I get the impression there is a lot of this bait and switch in the mobile gaming circuit with great game play shown on IG ads but the actual gameplay is nothing like advertised?

Could use it as a recruiting tool the logging industry. It might be safer to play the game though…

I would say now do the Google Play Gift card scam where buyers cannot redeem the cards in Google’s automated systems, and the buyer is not allowed to return the card either so the money is kept by Google forever…

Ford did a nice end run on them eventually. He had to do twice. He never liked investors.

At least initially Dodge released a upgraded Ford for their first vehicle before things really got into the make them different for each year to create a reason for customers to buy a new one to replace their current one mode.

Perhaps my gap is larger as I last played a Sega Genesis console and then a little PC gaming in the mid 2000s for Diablo and NHL, while my GF is still playing a Switch which I often call a Wii when I find it laying around needing to be charged.

She had joy con drift that she was just living with. When I asked her if it affected her after reading an article about it, she showed me game play in the latest Zelda game. I couldn’t not believe the number of load and dialog screens she needed to get through for regular game play. I was bored in the first 30 seconds as she had to keep stopping to get through them. Thankfully I only need to replace/fix her joy sticks and changed out the batteries in the remotes as one of them was pretty swollen.

I don’t think I would be interested in sitting through so many load screens just to play a game these days. That said I still have a Xbox 360 left behind by a friend and a hacked Wii for Sega games sitting in my entertainment center I never play either so perhaps it’s just a closed chapter for me as it is.

That sucks. Funny how the screens creeps in. The actual game play looks great but I suspect the hardware can’t handle it?

I’m glad I’m not alone with this feeling of WTF?
