I don’t complain, I just don’t buy live anymore lol. I am a game pass subscriber though. I play MP games on PlayStation.
Good call. I already have Detroit but I wouldn’t have downloaded a soccer game anyways.
Yeah SHOULD be. Unfortunately the loudest and whiniest seem to get what they want nowadays. Can’t really blame people for acting like that when it seems to be what works.
Vaniaroids
Highly doubt it. Some characters have been designed well enough to make me think twice lol. I would have protected tali in mass effect from anything that game threw. If MW manages to do that I will be impressed. Doubt it though.

Ruining franchises and studios isn’t immoral, it’s incompetence. When EA sees the the ridiculous amount of money they pull in because of micro transactions they literally think “wow people really don’t want single player games anymore we don’t need this single player studio anymore. They are following the money like any business would. When they release a skate game 1 year after the last with no real changes or budget and it flops they really think “wow skateboarding games aren’...
It’s just an easier way of saying you backtrack with new gear. What’s the big deal?
That’s an ignorant way to look at a business. Making money is the only reason they exist. They didn’t close visceral because they were greedy, they didn’t close black box because they were greedy. They just don’t have any passion for games anymore. They make what sells. It’s not their fault people shower them with billions of dollars for trash. Of course they are going to keep making trash.. incompetently.
They’re not evil, they are incompetent.
It’s like they pretend the internet doesn’t exist. I hate to break the bad news but everyone is already desensitized, there is no going back to the 1950s lol.
That’s pretty gross. Do what you gotta do I guess. Reminds me of the roach gelatin in snowpiercer.
Such a cool trailer. I can’t wait to see more.
Everything is inherently political. You would be hard pressed to find something everyone agrees on.
Wow lol
Yeah it sucks there aren’t more good linear games
Same. I was disappointed because I’m such a huge fan of the first 3. If it wasn’t called mass effect I might have felt differently about it. I can forgive the flaws of budget games, I’m having a blast with the sinking city. When I put in a mass effect game I’m expecting something more though.
Great article and good questions. The corporate work conditions seem to be hit or miss and it’s great people are breaking off into small teams to make great games. It’s great that it has become possible with modern technology even without 30 years experience. Self publishing, twitch advertising and early access, etc. This guy is doing it the right way.
They are regulated in the sense that it’s not gambling, sure. They exist, that alone defeats your argument. It’s not gambling by any definition because there is no monetary reward. That’s the point and the industry boundaries that you mention are nothing new.
You responded to me so I don’t know why you are being so passive aggressive lol. If you didn’t want me to type then why comment?
A player could hold tremendous value in an item but it doesn’t change the real world monetary value. It can’t be used outside of the game. That’s why the WSOP Facebook game isn’t gambling. You can buy in with real money if you want, the payoff doesn’t exist even if you win. It’s entirely in game rewards.
I get that everyone wants to tie their personal emotions and attachments to it but that’s not how regulations work. In an emotional sense everything is a gamble. We’re not ...
I don’t think I have ever disagreed with this guy lol. I still haven’t beat RDR2 and GOW is amazing. I disagree that Spider-Man is better than GOW but I loved Spider-Man as well and could see why it’s his GOTY.
