Only for a single game? That shit is in almost every multiplayer game I play nowadays. Valorant, Apex Legends, Dead by Daylight…

Ah, you’re right! I failed to grab that context.

Perhaps “you’re right”, “you’re wrong and also short, here’s why”, or even “I don’t know”. These would all be things you could tell them and a better response.

Anecdotally, I feel like there is some survivorship bias going on here. I’ve seen plenty of complaints about Bethesda bugs over the years, but people that are truly bothered by it (me!) have sworn off all their games and thus have no reason to talk about them anymore. The only ones left playing are those that still have some enjoyment/respect for Bethesda games. Cyberpunk felt like more of a “mainstream” hit so it makes sense there was more backlash.

I read a bunch of threads on this and there were a lot of questions about this… so yes, it was a question to many people.

Technically Discord is trying to solve this with their threads feature, but I’ve found either the server owners don’t force it or the users don’t use it. Either way, it sucks.

Apex Legends. The core mechanics and gunplay feel amazing and the highs of BR gameplay made for some of my favourite moments in gaming. I spent over 1500 hours in this game, long after my friends gave up because it’s that good.

And yet I haven’t played it more than a few hours since 2021. Oh, I’ve tried, I even had a 12 hour checkup on it with the old squad a month ago to give it a fair shot. In this session we encountered collision bugs that caused player death, weapon swap bugs, healing selection bugs, inconsistent movement (inb4 “player error rawr grr”, whatever), UI bugs that put us in the wrong gamemode, and probably more that I forgot. Many of these issues have been in the game since season 0, 5 years ago, yet they still pop up every session. Plus, the matchmaking gets worse and worse every season, especially so for solo play. Without fail, our below average, rusty Plat-ranked asses repeatedly got matched against Predator teams with 4k/20 badges to get stomped.

Each nuisance may be small, but compound them together and add years of them not being addressed, and you’ve ruined my favourite game. By focusing solely on the content output instead of the core game, they’ve sacrificed the game’s integrity and I fail to truly enjoy myself any longer. After several years of on and off, I sadly don’t see myself comung back anymore.

Yep, no better way to feel bipolar than to play a 40m game of Valorant.

If Rockstar made a fully-fledged open world Crazy Taxi game with the scale and quality of Red Dead or GTA, that is quite indisputably deserving of the “triple A” label. Putting aside where you draw the line for it to be considered AAA, they clearly mean that their goal is an AAA experience. It’s not that deep.

Not related to the video, sorry, but when sharing links in the future you should strip out unnecessary bits from the URL. This link includes &list=WL&index=1 which means when I open it my Watch Later list is opened alongside it, which is undesired. If you can’t identify what parts to cut out, the easiest way is to use the Share button on the website itself, although this unfortunately can include trackers in the URL. A clean YouTube URL would be a simple watch link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ap1JDDnQIA8.

Easy solution to that: switch VPN.

IIRC 30% was also the standard box store cut. Steam just carried it on.
