E was really damn popular during that time, so why not?

Konami died the moment they fire Kojima and embraced the god of pachinko machines.
- Comment on A patient gamer youtuber explaining why she only plays old games 4 weeks ago:
That depends on what you watch and subscribe. Watch angry, conflict-driven videos, and you’ll get those.
I personally don’t get any of that shit in my feed.
- Comment on A patient gamer youtuber explaining why she only plays old games 4 weeks ago:
YouTube is like the rest of the internet, some good, some bad.
- Comment on A patient gamer youtuber explaining why she only plays old games 4 weeks ago:
I think that was too vague. Also, I’m not real clear if that’s good or bad.
- Comment on Star Citizen Expose Paints a Fairly Bleak Picture: 'There's No Actual Focus on Getting the Game Done' 4 weeks ago:
Chris Roberts is still rich, and could probably retire right now without worrying about anything. He could tank the company, and he wouldn’t care.
- Comment on The Internet Archive’s Fight to Save Itself 1 month ago:
while OpenAI & friends have been infringing copyright on a much, much bigger scale, and getting away with it.
Based on what? Distributing numbers in a big database doesn’t infringe on copyright, and downloading a web page or image doesn’t either.
- Comment on The Internet Archive’s Fight to Save Itself 1 month ago:
And I am of the opinion that spreading access to knowledge is vastly more important than copyright laws made decades before the internet was a thing. Especially when is comes to US copyright laws being forced upon the rest of the world.
Breaking the law is not how you change copyright laws. Ironically, AI is the best way to crack copyright laws like an egg, but everybody seems to be vehemently opposed to it.
- Comment on The Internet Archive’s Fight to Save Itself 1 month ago:
Not sure why this is getting downvoted. It’s completely accurate.
They pushed this “digital library” idea to even beyond their own definition, got punished for it, and now they are at-risk of losing their core function. Corporations and alt-right shills would love to get rid of any trace of accountability, and this is one avenue that calls them out on the bad shit they post online.

This is not the place for commas. This calls for a slash.
Alan Wake / Control developer agrees

Well, it also doesn’t help how much they are “accidentally” insulting multiple racial groups trying to make an Assassins’ Creed game.

I’m sure that line of thinking will go over great when you stay home during Election Day and Trump magically gets elected.

- Comment on The two most upvoted comments on any Lemmy instance are on Feddit.dk, but you won't see them on your own instance 2 months ago:
A Mastodon user stumbling upon one of these comments could easily assume that it is just another fully independent “toot” (Mastodon’s equivalent of tweet).
Wait, back up… Mastodon calls these “toots”? So, everybody is posting farts?
- Comment on "Modding is pretty big" says Baldur's Gate 3 director as over 1m mods are installed in less than 24 hours 2 months ago:
That kind of ownership clause is pretty standard for mods, especially when the game officially supports mods. Game studios don’t want to run into legal issues if they release some DLC or patch that happens to implement features that another mod included.
- Comment on Gearbox's first Risk of Rain 2 expansion gets hammered on Steam as developer admits the PC version 'is in a really bad place' 2 months ago:
From what I’ve read they tried to combine the console and PC version into a unified single version.
JFC. Starting off with something that is cross-compatible is one thing, but trying to merge the two codebases together… that’s a 2-3+ year effort, minimum.
- Comment on Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic” 2 months ago:
Steam is just ok to for what I want from a store/launcher.
It’s not just ok, compared to the alternatives. A games library that cannot be matched, regular sales, easy no-frills refunds, cloud saves, beta support, family mode, big picture support, seamless integration with the Steam deck, which in its own right, has pushed right-to-repair and Linux gaming to new heights. The competition doesn’t even have any of this stuff, including the console market, and if they can’t compete, they don’t deserve my money.
No digital game store is worth your loyalty.
I’m fine being loyal to a privately-owned company that actually gives a shit about its customers. As long as Gabe is still alive and they will continue to be privately-owned, the company will stay in good graces.
- Comment on Microsoft’s Recall AI feature won’t be available for Windows testers until October 2 months ago:
Can’t we just have it not available? At all? I don’t think people want a bunch of screenshots getting stolen.
- Comment on Nothing is requiring employees to be in the office five days a week 2 months ago:
“Nothing is requiring employees to be in the office five days a week”
Yes, you’re right. There isn’t a thing that requires this. You shouldn’t be required to do so.
The problem with naming a company an idiotic name like “Nothing” is that it’s so easy to make who’s-on-first jokes.
- Comment on What’s a game you can 100% without hating by the end? 2 months ago:
Or FF13. Some of the ultima weapons in that game require so much fucking grinding.
- Comment on Actors demand action over 'disgusting' video game sex scenes 2 months ago:
It’s a somewhat new job title, but it’s now becoming standard across the movie industry.
- Comment on Actors demand action over 'disgusting' video game sex scenes 2 months ago:
All indie porn games are still in development. That’s their default state.
- Comment on The FCC proposes requiring robocallers to disclose when they’re using AI 3 months ago:
Let’s go one step further and require robocallers to disclose that they are robocallers.
