Looking for to be sleeping, I really don’t give a shit about that.



Dark Souls.

I played Demons Souls and it was awesome, but Dark Souls is so confuse, I couldn’t understand shit about the story, and it’s not that hard, harder than Demons Souls but no that hard.




Good to know about that. I’m not from EU tho. Also I’m not in position to help others in person, I’m just trying to survive, but I could help with a signature to give it more reach.

My comment is because I’ve seen this on Reddit a few months ago in general communities, not just gaming focused ones.

I honestly don’t care about the state of games, I think people have the decision to stop killing games the whole time, just stop paying for shitty games.

There are good indie companies doing a great job.



Same as you alone can’t do much for games, I alone can’t do much for the homeless. And how do you know I’m not the one in need?


I’ve never seen signature for other things get so popular on the internet.



Why is this so important? First world problems… Why don’t you guys make signatures to improve the life of homeless people? Stop putting ads everywhere? Privacy invasive companies? Free food for the needed?

This is bullshit, honestly. I hate AAA companies in general, but this is nonsense. It feels like a bunch of teenagers signed it.

EDIT: Let me help ya, I’ll down vote my own comment too. Together we can!


God of War 2018 after playing gow for my whole childhood, it’s interesting


There’s Descenders (bike) and Descenders Next (ski/snow)


What a game!!! I played it back on PS3, almost did 100%, I remember I missed some animal I couldn’t get it to spawn no matter what.

I’ll play it again soon.


I doesn’t matter, they’re supporting Google, they should do the best they can for more variety of models, even if it means not being “ultra super highly extreme private”.


Let’s congrats Graphene team for supporting the Google hardware for so long, they surely helped Google profit a lot given people buying Pixel just to use Graphene.


God Hand is a hidden gem, the game is hard tho.
Crash of the Titans
Crash Twinsanity
Black
Midnight Club 3
NFS Underground 2
Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks
Gun
Burnout
Darkwatch (hidden gem too)

There are more but these worth mentioning because they can’t be played without emulation on PC, so it fits well to play on PCSX2.


Well I just download well tested games by others, if it’s trusted by many and have worked just fine, I think there’s nothing to worry about.


Yes, that’s true, poor people just want to have some fun, but society try to make it wrong, you need to follow all the guidelines of morality. But nobody talk about rich people destroying the world, spending on luxuries, exploring workers, and doing this kind of crap with the gaming industry.


I didn’t have a good experience with Linux, I tried twice, I’ve a laptop wit hybrid GPU AMD + NVIDIA, and NVIDIA is painful on Linux. I loose a lot of performance playing on Linux, tried Fedora last time, OpenSUSE before that.

I might try again eventually.


That’s right, it’s exactly what I think, you are one way or another helping a game to be known. The same strategy people talked about why Microsoft don’t shut every Office cracker, they want normal people to use it and get used to it, so companies will use it too, eventually, and they can audit some IT companies, charge a hell amount of money if they use pirated software.

I agree with everything, but I’ll still pirate AAA games, just for the experience. I classify publishers/developers companies like this:

  • Companies it doesn’t even worth playing to avoid indirect marketing: Ubisoft, EA
  • Companies that at least it worth pirating: Activistion, Rockstar, etc…

Let’s be honest, the games are good, probably made by some people who love what they were doing, but then it was put behind a shitty business model, because developers are just trying to make a living while executives trying to harvest all the money.

I think as the time goes, developers will start making their choices better, leave predatory companies, start or join indie companies, and I, at the same time, will migrate to a more indie focused gaming.


Me neither, I’m just saying, the prices are too high, the games I bought on Steam I always waited at least 50% discount.

But now it’s everything $0,00.


It was launched with full price, it’s not even remastered, just a port. I’ve paid for this already on PS3.


I’ve a dual boot with Linux + Windows, my games are isolated on Windows where I’m not logged in anything important. I can just encrypt my Linux partition for a possible vulnerability. But I really think that it’s hard to happen, at least it never happened to me, I’ve pirated before a few times.

Also it’s allowed to pirate on my country, it’s just not allowed to redistribute it, so I don’t need a VPN.

Just download from trusted sources and it’s fine. At this point I’d rather to trust the community providing pirated games than big companies harvesting my data.


I finally decided to go full piracy against big companies
Tired of this abusive business model that big companies use on games. - I see a game on Steam with some decent price - I click on it - Dozens of DLCs, "Gold", "Deluxe" "Enhanced" version to enjoy the full game - Then you decide to pay for this shit anyway - But then the game is behind a launcher, that needs online connection and account even if it's full single-player - The game sometimes are just a port from an old console with almost full price, a game that you've paid for before - The game needs a hell amount of updates do become playable - And so much more... Steam did an excellent job keeping me away from piracy, they provide too much good feature, discounts and etc... But not even Steam can make miracles against those abusive practices. I must say RDR1 port was the last drop to me, It's game I played back on PS3 on my teenager time, I wanted to have some good memories and play it again, guess what, a full AAA price on a port, it's not even a remaster. I've been avoiding EA and Ubisoft games for years, but still buying from big companies on Steam. Now I just give up, there's no more hope for AAA games, only mercenary companies are left: EA, Ubisoft, Rockstar, Activision, 2K, Bungie etc... - EA: Games with a hell amount of DLCs, the same FIFA every single year at full price, launcher required, they don't even try to hide anymore - Ubisoft: Same thing as EA, lots of DLCs, missed some game content from an old Prince of Persia because they shut an old launcher integrated to the game. - Rockstar: Launchers everywhere, charging a full price for the same game multiple times (GTA V). - Activision: You pay a full price and it still comes with a hell amount of micro-transactions, killed COD. - 2K: Out of nowhere decided to add a launcher to every old game they had (Bioshock and others I think) saying it was "QoL" update, now they decided to remove it, too late. The new Borderlands 4 terribly optimized, here we go with some dozens of updates again. - Bungie: The live service model, removed a lot of old paid contents from Destiny, the game will eventually die. I'll still pay for small companies games, because I can, but those big ones, honestly, I don't give a shit anymore, they could be erased from existence together with all their games, I really don't care. Some smaller companies I've had a good experience and I think it's worth paying for: Ghost Ship Games, No More Robots, Hello Games, Techland, Frictional Games, Annapurna Interactive. Some companies are in a limbo to me, I'm not entirely sure about it: Capcom, Bethesda, Warner, Square Enix. So, that's it, I just downloaded Spider Man Remastered and RDR from FitGirl, it worked seamless, I didn't have a single issue. I could even add as non-Steam game and use Steam input (thanks Steam), I'll probably use some script to move to savegames data to the cloud, and let the packed games on an external HDD (finally, I'll own my games). Another thing that's hard to ditch to me is achievement tracker, I know we have AchievementWatcher but it doesn't work too well on pirated games. It's something I'll need to get used, not a big deal tbh. I'll probably use the money I'd spend on AAA games to explore some indie games. And AAA games are now always pirate. Obs.: The companies I've mentioned here are from my own experience, this isn't meant to be an Wikipedia of good/bad companies, I know there are more decent and bad companies out there.
