I couldn’t give two fucks about the sanctity of some bloody leaderboards, just let me play the blasted game offline without making it out to be some kind of gods damned crime worthy of multiple popups warning me how you “Make a distinction between online and offline play” How about you fucking don’t No one NO ONE is going to pour through the annals of history in 509 years time to find out who topped the leaderboard in the Sapienza level of Hitman. ITS A SINGLE PLAYER FUCKING GAME Stop taking leaderboards so bloody seriously.
Anyways, great game, ten out of ten, probably a top ten all time. Probably would be a top five if it wasn’t for having to sit through loading screens just to play it offline.

The funniest part is it became even more difficult to comprehend when they folded it all into one game, it was easier to just buy the fucking games when they were 1 - 2 - 3.
- Comment on Last Epoch players turn on the action RPG for announcing a paid DLC class, tanking its Steam reviews: 'go play Path of Exile instead' 1 week ago:
Hoping to cover costs solely from cosmetics is a pie-in-the-sky fancy and they knew that, the only way that works is if your game blows up in the way that only those rare, 0.01% of games do. Saying they expected that to work out was some fucking bullshit. I sympathize with their plight, it’s obvious that if the options are sell DLC or shut down the studio, you sell DLC, but it shouldn’t have happened like this.
They were dishonest at worst or brutally naive at best from the start. I’m willing to accept that latter simply because these were originally Reddit people who wanted to make their own mark on the genre, but it’s still inexcusable. I have zero involvement in the industry and I could tell you that was not gonna work out.

People keep saying “lemmy is dying Bluesky is dying” but maybe it’s the fact that the people who migrated to those sites were already burned on social media and know better than to start arguments on the internet.
- Comment on Windows 11's adoption is much slower compared to Windows 10, claims Dell 1 week ago:
Yeah, my pc has been sitting around for over two months. I think I’m gonna go with Cachy on my machine, just need to find some time 😫
- Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3 2 weeks ago:
The Wii sold the most consoles but the 360 had the most engagement. Wii consoles sat in closets or became Wii Sports machines, 3rd parties gave up releasing titles on it due to miserable sales and the only games that sold were Nintendo games. Saying it “won the generation” because it sold the most consoles isn’t really telling the whole truth.
- Comment on Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading 3 weeks ago:
Ubisoft is a textbook example of what happens when you pin your companies revenue on a small handful of IPs and milk them to the absolute fucking limit. I like assassins creed, but I’ve played enough of them for the rest of my life. Make something new my dudes.

What is the point of this console?

I’d rather have a console that doesn’t run windows.

🤣 too true

It’s going to look like a PS2 game and play like the almost 30 year old original.

That’s why it’s the cat food spoon, baby. Blast it with the nuclear hot water and move on.

- Comment on The campaign against predatory in-game practices takes a step forward in Brazil, as President Lula bans loot boxes targeted at under-18s 2 months ago:
Loot boxes should be banned and in game currency needs to be banned as well. I’m so tired of this just accepted practice of scamming people out of money with shitty in game currency prices.
- Comment on Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics' 2 months ago:
Then we should be paying for this like it’s a 2003 game. Two bucks.

Very suspicious that review copies weren’t given to publications that are much harder in their reviews.
- Comment on Lords of the Fallen 2 Will Be Revealed During Gamescom 3 months ago:
I tried to get into it a few times but when you’ve played a couple thousand of hours of the Souls series, it came off a cheap imitation.
I bounced off the new one right away. It sounded fun on paper but the big lantern mechanic was over sold and not fun.
- Comment on Lords of the Fallen 2 Will Be Revealed During Gamescom 3 months ago:
It seemed more like “we own this name and it’s pretty edgy and marketable” to me. The first one existing (and being complete and utter shit) probably didn’t matter to anyone on the publishing side.

In Canada.
- Comment on America wants AI that doesn't care about misinformation, DEI, and climate change 4 months ago:
It is an absolute fucking god damn JOKE that Americans have allowed the concepts of DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION to be turned into a FUCKING ACRONYM THAT IS USED AS A PEJORATIVE.
Every single fucking one of them should be bloody ashamed for what has happened. At no fucking god damn point has any decent fucking person challenged any of these assholes on this, they’ve all just let it happen.
Unfuckingbelievable

- Comment on The Star Wars Outlaws flop - Guillemot blames waning interest in the franchise 4 months ago:
I don’t even hate the Ubisoft formula, but it’s, like, dawg…. Try something new. I go years without being interested in the schlog, then I get really into one. But it’s astounding that they’re still putting out the same game for over a decade now. The trimmings might be a little spruced and fluffed here and there but the core loop is still the same fucking game, again and again and again.

People love them. They’ve talked about them for years. They show up on best indie game lists and the like.
I find them incredibly boring.
