New games don’t make as much money as old games that people are nostalgic for. I hate that fact but its what the AAA industry has turned towards

I think the issue is calling a next gen port a remaster. Yea it is technically a remaster but adding that to the title makes it seem like more then that.

If said game was released as definite or something nobody would be talking rn

The post I had replied to was deleted but basically it was someone who basically said kys

I believe that just makes you look worse :(

That’s a bit rude. Sure OPs point is a bit extreme, but no need to wish death on someone for having a differencing opinion

unabashed shills

Damn I’m a shill now :( sorry I enjoyed be able to game when I didn’t have good hardware.

Cloud gaming is not for everyone but just cause some people found use in it doesn’t make them a shill. Everyone I know from cloud gaming circles only used it till getting a decent PC or console

I used it for a good few years when it first was a thing. It’s pretty decent when you are close to the server and have stable enough connection. I played quite a through few steam games this way through geforce now. Even cyberpunk 2077 was a great experience on it.

It’s a great stepping stone between getting new hardware but once I finally got my PC I just stopped using it.

Now gfn was the only good implementation cause it used your existing steam (and I hear now Xbox) library, instead of being locked to the app itself, so you could even see it as a extension to your setup

all stuff that’ll be online within 24 hours, no new gameplay content

I’d imagine most people using YouTube aren’t looking for TV/movie style content, rather the user created stuff. Or maybe TV shorter clips.

This is true. Best use is still using something like soulseek for offline files but algorithm actually let’s you discover outside of the same couple dozen bands

It’s easier to sell honestly. It’s a concept most people understand at a base level at least so it’s marketable.

Its very easy to play the older AC games. Download a rom/iso and emulator

This is exactly why emulation is a needed thing.

Minecraft is probably the only game I’ve beaten and revisited. But that’s cause beating it isn’t really the end of the game

This is the biggest thing. A lot of my friends simply think Kbin and Lemmy are inferior and look outdated, which they are if you have only used the social media site called reddit, not the link aggravater called reddit

I know this is satire but I would definitely play a mode like this. I may only be 20 but a 10 hour shift plus nearly 2 hour train rides kill me

My take is less about the game itself, and the idea of games increasing its price at all. I’ve tried the demo and its a game right up my alley plus I enjoy games like it such as satisfactory. It just doesn’t stomach well to me of a digital game going up in price.

I have seen multiple people mention mods at this point and I don’t really count modding as part of the value of a game since modders aren’t getting paid when I buy the game. Plus really any game can be infinite if you enjoy it enough and mods exist for it.

Well yes, if you do the math it would be cheaper then the $30 price point it’s been for years. Actually it adds up to the same as a 20% sale of the $30 price.

I get the point you make. I can accept a game that never goes on sale. The main problem I have is it increasing price after 3 years out of early access.

For me the major red flag is the price going up for inflation. The game went up in price when it left Early Access already and that was 3 years ago. But now the game is being sold as a full game sure it might get updates but one can expect a finished product to at least stay the same price, not go up.

As for sales, at least on PC games are pretty much always on sale either through steam directly or from sites like humble or greenmangaming. You can pretty much pickup any not recent game for 20% off at anytime if you search gg.deals or a similar service.

This game gets universal praise and I’d love to play it but as a PC gamer I refuse to as I wouldn’t want to support a dev who not only never does sales but raises the price because of “inflation”
