"IS THIS GAME WOKE?", or my favorite pre-release thread: "WHEN SALE?" All of them, all the time. The Steam forums are trash.

I can't even go to the forums any more. It's nothing but trolls and bait. If I have an issue with a game, I'm better off going to reddit, and that's fuckin saying something.

Like when they discriminated against users because of their age...

OP had a chance at a three way and dropped the ball...

Hell yeah! Commentary! Looks like I'm replaying it for the 100th time.

I've had such mixed results with that. On one hand it works but it's rarely a smooth experience. Too many 2d elements blended into 3d and suddenly I'm standing half way through a menu with no way to select anything and a cutscene is running 6 miles away clipped through 17 levels of assets.

Well it's Unreal, so expect shader compilations and micro stutters, as well as a host of graphic options that may or may not make a visual difference, but will randomly tank your fps for no reason.

I think it came down to net vs gross. They make less in gross with pachinko, but their net was higher due to less overhead. It's like the dodgy gacha market that every Japanese game house has gotten into. They can put out a shit product that only reaches a 10th of their previous market, but that 10th pays through the teeth for their waifu.

Bullshit. It exists because Konami got out of the video game business for Pachinko and then realised they could double dip if they beat all their dead horses some more.

I checked it out... for science. Has big "brunch team" energy. The subscription should come with a free bowl of soup.

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

I'm getting downvoted by the same people who think that it's OK to pirate all the current running TV shows and movies. Everyone is selfish, everyone wants it for free.
