a small minority of extremely vocal gamers (...) has never bothered to read what Early Access means.
It's precisely because gamers think they're getting a playable game that they buy EA. Without it, no one would buy and it would be a failure.

The fault lies with the developers, who play on gamers' expectations and don't hesitate to make them believe that the EA is equivalent to the game's release.

I quote from Chet Faliszek's LinkedIn bio:

Chet Faliszek
2nd degree connection2nd
Chief Executive Officer at Stray Bombay Company a Seattle Based developer working on Co-op games. - The Anacrusis is out - play it!

"The Anacrusis is out - play it!" <= See?

That said, having tried his game, it's pretty mediocre, and if he screws up, it's probably not because of the way the players are counted.

Does anyone here watch all these "Firearms Expert Reacts To..." videos? I mean, if anyone's really interested, just subscribe. No need to put a news item here every week.

This article itself has the same problem it's pointing out. It never once mentioned what type of game Starfield is and the fact that it generally got extremely positive reviews with some outliers, or the fact that it's the most successful Bethesda launch ever. Instead, it's taking the internet arm-chair experts and detractors' voice, making it into the overall market's reaction to the game and then trying to explain it, when there is no mystery around such things. Games get bashed all the time and especially when they are trying a few different and new things, angering the 'why is the game same' and 'why is the game not more different' crowd equally.
Not the case with BG3.

Also, CD Projekt might have a higher market capitalization than UbiSoft at €3.22 billion vs. UbiSoft's €3.03 billion at the moment (not exactly a huge lead by CDPR in the first place) but otherwise UbiSoft is a MUCH bigger company than CD Projekt, of course.

I mean, please, no contest at all:

- Ubi has 20,000+ employees (2022) vs. CD Projekt's 1292 employees (June 2023) --> UbiSoft has more than 15 times the employee count compared to CDPR
- Ubi has 26 studios across 18 countries (2021) vs. CD Projekt's four studios plus two branch offices (2023) --> UbiSoft has more than 6 times more global studios than CDPR
- Ubi revenue in 2022: $2.47 billion vs. CD Projekt's $213.5 million --> UbiSoft's annual revenue is more than 10 times that of CD Projekt's

Market capitalization is simply number of stocks multiplied by their valuation. CD Projekt leads in market capitalization. Investors attribute more "value" to the CD Projekt stock because there is a potential story of further expansion and growth. That is all. Otherwise, CD Projekt doesn't even begin to compare to UbiSoft in actual "size".
This proves that it's not bad for business to release DRM-free games.

Tesla also gets subsidies from the state. And SpaceX, I don't even mention it. Are they going to qualify as a state-affiliated companies?

Musk's problem is that he is at war with those who don't like him. And since nobody likes him anymore, he finds himself at war with humanity.

Even playing as the people who are stopping the school shooting is bad now? I would expect that the controversy would be good publicity.

But I guess we live in a world where Even telling people not to use the word "* REMOVED *" gets you cancelled because you said the word.
Looks like the 'Regressive leftists' and the Twitter mobs have spread their voldermort mentality in the real world. You can't even discuss an issue.

Oh no, people disagree with you if you use the word you can't use even though somehow you just used it. Such oppression!

"Don't say that word!"
"What?"
"Don't say it!"
"Huh, what word?"
"Just don't say it!"
"Huh? Tell me what word I can't say."
"I can't tell you what word you can't say, just don't say it!"

That's not oppression, that's pure idiocy.
Sounds like a religion.

Most people just want to do their job and live their lives in peace. I can't imagine being around someone that yells in your ear at 3am because the trash wasn't taken out or the toilet wasn't flushed correctly. I hope she find peace somewhere.
I hope I'm reading this wrong, but are you seriously equating 'not taking out the trash' with sexually harassing employees? How utterly dismissive of a HUGE issue.
Yes, you're right Teddy, we should cancel MrBone!
Living up to your name, I see. If you don't see the problem with minimizing the significance of sexual harassment in the workplace, then honestly your opinion isn't worth listening to. I'm sure you thought that was some sort of clever quip, but really it does nothing but show your own ignorance.
I don't understand why you insult me. I agree with you and everything you say goes in my direction: we should cancel MrBone. You should follow Beamer advice: "utilize the Ignore list", cancel him!

How is that exactly? 'Journalists' are just as much video games fans as you or I.
Completely disagree, they need to get through each and every game as fast as possible to be able to write about it. Where as you and I don't have to play everything under the sun and can take more time learning the mechanics and subtleties of the select few games we actually enjoy. Hence why every Multiplayer review is a shallow joke from people AWFUL at the game. Games journalist now are a joke and are more concerned about politics/wokeness of a game then actual mechanics.
That's true. They are video games fans, but they don't have the time to play the games they love and be good at. I've written for a few magazines in the past, and each time I plaid an FPS against journalists at an event, it's been a massacre.

There are some exceptions. Like me, because I was a part-time journalist. But very few.

progamer skill > developers skill = hardcore gamer skill > journalist skill > casual gamer skill

I'm surprised about these early positive reviews as well. I felt like the general consensus of the open beta was that it was the ugly, dimwit cousin of L4D.
I'm also very surprised. But to be honest, the game journalists are not the best to judge the quality of a multiplayer game. And good luck to test a multiplayer FPS before the release date.

I can picture them playing with bots, at the lowest difficulty, with a gamepad in their hands.

If only Control launched on Steam.

By the time it hit Steam I really did not give a damn about it. Same with The Outer Worlds.
You didn't miss much. I hated control and it's generic gameplay. And I didn't even end The Outer Worlds.
