Delusion isn’t a good look!

With the exception of chat, try Old School RuneScape. Good game for passive gameplay as well as more intensive/focused gameplay.

I’d say a reasonable amount of this is due to how many of them shove their own ideologies into their reporting, with not even a slight attempt to remain objective or neutral.

Not in every game. Some games make it reasonably fair, such as Elder Scrolls Online which makes it possible to obtain the lootbox items in other ways.

And this is exactly why Ubisoft is dying. Good riddance.

No, if anything, we need to boycott games with battle passes. I’m not a fan of lootboxes but I’d take them any day over a battle pass. Don’t pressure me to play specific ways, don’t exploit FOMO to try to get me to grind or spend money. I find that a LOT more predatory than lootboxes, at least in games where they’re optional.

That’s fair but what I mean is that Sega wasn’t afraid to try new things and attempt to push the boundaries. Nowadays, everyone plays it too safe.

What reversal? It’s still in play. The idea is to use them to force other nations to play fair with us.

Ah, didn’t know that it’s on Steam. Well, there’s that at least. Still not a fan of console exclusivity either way, though.

This. Aside from the Genesis and its mega success, Sega’s hardware was woefully underused. It’s a shame, too, because they were at the forefront of experimentation back in the day.

The DS 3D was pretty weak, though. Don’t get me wrong, great games like The Force Unleashed and Assassin’s Creed: Altaïr’s Chronicles are amazing games but the 3D in both was almost worse than PS1/Saturn 3D. Loved my NDS but I get why games tended to go for 2D.

As for my opinion on the subject matter, the aforementioned Sega Saturn is my pick. The potential that console had could have delivered truly incredible games and memories but Sega made one too many stupid business decisions.

Both. The future isn’t in consoles, it’s in console-like PCs. Just wait until Valve drops the Fremont, I believe it’ll change absolutely everything.

I hope they’re prepared to have a fraction of the success they would have if they didn’t continue the absurd concept of console exclusivity.

I’m not talking about Lemmy. I’m talking about literally every community I’ve looked. Aside from fanboys being fanboys, the reaction has been nothing but outrage.

In keeping with another post where I ended my arguments here, I won’t debate the point any further but guys: this post is how you conduct a discussion like a mature adult. Learn from it.

Yep! When you open the Steam menu, you can access a full-featured desktop mode. It makes the device virtually limitless outside of the software issues you mentioned. And I agree entirely that it’s ridiculous to see these companies ignoring Linux the way they do.

Hopefully you enjoy your second try of SteamOS!

True. Another part of the problem is that a lot of people don’t find any joy in seeing others happy, even if they don’t really get it. We should start being happier about others finding happiness, especially when that happiness is found in simple and wholesome things.

This is exactly why y’all lost, but that’s the last I’ll be contributing to this thread. As I’ve said, I’m not here for politics.

The problem is that a company can only push their greed so far before they start losing people. Up until now, most of the Nintendo hate came from their anti-emulation crusade. Now, it seems like everyone and their brother is talking about just how absurd the entirety of this launch is.

More like the Fediverse at large has an issue with people who feel the need to make everything political and if you disagree, they act as if you’re worse than combover mustache man.

I’m here to chat about stuff I like but sadly, I still run into BS politics.
