Ballotopedia has past years, but I haven’t seen any info for this year yet.
I’ve heard rumors of low turnout, but I suspect it is around 60% based on previous years.
Edit: WaPo says 65% this year. Can’t find anyone else reporting on it.
I don’t understand how 51% of Americans can think the “grab-her-by-the-pussy” con artist is the best choice for president.
They don’t, but due to a combination of voter disenfranchisement and apathy, voter turnout is usually around 50%-60% max. 2020 was a very large turnout at 66.8%. So 51% of 60% think he is. Still too many, but if we had a way to get every eligible voter a ballot, it would likely be different
That might be part of it. The shooting doesn’t do it for me, and the movement feels bad unless you nail it.
I’ll for sure have to see how it plays out in match. Part of it is I also am not a fan of MOBAs, and Deadlock seems to pull a lot from them. We were also looking for a game that my partner could play kinda like Overwatch, bit I think she’ll bounce pretty hard off Deadlock.
Finally got an invite to Deadlock. After watching a let’s play and messing around with different heroes in the Hero Sandbox, I think there is just too much. I know it is a MOBA shooter combo, but between the movement mechanics, skills, and item shop, it just kinda seems they added stuff just because other titles in either genre have them. I might still give it a few matches, but it definitely dropped in priority.
Been playing through Raft again with my partner, and that’s been a blast. I love a survival crafter, and realized she had not played since the full release. Kinda a cozy survival game if that is even a thing. The only downside isn’t it has been moving our normal sleep schedule later, and we need to move it earlier 
Huh, I have noticed that. I’ll have to keep an eye out for it. I 100% agree any slowness is outweighed by ad blockers though.
Good news, there is cross device syncing. You just have to make a Firefox account. That might be a no go for some folks, but it is an option. If Firefox on mobile is slower, I have not noticed the difference. Have they just refused to try it?
Prey kinda kicked off the immersive genre. I think the thing folks are not getting is that this is not a best game of all time list, even though they say “100 best.” It is a “100 Favorite Games of the PC Gamer Staff” list. It is going to be different than anyone’s exact taste. There are a ton of games on there that I think would not be in my top 100, but I am not mad or confused about it. It’s just something someone else is into.
What if I told you I find Valheim to be just fine, so I am surprised it is on this list? The subjectiveness of enjoying a game is a very large spectrum
True. They did mention Doom and Doom: Eternal as being different enough to warrant both. Don’t think that is true for BG2 and BG3 though
There are not even 10 bad games on that list. Might not be to your taste, but that does not make them shit
They set a rule that only one game from a series can be on the list. Half-Life 2 probably just beat 1 in the very subjective scoring.
Nah, it is a long list. I missed Dishonored 2 on there.
Good, because it is number 90
Oh, totally. But the folks making the list might not even have thought of it if none of them play it.
No, just saying it would not have made my top 100 list. Seemed like a funny thing to say it is an AI list because of not having Factorio
KOTOR 2 on the list instead of KOTOR is an odd choice, but I do not hate it. With the missing content mod, that game is great
All lists like this are incredibly subjective and by definition about engagement. I wouldn’t call it bait, but it was definitely created for engagement. That is not necessarily a bad thing since it can generate some fun discussions.
I’m not AI and I really dislike Factorio. I would say it is a bit of a niche game, but Rimworld also seems niche. Probably just not to anyone at PC Gamer’s taste.
It can’t anymore. Project 2025 will happen, and the guardrails have been removed. Welcome to totalitarianism
