Comment on ARC Raiders Is the Most ‘It’s Fine’ Game We’ve Played in a While - IGN
pulido@lemmings.world 1 week agoI don’t like the trend of having to accept cheaper entertainment just so that the businesses behind it can make more money with less effort.
I’m not really interested in anything you mentioned, for example. It seems more like ‘quantity over quality.’

You’re not accepting more expensive entertainment either. You’re pirating it. None of these games were made with less effort; they’re typically just made by fewer people. Adding more people to the project doesn’t make the game any better, or else Ubisoft games would be the greatest games ever made. I think I see why you’ve got this perspective that’s completely divorced from reality. Yes, most games have microtransactions if you completely disregard most games. I’d encourage you to give some of those games you’re ignoring a try.

Buying it is unrelated to accepting it.
I respectfully disagree.
Lol, what? I think you’re just getting upset at me because I don’t like the low-effort games you enjoy.
Right, and most of the games that interest you don’t interest me.

It’s fine if you’re completely ignorant of the great games that have come out lately that you’ve ignored, but I wouldn’t consider it admirable to be this ignorant about great games or how they’re made.

Lol. You think ‘blue prince’ took as much effort to make as Crash Fucking Bandicoot or Metal Gear Solid and I’m the one who is ignorant about great games and how they’re made?
I’m guessing you never even played those games so you have no point of reference. You should try emulating them, then you can experience what it’s like to play great games completely free of charge. Heck, you might even raise your standards as a result going forward.
