It's also incredibly lazy journalism, because all you need to do is find something that might be perceived as offensive by someone and then play it up.
There's no need to understand the depth of the game with that approach, and the result is that we get shallow games as devs react to shallow journalists.
"Assassin's Creed" is just the franchise name for their historical action-RPG games.
I hope they keep on going with the series because it allows us to game while feeling we're actually learning something about history.
A classic example of fake news. The headline is wildly misleading.
And it worked, because it managed to hijack the N4G front page.
This is actually a great time for satire because of the general insanity that has taken over society. Though this also makes it a terrible time because while you may create a timeless work of art, everyone will hate you.
Alexios has better voice acting. I just reported it so it must be true.
They got paid. They now want bonus money for nothing, which is what severance is.
And that's fine in usual circumstances, when a company can afford it, but this is an obvious case of when they're just trying to take what they can get.
The American jobs market is great at the moment, with unemployment at its lowest for 50 years. They don't need free money.
I don't want this game and have no interest in it beyond its role in gaming history. Petty self-interest must be set aside for the greater good; without the ability to make such sacrifices, the pyramids never would have been built.
The former staff will get over it.
Nobody will care about the severance pay of the staff in 10 years. Not even the staff themselves.
The Walking Dead Final Season, however, will close the storyline upon which Telltale rose and fell. It will become a part of gaming history.
Art must triumph over greed.
The games industry is creative. Stop being creative, then you're usually going to decline.
Customers vs employees.
6. Steam goes bust and we lose all the games we already have.
The author of the article ("they") has explained his wish to turn video games into propaganda supporting his political opinions. Other critics have tried to hide their attempts to do the same by simply criticising existing video games as "misogynist", "racist" or something of the sort (recall Anita Sarkeesian), in a way that betrays not even the faintest hint of self-awareness.
I'm not sure why you thought I was referring to game devs.
At least they're open about wanting to turn video games into left-wing propaganda.
The Church of Gabe is not a cult, but the truth.
The primacy of feminism is a relic of the past.
This is possibly a response to FOSTA/SESTA, which was regulation passed by congress. It was introduced by a Republican legislator, and had bipartisan support.
Wonderful. It makes things so much easier when companies add themselves to a boycott list.
I'm not sure a person can be considered "trash", and that seems like a somewhat dangerous way to look at other people.
I don't know the creator of the game personally, so I am not in a position to pass judgement upon him, but nor am I going to defend him.
I am not a supporter of the seduction community (because I think it has its priorities upside-down), but it is nonetheless interesting to understand the way they think, and the footage ...
The problem with the pro-censorship crowd is that they tend to consist largely of ignorant buffoons. If a game disgusts you, then you have learnt something about beauty, just as if a game were to captivate you. Both beautiful and awful games serve to teach those playing them something about themselves. Those who value learning oppose censorship.
Windows is owned by Microsoft. If you have a PC, you have a Microsoft platform.
The difference is that Microsoft is no longer competing with itself, pitting Windows against Xbox. You can buy a game from Microsoft and then play it on your Microsoft platforms, which is what they mean by their user-based approach.
The competition is no longer Windows vs Xbox vs Sony vs Nintendo, but Microsoft vs Sony vs Nintendo.
You might say "that m...
