I'm honestly surprised it's still afloat..? It was cool at launch, but needed a lot of work so I refunded it. Also a lack of players.

Damn. I wish he never quit. Best Joker voice IMO. Can't really bring myself to play the game, but I love his VA work.

Just by the wording, they can already throw it into the trash. Oof...

I need to try it after all these patches. Haven't really played since launch, though I pretty much beat it back then. So happy for the mod tools though!

Ironside or bust.

From and servers just don't seem to mingle. They need an entire new networking team after Elden Ring, it seems like. Play on official servers, it's just all over the place with constant disconnects. Play with a mod, zero issues whatsoever. Or maybe it's the anticheat contributing?

Yeah, Sony is no better. Maybe they should go cry to Epic and roll around in their piles of money.

I mean, they probably did him a favor. This and PUBG seemed to have drawn in the most consistent cheater base. Friend of mine bought all the unlocks/weapon skins for his account to play with in Warzone.. said it was pretty much instant.

Oof. I don't understand how some engines and/or devs can be okay with that.

Well, that's embarrassing.

I mean, I'm looking forward to it... Firaxis has earned my love.

Seems like the one thing in these games that should never be gated.

Unfortunately, almost every game I check the guides for has joke guides. Usually a single gif, a video, or a few lines like "git gud" .. I report every one of them and they get removed, but people are just complete idiots.

Would also be nice to be able to filter languages on guides and screenshots. I see so many screenshots with all of the text in Chinese or Russian... I don't mind seeing it, but it makes me have to scroll quite a bit more if I'm sorta researching a game. There are some genuinely good guides that people could be missing, having to sort through this.

Damn, good on Chucklefish. Sounds really nice.

Looks so mobile... PC first my butt! Screw this mobile port garbage. They could have done it right, made a modding-accessible Diablo game with decent graphics.. but they keep making weird swerves as if guided purely by market researchers.

In fairness, the graphic design of the first two TL games looked like they could have been on mobile. They were somewhat simplistic and cartoony.

I should have clarified, the UI is what I was mostly targeting. One look at it and I was completely off-put, regardless of the gameplay.

Man the patching for UE4 games is the absolute worst. Even with an M.2, this patching process brought my computer to a halt. Just like Insurgency and ARK.

Curious to check out the patch though.

Yep, and remember... Valve Time is a thing, haha. I'm glad it's doing well, though, because it seems like some really nice hardware.

Blue, I don't see any of the expansions for free on any platform. They are on sale, but not free. The 30th anniversary pack is just armor, weapons, etc. Am I missing something?

Might just be a miscommunication or some confusion, but until August 30th, all DLC is free to play (not own).

Yeah, Shadowlands was... neat at first, but the grind quickly set in. They also set a new record, I believe, for longest time passed until a content patch. Something like 6 months we had to wait, with nothing to do but grind a needlessly grindy material for our "base". The player base has also taken a downward turn since Legion, becoming more and more toxic and impatient. A lot of people who were in my guild that only played casually, found themselves not wanting to run even the simpler dungeons because of previous bad experiences.

Meanwhile, in FF14, over the last year I can count the number of assholes I've run into on one hand, and the community really doesn't stand for it. It's kinda nice to have that positivity everywhere. Mind you, I'd understand if people were primarily toxic in the more hardcore content (I.E. Mythic+ dungeons on WoW/Savage raids on FF14), but it was the complete opposite on WoW. I had to take these people into dungeons by the hand to get them to do them again, unfortunately.
