I’m betting outdated views on piracy

Yeah I’m definitely not holding out any hope for a PC port, Vanillaware seems pretty dedicated to not doing those

I usually take a break between major patches. 11.1 looks really good though, I’m absolutely going to be playing that.

Then why are you in the discussion

My point was that I didn’t even have to look at the forums to know they were fuckin miserable for those games, not that they’re the only bad parts. Just write it off as a fuckin nasty cesspit not even worth digging through for troubleshooting threads

No, I don’t. That’s my point, they’re so unmoderated it’s all just bullshit, and the problem is that it frequently and regularly devolves into hateful bullshit. I wish Valve would have a more robust moderation system so the forums could be more useful. However, Valve just pushed the problem to the developers and doesn’t ensure any baseline level of quality between games.

As much as I do actually like Valve and Steam, this is a big issue and has been forever.

Frankly I’m shocked people don’t recognize how prevalent it is. So many game releases have discussion forums plagued with “anti-woke” bullshit plastered everywhere. I just write off the forums for any game that features a black or female main character, let alone LGBT representation.

You definitely aren’t looking very hard

No mods online? That sucks big, there’s several mods I really don’t want to do without.

It’s a great place to create extremists, there is basically no moderation and people say some fucking awful shit on Steam forums. I think this is a long time coming, honestly.

At this rate? Leaving most of the internet probably

They are capable of it, but I don’t really see why they would. Making the tokens cost more gold would mean less people willing to buy them on the AH and therefore less people selling tokens. I think the prices have just exploded because of the mount releasing. As someone else mentioned on here, I believe Blizzard just sets a minimum price for tokens.

You can not sell gold to Blizzard

Edit: I stand corrected, you can purchase tokens and turn them into game time, but I didn’t know they could be turned into $15 battle net balance. This mount does, indeed, cost less gold than the original Brutosaur (or did before token prices skyrocketed)

Yeah it’s always been a status symbol. Nowadays it isn’t even that useful because they put auction houses in the expansion cities anyway, so it’s basically just a status symbol for people who spend WAY too much time on the auction house. This mount isn’t even half as P2W as people would have you believe.

That thing is still earnable every so often in game if you catch it on the black market

They did not remove it, people still use them all the time and it’s available on the “black market” (an NPC that sells normally unavailable things) every so often. The mount was just an enormous gold sink for people with a ton of money.

They probably meant 170k gold in-game

Also what they haven’t said is that the price is set by players of the game,. When someone buys a WoW token and exchanges it for gold, that’s because a player has paid them with gold they earned for the token. These tokens can be then used to pay for your monthly subscription.

The TRPG “Troika!” has a module that is basically exactly this called “Get It At Sutlers”

It just generates a dungeon crawl contained entirely within a department store by the name of Sutlers

I feel the exact opposite, most FPS games are much stiffer and unnatural feeling compared to a good third person game. I feel like control had a nice flow to the controls in particular.

Kind of disappointed that it’s an FPS game, Remedy has always been great at third person games
