Like idk, when overwatch came out, it was an absolute blast. I wasn't looking forward to it at all, i didn't care for it a bit until i played it. It just got run into the ground slowly. Also they made team fortress 2 way WAY before, and yeah that's what they excites them.
Was it really that good? I heard it was overwatch from wish when it launched but then got better. I never tried it, because i didn't wanna learn something new.
You would think that when a company like Microsoft is catching so much shit, a company like sony would think it's a good move to do something good to look even better. But somehow they see it as a challange to be even worse somehow
They are used to playstation players who buy a console for twice the price it's worth through discord bots. I don't think they even know what a backlash is
It's probably a bit of this and a bit of that. I mean the game went from one of the best revied games to one of the worst in a day. There were refunds and a drop in players all at the same time.
I still think the biggest reason why they wanted to push their shitty platform is to artificially push player numbers. "Look how many people use our scam network, see?"
Now the hilarious part is that hopefully someone has to explain why people go these lengths, just to not join their shitty service.
If they truly go through that for the promotion, then they are idiots and deserve all the hate. Video games don't blow up because there is a commercial on time square that costs a million dollars, games blow up because they are good and people/youtubers and (yuck) influencers talk about it
Sony brought out a console that was almost impossible to buy and has no games. Now they try to inflate their numbers by forcing people to make psn accounts. Fuck them. Not that i ever planned to buy a playstation, but i make sure to stay away from everything sony related
It's obviously pc for me because that's pretty much all i use for 30 years. But i always liked the nes because it's pretty satisfying to put in a cartridge and pushing it down.
Hello, I guess everyone knows the current state of AAA games in general, so I am looking into other game markets. I have looked into indie games , but while I do like it, I feel the budgetary constraints and dvelopment limitations are a limit to indie games....
Helldivers is legitimately the best game i have played in the past few years. Deep rock galactic is great too and pretty similar. If you like rogue like fps with amazing movement and game feel, crab champions is fantastic. Blasphemous is also a very fun game that is like 75% off
Apologies for being late on this. It completely slipped my mind! I drove across the country to continue moving stuff up north over the weekend, and just lost track of time I suppose. The threads here now! Expect another one on Sunday. ❤️
I had to stop myself from playing, because i was waiting for an update. Also, there is a multiplayer mod and it's the most chaotic clusterfuck i have ever seen. It's great.
I grinded crab champions super hard to get diamond rank. This game is just too much fun. I pucked up scrap mechanic again after playing it for 1 haur a few years ago. So far we both enjoy it quite a bit.
If i had people to play with i would probably play it a lot. My friend group was only invested in the game for like 6-10 hours during covid and imo we had a hell of a time just hanging out trying things.
But what are his thoughts about over promising a game and releasing it in an absolutely laughable state and then sell a dlc after almost fixing said game years later?

They try to make balantro a 18+ game because it resembles a card game. Meanwhile fifa is for 3+ year old and it's just a card oprning game where they fish money from some sad football fans and children. I have no faith in anyone in charge of that
I remember playing a soccer game on the n64 on a friends house. His mom came in and did some Smalltalk. She asked who was winning. We pointed at the guy who was winning. She said: no, the football game.
We were a bit confused until we realised that she thought it's a real game that we were watching on tv. I saw how her mind was blown in real time. On my way home, i thought that it makes sense, because the games these days look so real. In hindsight tho, what the fuck
The meme makes it seem like it was a dumb gimmick for 9 year olds. I still think it's one of the coolest things ever. I wish i would've appreciated more at the time, but i was busy mashing buttons instead of reading dialogues.
From what i saw, the gameplay looks kinda fun and the story isn't cringe and alright. But man, i wouldn't rate a game that high that has 3 enemies and 3 different missions. Apparently the boss fights are even more of a joke. So it's just game journalism
But how long do you wanna fight the same 2 or 3 enemies and do e different missions, of which most seem to be escort missions. The gameplay can't ve that fun. And it's a 70 dollar game
I was just talking to my friend about this when we played yesterday. She is level 34 and i'm level 38, other than that our stats are identical, same efficiency level and all. She captured the level 38 mammoth boss thing with 2% capture rate. I can't capture anything anymore that is above level 25ish with the best spheres you can make. It's quite annoying
I watched a trailer and gameplay and some interviews for the first time yesterday and it's such a bummer vecause some of the ideas that they have are really interesting, and i think the game could have some potential, if you are into the kind of looter shooter thing. But i have very little hope for the game. Little to no
In a bad-vibes moment, they’re denying a huge outlet like IGN a review code. No matter what I think of IGN in particular (nothing good tbh), that’s not something I can find a real explanation for other than “We made DC’s Gollum and want to avoid bad press as long as we can”.
