Reminder to everyone that these are the same devs that raised a giant stink when GeForce Now released and originally let you stream any game that you already owned through Steam.

And in case anyone needs clarification: they wanted to force players to buy two copies of the game just to stream it. Don’t support bad behavior like this.

Or just pirate and emulate Nintendo games. They’re such scumbags that they make piracy morally correct

Games have also gotten massively cheaper due to distribute due to digital downloads being the most common, and they’re making way more sales due to gaming having a much larger audience.

The main reason these games have ridiculously inflated budgets are because execs are pushing for more management, which in turn push for oversized teams making design-by-committee out of fear of making something people don’t like. The gamin industry doesn’t get to make excuses anymore. Them being unable to reign in their development budgets aren’t our problem. They need to figure out how to offer games at a lower price, because they’re going to run out of customers willing to pay otherwise

Tbh, most AAA games are ass nowadays

I get a fair bit of mileage from Mangafox and Manga Read, though I just use their extensions in Mihon. No idea how their actual websites are

Agreed. Also, there’s a lot of smaller 3D games that run at 30+, but end up being a bit choppy and tanks the battery life. Nowadays I just play 2D games on my Deck, then I get 3hr of battery life

Works for me

Just go to bed dude, none of your comments today are any good.

Newsflash: Europe exists

Many of us don’t get a choice when it comes to work computers.

Then just switch to Linux on your personal computer. Seriously, it’s as if you saw that single “gotcha” argument and decided to repeat it with no thought whatsoever

Removed by mod

You really have to ask?

Which is just frustrating because there’s some real improvements in mays of their usual systems elsewhere in the game. The I think the persuasion mechanics are a real step up from previous games and I’m amazed the system hasn’t been ported into Skyrim. They got flight mechanics to actually work in the Creation engine. Zero-G and low gravity works great. Gunplay and combat is even more improved over Fallout 4 (though it’s an incremental improvement over the revolutionary leap made with Fallout 4).

Imo, Starfield is mainly lacking in only a few (though critical) things. They need more than 4 fleshed-out companions, and have them for different factions; there’s a couple of NPC’s that I expected to become companions. Since they insistend on having procedurally generated content, they needed to add way more pieces to their tilesets and, more importantly, have an algorithm to stitch things together and have some actual variety. As it is right now, you get the same exact facilities copy-pasted as whole spaces with no variation. And they needed to not force you into the main storyline, or at least pull a Fallout: New Vegas and have multiple paths through the main storyline.

There’s a lot of good bones to be had in Starfield, which just makes the cock-ups more disappointing since they’ll lead to those imprpvements being abandoned

There were smaller updates after 1.6 for months, all the way into December

Not trademark. A false patent

Plus the updates keep breaking mods. Part of why I’m holding off on another playthrough is that I’m worried he’s going to add one more update as soon as I finish a modlist and boot up

I originally played it on my desktop and now on my Steam Deck. The controls for controllers aren’t bad

No, Arthmoor is the monopolist. He goes after any other modder who tries to make a competitor to his unofficial patches, trying to get them and their mods banned from Nexus so there’s no alternative. Because of that, his unofficial are prerequisites for a ton of other popular mods.

Arthmoor also gets into arguments on the forums because he’s a giant drama queen, and in the past when he didn’t get his way, he would remove most of his mods from the Nexus, breaking people’s load orders as group punishment. Him and others pulling this stunt are why Nexus implemented the permanent access to old versions on the site.
