My favorite series is disgaea, but I wouldn’t recommend it to most people, it’s over the top game breaking silliness.

Chroma-squad is often overlooked, but captures a lot of what name 90s trpg’s great and improves on the formula quite a bit.

The absolute best trpg imo is “bionic dues”, I feel like it you enjoyed into the breach you should definitely give bionic dues a shot, it’s such a different style of game,

Oh my goodness, someone else who played ghost master! What a quirky awesome game! I wasn’t aware it was PC exclusive, because who the hell consideres PC to be “exclusivity”

I mean…

I haven’t read anything about a console “beating” my deck, I’ve not really kept up with consoles since getting my deck.

I’m not upset if something sells more than the deck, it’s a different environment, should I be annoyed i-phones are more popular than the deck?

I don’t think Nintendos success will have any bearing on the next deck, be it design, marketing or release window, if anything the Nintendo coming out right now is great holdover/low market time between the deck and whatever comes next. If anyone was looking to buy new hardware right now it would be apt to compare the two products as the Nintendo would probably have better hardware, even though the product you get is so much different that 9 times out of 10 the honest & correct answer is ‘deck’.

Whatever is driving this theory/controversy is baiting for your attention. I’d recommend taking it with a grain of salt and focusing on the bigger issues right now (especially if in America)

Oh hell yes!

Now to get off this third world Internet (Northern California)

Man I should’ve read through the comments before I made a reply comment to another person, I could’ve added a source for every one of my “games will complain about X if a sequel is released” just from the comments here.

Rebuilding from code up instead of continuously adding to an overburdened foundation, I don’t know why he’d want to start fresh at all. And he can’t just rebuild and re release because the "mod scene"would pitch a fit

“gamers” would have a cow if there was ever a sequel seriously discussed. He already charged them once, how dare he charge them again.

I suspect 10-20% of the community would take that stance, even if it’s only a few%, it would absolutely be magnified by the echo chamber and there will be talk or how concerned ape left stardew valley “incomplete” and it’s "abandon-ware"and all future products should be pirated.

Very easy to tell if someone knows what they wrote about in a two minute conversation. My wife grades/t.a’s at a university, it’s obvious when someone doesn’t know the information in person (and she’s very understanding towards people who cannot verbalize the information but still know it). The old professors aren’t very keen to it, but the graders can very easily smell the bullshit.

And if you know the information well enough, but send it through gpt for editing/refinement, that’s usually accepted, unless you’re in a class that grades on composition.

Should be on patient gamers as well.

But I’m not holding my breath. Also if this person had any connection with valve they probably don’t any more.

Won’t catch me going there,

I thought I’d be a lifelong subscriber from the 90s, but early 2000’s they became a lot less reader focused and a lot more spiritual focused. Haven’t picked one up in over 20 years, sure as hell not going to their website

I wish warlock, “master of the arcane” and it’s sequel had done better, they were the perfect balance been civ and age of wonders, with twice the gameplay speed of either

It definitely had more games! Was very satisfied when the previews ended where they did, would’ve been amazing to have more but it was already so much,

Absolutely 10/10 protection, added a fair number of games to my wishlist, and even bought a couple. And It was fun trying to guess what games were before their titles came up.

Is that deep rock galactic going to be another free content update? At first I thought they were finally integrating what they learned from deep rock galactic survivors (and that would explain why they’ve never thought too long on multiplayer), but that has to be way too much for just a content update, right? Jeez coffee stain continues to knock it out of the park.

Wasn’t this like 40 minutes last year? Damn I’m excited to watch this (especially if it’s like last year’s) but that’s quite a time commitment, maybe over the next couple days.

I think I added half the games from last year to my steam wishlist/follow, unfortunately quite a few are still in development.

That’s the crux of my statement, yes.

AI doesn’t scare me.

How people respond to it scares me

And that it’s being prepared to drive/copilot government agencies scares the everliving shit out of me.

Now I’m frightened to my core.

AI doesn’t scare me.

People making decisions off of AI scare me.

The government mandating people use AI to make decisions frightens me to my core.

That would get them regulated, they’re only going after the “correct” “bad people”

Gotcha, sorry my comprehension failed me.

I checked out (searched steam for) the highest rated game mentioned in your post, I’m not surprised it didn’t get much press coverage, honestly it’s probably better for that game to fly beneath the coverage radar.

I think you missed a word in paragraph 4, “got press attention even though, in a lot of cases, they had a large player base” I believe you meant to add a negative before “got press attention”, or got little press attention

That was my thought, nobody in their right mind (least of all paranoid rich people) would use a third party service that requires them to announce they’re someone of value.
