I can't be the only person who still has a huge problem with the concept of "always online" because 100% unless it is strictly a multiplayer experience, there is no consumer-friendly excuse that our games or consoles should require on online connection to play, period.

Also when servers eventually shutdown you lose access to the game you paid for. That’s another gripe of mine. I always felt like there should be a law stating that if you shutdown an online-only game, you have to release the source code so that fans can make their own community servers like with NFS:W, Drift City, etc. or at least play offline worst-case scenario.

Sorry, "consumer-friendly"? Wait, you actually think they understand...let alone give a single shred of a damn...about 'consumer-friendly'? After all this time, I would think that the AAA gaming companies would have made their intention clear. Slowly drag everyone's expectations to simply *always paying*. Want to reload? Pay me. Want to play? Pay me. Want to level up? PAY. ME. How many examples do we need? Shit, Diablo Immoral should have been a showstopper....but if you're wondering, that made *all* of the money it took to generate the game back **IN 24 HOURS**. With that sort of showing, there's literally nowhere to go except towards more of these predatory practices. Why? Because as long as you open that wallet, you can talk as much shit as you want about a game, or gaming company...at the end of the day, the Dollar will always drown you out. Because these companies aren't in it to make good games, ever. Did you think it was coincidence that they constantly "remaster" old games just so you can play them on modern systems and they look good? Hell no! It's because bringing the graphics up to snuff for a modern system costs them almost nothing compared to making a new game. So it's just....pure $_$ PROFIT baby! And pure profit is exactly what they want, what they care about, and literally the *only* think that they will go towards in the future. If y'all thought D:I was a microtransaction hell, just wait for Diablo 4: Return o --- [to get the rest of this game title, purchase the "Full Title" DLC now for only 0.99!!]

The thing about "do you guys not have phones?" is that it wasn't about the phone, it wasn't even about the platform that it was on. The outcry from the crowd was not about whether it could be run on a phone, but rather that phone games are known for being insatiably predatory. People knew the monetization of diablo immortal was going to be bad. It had nothing to do with it not being on PC, really, it had a lot more to do with the fact that they were making a phone game, targeting the phone audience, of which are taken advantage of on a regular basis. Everybody probably as a phone, but that's not why people were upset which is what made the comment so rediculous.

One that I still think about years later because it pissed me off so much: In an interview in either EGM or Game Informer (can't remember which) the director of the first Dead Rising was asked about the font size for tutorials and subtitles being so small - basically anything you'd need to read onscreen - and when the interviewer commented that it could be almost impossible to read for someone without an HDTV, his response was something like "you shouldn't own an Xbox 360 if you don't have an HDTV". Today that comment might not seem so egregious given that every TV made is HD, and they're so much cheaper than they used to be. But back in 2006? They were so damn expensive. And as somebody who grew up poor, and had to wait two years after the 360 originally released to be able to afford one, that comment just rubbed me the wrong way. Like, f**k you dude! If I paid for the console and your game, I should be able to read the onscreen font! HDTVs weren't nearly as ubiquitous as they are now, and my experiences with 360 games on my old, heavy-ass CRTV were just fine. It just seemed like such an out-of-touch, elitist thing to say. And I still stand by it being a dick move lol

Another thing about the Diablo Immortal reveal is that within a few hours of being uploaded the video of the reveal became the most downvoted video not only on the Diablo YT channel but on all of KZfaq. They took it down after less than 24 h and a few days later posted an edited version where the boos were a lot more quiet and cheers from other parts were badly mixed in to make it seem everyone was cheering for a mobile game and almost all of the Q&A was cut. That didn't get as many downvotes and lasted a few days before they took it down and since then there are no official Diablo Immortal reveal video posted by Blizzard anywhere.

Rly? "the most downvoted video on all of YT"? That sounds off. I know since the DiabloYT video was deleted we can't check, but knowing 'KZfaq Rewind 2018: Everyone Controls Rewind' got 20M dislikes (20,000,000) seems to throw doubt onto that. (I know YT Rewind was after, but still. "Baby" is probably a better example. Baby had 1.2M dislikes in 2011). EDIT: after some research, it seems the video only hit around 600-700k dislikes (vs ~23k likes), but at the time that was the THIRD most disliked video on YT. Not the most. It was, however, the most disliked gaming video on YT.

This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could.

Carmacks quote does make sense, its not that story can't or does not drive the game but gameplay can make or break any game. There are ip with amazing or compelling writing and design but fails because mechanics are just not good. Some games are considered good and fun because even though there is not much story, bu the gameplay is still dynamic and intense.

It would be easier to laugh off EA's tweets if they didn't then go on to say bad practices are "industry standard" because they do them. They have deliberately targeted single-player and offline games, repeatedly, all in the name of pursuing control and capitalization of their player-base, and their occasional recent nod to single-player (Fallen Order, Dead Space re-make) are not a recognition of customer desires so much as a recognition of just how badly some of their attempts to squeeze their customers have blown up on them. They don't GET to joke about it.

I'm anti piracy when it comes to Indie game studios because they are small and need the money, specially if they made a great videogame and they deserve that you buy their game, but for billion dollar giant companies if they go greedy and start to bloat the game with tons of micro transactions and special characters blocked by paywalls then The Pirate Bay is the way.

We can't keep them being like this anymore, we have to respond in some way that hurt their business like downloading their DLC's via torrent when they are a ton of separate items instead of a full pack, or the full game if they block the half of it behind a paywall, they think they are too big to fall but the more they keep being so shitty the more I will promote piracy, they treat us as if we are stupid sheep that blindly buys whatever crap they have half made and expect us to fall in their next insult to the gaming community in general when they announce their next ¨big hit¨ with more micro transactions and permanent online mode in single player or a grinding nightmare ¨free¨ multiplayer game, they don't deserve our money, better use it to support indie studios that deserve it.

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666

So it's a retroactive fee that they're applying without consent of the developers after-the-fact. From their FAQ that Unity just published: "Who does the Unity Runtime Fee apply to? Unity Personal and Unity Plus: The Unity Runtime Fee will apply to games that have made $200,000 USD or more in the last 12 months AND have at least 200,000 per-game lifetime installs."

The thing about "pride and accomplishment" is when there are locked characters that you need skill and time to get unlocking them actually does feel good. The problem is they locked core characters everyone would want, dramatically increased the amount of grind required, and then offered to let you bypass it with real money. No one feels "pride and accomplishment" about using their credit card, and the people who do actually earn it no longer feel a sense of accomplishment because anyone with money could get it.

In the case of loot boxes, Overwatch 2s switch from loot boxes to battle pass + store got me a bit worried. In the loot box system, enough farming would eventually get you everything (except for a few promotional paywalled stuff), but under the new system, I feel like the free farmable credits would basically be worthless and the things 100% paywalled would represent most cosmetics. This especially under the free to play model.
@RadicalMac
@RadicalMac 5 ай бұрын
When OW1 had lootboxes, you could earn every single cosmetic for free, it was so sad when they moved to a battlepass system and locked new skins behind premium, unearnable currency. I stand by the fact that OW1 had the best lootbox system for any game at the time. Unlike OW2, you couldn't just earn knife skins in Counter Strike or even *all* of the skins in Apex (since a earnable 250 lootbox cap), and many other games were even more predatory with lootboxes.

They're just what games are now!" Look, I have no problem with a game coming out and cool DLC coming later on. But when it's Day 1 stuff, something integral to the game (paying for the ability to play 2 players in Resident Evil 5 was it?), paying for alternate endings and such, it's ridiculous. Taking apart a complete game and making the player pay for pieces of it to complete it is straight up greed. If there's DLC, it should be optional and extra. And worth it.

Then Luther posted his 95 Thesis, which sparked the Protestant Reformation and brought the witnesses back to life. Millions of Catholics were saved. Revelation 12 Satan used the Roman Empire to try to wipe out the early Church, Satan was cast down as the Empire collapsed. Revelation 13 The antichrist beast Popes reigned in power 1,260 years, 538-1798, is the little horn of Daniel 7, son of perdition. The false prophet Jesuit Superior General rose to power from land (earth) of Vatican and has created many deceptions. Revelation 14 Points to great harvest during the Protestant Reformation & wrath on Catholic countries who obey antichrist Pope. Revelation 15 Overcoming saints victorious over the beast. Prelude to 7 vials and judgment on those who support Papal Rome. Revelation 16 1st Vial: The foul sore of atheism was poured out on Catholic France, leaving them with no hope, led to revolution. 2nd Vial: The French Revolution started in 1793, killed 250,000, as France had obeyed the Pope and killed saints. 3rd Vial: The French Revolution spread to rural areas of France, where Protestants had been killed in river areas. 4th Vial: The bloody Napoleonic wars shed the blood of countries who had revered and obeyed the antichrist Pope. 5th Vial: Judgment on the seat of the beast. Papal States invaded in 1798, Pope imprisoned, removed from power. 6th Vial: The Turks vast domain dried up, they were only left with Turkey. They lost control of Palestine in 1917 AD, Israel became a nation again in 1948

@@0x0michael I think a lot of times that's true, but there are many games where the story completely outshines the gameplay. Take my favorite game, Fallout: New Vegas, for example. FNV has terrible gunplay. It's unresponsive, clunky, enemies are meatsponges, etc. Besides just that, the engine was dated on release, the game's a buggy mess, it looks bad, and so at best the game feels mediocre to play. There are fun moments to be had, sure, but it's pretty clear that nobody plays FNV for the gameplay itself. So why do so many in the Fallout community (particularly the hardcore/veteran side) consider FNV to be the best modern Fallout game? The story, the characters, and the world. For many, having quests with interesting stories and clunky gameplay is preferable to quests with generic stories and amazing gameplay. In RPGs especially, a good story is often more important than good gameplay. There are many genres where the inverse is true, and that's fine too, but having a good story can make even bad gameplay more fun, simply because your motivation for playing can come from immersing yourself as the protagonist and imagining the world of the game, rather than just whatever fun the gameplay provides in of itself. The gameplay can't be completely awful, because the story requires at least mediocre gameplay to shine, but it doesn't have to be particularly good either. And none of this even mentions genres with practically no gameplay, such as visual novels.

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation 6 1st Seal: White horse = Roman Empire conquering nations under Trajan 98-117 AD & Gospel spreading rapidly. 2nd Seal: Red horse, bloody civil wars with 32 different Emperors, most killed by the sword. 185-284 AD 3rd Seal: Black horse, economic despair from high taxes to pay for wars, farmers stopped growing. 200-250 AD 4th Seal: Pale horse, 1/4th of Romans died from famine, pestilence; at one point 5,000 dying per day. 250-300 AD 5th Seal: Diocletian persecuted Smyrna church era saints for ten years, blood crying out for vengeance. 303-312 AD 6th Seal: Political upheaval in the declining Roman Empire while the leaders battled each other. 313-395 AD Revelation 7 Sealing of 144,000, the saints, before trumpet war judgments, which led to the fall of the Roman Empire. Revelation 8 1st Trumpet: Alaric and the Goths attacked from the north, the path of hail, and set it on fire. 400-410 AD 2nd Trumpet: Genseric and the Vandals attacked the seas and coastlands, the blood of sailors in water. 425-470 AD 3rd Trumpet: Attila and the Huns scourged the Danube, Rhine & Po rivers area, dead bodies made water bitter. 451 AD 4th Trumpet: Odoacer and the Heruli caused the last Western Emperor (sun), Senate (moon) to lose power. 476 AD With the Western Roman Emperor (restrainer of 2 Thes. 2) removed; the son of perdition Popes took power. Revelation 9 Two woe judgments against the central 1/3rd and eastern 1/3rd of the Roman Empire. 612-1453 AD 5th Trumpet: Locust & scorpions point to Arabia, the rise of the Muslim army. Islam hides Gospel from Arabs. 612-762 AD 6th Trumpet: Turks released to attack Constantinople with large cannons (fire, smoke, brimstone). 1062-1453 AD Revelation 10 The little book is the printed Bible, which was needed after the Dark Ages when Scriptures were banned by Popes. Revelation 11 7th Trumpet: Martin Luther measured Roman Church; found that it’s an apostate church, not part of true temple. The two witnesses are the Scriptures and saints who proclaim the pure Gospel and testify against the antichrist Popes. Papal Church pronounced Christendom dead in 1514 AD. Silence for 3.5 years. Then Luther posted his 95 Thesis, which sparked the Protestant Reformation and brought the witnesses back to life. Millions of Catholics were saved. Revelation 12 Satan used the Roman Empire to try to wipe out the early Church, Satan was cast down as the Empire collapsed.

OMG JOHN CARMACK. Thing is, he said it to the WRITER of his next game. The dude was crushed and soon quit. Also he developed ovulus quest. And worked with rockets. He used home made napalm to break into his school to steal one of the mac2 computers. The only reason he got caught is cause his fat friend couldn't fit through the hole, and ended up opening the window instead, triggering a silent alarm. The man is a LEGEND. his parents thought he was a bit slow, due to him not talking when kids his age were starting to say words, next is a quote from the book Masters of Doom "One day, John's father asked his mother where the sponge had gone. John walked into the kitchen, grabbed the sponge, returned, and said his first words, "Here's your loofah, daddy." John did not seek to show off something he hadn't mastered first." The man isn't human. I recommend looking up Civvie-11s John Carmack compilation. The man is my hero
