Well it’s more than “just a key”, they hook into all kinds of other systems like CDNs for updating and things like that. On the customer side, sure. But also on the customer side, if I pre-ordered Metro Exodus I would be pissed that now I will be forced to use another platform, with another launcher, and another…

Why?  If I pre-ordered it on Steam and was forced to go to another platform, I would call that unfair.

It was throwaway flavor text that was probably never actually meant to inform who Leon was as a character.  Non-issue.

lmao what?  Are you for real?

Right but they didn’t even stick to the spirit of the franchise (as it existed til that point). They weren’t gory, suspenseful horror movies, they were scifi action movies. A great movie could have been made if they had stuck to making it claustrophobic, eerie, mysterious, desperate.  Instead of was about an…

I used to fall asleep while playing WoW, get logged out, then the intro music would play at the login screen and wake me up and I’d log back in.  Those were some dark days, let me tell you.

Please explain how it’s possible to cancel something that was already released.

First of all, the title says “Remaining DLC”.

Second of all, why was the “fuck you” necessary?  Do you honestly care this much?

This happened in South Korea.

I get what you mean here, but The Elder Scrolls games are full of NPCs who will follow you across the world to talk to you, or wait for you to approach and force you into a dialog session as you walk by.  Sure, the Radiant AI system makes sure they all have paths to walk throughout the day and things they will do when…

Sure, we can’t dictate what they do with the franchise because they’re human beings with autonomy.  But there wouldn’t be a game without fans who love the world.  And if “making whatever you want” means taking this rich lore and dropping it into a Rust clone, I’d rather they just didn’t make anything at all.

.. Did you see the hour long gameplay preview?

> these tweets are incredibly alarming to anyone in contact with LGBTQA+ members of the gaming community

Well, Riley said they’re not concerned about them and questions whether they’re “blatant attacks”. I don’t think you agree with Riley as much as you think you do (or at least, I don’t think Riley thinks what you…

Those “perspective issues” sure do look intentional to me.

Who are you to say who should or should not buy something?  Calling it idolization sounds like “unnecessary hyperbole” to me.

There are literally zero actual reasons to think that that would be the case. His games have always been, across the board, among the most mechanically perfect games of their time.  We need more off-the-wall concepts and original storylines in gaming.

Nazis and other people with reprehensible views tend to be segregated to very small, toxic communities that don’t represent the rest of the reddit community. They just get reported on more because it’s sensational, and then people like you spew this crap and perpetuate it.

There is a difference between being historically accurate and being a “simulator”. Plenty of games try to be historically accurate but still include mechanics that are meant to facilitate actual gameplay. Being able to repair a tank with a blowtorch or revive a teammate is not a matter of historical accuracy. It’s a…

Some people don’t find it fun to constantly lose their “investment” and start back at square one.
