Reminds me of this post on Bluesky. These ads were wild at the time, too; even some that predate this era. There was Fear Effect, which was basically marketed entirely on the back of the game featuring lesbians when that was taboo. There was Rayman standing at the urinals with a guy in 9-5 business attire presumably staring at Rayman’s dick. The Neo Geo “You need a pair of these” steel balls “to play one of these” ad. Plus the shockingly racist European white PSP ad; that was a billboard, not a magazine ad, but it had “video game magazine ad energy”, in this case with “(negative)” at the end of it.
I’m interested and invested in the fish ranking now as well, please do.
I cant’ do zombie games anymore, so I was happy with only watching the tv adaptation. But your screenshots show the amout of attention to detail and care that went into buiding this world, the atmosphere looks phenomenal, I might watch someone else do a playthrough.
It’s frustrating because I feel like my skills are actually still improving and better than they used to be but there’s always some 11 yo kid who will absolutely wreck me over and over again to the point where I just quit out of shame.
Honestly, as long as you’re still having fun and enjoying game, I don’t see an issue here. Sure, in some areas it might have gotten difficult, but if you’re able to adjust
I don’t really understand this sentiment. Cheap games are cheap games. Not even steam lets you ‘own’ your gaming library. More game market competition is good not bad.
I use Steam only for games purchased from Steam and Heroic for Epic, GOG, etc…
Heroic makes it much easier to manage games. Custom prefixes for each game with winetricks, mangohud checkbox, environment variables and so on. If the interface was better/modern with some sort of tabbed layout, I would use it for my Steam games as well.
