This shit is NOT fun and it pisses me off.

Yep sounds like a final fantasy minigame

I had an open world Terminator game back in 93 or 94. You could play Kyle Reese and protect Sarah, or as the Terminator and hunt her. Graphics weren’t great but that fact that you could go anywhere in the city blew my mind at the time

Cats are a drop in the climate change bucket, once again pushing responsibility onto consumers rather than the industries that cause the majority of carbon emissions. Eliminating SUVs isn’t going to solve climate change any more than banning plastic straws.

It was the characters that killed. They were just so flat and unlikable, they were all like cardboard cutouts of tropes except rinoa and Laguna’s friends. I spent my time helping them win and hoping they’d lose lol

I do love he junction system though, it was brilliant and saved the game for me

I hope they keep squalls dialog

[Who cares?]

[Existence is pain]

Sure, change the only thing I liked about a game with a terrible story and flat unlikable characters, I’ll buy that

between ‘the reasons aren’t good enough’ and ‘there are no reasons whatsoever,’

You can move off of 7 easily, for free, you wouldn’t be giving up any functionality you can’t get elsewhere, in fact you’d be gaining some, and your machine is a lot less likely to get compromised and used to send me spam.

There are no reasons whatsoever. Well, other than “I WANT IT I WANT IT”. You have a lot of nerve expecting me to respect that, and even more nerve expecting a game company to spend time and money accommodating it. You are a baby. Maybe it sounds condescending, maybe it is, but it’s also true.

Game works fine if you’re on an OS from the last decade

Running an unsupported OS on the public internet is like refusing the covid vaccine and going to work with a fever. Would you listen to someone who does that? I wouldn’t, because any justification they come up with is going to be pants on head stupid.

functional software was just yanked away

It was updated. It wasn’t yanked away, it still works fine on modern OS’s. It’s silly to assume devs will continue targeting an OS that is out of support and irrelevant. Do you expect it to run on DOS too?

Nevermind that as long as your OS works for gaming

It doesn’t, lmao. That’s what this article is about.

the last properly good version of Windows

8 and 8.1 were significantly more stable and performant than 7 and did not include the ads or spyware that is in 10. They failed because babies didn’t like the way they looked and threw a tantrum about it instead of just installing classicshell.

Cons outweighing the pros doesn’t magically mean there are no pros.

The only pro you’ve mentioned is “I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT IT”. Rockstar doesn’t give a shit what you want. They want to stop wasting their devs’ time accommodating a dead platform.

That’s a very narrow edge case that only applies to hobbyists. Luckily, those are exactly the sort of people who have the time and motivation to figure out how to get this working. It’s not like being unable to play gta4 on a 15 year old machine is going to negatively affect your life, if you want to play it that bad use a modern machine.

If you’re still on 7 it’s because 10 is a frustrating mess of spyware, failed tablet schemes, and surprise forced updates

If you’re still on 7 it’s because you’re dumb. Move to 10, buy a Mac, switch to Linux, whatever. There’s no valid reason to stay on an unsupported OS on a goddamn gaming rig.

Still - switch to Linux already.

Ubuntu 9.04 released the same year as win 7. It was supported for 5 years, vs win 7’s 14 years. Yet you don’t see anyone bitching and moaning that third party devs aren’t supporting it anymore. Strange, huh?

You’re essentially describing the pixel remaster, which already exists

Win 10 was a free upgrade for what, 4 years? If you’re still on 7 you asked for this.

You can tell Hexbear is super communist by how much they simp for Putin, an unashamed oligarch who’s so reactionary he gives Desantis wet dreams. The Lemmy instance where horseshoe theory has been hammered into a circle.
