If you’re as old as I am, you remember PC gaming as the only real gaming a person could do in the early 90′s. Games were developed for the PC first and ported to consoles last. PCs had the power to play and later on, the internet well before any console could figure it out. LAN parties were a thing that happened and game mods were awesome things that developers didn’t include on the game disc and charged you $15 for.
Over the past 13 years, we’ve seen PC gaming get shoved into the proverbial corner as publishers got paid to make titles exclusive to a console and as games required the newest tech to stay up to date. With that small turn, consoles became the dominant force in the industry and started making all the rules. So with next-gen consoles getting ready to be announced, how could PC gaming possibly come back to relevance? Indie gaming is our knight in shining armor.
We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.
Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.
Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.
Par for Bethesda.
As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.
And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.
A voice actor from The Coalition's third-person shooter series, Gears of War, has hinted at a new game announcement coming in June.
Hopefully Microsoft will go back to the original story line and get away from that woke nonsense from the last Gears game Gears of Woke! But were talking about Microsoft so all the betting money is on more of the same woke nonsense.
Save it from what?
it seems pc gaming has moved on from many, but many more have replaced them. Free to play and persistent experiences are where its going, not interactive movies. Advertising is done online, not on tv. PC gaming is atleast 5 years ahead of where console gaming is today.
