Yeah the gameplay loop in that game is definitely an issue, IMO what they need is a 'optional' victory condition like in Anno 1800 or Factorio where you have the option to keep playing after winning.

What's the deal with this certainty that this is the result of people's will? I'm more inclined to beleive it is a systemic result of 'winner takes all' logic and the penetration of political and media institutions by bad actors.

I'm beginning to believe that a large portion of this society doesn't actually see anything wrong with genocide, they just don't like the word and are content with telling themselves that the victims deserved it.

Isreal and the US government know what they are doing, the killing is deliberate, it is the only viable explanation for things like the treatment of UNRWA and the clear targeting of civilians in Gaza and the West Bank. Claiming that these targets are somehow militants would be laughable if the consequences weren't so saturated with human blood.

It's obvious to me that both parties would make the same choices here, party politics are only to blame here as far as they enabled themselves to be so throughly penetrated by foreign interests. Only real difference with Trumptard VS genocide Joe is that trump would be more transparent with his support for genocide.

Hosted a multiplayer world and didn't have any serious issues, but according to everyone else playing with me it was laggy as shit (and I'm kown for having the best internet in my group)

Despite trying I never got Into pokemon as a kid so my judgment isn't worth much in that regard, but it's still very much an unfinished game, as everyone buying it should know in advance.

It was fun but I probably never would have bought it without friends to play it with, and I probably won't launch it again until it's far more complete.

I've actually already got a couple hundred hours in CoI lol, but it's definitely something to check out for others reading this.

I will also say that it's VERY dangerous to play while stoned lol.

If this somehow bombs (I know it won't), I'm going to start calling him Hediwo Jima in public.

I gave into peer pressure earlier this year and tried League.

God that shit was boring.

It was a gimmick. Execeptionally Well executed gimmick? Yes. It took creative vision and the commitment to see it through and that is important, But DSR is just on another level. It's like Ozymandius VS Dr Manhattan.

That game had no right to beat DSR for sound design.

IIRC devs claimed the amount of content would be on par with the base game around the time they first announced it.

Very hype.

Yeah, I think a big part of that is that people see this idea of digital permanence you're describing, and it gets misrepresented to shit.

I wonder what they did with Biters on this world?

I expect we'll get a post about it eventually, probably closer to release.

The company suffering because they betrayed the trust of their customers actually is capitalism working as intended lol, all we're missing is someone who actually holds the line Unity sold themselves as holding but failed to do.

TFW a product marketed towards adults who watch a show designed to appeal to little children failed to find a large enough market.

What role do you think the Steam workshop plays in this?

Obviously the people playing the AAA franchises don't care, but when you see the sheer quantity of workshop content for some games (Cities:Skylines and Space Engineers come to mind for me, no doubt there's other examples in genres I'm less familiar with), you see how much the modding community has contributed to the commercial success of these games. I'm wondering how this factors in to steam as a whole.

Someone spoiled the Dead Space remake ending for me a week before it even came out.

One of my favorite improvements is that industries now work like they do in ANNO 1800.

I find myself accidentally pressing ctrl+q a lot.
