Neat idea, wonder if you’re tempting fate copyright wise. Definitely get that old lady from the bathtub scene in there.

Aggravationstation,

Prioritising industry over whimsy causes Jill to be a boring girl.

“I like to preorder my groceries. I know they’re going to have what I want, they always do, but I just give them a few hundred in advance to make sure they’ll still have some when I get there.”

Same logic.

Nurgus,

Let me introduce you to the concept of a supermarket Christmas savings club. You basically pre-order Christmas groceries with them.

Of course the joke is that, when pre-ordering games, they don’t usually deliver what they promise. With pre-ordering Christmas groceries, Tesco will.

Nurgus,

Tesco probably will but plenty of Christmas club companies have gone bust and left people without their order. Even companies as big as Tesco can get in a mess, it’s not like they hold the stock for you in advance.

I “pre-ordered” Mass Effect Andromeda like 10 min before the real release, since pre-orders got a discount and the offer was still active.

Lightor,

This is the way.

I usually pre order a day before IF there have been reviews and such. At that point I still have plenty of time for a steam refund and the reviews have given me some level of confidence.

The only games I preorder are Zelda and Square’s 2D-HD CE titles. Both have been 10/10 for me in all modern era releases.

Notyou,

I pre-ordered TotK from GameStop so I could get a sleeve and a wooden Zelda board thing.

What I was originally sold on made sense: physical games sometimes have shortages and if you want to avoid that you can pay up front to reserve a copy. I pre ordered Skyrim and it shipped to me almost a week after all my friends got theirs who didn’t preorder. The physical copy of Skyrim was meaningless since it was tied to steam anyway. That was my first and last experience with preordering

I pre-ordered one (1) game ever and that was Watch_Dogs in 2013 for the PS3. Was enough to teach me to never do that again

Lightor,

Aww poor watch dogs, I saw your potential.

Realized pre orders were a scam in 99 when I pre-ordered ff8 from Toys r us and when I went to pick it up they told me they don’t have any copies left

Karyoplasma,

My Diablo 3 was your FF8. Also D3 sucked ass.

I’ve heard some devs say that graphics are more related to marketing than gameplay. Games with good graphics get more clicks.

This bug has been around for a while. It’s apparently reliably repeatable if you know how to manipulate it, but I haven’t looked into it too much myself. For context, I’ve been playing Phas on and off since 2020.

I think it‘s amazing that we can be like „ok but is this scary or buggy?“ lol

Some games have a better story and visuals that movies these days… Watching playthroughs is at times more interesting than watching series.

DJDarren,

I watched a 4K play through of Hellblade 2 a couple of months back. Played and loved the original after my wife played it and loved it. She played the second one and said that while the story was good and it’s very pretty, it was kinda dull to play.

So yeah, I watched someone else playing it, and yeah, the story and visuals were great.

Some games don’t even need a story. Apex and League of Legends for instance.

RedAggroBest,

I feel that’s almost unfair to LoL. Shitshow of a game it may be, the lore is actually pretty fantastic. It’s also got nothing to do with the game itself which is why I’m waiting on that MMO.

positiveWHAT,

An MMO seems a much better fit for the lore indeed!

dwindling7373,

No, a thousand times no. MMO are static loopy deathtraps. Nothing can ever change or evolve, everything is dead and storytelling is bland and impossible to focus on.

But ot be fair I hate them with a passion…

positiveWHAT,

That is also true, and why I don’t play MMOs.

This is my favorite game like ever. Top ten at least. I love seeing that this is your comfort food of gaming 🥰
