Capitalism innovates
This also of course means you can no longer play the game after they take down their servers.
Then the team preserving a private server gets hit with a cease and desist

over the next few years we’re going to see every game on earth become an MMO

Gamers deserve it for continuing to support imperialism the video game
It’s a invented problem to justify always online DRM.
Of course. And it will just lead to a situation where you will need to pirate a copy to be able to play it offline.
These schemes only give paying customers a worse experience than pirates.

Oh no I was really looking forward to call of duty (and this is true) number 21
what will I do now
To be fair, the game currently advertised as GTA VI will actually be GTA XV
Deeply unserious game franchise
Except it’s also somehow the most successful.
Not surprising, it’s like the mcu, they don’t have any new ideas or even good old ideas but they just have to keep shoveling the shit out because it’s profitable.
I think saying they “have to” is absolving them of a little more than I would.
This is one of those things that they will continue to get away with because people will continue to buy it literally no matter what they do. I don’t think individual actions in “I won’t buy this” matter systemically but when it comes to stuff like this it definitely does matter.
A personal decision like that will never matter. Only organized collective action could make a difference
Indie games win again
I’m still playing Terraria
Dead Cells player saying hello!
Our final last update for real this time is coming any moment now

Before: Upgarde ur foking SSD
Now: Upgrade ur foking internet
How in the absolute fuck is it even possible for a game to be 300gigs AND need you to stream the textures? How could anyone think streaming textures from a fucking server would be beneficial for literally any person or purpose?
Because it’s a lie
AAA studios have invested higher and higher budgets to seek larger and larger audiences to deliver lower and lower quality products.
Indies don’t have the same budget problems, so a smaller investment can still be successful with a smaller audience. That’s why Indies are killing it these days.
it’s not even about larger audiences anymore no one introduces 4k texture streaming into their game to reach a bigger audience. it’s about milking their already existing fanbase with a new price tag, and a new slew of predatory microtransactions.
Yes, that adds a compounding factor. Instead of efficiency, they try to sell the largest package and milk as much as they can.
Peggle keeps winning. Best $2 I spent in a long time
Peggle 2 any good? Or should I just stick with the original?
Damn I miss PopCap games, before everything ruined by fucking EA.
I rate it. The original is the classic but 2 is more of the same for the most part.
Not sure, just have Peggle Deluxe and Nights… the mobile app is micro transaction BS so I’m avoiding it.
oh, you’re not talking about the mobile app? Can you still buy it on PC? How about MacOS?
It’s probably on MacOS. I have both Pegglez on Steam.
