I go back to history of games. My favorites through time…not 1 of them had micro transactions.

Uncharted…none Eye of the beholder and all early DnD games…none Civilization (up to about civ 4)…none And pretty much all pc games before 1989.

Just create and sell me a finished game on media I can keep. Why is this so fucking hard nowadays


Fuck, we used to do this in the 90s. Big old farmhouses on land no longer used for farming. Owner of the land charged $2 to park and that was it. Bands would play, people mingled, some people would sell bags of chips and soda out of their trunks.

So much better…before the dark times, before the internet.


Quote Users over 13 years old will be prompted to use the facial-analysis software to estimate their age

So the answer is to do a facial scan? I thought companies were manic to get verified phone numbers on people to use as a common index for data collection. Now its facial scans. Every company wants a facial fucking scan. Government wants facial scans or hires 3rd parties e.g.unemployemt insurance verification…they also require facial scans.

It’s absolutely ridiculous


Back in the early 90s I would walk into a store, buy a game that came in a box with a manual, take it home and it was mine.

I bought the 1st Civilization like this. I still have it. No Internet needed.

That’s the way it should be. All the online, dlc, mini boxes, group play, create online accounts…fuck all that shit.


How many other ‘traffic’ apps have a feature to report police locations. Waze I know had it.




Yes thats it. I gotta go find that disk somewhere in my old folders now


What was the name of that motorcycle racing game where you also beat up other racers all while racing to Soundgarden… That one.


Uncharted

You can pick up any game in the series and you get a complete story.

Plus imho, one of the best series in recent memory



User, I noticed you weren’t sharing telemetry data, location data,and all your photos with Samsung. I corrected that for you and locked the settings…you’re welcome.


I need another Uncharted style game. I don’t want another always online, micro transaction filled, lootbox earning grindfest filled with people who wish cancer on your mother because you don’t play as well as they think you should




Guardians of the galaxy is a recent game that had that super hero team play pretty tight. It was fun and challenging I thought. Suicide squad, not really



Not as if Lucas was doing it any favors with the prequels either. Only made them to cash in on toy revenue once the original contract was over



Seeing the windows 3.1 interface took me back to a much happier time.


The problem with 6 is that the play mode is too structured… Especially early on. Theres not much room for custom play… Every game takes on the same form. Civ 4 was the best in series



Fuck. Using nova kept me sane. Even though they say, nothing changes…it will. With an analytics company, if they spend that much on nova, they are either going to go behind a paywall, or start data mining the shit from every user.

Remember, if the product is free, then you’re the product


If corporations would just end their love affair with exchange online and fucking outlook, maybe windows would go away


I didn’t know works of warcraft was still a thing. Glad I shook that monkey of my back years ago




Diablo 4 sucked. It really did. I wanted my money back. Diablo 3 I replayed for years, lots of fun. But 4 just seemed like a grind with no real after win bonus play at all. It was a slosh to get through even once. And once done I didn’t want to try it again from scratch with a new character.

Path of exile I liked. This I can get behind
