Saad from eXputer: "Utilizing its myriad strengths and masterful design, Elden Ring ruined gaming for me in a way I'll always be thankful for."
It sounds like you’re just an eldenring fan and not so much a fan of games by and large. Which theres nothing wrong with.
These are the easy Achievement/Trophy Games for the week of April 29th - May 5th, 2024
Microtransactions have gotten ridiculously overpriced in recent years, with titles now offering cosmetic skins worth more than some games.
There never was, the only time I paid for a microtransaction was on Blacklight Retribution (PS4) and it was because I enjoyed the game a lot so I felt the devs should get something for all that entertainment (€5 "membership")
I couldn’t believe what Blizzard charged for horse armor and cosmetics in Diablo 4…
I remember back in the day when a season pass was $15 and you got everything included in it. Now, I see them at $60 and you still don’t get everything.
As soon as gaming wasn't deemed nerdy anymore, and reached the casuals this happened. We're smart, but casuals play mobile games and other stuff, and don't really have anything to compare. They think gaming is supposed to be like this and pay for in game purchases.
It's okay to be excited about any piece of hardware that offers content that you like...There's no need to want acceptance or permission to buy items that you may enjoy.
if its "okay"? lol cmon man. Why wouldn't it be ok if someone likes it? :-/
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the gamers always win in a console war.
Of course you should be excited. New consoles bring new games, even if they haven't been announced yet.
No excitement allowed!
Of course is it! It's a machine.
The real question is 'Should you forgive MS?'. If you like their exclusives and some of the Kinect features, then of course it's fine to be excited for XB1.
MS' decisions are open for scrutiny, but the responsibility lies on the few execs and higher ups that allow it. Their job is to know that the reaction would be as bad as it is. I chose not to forgive. Their execs don't seem in touch to me. People like Yusuf, 'Major Nelson', and old Don have always annoyed me.
