Which is pretty fucked up logic.

It’s like being handed a MP3 player but being told you’ll go to jail for playing music you ripped yourself.

Edit: it was due to feature creep

Understandable.

Most of the third-party titles are yesterday’s games, as already mentioned, and the newer ones are still in development. Meaning, Nintendo’s games are pretty much doing all the heavy lifting. And given the price versus buying power ratio for some games, the launch comes off as a bit mid, to say the least.

Hopefully things will improve in the future.

Game cards seem like a tone-deaf attempt to appeal to those who just want a physical copy.

Same. I tried looking through it and was extremely confused by what I was reading.

And I literately just started using them for Daggerfall. Really frustrating.

They say ownership has changed hands but that it isn’t a corporate “exit”. The whole announcement is extremely vague on the details with the only names given are two people.

It’s really convoluted and, in this case, not really the fault the developers. Microsoft presents everyone with a high-end console, the Series X, but studios like CD Projekt Red can’t make use of its full potential because they’re forced to target the lower-end Series S first.

It’s their headline, not mine.

Oh, FFS. I can’t pretend to know what will or won’t piss you guys off.

And this is what makes it convoluted.

However, every game on Xbox Series X also has to work on Series S, meaning every game is sort of chained to the limitations of that console to a degree. With that said, some developers have voiced frustrations with developing for the Xbox Series S and it was even reportedly an issue when bringing Black Myth: Wukong to Xbox.

My inbox was filled with three people complaining about the title.

tonytins, 25 dni temu

I didn’t need to be reminded about it three freakin’ times.

tonytins, 25 dni temu

I feel sorry the developers.

Note to self: don’t post Xbox articles next time.

This is not the first time I’ve been asked about headlines. So, yeah, it can get midly frustrating.

Small, yes, but it’s not like I’m not expecting it. As someone who did not write the article, I have no idea what I should replace it with that would sound better and meet everyone’s expectations.

If Microsoft continues to make exceptions, then they might as well not even have the stupid rule.

A minute ago you agreed with my statement.

tonytins, 25 dni temu

Yes. I feel sorry for the developers. This requirement by Microsoft is ridiculous.

Uh, huh… Glad we agree. Though, I’m still gonna take this statement with a grain salt now.

I tried to make similar points in regards of it being too early in the console’s lifespan.

While that is true, “political” has been co-opted to dismiss legit issues so those in, ya’ know, politics can ignore the people. It’s really frustrating.

Fantasy is filled to the brim with politics.
