This is very true. I play less than I used to but I’m still in a very active clan and I still drop money occasionally hun pretty things from the store or DLC items
they have, although some do take AA or AAA batteries but its very uncommon. some especially carbon monixide dectectors have internal batteries that require replacement.
Yeah, as Godort said, some games do come with manuals. The Knights of the Old Republic (the first one) port to the Switch is one example. (Presumably KOTOR II as well.)
In the first Metal Gear Solid there was a character named Psycho Mantis who had a lot of psychic/mind reading gimmicks. One such way of doing so was to input read everything from your controller and blocking all of your attacks. Another way was reading your memory card and talking about the games you play, name dropping them specifically and talking about genres. All of that is really clever on its own but to get around his input reading you had to plug the controller into the second player slot as he wasn’t able to read that “mind”.
In addition to what the other user said, at one point he makes it so only Player 2 can control your character, so you either needed to run to the console to switch your controller port or pick up a second controller if you had one on standby.
He also tries to make you think your console shut off. Old tvs commonly used blue/green/black screens that said the name of the selected input port at the top, like VIDEO 2. This fight had a part where a blue screen came up that said HIDEO 2 at the top, a nod to the creator Hideo Kojima. Many players thought their consoles turned off and tried to reboot them… effectively erasing unsaved data. It only lasted a few seconds though, so most people realized before it was too late.
He also mind controls your companion, but that’s a bit more common to see.
If you wanted everything in the video game to mimic your real life, just go outside. Video games have always existed as an escape, to put ourselves into a situation we’d normally never find ourselves in, to live a life we can’t in the real world. If pretending to be gay for a few hours threatens your sexuality in a way that pretending to be a superhero for a few hours doesn’t threaten your abilities, maybe that says more about your sexuality than it does about the game?
So many non-plumber people who were forced to play as plumber in Super Mario games. So many humans were forced to play as undead and orcs in WoW. Imagine the torture!!!
So considering that starfield got pushed 2 years it’s safe to assume Elder scrolls 6 got pushed at least that as well so 2026/7 for that, a full 15 years after elder scrolls 5
I played ESO at release and had a lot of fun for a bit, now I understand it’s moved to a f2p game with a thousand expansions so I’m super behind and I just don’t feel like catching back up or trying it again as I’m just not into online stuff much anymore
Bit of both, people have less time on average, and its hard to break into the MMO market when its only dominated by giants due to the amount of content required to make a competant mmo.
I concur Buyer should not gain rights to product, so they should not be allowed to profit from it, but they should be able to preserve it, unless the license that you actually buy had a time limitation, but that should be clearly stated when you buy it that you only buy access to it to (at least) X amount of time like you have with online subscriptions.
