All four remaining players are very happy!

Over a million actually by now, and they got above 15 mil total.

Wine is acceptable, but only after you punched them, disavowed their identity, intentionally withheld education from them, made them carry their teenage pregnancy to term and ruined the planet for them. Then you can have wine. Be more republican!

It sounds like they actually control quite a lot.

Turns out, when you do something clearly not okay and then actively go and taunt the people who could sue you for it with it, they might just, you know, do that. Since you actually went and asked them about it.

Same, and honestly, that’s enough for now. It already cuts out a giant portion of the footprint and I got so many other things to worry about, I can work on finding replacement cheese that isn’t a joke later.

Yeah it’s the same when people say this about FFXIV, which does have an extensive money-shop for extra mounts/animations/skins/etc.

They’re pricey as hell, but at the same time the only thing you ever might feel pressured into getting are:

• Fantasia (character do-overs) after enough years because you feel like you’ve seen enough of this face and want another one and want to finally become a cat-girl like everybody else is! The game does however give you two for free, and we’re soon getting a third one, at least temporarily.
• Character boosts if your friends are being assholes and berate you for not skipping the story (seen it happen) and it starts to get to you, instead of what 99% of the community does which is the exact opposite and encouraging everyone to take their time however many many months that might be. 😅

Someone owned a patent for minigames on the loading screen which is why we did not get thise after Broken Sword. At least that expired, so now for example we got Mario Party Jamboree doing it again.

Yeah I suspect they own the remaining titles. So there’s no cost to keeping them on there. I was also really surprised they keep swinging at the concept, considering how tepid the reception was beyond the original internet hype for Bandersnatch. Which makes sense, people don’t watch movies to actively be ready to press a button on short notice, you don’t exactly sit down on the sofa to go “Oh I know, how about 1,5h of QTE threat?”.

It’s a very cool concept, but one that targets the wrong audience, basically.

Yeah but have you seen the cutscenes of DA:V?

If that childish word salad sounds “preachy” to you, you need to go to a different preacher! Yours can’t even english.

How can this sound preachy to anybody? Has the fascist right lowered their own standard of education enough to where they think Marvel-style dialogue is normal?!

I mean despite how I feel the linked article’s author uses a type of language that makes me wary of them, I kinda agree. The utterly Marvel way the game talks about things combined with the inane inability to ever have any conflict, negatives or issues combines to essentially make a mockery of very real issues.

And I’m sorry, it’s one thing to want to use art to showcase real issues and poke at them and shine a spotlight onto them. That’s good, personally I want art to do that. But when you essentially use it as a joke piece due to the inherently non-serious nature of all your scenes, it just becomes even worse than not doing it. 😔 Please don’t shine a light onto serious topics if the only thing you use the light for is to point and laugh and mock.

I thought that was the - clever - point to make. :P

is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux

Average GNU, can’t even tell a division slash / from an addition plus +.

I did so many so convoluted ways of getting rid of enemies, but every time I see a video I learn of 2-3 more things.

Although in the end I think my most-used blocks were Water, the normal Bed, and as for a summon the Moa. 3 of those floating around really tore enemies to pieces.

Hrm, I’ll be honest then, you’re the very very first time I hear someone wanting to consume game reviews meta aggregation in a chronological way (instead of by-game). Not once seen this sentiment before.

I dunno, it’s just not how people use these pages I would assume. You create search shortcuts for them, not RSS feeds. You want to look up what various reviewers at large say about a specific game, more so because this changes over time (so would a feed udoate each time the score changes? Only once on the very first review? Only once it stops updating for X time? What if that takes months?). It’s the polar opposite of once you have 2-3 reviewers who mirror your personal take well where you might want to know each time these people post a new review.

Uh, yes of course? The customers for a console and a handheld PC aren’t the same so naturally the former wants a game posted to the console?

🤷‍♀️

Yeah, sorry, you’re not going to try have a neutral perspective about this, are you?

But humor me, why are so many Switch still being sold if other stuff is so superior? After all, like you said, they’re quite comparable and hey, Deck seems strictly superior. Right?

No I did not, you seemingly want a by-date system for the site, which feels quite a bit weird considering how people usually use review sites. Hence the prod at your comment. Basically, adding a site like opencritic to an RSS-reader makes no sense, and I say this with someone running multiple custom filters over nearly 120 subscriptions for my daily news dose.

Not remotely comparable, but sure, if you are like many here already a hobbyist PC gamer, you probably rather want a Steam Deck.

Yeah me neither. I really did not need user screaming to muddle the clarity of my review aggregator.

Ah yeah I forgot how everyone consumes their game ratings by release date, not by game. My bad.
