that I saw that’s worth playing. I didn’t see anything when I played, but I think I’ve seen just about everything after watching a stupid number of videos discussing the game. None of it is particularly interesting (in fact, I think most of it is fundamentally uninteresting because they weren’t willing to ask how their universe could be different from our own).
BG3 though is absolutely worth playing whenever you decide to play it. I don’t think it’s getting a DLC because Larian said they’re working on something new and unrelated now, but it’ll probably still see some patches and the price will come down, as well as more mods being available.
I recently bought the OG Dragon’s Dogma for $6. There are a ton of QoL and fun mods that improve gameplay, no DRM crap, and the game performs really well overall. Zero reasons IMO to buy DD2 right now and put up with an inferior experience and Denuvo.
Op is just doing the outrage culture thing that has taken over lemmy, basically won’t be happy unless they remove every single micro transaction (that you 100% don’t need and isn’t the intended experience)
Nah it’s everywhere, Lemmy is not special in that regard. Gaming culture in general has a large amount of people who just hate shit, regardless of whether it deserves it or not. Just ask anyone who plays an MMORPG
Lately I bought a lot of AAA Games from the past couple year’s for 12€ up to 20€. It is such a better experience. They work (almost bug free) and you get 30+ Hours out of them on the first run. And when you only get 10 Hours or so out of them and don’t feel like investing more time into them, I tend to not have the big buyers remorse effect like with games that cost up to 100€ plus 20€ every other month or so for the next DLC/Battle Pass that should just have been an update or part of the main game from the start.
That narrative LEGO thing sounds like a fancy way of saying that it’s a branching story with several outcomes like Detroit: Become Human, but maybe less linear? Which still sounds like a cool approach for a shooter.
I’d do my part in buying games from them more if they didn’t block my home network from their website lol. Yes it’s behind a VPN, and no I’m not turning it off to give up my privacy just to buy something I can get from stores that won’t block me.
I honestly used to buy games from them a lot, but once their website became inaccessible, I sorta forgot about them. Surely I’m not the only one right…?
As a Mexican I always loved visiting GameStop when I was in the USA, there was simply not a good replacement for GameStop here at those times, now there are some, but they barely look like a videogame store (full with merchandising and stuff), and as always Amazon MX has cheaper prices than local stores, hell even it has cheaper prices than Target or GameStop (compared when I was there last time some months ago).
I mean, they're profitable for the first time since 2018. Not least thanks to a huge amount of cost cutting the past two or three years. This is more of that.
That subreddit was simultaneously the funniest and creepiest subreddit I’ve ever visited. It’s hilarious how sure they are that they will all be billionaires but I always got the creeps when thinking about how I was reading the comments from a bunch of people just throwing their life savings down the toilet.
I bought a few thousand dollars because I could and I’m just sitting on it because I’m very curious what’s going to happen. I really believe the float has been locked up for a while and there’s some serious shenanigans going on. I either will strike it rich or at some point throw in the towel and write off the losses on my taxes. But I look back at when everyone wrote off Bitcoin and look at it now.
