If this were any other company people would be raging
If this were any other company, I’d be saying the same thing. Nintendo shuts down shit left and right; most of them are mods for games that the only way to use the mods is via emulation. And it’s a lot easier to pirate a game for that than it is to dump one you own legitimately.
It’s certainly within their right to protect their shit. The ethics and morality of what that shit happens to be is irrelevant to the copyright discussion.
Also: TF2 is still supported… It still receives regular updates. It had one on the 9th.
Factorio (actually not sure what the MP limit is without mods; but I know there’s a mod that makes it infinite due to seeing the Spiffing Brit playing with like 300 people at once).
EVE Online (the bigger your group the stronger you’d be. Get 100 of 'em; start your own corporation)
Actually while thinking about what supports more than 4 it’s mostly creative games and MMORPGs (that know of). Damn near everything centers on groups of just 3-4 with the exception of the 5v5 competitive shooters.
Seeing the down votes I have to say this: He has a point here. TF2 is a F2P game that generates its revenue these days from marketplace and key transactions. If someone were to remake the entire game and it was allowed to release, it would most assuredly damage TF2’s revenue. A mod for Portal 2 has more potential to generate revenue because anyone interested in the mod that doesn’t currently own Portal 2, would have to buy the game.
At the end of the day, Valve is still a business. This news sucks for people who love playing games, but is entirely not unexpected.
Don’t even need the hardware anymore. The Android app is really good on its own. I can even play games while not on my own home network with minimal lag so long as I am on 5G or wifi. I use it to play a few rounds of Civilization when waiting at the doctor.
Fucked if I’ll ever beat Nethack without wizard mode.
Death Stranding is another, though for a completely different reason. I know there’s some super cool fun shit somewhere in there; but getting through the first few hours of the game to get to that point is so boring I always end up putting it down before getting to anything worthwhile. And that’s with actually thinking the walking system is pretty kick ass.
Looking at those low reviews from the Play Store the most common complaint is poor controls and difficulty selecting exactly what you want with the touch screen.
I started up Cult of the Lamb more seriously. I had it at launch, but it didn’t hold my attention between Hades for the roguelite action and RimWorld for the colony stuff.
But I’m currently bored of those two, so I’m playing this. Shit was getting frustrating with the gains for going and doing the dungeons… Until I learned that I wasnt actually cooking all my fish and had tons of fish meant to be sold. Money solved literally all my problems. Just like it would in real life 😭
