“Setting limits like this will hurt our industries/economy too much!” -some politician probably

630-5 here. Of course, all of our office folk do, in fact, work 9-5.

Problem is that these will always be a thing because of whales. Am I supposed to not buy a game because of a micro like this? So basically quit gaming? Because they’re everywhere now, and as long as whales exist, micros will exist. You need to pick your battles. I stopped buying multi-player games all together. I’m not limiting myself on single player games because of a minor micro that changes nothing about my single player experience.

Everyone could boycott this game except for the whales, and that handful would still be considered a win for them. Don’t be disappointed in a single games sales, be disappointed in the current state of gaming.

While occasionally I wish I could save scum when I make a mistake, I’ve gotten through rough patches. I will say the performance is lacking sometimes, hopefully that will iron out in time. One save file can be a pain, but you can rebuild your character in any way you’d like throughout the game, and there is NG+. But I have 10 wake stones and 20+ ferry stones. They aren’t THAT limited without buying them. This just encourages me to explore more and think about my combat a little more thoroughly. I’ve run the same roads over 10 times and I’ll still find a new path to a seekers medallion or a cave I hadn’t gone through on the 11th time. I’ve only used 1 wakestone and that was because I fell a half a mile and ended up somewhere I hadn’t explored yet.

The game is not bad, it’s just built different. GOTY? I don’t know about that yet. But to be ‘disappointed’ that a game you didn’t like is selling well is nonsense. The micros are irrelevant as far as I can see with the stockpile of those items I have, and while I don’t like the idea of them being slid in there, it’s not predatory like lootboxes in some games.

That’s beautiful! Zelda is one of my all time favorite game series, just had to compliment that one!

I love that green GameCube! I can’t zoom in well enough to 100% tell, is that a triforce and master sword?

I agree. After the ending, I was happy my boy could get some rest too lol

I’m hoping the initial backlash from cyberpunk actually registered with them. Other than that I’m also worried about what kind of story and characters they’ll use considering the way the last dlc for witcher 3 ended. Not sure I’ll be into Ciri based gameplay. That was my least favorite part of Witcher 3, and I don’t really want them to retcon the end of blood and wine either to continue with Geralt.

I’ve watched a few spoiler free reviews on YouTube and the general consensus is that it drops a little in densely populated cities, but otherwise doesn’t struggle. If your interested it’s one of the first things this guy touches on.

Thanks much! That’s a relief because I really want to play it.

I’m seeing this on Xbox marketplace sold as a bundle (game and expansion), but when I check the expansion it says not sold separately. Are they actually onlying pushing this as a bundle on Xbox? I already own the game so if I can’t buy just the expansion, I will not be playing it.

Tik tok is legitimately rotting their brains though.

Remnant 2 has been occupying most of my free time lately.

The CEO/Owner of the company I work for recently bought a 5th wheel camper with more square footage than my townhouse on a whim.

I don’t doubt this given YouTube record with the creators themselves. YouTube is a slimy company.

Glad to hear that, I think I’m gonna give it a run before 2. It’s been on my list for a while but I didn’t want to immediately drop it at a roadblock, being incredibly mediocre at games in general.

Makes sense. I’ve seen it on sale a few times, and I might pick it up and give it a try. Thanks for the input!

I was wondering, is this a tough game solo? I’ve read that it’s souls like and I’ve never been particularly good at or have the patience for games like that, but I’ve been interested in remnant for a while. It looks like it’s a blast. I just want to be sure it’s not super unforgiving and frustrating to play like souls games have been for me before I buy it.

Lmao, I’m sure I won’t have to wait long either. Subscriptions tend to climb unfortunately. I used to pay $10/mo for netflix, what’re we at now? Like 16-18?

As long as they don’t change my $60/yr price point, I’m ok with it. I never really played too many of the games with gold games anyway.
