We’re literally talking about binary morality systems.

“Older games did that more, where you could “break” the entire game by just being a violent bastard. Newer games have controls in place to make the game still work if you are that way.”

I think this dynamic is clearest in Quantic Dream games. Bad choices often result in your characters dying, getting arrested, basically taken off the board and closing off the rest of their stories (which has the implication of the entire narrative ending poorly). You can freely make these choices, but then you…

In almost every case, playing the good path is more beneficial to experiencing more game.

People were complaining that HZD’s PC performance at launch was not so great. Has it improved since?

I mean, Ubisoft in particular has ported a lot of their PS3 games to PS4 via remastered. Not sure how this is a big deal for anyone.

“Right leaning central political views in the uk”

What a brilliant argument, professor.

“People like one of them. The other is really old.” Wow, convincing argument.

What does non-evil conservatism look like?

“Wait, you think exclusives are the sole selling point of consoles?”

I’m speaking from the POV of a PC gamer. PS Now appealed to me because it had some games not yet on PC, particularly from the PS3 era. But Sony isn’t really adding new exclusives, and the more stuff like Catherine gets ported at last, the further PS Now drops off my radar.

Yeah, I’ve almost replaced all of my, uh, “other” files with the genuine articles, and the “others” I still have, I’ve never played, and am just waiting for them to go on sale.

Oh yeah, the ease of Steam is a huge factor. I was reluctant at first. I was also big into, uh, less ethical methods of playing games. But when AC Origins came out, I decided I didn’t want to wait for someone to come up with a crack, and bit the bullet on steam.

As someone who bought a PC at the start of the PS4 generation, my choice was determined by . . . well, by video editing software. But after realizing my PC also doubled as a decent gaming rig, I realized I could get most of the same game experiences I enjoyed on consoles on the PC. I used to associate PCs with stuff…

Which new big exclusives have they added permanently lately?

What does gaming hardware as distinct from the games even mean?

But I didn’t say all conservatives are alt right, or that all conservatives are anything.

There’s nothing stopping Sony from sending you a free PS5 and every game in their library. So fucking what?

No, contrarian doesn’t mean skeptical. If he thinks they’re the same, he’s incorrect.
