- Comment on 'Death Stranding 2' proves more video games need to get weird, experts say 2 hours ago:
2024 had 100xRESIST, Hades 2, and Nine Sols immediately come to mind. I’m sure there are plenty more, but that’s 3 off the dome 🤷♂️
No need for the hostility. Hope you have a great rest of your weekend.

One or two good indie action games a year? Gotta broaden your horizons my dude

Problem with handheld PC is the family/split screen play. Very limited compared to a switch.

If they somehow even got 10% of their audience to go to another platform that would be a miracle

I really liked 2. The story is very strong and they definitely don’t sit on their laurels. There’s one sequence in particular I wish I could talk about that just blew me away like 2/3rd of the way in

at this point I have to believe you are simply skimming and not actually reading what I’m writing. You’re saying things that are almost valid but don’t make sense when you actually look at the content of my comments.

So your oven/microwave/etc. are all good? No clock reset required?
Your computer doesn’t take longer to boot if it doesn’t have backup power?
The PS4 needed you to click one button and it moved on. It adds like 20s to boot time if it loses power.

What PC or appliance stays on when your power cuts off?
- Comment on Sony faces another class-action lawsuit over PlayStation Store prices and monopolistic practices 3 days ago:
my power cuts every now and then
I mean dude that’s just a larger problem. If you were PC gaming that would be an even bigger issue.
Get a surge protector with battery - APC is a very affordable brand.

I mean if you read through EULA’s respect but they take seconds to get past. As for updates, I’m guessing you turned off auto updates and/or power your console down completely whenever you’re not playing it. Otherwise it should just be updating in the background and you never have to wait.
I’m not saying those aren’t viable decisions with their own pros, but the stuff you were encountering was completely avoidable. I never triggered 2FA on either my Xbox (one -> XSS) or PS4.

Ah I think I misinterpreted the thrust of your comment

The brief period I used it it was actually pretty decent. iPad played Oxenfree 2 like a dream. Great touch controls.

Lmao wow yeah idk why I thought that. Ignore me. Need my coffee

16 is on PC and Xbox, turn based, still crushed by 15 and other outings.
- Comment on Sony faces another class-action lawsuit over PlayStation Store prices and monopolistic practices 3 days ago:
No PC that isn’t a lower powered handheld can pick up and play like a console. Consoles are also, at least for a few years, the far more economical decision. It’s maybe changed now but I’d challenge anyone here to match a digital PS4 for $400 USD with a PC. It’s a tall order.
I am now a strictly PC gamer. It’s better for most things. But consoles still make sense to a lot of people.

lol did you see my comment and post the article I linked?
Anyway this is a dead end clearly. Part of it is so many of us can’t even sign the petition. Bummer these guys are done but i guess we just need to find a other way

If you need to play tit for tat and “get even” then all the more reason for us to move on man.
- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 4 weeks ago:
Your parents likely also can’t do quick mental math. That’s not smart phones, that’s just aging. You aren’t drilled anymore. You don’t do it everyday.
I taught middle schoolers remedial math for heads in my 20’s so I actually am very fast at basic arithmetic in my head. It’s because it’s more recent for me.
- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 4 weeks ago:
Yes but why do I need to know a grade school friend’s number? I know my wife’s. I know my singlings’. These have changed too, so I’ve memorized them in the smartphone era. If you know no emergency number that’s just bad prep. Everyone should do that. But memorizing lots of numbers? Pointless.

The last two didn’t bomb. Oxenfree 2 is estimated to have made a modest profit despite being available for “free” on Netflix and it was critically well received.
