I couldn’t agree more. Generally I’m only down on the world when I look at Reddit. It’s important to have a community of real people in rotation.
Moving to Lemmy helped because I only see what I subscribe to and there is no algorithm that is shoving politics in my face constantly.
That’s what I thought but wasn’t sure. I don’t use epic games store but they have published games I’ve liked over the years. Happy to have AW2 and I just play it on PS5 and Series X. Not that huge of a deal but it did hurt its PC audience. Control seems pretty popular on Steam so I’m sure they can see the difference in sales numbers.
Yeah I’m pissed about it but Alan Wake Remastered and AW2 probably won’t ever come to Steam since it was published and at least partially funded by Epic.
It’s incredibly good. I would say it’s only niche on PC because of the epic exclusivity. If you like RE games, twin peaks, the first season of True Detective, Se7en, etc. you’ll love this game.
I have bought it a couple times for different platforms just because I love it so much.
AW2 is in my top 5 games of all time. It’s just incredible. So happy to see other people out there enjoying it as much as I am.
I have never played the game and this DLC made me download it for the first time.
I have been playing the Pokemon ZA DLC. I am not sure what I am looking forward to other than Winds/Waves and Duskbloods. I mainly picked up a SW2 to avoid the price hikes. What are some other games that are coming out soon?
I have never played a game like this and I am interested in trying it out.
Arceus is great. Loved that game.
Pokemon ZA, just picked up the DLC. Doing some shiny hunting for pokemon champions.
We knew this was going to happen. There was no way they released Fable (8 years in dev) to die in the same season as GTA6. As soon as GTA6 got delayed I knew this fable wouldn’t come out this year.
That’s awful. I wish valve would limit it to one per account and just be done with it.
I’m not a scalper so idk what is normal, but I wouldn’t think it would be smart to buy something $300 over face value in an attempt to resell it for more? Especially hardware that is already long in the tooth internally. Aaaand from Valve who typically has consistently restocked these over time.
Idk though maybe there is a market for $1300 SD OLED resellers 🤷♂️
I would be shocked if it was $999, I’m betting on an $1199 starting price.
True! I own both and I remember people losing their minds over the switch 1 price increase.
It’s almost by design. Take personal computing away from the masses. Control what can be done and learned on a cloud device. More control over the masses with the benefit of a cloud computer subscription.
I remember 10 years ago when he cosplayed the leather jacket cool guy gamer CEO. Dude has always been a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He’s gross and every time he refers to people as “humans” it makes my skin crawl.
This is why people should put CEOs in a pedestal. The Xbox fan base did that for years with Phil Spencer after the Matrick era. In the end that cool guy persona lead to a legacy of buying studios and shutting them down when they didn’t meet internal metrics. Xbox was left in a dire state with his departure same as it was when he entered.
I also have never played it and this might convince me to go back and check it out. I picked it up on Steam years ago for like five bucks.
I just wanted to say, thank you for the write up! It’s people like you who make Lemmy worth scrolling through. Outside of my Steam Deck OLED I don’t know anything about emulation handhelds. Very interesting and I like that all metal one for GBA/GBC/SNES games.
If anything, it’s good to have a mass produced option from Steam. Eventually when I’m priced out of building big badass rigs I’ll look to Steam to provide a plug and play console experience.
I’m on my dream PC build, and at this point I don’t really care to build another one again. Console simplicity is great now that I can play most things 60-120 fps.
