A) yes it does.

B) I’m assuming that you are somehow against this pro consumer movement. If so: why?



I’m not mad I just don’t trust the Devs of Star Citizen. I think their monetization as a whole reeks of a scam and I don’t understand why people defend it.


Oh it’s not one tech demo, it’s several. They aren’t connected. If they aren’t connected it isn’t a game. People just don’t want to admit they were scammed when they “bought” that fancy ship in that “game”.


I didn’t even know that game existed until I saw headlines saying it failed. It wasn’t marketed well and I would bet that was on purpose. I think they knew it was terrible, why else wouldn’t they try to sell it?


It’s easy to ignore actually. Where game? I don’t care how pretty your tech demo is. Where game?



I’m happy for you if you do, I just can’t justify spending what publishers are asking most of the time. Every now and then a title comes along that for me is worth it, those times are getting more and more infrequent as the prices climb.



Both of those are too high in my currency, let alone in USD.


  1. I’ll believe it when I see it.
  2. I’m not paying premium prices for a game that came out when 14 years ago.

I’m pretty sure the new standard is around $90CAD now.




It’s about Nintendo and their rabid legal practices.





This is me being pedantic, but here goes: best work ever meaning this is as good as it gets, it’s all down hill from here?

I know they mean best work yet but c’mon man, say what you mean.


Any sequel to Baldur’s Gate 3 is going to have to be better than any developer will be able to deliver with Hasbro sticking their nose in the development process. (which you know they will because of how well BG3 did)

I don’t have high hopes.



The PC version is a much older release. GameSpy was a thing when it came out, I don’t think it’s a good benchmark for how this upcoming rerelease is going to be.









Didn’t they also threaten to basically abandon WH3 if Pharoah didn’t sell well? I could be misremembering, I haven’t followed things too closely.



Poorly coded is what I meant. I was trying to be funny



They are a company that exists to make a profit, they aren’t your friend.


I bet you’re right, they didn’t show any gameplay in that video at all.


That is damning considering Fallout 76 is on steam.



Anyone who gets offended by being told Russia is in the wrong with regards to the current conflict in Ukraine is either ignorant or an asshole.
