Jeez when you put it that way you make this decision look really stupid/.

So the company who only 15 years ago released the first Assassin’s Creed and sold 8 million copies and started a series of which each most recent titles have apparently only sold ~10M copies itself - that company is giving up on a new IP that they’ve admitted was a “healthy commercial success” to focus on franchises…

Yup. Like, literally all they would need to do is release a first-party Dualshock controller that snaps onto a phone and they’d have a more cost-effective and more desirable product for most people.

<sigh> of course it won’t be single use batteries, it’s actually like the PSP or earlier smartphones, that had proprietary but removable batteries. Now they’re glued in so that they CAN’T be replaced, or make it more difficult than using a screwdriver. It’s only about planned obsolescense, and the lew is trying to…

The big reason TF2 has stuck around so long is that they have great core mechanics combined with a very community driven update system. I don’t think there were any other major games around offering community members payment for making content for their games when Valve did. It’s why the game can have 14 new maps in…

Without mods the subreddits would be unreadable spam. And that would cause people to not visit. Which would cause Reddit to crater. So sorry but the CEO is in the wrong here. He seems to forget how Reddit got so large. But if he wants to keep fucking around he’s going to find out. Someone will build a new Reddit and…

Being an Overwatch fan in 2023 is an emotional rollercoaster, they’re all used to it by now

Cancel PVE and then have the gall to charge $15 for this? This is scummy as shit.

Maybe for those that are trying to hyper-analyze it. But at its core it’s just a game about being a fuck-up and either making things worse on purpose, on accident, or accidentally solving a murder.

Feature creep has long been one of the assumptions for why the game isn’t out yet. That seems to be correct!

I collect Movies and TV shows because they don’t require an update and actually shows a movie in full quality. But I’d also make a media server for convenience.

What, no Bed of Chaos?

Pokemon Go is weaksauce. Let me catch Pokemon out in the wilderness and hikes. Put legendaries in epic hard to reach places. Instead they just want you to wander around Starbucks in cities. 

“Brutal callout? Yeah right.”
*Clicks Slide 1*
“Listen here you little shit.”

Good for you?

I don’t think that’s it. There’s got to be some Other Metroid game we’re missing...but baby, I just can’t think of it.

Still rocking my original version, no MK8D.

It shouldn’t be surprising that game studios owned by people in totalitarian countries where speaking out against the government is a good way to get arrested ... don’t speak out against the government. It’s kind of, tautological.
