  • I didn't say there aren't any good games. I said I wish there were too many

    Are there too many quirky games like Jumping Flash and Katamari. Nope

    Are there too many games like Gran Tourismo that aren't pay to win slop. Nope, and that sadly includes Gran Tourismo. As a matter of fact there are hardly any quality racing games at all

    Are there too many games like Dead or Alive/Soulcalibur? Big ol nope

    Are there too many games like the OG Jak and Daxter? Nope

    Are there too many games like Metal Gear Solid? Hard no

    Are there too many games like Advance Wars? Nope

    Are there too many games like MDK? No no and no

    Are there too many games like Fallout 3? No

    Are there too many games like Portal? No

    Are there too many games like Mass Effect? Nope

    Are there too many games like Wow? Nope, just a tiny selection of clones

    Are there too many games like Final Fantasy with turn-based combat? Nope, not even Final Fantasy, and the majority of good turn-based JRPGs are remakes

    I could easily go on. However, the point is made.

    So, as I was saying, I wish there were too many good games. Sadly, the majority is middle-of-the-road indies recycling and combining played-out genres, and AAA horseshit. And that's why they aren't selling or gaining traction; people don't want them. That isn't a problem of too many games; it's an industry problem of pushing out too much junk. If they wanna make more sales, they should get back to making good games that aren't a pale imitation of better games from decades past.

  • You fizzled out there fast, kiddo. Better luck next time

  • Lol, telling you can't refute any of that, huh. Respected journalist indeed. Funny how you immediately jump to silly accusations when someone says something you don't like. Pot meet kettle, try taking your own advice bucko :)

  • Track record, lol. You mean like sitting on a bunch of abuse stories, allowing more people to get abused by Blizzard's higher-ups so he could publish and push his book? Or do you mean his support of grifter Sweet Baby Inc? Or do you mean his blatant racism, shaming a small dev team for having the same skin color? Or do you mean his soyboy aversion to titties as he shat all over the masterpiece Dragon's Crown? Or do you mean his participation in the private Gamejournopros mailing list, where he and his colleagues colluded and schemed against gamers?

    The dude is a joke, straight up, a known liar and utter piece of shit fearmongering for clicks.

  • Mexico bored the shit out of me. Looking forward to Japan.

  • You'll never get the recruiters to participate, because their companies will never let them. LinkedIn is corpo hive-mind central, friendly to corpos first and foremost. What you're proposing wouldn't be friendly to corpos, inherently, so they'll never join, and they hold the strings because they are the ones with jobs to offer.

    You're literally asking how to take the corporatism out of LinkedIn when that is precisely what allows it to exist. Why would any company participate on a platform that gives workers the advantage? Hint, they won't.

  • Lol, try to figure out which Gen the controllers are. Microsoft is run by morons

  • I wish there were too many good games. There aren't, but there is certainly too much slop. Maybe stop making slop with hundred-man teams? Nah, it's the market that's the problem.

    Schreier still proving he's a moron who hates games and gamers.

  • I love this idea, what a great way to raise money

  • It's a conundrum, as being free-to-play is why the silly fanservice exists, T&A sells. But should China move past this shit with premium releases, they could end up buckling to the pressure to appeal to the modern audience and tone things down like everyone else, thus destroying what makes their designs so appealing in the first place.

  • Gaming @lemmy.ml

    Ananta looks absolutely ridiculous, if only it weren't free-to-play

  • The best part is that people can't even decide what the parent term roguelike even means. It's a source of constant arguments what a true roguelike is, resulting in terms like roguelite. Now, everyone is adding even more terms to the original, and at a certain point, all these words kinda lose their meaning as they get further watered down. But hey, at the end of the day, you and everyone else immediately knew what roguevania was implying, so it did its job I guess.

  • Yeah, kinda surprising, right, that they actually teamed up with Modretro, a company that actually cares about its customers. It's a strange pairing, but I'm glad it's happening. More Ubisoft titles are coming from Modretro.

  • I had the GBA game back in the day. The GBC game is better, and was released very late in the console's life, the GBA was actually out when this GBC game launched. Basically the GBC game is one of the best platformers on the console, much like Wayforward's titles late in the GBC's life.

  • Gamepot is slop, this article is trash, and the study is idiotic to begin with. The same could be said of any game or hobby, can be filed under no duh.

  • So apparent nobody actually pronounces it like that. All things written on the internet are fact, clearly.

  • Definitely a great idea. Give a little back to the fans, get a spike in support

  • Yep, just learned about it today, it looks great.
