Not just a game. It’s a core part of any project management. Unfortunately, we’ve seen the industry does it very poorly overall.

Working my way through the second. Different tone and design decisions (for the better). They did a great job advancing and updating their ideas from the first. And it can look stunning visually.

Don’t apologize for having an opinion. Just apologize for discounting the ones that don’t agree with yours. It’s listed as very positive on Steam and sold very well. Your hyperbole about everyone saying it was bad is provably wrong.

It sold 4 million copies. The press lathered it with praise as a lot of major media outlets gave it 9s.

Game Critics Awards: Best Original Game

DICE awards: Best RPG

Nebula Awards: Best Writing

2019 Game awards: nominated for four categories, including game of the year

It was nominated and won other awards as well

Not surprised MiSide didn’t receive any press. The same thing happened for Doki Doki until a press piece went viral.

Outer worlds was received perhaps even better and was more popular than Avowed is currently. People’s memories are fuzzy I guess but Outer Worlds was a genuine GOTY contender.

I’m just not seeing much mentioned about inexpensive PCs nowadays. The PS5 Pro basically has a 7800XT in it, and that’s like $500 on its own. If you don’t play multiplayer games often, or at all, or you don’t care for the ps plus games, you no longer need to even play for ps plus.

I think the days of PC gaming being the de facto answer for value gaming are gone. It’s entirely situational and I’d personally say the pendulum has swung the console route. It’s unfortunate that we now have limited technological progress on top of expensive GPUs. Remember when you could wait 4-5 years and get a 100% increase in performance for roughly what you spent previously?

They slipped my mind. Unfortunately I think they’ll remain the only ones.

Yea I’d forgotten about Epic.

I thought the arc cards required a beefy cpu to get the most out of them? Used components are kinda cheating the argument because you could just buy a used console. I remember mathing out the pc argument and I just couldn’t justify it. The included ps plus games would also hurt the argument for stuff like steam sales.

If you played the same games, it didn’t make sense for me go pc. The only real use case I could argue was for the Steam storefront itself (and if you take advantage of fee Epic games). I don’t know whether console or pc benefits more from patient gaming or for buying mostly new games. Like… it’s not clear cut either way for a lot of use cases.

That used to be the case. I’d definitely be on your side of the argument before this generation. A $500 investment 4 years ago in an Xbox or PlayStation would run circles around a $500 investment into PC parts back then. Heck, I’d be interested if you could find something similarly powered nowadays. The GPU alone gets you to a digital only ps5.

That doesn’t make sense. Steam takes the same cut. I’m sure all of the vendors do.

The new game price difference between PC and console is largely gone. There aren’t many games released simultaneously on both console and pc that aren’t $70 nowadays. I definitely agree on the PSN cost though. Fortunately it takes years for that subscription cost to catch up to the difference in hardware coats.

“This doesn’t affect me so I don’t care. I’m going to let others know it doesn’t affect me so I can lord it over them.”

I must be super behind the times. All I knew about Iron Galaxy was ports, Killer Instinct, and Divekick.

What does this have to do with live service?

Second video posted from this creator today . The presentation is very off-putting. I’d suggest they take a different approach if they want to be taken seriously and to garner more credibility. I couldn’t make it through either video.

I was trying to place the screencap in one of the bioshocks.

I don’t understand how having things and being well off means a person has nothing to lose. Have none of y’all seen Trading Places? People value different things.

I’d be curious to know if the whistleblowers of the last 25 years or so match this description of the “most ethical person”. I doubt it.

I can agree more with this statement.
