Look at these comments. Grown men profess nostalgia for a company that no longer exists. I began marking the back of an envelope each time that phrase was used. If there ever was a Blizzard that gave a darn, they're dead and gone. The cutscenes here are... lame. And derivative in the worst possible way. But there's no end of people asking for a live action film. I just don't get it. Blizzard fans remain enamored with a company that's frankly not super impressive given their reputation and funds.

The last exciting western video game was cyberpunk 2077 and technically it's Polish not American. Even that was a shitshow.

Elden Ring meanwhile is game of the year. The year before that Death stranding was the big game everyone talked about.

The Last of US 2 went down the shitter too. Horizon zero dawn was crap too.

Last time a western game didn't disappoint and was really good was either God Of War or Spiderman 2018.

Since then there has been no worthwhile game that I can think of that's coming out of the western world except for GoW2.

Why have western games become so shit?

Are Americans not worries that they have lost the culture war? That all of video game culture that is successful seems to be coming from Japan and South Korea? Or does the current day US consider them equivalent to Italy and Spain?? That is the only way this state of affairs makes sense to me.

I'm angry that my controller keeps acting up, but I'll be trying this later regardless.

The CS port you thought you never needed.

Not really that dramatic, but /r/TrueSTL (True Shitty The Elder Scrolls Lore) has been coping about one of their favorite "schizo" posters getting banned on multiple accounts even inspiring an imitator to make his own subreddit dedicated to the user. Kittenstomper6617 (RIP) was a seemingly popular user who was very interested in a specific Reguard (BIPOC) character from Skyrim, Nazeem, the guy who essentially calls you poor every time you walk by him. He really liked to post about him. Pretty much all of his posts were in line with the low effort shitpost style of the sub like this, this, or this.

According to one user

A troll was coming on to trustle and saying the memes were bad. Kittenstomper was going on about how they were gonna frick the troll’s dad and that led to the threat

So far, there have been more than a few posts lamenting the death of Kittenstomper/insulting the admins/calling for the users to rise up. The most popular being a post indirectly calling the admins cucks (Bretons in the lore are a race created due to elf on human r*pe). Even with 250 supporters, somehow I don't think their uprising will do much. Two other random posts trying to find out what's going on here and here.

I guess this is sort of blowing up there since Kittenstomper decided to start making new accounts and they all get banned in a few days, since it looks like he was banned months ago. So far, I've found at least two banned accounts from the last day or two (I know there are more but I'm not looking for every account that includes "Nazeem"), one active (real Kittenstomper), and two imposter accounts. One of the imposters has started up his own subreddit, /r/kittenstomper. The other is doing his part to carry on the Kittenstomper legacy. It is with great sadness I can also inform you that real Kittenstomper is a gachashitter.😔😔😔

Currently when you perform a Save State the game will close and you will have to re-boot the game to continue with your game-play session. Due to some technical reasons it is not possible to prevent the game from closing at this time. This will be worked on sometime in the future.

The size of each Save State file will vary depending on the game. Size can range from 50 MB to 2-3 GBs depending on the game and frequency of the feature's usage. This may change and become smaller in size in the future.

PlayStation 5 consoles are not being used as much because people are going outside, Sony has said.

During the pandemic, the PS5 was arguably the most coveted gadget in the world. Huge demand and issues with supply meant there was a booming market for the console, leading resale prices to shoot up and sending people on vast quests to try and find them.

But as restrictions relax, people are playing those consoles less, PlayStation said in its latest results.

The company saw total gameplay time fall 15 per cent this summer, it said in the results for the latest quarter. It improved slightly in June, with time up 3 per cent compared with the previous month, but that was still down 10 per cent on June 2021.

That is a “much lower level of engagement than we anticipated”, the company noted in the results.

It said that the game market as a whole had stopped growing as quickly because “opportunities have increased for users to go outside” as covid-19 infections fall.

It said that it would be looking to increase engagement in the second half of the year, which is expected to see a range of new games and by putting more consoles on sale.

It said that it still expected to sell 18 million consoles in the year, a number that will be restricted by the amount of PS5s that are actually available.

However, that problem should also be eased as suppliers recover from covid lockdowns and improve the supply of components.

PlayStation hopes to have more consoles on sale by the end of the year, for the popular holiday season, it said.

Sony also noted that it had bought a number of developers, which are expected to start releasing new games and so could encourage more people to spend more time on consoles.

Because when you see it, you turn around 360° and walk away

It's so realistic. Can you imagine all the potential???

You can have a business meeting... on the moon or... in a shitty hotel near the Atlanta airport, or really anywhere.

Its so nice cause the world is daaaangeerousss. its to unsafe to go out. Do you feel unsafe, because i feel unsafe with the outside. And that's a good thing.

Yes i touch grass (virtual grass near the atlanta airport hotel, you jelly realworlders??)

Satanic Video Game Industry Exposed - Game industry insider Clint Richardson and researcher Vosto Vlad take us on a tour of the darker side of video games and expose the hidden satanic agenda behind the world's biggest entertainment industry. Numerous games are exposed in this video. For example, Grand Theft Auto 5, Doom (modern), Fallout 4, Assassin's Creed, Elder Scrolls, Far Cry 5, Deus Ex, Saints Row, The Evil Within, Metro, Prey, Wolfenstein and more.

With The Sims 4, some custom content (cc) creators started paywalling their content in hopes of making a career out of modding. However, some of their content is shitty, stolen, or badly optimized. If its stolen its usually stolen from Second Life.

For the longest time, EA was alright with creators making their content "early access". If people wanted to pay 10 dollars a month to get shitty CC 3 weeks early, EA was fine with that. As long as the content was eventually made free to the public, they didn't care.

But as creators became more emboldened, they slowly started releasing the content 3 or 6 months later, and then never releasing it to the public at all. A group of disgruntled players would basically subscribe to their patreons and reupload their content fo piracy sites for other players.

This upset one ring of Sims 4 CC creators. They started tracking every single download and kept notes of patrons who reuploaded their content. They would pass this list among each other. with the suspected pirate's name and email. Eventually one member of the group would leak this. If you want to read more, there is this post and this post

Anyway with this new announcement by EA, some of the modders and their finsubs are upset.

I don't care about y'all but I feel this new policy is extremely racist because the main consumer of CC are those of color. The CC made by these dope butt creators of help keep that darn game relevant. Cuz let's be real they are the main ones that make it so we can vibe how we vibe in our games. Without their content people are going to have to rely on them ashy butt hairs and skin tones and ugly butt maxis clothes.

Instead of EA trying to regulate what modders do, they should be shaking their hands and thanking them for keeping the game alive.

You should be grateful that modders upload a shitty ugly alpha hair at 80k polygons

I mean, some people dedicate full time to making mods, so it’s likely their main source of income. I don’t think there’s any harm in paying for early access, but I do feel people should make them free after so long. I just hope modders don’t go on strike because of this.

If you were good enough at using Blender and wanted to make a career out of it, you would not be selling shitty Sims 4 mods.

EA has no right to tell people what to do on websites EA doesnt own. EA also doesnt own player created custom content. EA wont act on any CC they object to. They never have. They allowed burning babies in sims ffs! Its just virtue signaling

yes they can and yes they do. read the terms and conditions.

Just because they write something in their TOS doesnt give them rights over websites or content EA doesnt own. I cant write it more clearly.And good lucking finding evidence they ever acted on the same policies.

read 👏🏽 the 👏🏽 terms 👏🏽 and 👏🏽 conditions 👏🏽 because when you play the sims, you AUTOMATICALLY and arbitrarily agree to them. which states they own all created content. period. that will ALWAYS win in court over “i made it so it’s mine”

I doubt you study either so dont pretend. Unlike you I consider more than just the TOS. First you have to prove that the content creator actually agreed to the TOS before you can accuse them of violating it.

Also I forgot to mention but the adult mods for the sims are apparently up in limbo after EA was alerted that someone made beastality and child s*x mods for the Sims 4. There is also more drama about the adult mod community. One wanted to create regular s*x mods and was upset another creator was using his code to insert child s*x animations/relationships and beastality. If you also want to read about that, here is a long butt google doc about it.

Gonna keep this short. Reasons why:

1. HFW had a good main character

2. HFW had a better storyline. ) Storyline is non existent in elden ring)

3. HFW had way better cutscenes

4. HFW had far more livelier gameplay and you could feel it all with haptic feedback

5. HFW set up the threads for a sequal unlike elden ring.

6. HFW is very user friendly. @dont_log_me_out can play it with my mom or sister. @dont_log_me_out cannot play HFW with anyone else in my family

7. HFW has a more diverse and realistic caste of characters

8. HFW has more diverse and interesting terrains.

9. HFW has more interesting and diverse enemies

10. HFW has got far better swimming and archery mechanics.

Elden Ring doesn't deserve half as much hype as Horizon Forbidden west.

Elden Ring is only liked because it is a game made by a hikikomari for other hikikomaris.

Trans lives matter.

Bright memory: Infinite. Seems to run better and have more active environments than 99% of the games out there. Only downside I feel is that the main character looks too plastic. However, that might actually be due to the amount of surgeries that occur in South Korea. So any model they get would actually look like that.

Anyways, does anyone else feel like video game graphics have hit a wall. Like the only game in recent memory that made me go woah about the graphics were Metro Exodus and the last of us part 2. Every other studio seems to be stuck in place unable to figure out the necessary algorithms to get something even more cooler looking out of the system.

Also feel bad for naughty dog for making such a beautiful game with such a dog shit story.

Anyways, I am not impressed with how far graphics have come in recent years. They need to scale up actual games to keep up with the quality of unreal engine 5 demos before I feel interested.

Warhammer 3 looks good though.

If I were to compare today's game graphics against tech demos from the past, I think we are at 2016's tech demo levels of game graphics as of now.

What year of tech demo do you guys feel the best games are at now?
