Wonder if they regret having used that development time on Starfield instead of a new Fallout, because with this renewed interest due to the show a Fallout 5 would have done ridiculously well

And we have been paying for it ever since. They will never make that mistake again lol.

nice, I’m waiting a bit to see if there’s a steady stream of ongoing support before buying, but it’s looking good so far

I wonder how many times I will have to see a publisher significantly harm their reputation in the PC market in a yolo bet to set up their own ecosystem and store.

I thought Sony had been conservative and decided against it when their first steam releases hit but with this move it seems possible that a Sony PC ecosystem was always in the works and it just wasn’t ready for those original releases. Oh well.

The idea of Valve ever becoming a public corp ranks higher in my lists of fears than being eaten alive by zombies

I wonder if I’ll be even worse in this one

orb dude doesn’t seem to be in it so that’s already a huge problem for me

damn, I knew that Sega had had a few big blunders lately, but having to straight up sell Relic is pretty huge… Wonder how their output will look from now on, it’s no secret that some of their output under Sega was questionable (primarily Dawn of War 3) and one has to wonder how much of their failings were due to Sega’s directive.

when you get a god run with a good synergetic build this game is insanely satisfying

I know that’s probably true but it sure as hell doesn’t feel like it aaaarrrgh

Fuck this game, it has damaged my psyche

The amount of times that I had like a 70% chance of drawing what I needed in the last discard alone and didn’t, or the amount of times that I had a beautiful synergized build and a boss that disables it appeared by “coincidence”, argh.

Yet I can’t stop playing it

oooooh shit 32v32 is gonna be a beautiful mess in certain maps like Polis Massa or Tantive, I can’t wait

This is low key one of my favourite multiplayer games ever so this revival out of nowhere has made me super happy

excuse me they are scarlet rot swamps now, it’s a totally different thing

gives me time to get a character ready, also it’s not like there aren’t a gazillion good games to play right now, there’s no hurry

broadband? Isn’t this specifically about cable TV, not Internet communication?

a threat that doesn’t pass even the slightest sniff test, any significant raise in prices would leave them open for a competitor to undercut them.

If you are WB, I can’t see how you compare the performance of this game vs the performance of Suicide Squad (which had similar development time) and not rethink your approach to future licensed titles

Makes sense, it’s now or never probably. IGN is 100% a “content volume over content quality” type of company, the type that would replace a lot of the writing and editorial staff with AI as soon as it became a half-decent alternative. So might as well put pressure on them and exercise bargaining power to get some guarantees while you still have leverage and they still need you.

A week?!

The house is going on fire and they wanna take their sweet time finding the most optimal faucet?

That basically confirms every rumor about this. It wouldn’t take a week to prepare a statement if it wasn’t the tectonic shift it is rumored to be. Damn.

I am currently one of the scrubs you beat in Tekken 8 on your way to the red ranks

You know what, you might be right, a second attempt at the concept of a Steam Machine, but this time done in a way that, you know, actually makes sense, with a single super-official SKU, with a lot of abstraction from the “PC” part of it (which Steam Deck has already set the field for) could potentially work.
But they did it so, so fucking badly last time, that I won’t believe it until I see it.
