And you think they give a rat’s ass about your Playstation-storage? :-) People will buy it, even if it needs a playstation for itself. Or came with a playstation bundled. Which only allowed GTA6 on it but costs triple. It would still sell like crazy. At least you now know why they CAN’T put it onto a disc, even if they wanted to :)

So. Will you buy it? if yes, then what are you even talking about? If no, then welcome to the boat, where is the actual problem? When I will maybe buy this in 3-7yrs, i would not care for the 0,2tb it wants anymore. I would not care today, but that’s not really the point.

Everything is closing in at 2x of 1.5yrs ago, so what? Do you use LLMs? Then you’re part of the reason, why are you complaining? Don’t? Then sorry bro…

Besides, my initial post explicitly said “last 3 decades”, so the reference frame was fitting. Despite not being totally serious…

Compared to the 3000,- a 20MB drive cost said decades ago, storage is cheap 😁 But you say that as if the big studios care about such things. People will pay full price (or probably higher) anyway. Even if it’d be 1TB download.

A “news” telling people the download-size of some game…wow. And it’s slightly bigger than other AAA. Astonishing.

Download-siizes rose for the last 3 decades, who would have ever expected that…

Ah the simpler ancient times of yesteryear. We didn’t just accept such crap. Now companies fear no resistence anymore (and there isn’t any).

In my company this was normal. New great game got released? People took a week off or two, or worked more from home or moved to part-time. And it was all fine. I already expected that as I am a gamer myself 😁

That’s what most capitalist numbnuts just don’t get: a happy employee is a productive employee.

Mine had profit-shares (from janitor upwards), come-and-go-as-you-please, free food and drinks and whatnot. No stupid forced meetings or dumb “bonding-trips” or anything. And guess what? Noone ever exploited the system. Every agree-upon work was always delivererd. Often before estimated deadline. And also I didn’t earn 35838291x the average employee-salary. Just a tiny bit more, which is fair considering it was my risk all alone.

Point is…people who do these headlines, or even think like this, have totally lost reality and were never really human but just a worker-bee with more money. I usually pity them. No amount of money will ever fill their inner void.

400 games in 3 decades? I’d call that a lazy quarter 😁

I just bought on release-day. But didn’t play it until a year later. I learnt from my mistakes, and behold, it was the right choice. They released way too early 😁

I had zero problems, tons of mods, massive hours of fun.

That is rare, yes :) I actually checked, and it’s not many… Assassin’s Creed Origin&Odyssey and Subnautica&SZ were the only US-based AAA that were worth it for full-price (or more) in the last 5 years or so.

Cyberpunk+DLC. Well worth it. (Not at launch, but never play on release-day). Other than that I would have to check my library for hours-played to answer that… Which is sad.

It’s a rotting carcass for roughly a decade now, sadly. At least with US-based AAA. I would have to think for a while to come up with a title that well deserved full price. It was either indie, AA or some Chinese or polish AAA.

How can one be a “GTA 6 fan” when the game isn’t even released. I’m a fan of 1-5, but…

Oh wow. Anyway…
