Lame. There's no reason you can't have co-op in an RPG. Wasteland 3 was made 100x better with the addition and allowing me to share the experience with a friend.
I don't agree with the classification of 360 as "retro," because I can think of multiple 360-era games in the top 50 charts today. The implication being that if the 360 is retro, so are its games.
And I can't imagine going up to someone playing GTAV or CSGO and saying "bro this game is retro."
Especially since they thought selling all their western franchises off at bargain bin prices to go all-in on NFTs was a good idea, and they've been pushing them to date despite continued unpopularity. Decisions like that aren't just out of touch, they're downright stupid.
It wouldn't surprise me if they ended up bought by Sony, considering their working relationship and poor leadership. Hell, I never bought FFVII Remake despite really enjoying FFXV, my first FF title, because of their business dealings. It was PS4 exclusive and I didn't wanna play it at 1080p 30 FPS on my near-launch console at the time. I knew it was temporary and coming to PC eventually, so I waited. This was followed by being Epic exclusive and the first $70 PC title, so I waited for a launch literally anywhere else and a sale. Eventually that happened with a Steam launch, woo-hoo, except by that point I didn't care as much as I did at launch and they had already given me the game as a PS+ title. Didn't really feel like buying it when I already had access, didn't ever even end up playing it, and now I have Intergrade's PS5 version as part of PS+ Extra these days for when I get around to it. In my eyes, they're kinda just standing in the way of their own sales in favor of taking whatever cash these companies are willing to offer them. I didn't buy FFXVI either, because I still have VII RI in my backlog from all that shit.
People complain about them supposedly having DRM now or whatever but, to be frank, the fact that I can just click "print" and it actually prints makes it miles ahead by default. My printer actually functions now so I can't say I have any regrets.
That said, this was a terrible business move. Under no circumstance is giving viability to formerly unknown competitors a good thing. Reddit may still have the raw numbers, but the fact that Lemmy and Kbin are as usable as they are is a problem Spez created.
Realtalk, once Hytale drops I'm probably dropping Minecraft. It's everything I want them to add but without me having 13 years of experience with the game. Something new with QOL and easy modding sounds great.
We knew they had sat down with tournament organizers around the Paris major and expressed displeasure regarding partner teams and the like, but Valve is such a slow-moving monolith that it's still a little unexpected that they actually did anything about it.
Not sure why the cost of gas matters, either, when they have no problem blowing money on Biden gas pump stickers and creating drag on their car by attaching as many Trump and US flags as possible.
If I need photos printed, I'll go to a shop. It doesn't happen that often and, frankly, inkjets suck so badly that I honestly doubt I'd save time or money owning one. All the headaches I've dealt with just trying to print basic stuff like shipping labels and documents disappeared the moment I bought a Brother laser printer.
The publishers ruined Disco Elysium for me. I'd buy this solely for it, had they not fucked over the people who spent years building the world. They're never seeing a cent from me.
Probably Duke Nukem Forever. I told myself that if it were ever $1, I'd buy it.
Then it was in the $1 tier of a Humble Bundle. Gonna be honest, still not really worth it, I don't think. Never finished it, didn't really think it was that fun.
No, just the Republican Americans. The ones who say they're Christian but completely ignore how often the Bible outright says to love those around us in favor of hatred because of some irrelevant thing that doesn't affect them in the slightest, like race or sexuality.
The rest of us normal people are capable of acceptance of each other and desire for the greater good.
In which case yes there's a high likelihood of a PC port six months to a year from the launch date. Square Enix has a history of terrible, short-sighted deals, but they'd have to be especially stupid or Sony would have to be exceptionally loaded to get them to never launch FF16 on PC.
Sure, but we have a huge chunk of the country inhabited mostly by tumbleweeds and people with less-than-awesome education. Plus, the concept of Area 51 has been around so long and has been so prolific it's been constantly referenced in the mainstream, from Scooby-Doo to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
