1. Corporations aren’t your friends, stop stanning
2. Larian doesn’t own Baldur’s Gate and wouldn’t be the ones making decisions for BG4, that would be Wizards Of The Coast

Naw, the companies will miss the point and demand studios go as cheap and dirty as they want for Helldivers 3 and Baldur’s Gate 4

I got this on Steam lately, don’t know anything about it, but I remember it was kind of a big deal.

Honestly Console gaming will be nothing but a distant memory in 10 years

You know the PS5 is being discontinued with no PS6 on the horizon right?

I would be all in favor of “Use it or lose it” rights to Digital Distribution… Don’t offer a reasonable way to access a product? Can’t bitch when Abandonware sites give it away for nothing.

This is what I keep telling people, we already live in a post-scarcity world… We just can’t reap the benefits because Capitalism forces us to pretend we don’t.

Kinda like how Back 4 Blood was never meant as a follow up to Left 4 Dead, just a generic zombie shooter…

Then they realized they had ONE GUY who worked on Left 4 Dead, not even in a leadership or management role, meaning they could legally market it as “From the creators of Left 4 Dead”, game wasn’t even called “Back 4 Blood” till they realized that

Once again, VR Players are left in the dust

Apparently it’s due to DRM concerns…

So they could just remove the DRM?

Blizzcon died when one of the nerdiest companies in the world reacted with shock when diehard RPG fans didn’t want Diablo 4 to be an oversimplified pay-to-win mobile game, a racist one at that as Diablo Immoral removed all the black characters because “China doesn’t like the Witch Dcotor!”

The reason why the 90’s and early 2000’s was a golden age in gaming? Game developers got to make their own games, instead of what Shareholders wanted

as an author myself, I pretty much plan on doing this in my will

Like Back 4 Blood, they weren’t selling a game, they were selling a dev’s name

RIP Baldur’s Gate, at least you had one final hurrah with 3

What’s wrong with the privacy policy? Can’t they literally not see your messages unless you get reported?

“OBJECTMON ARE STUPID! GAMEFREAK WOULDN’T DO THIS IN THE GOLDEN ERA” - Voltorb says hi, and Sudowoodo is literally a bug being a tree “REAL WORLD ANIMALS ARE LAZY! GAMEFREAK WOULDn’T DO THIS IN A REAL POKEMON GAME!” - Seel says hi “Okay, that’s just food, but now it’s an animal.” - Diglett looks more like a hotdog than a mole, let’s be honest here

I keep trying to tell people this…

The GOP doesn’t want me to be a guy again or to be a “Second Class Woman”

They want me dead

Yeah it’s an updated version of the demo they had me play for the Closed Playtest

Well funny thing is, HOTS used to work like Overwatch 2, but they changed it to work more like OW1 in an update called “HOTS 2.0”, which was very well received.

Personally I get you though, Battle Passes and other FOMO nonsense are cancer and I don’t want it in games
