‘Call of Duty’ Doesn’t Just Depict Bad History—It’s Pro-War Propaganda (progressive.org)

I just started playing COD Black Ops Cold War because I got it through my PlayStation Plus subscription and wanted to try it out. I’ve previously played some others like Modern Warfare (1 and 2) and WWII. While it always felt a bit over the top and propaganda-ish, I really liked it for the blockbuster feeling and just turning...

Call of duryllty games aren’t even good.

Elon Musk demanded a cameo in Cyberpunk 2077 while wielding a 200 year old gun: "I was armed but not dangerous" (www.pcgamer.com)

While Elon’s then-partner Grimes was recording her part in the game as cyborg popstar Lizzy Wizzy, the erratic tech billionaire turned up with an antique firearm to “insist” on being included in the game. “The studio guys were like sweating,” Grimes is quoted as saying. Musk adds “I told them that I was armed but not...

No more using the word dick either guys! Oh wait while we’re on it no more saying anything offensive guys, G rated at all times wouldn’t want to accidentally offend anyone.

arefx,

If someone thinks one is sexist and not the other, they are a moron.

It’s dumb to be offended by either in my opinion.

arefx,

Instance checks out

I played a bit of payday 2 on my deck and it ran great, I’m not sure if it was using proton or what but I had no issues. I just wish the anti cheat companies would develop their stuff to work on Linux

arefx, (edited )

Can you not stick close to the source material but make it all new and nicer? Lol God this place is just as pedantic as reddit and annoying as reddit. It really is a human problem and not a platform problem.

I think a company sued valve over it hence why they abruptly put them all on sale for 5$ and never made any more. I believe valve ended up winning the lawsuit though hence bumpers on the steam deck

arefx,

Funny, but I think he means they want to take on the likes of Disney. Not necessarily be known for movies; but games, movies, shows, maybe even theme parks.

If any company has the ability to do it, it’s Nintendo.

arefx,

I stopped playing dota 3 years ago and my quality of life has greatly improved.

arefx,

Gaming in general isn’t a cheap hobby. You can get a 320$ steam deck, dock it and plug it into an old monitor add a cheap KB and mouse and you are PC gaming. Or you can spend 3,200$ on a top of the line rig. Its whatever you want to make of it. I wouldnt say its more expensive than console gaming, but you can make it one and you will get a better experience for it. Either way personally I would consider PC the best option by a fairly large margin.

arefx,

I mean I thought fallout 4 was kinda mediocre to bad, and fallout 76 was awful, so I don’t really expect much from Bethesda any more. TES 6 is gonna come out and feel like a 20 year old game, not in a good way.

arefx,

Okay but Bethesdas engine kinda sucks and source engine is still pretty good… Why keep something if it’s not very good, other than to save money of course.

I’m done paying anything above half off a Bethesda games since fallout 4/76 anyway, they were bad and awful.

arefx,

Part of me thinks/hopes they also aren’t putting too much attention on it because they want their upcoming games to be more on the quality level of witcher 3 than CP2077. At least I hope.

arefx,

How did you get it running on your steam deck I’m actually almost done with a Witcher 3 playthrough right now just finishing up the last DLC and then I wanted to replay the first two but saw there’s some issues

arefx,

Damn I have it on steam, but I bet I can pick it up on sale for dirt cheap on GOG when I wanna play it. Maybe by then the steam version will work. Thanks

arefx,

Steam deck is a great way to get into PC gaming if you don’t have a lot of money or a PC. It can run a lot of games. Enough that you won’t get bored any time soon.

arefx,

Eh maybe if you’re hands on and want to take the time to find the deals on the parts. You could just dock a steam deck and plug in a key board mouse and monitor.

In its first week, Immortals of Aveum had a peak count of just 751 players on Steam. (steamdb.info) angielski

After 5 years in development and heavily pushing Unreal Engine 5 technologies, Immortals of Aveum was met with a whopping 751 player peak. For reference, Forspoken was considered a flop but still had over 12,000 players peak total. This may be the biggest flop of the year.

arefx,

I didn’t even hear about this game until today.

arefx,

“Around 85% of all video games revenue comes from free to play games”

We really are the problem. They wouldn’t add all these microtransactions and manipulative payment methods if we didn’t sucker up.

arefx,

I meant the collective “we” as in humanity. You are an outlier among gamers I assure you, the vast majority are just “normies”.

arefx,

I don’t trust blizzard to make a new StarCraft game that’s good anyways.

arefx,

Overwatch is far from the worst game on steam but it is not a good game. It could be so much better if blizzard was still passionate about making good games but they are only passionate about nickle and diming now. We ALL need to stop giving them money. I gave in and bought diablo 4 and already stopped playing it, there’s just not enough substance to keep me coming back… The seasonal stuff is just a boring grind and I just feel bad about giving them my money, especially with all I know about how they treat their own employees. Just done with them.

arefx,

They’ve been awful since Activision got involved. I knew that was the end the day the news broke, people told me I was wrong. I wish.

Also they sexually harassed an employee to suicide. That tells you all you need to know.

arefx,

I think it’s a good commentary on the current economic situation in the USA, because I’m going to spend 500$ over fighting thru a mob of 2,000 for a free one any day, but clearly many people just don’t have that 500$ lying around.

Also, if you are one of the people with the money to buy one, just build a PC instead ;)

arefx,

True but a certain percentage of them are people with money who enjoy the madness. Not trying to take away from your point though as you are 100% correct…

arefx,

This is exciting of course, but alas, I haven’t touched my switch since I got a steam deck. There’s a few Nintendo games I would want to play but I’m not sure I’ll buy a new console for them.
