  • Fallout 76 didn’t ruin New Vegas

    Ultima online wasn’t a “cancer” to the gaming industry

    I wish Final Fantasy XIV ruined the franchise so we didn’t get the abomination that is the latest two installments.

    Greedy shit developers make shit products, no surprise. But GemStone, Asheron’s Call, World of Warcraft (the early years, I can’t speak to the latest) and other forms of long-term games offer a chance to experience a world for years in an additive environment instead of waiting for the next installment of starting at ground zero again.






  • Keep down voting me, but I bet I’m the only one in this thread that’s actually played the game.

    What part of it is unfinished? Also, it’s on game pass, so I paid nothing, and am playing a sequel to a game I love and spent 100s of hours on. Real evil ploy here.

    I’m accepting it because I’ve played another dozen hours of a game I enjoy. CO spent 8 years updating the first game and I expect no less. Paradox isn’t some evil publisher, have you even played anything they’ve released?












  • Yeah holy shit the actual quote:

    “But this actually illustrates something larger, that’s true in sports, it’s true in news, it’s true in our politics. Because of the internet, because of social media, because people are getting information from so many different sources. And the majority of those sources no longer adhere to the basic principles that are used to govern newspapers and broadcasters, for the most part.”

    “Someone might have an opinion that you disagree with. They might be more or less diligent about context than nuance, but there was always at least an acceptable, minimum bar.”
