It's still a really great game to chill and explore. They also added a ton of video filters so you can play the game in CGA graphics or with all kinds of  effectsit's cool check it out

I don't think it's weird to pay attention to something that's going to be delivered to you for free because of a sunk cost almost a year ago. Sometimes I think about starting a new NMS character, but there's always another game that just came out. It'll never happen for all kinds of reasons, but if they patched in PSVR support I'd never quit it.

It's still very funny that someone paid $1,300 to play a terrible unpatched version of No Man's Sky two weeks early it seems like an ok game now though I'll play it some day

I really wish people would stop telling me the only reason I like No Man's Sky is sunk cost fallacy. Like, I am not at all afraid to put down a full price game if it's not doing it for me, trust me. There's a reason I have like 4,000 Bronze trophies on my PS+ account

precision posted:I really wish people would stop telling me the only reason I like No Man's Sky is sunk cost fallacy. Didn't mean the invoke the fallacy, just pointing out that you don't have to do or give up anything to check out this patch. I liked NMS too, but I had my fill of it a long time ago. I tried to get back in after the first patch but my character had too much baggage from the initial state of the game but also too much progress to immediately throw away; now that I'm in a bit of a game drought a new excuse to start again would be welcome.

Checked the new Humble Bundle and thought I was on IndieGala. They'd been doing so good recently and now visual novels.babypolis posted:Goon opinions has really turned on them yeah. I dont think they are THAT bad but they do miss the point quite frequently It's weird, I've never talked about RPS with other goons but came to the same conclusion. It used to feel like they actually cared about games, now it's more the opposite.

my favorite trivia about immortan joe is that his oldworld name was joe moore, which is the same as hawaii's most egotistical rear end in a top hat newscaster who treats his crew like garbage and runs massive smear campaigns against anyone who dares to get more famous than him in his local sphere of glory pig in human skin

Speaking of things that are mystifying, it does boggle my mind that the response of some people to a bad game coming out is sending personal death threats to the developer. Or, hell, sending death threats to a guy who wrote a preview about that game once

There's a lot of third party places that'll help you release your game physically these days.

I think my response to a bad game coming out is to laugh at how bad it is, but to be happy for the people who enjoy it despite its badness, unless they're huge assholes when you say what you don't like about it or something.

It cool for the one or two games that you'd want on a shelf but a lot of the people Limited Run Games retweets are broken people who just want to collect everything they've ever released on a shelf because that copy of Mutant Mudds and Aqua Kitty needed to be on a disc for some reason. Edit: Actually gently caress those ones, they recently revealed they're making a disc release of home, that lovely 40 minute indie game where they didn't bother to write an ending and which has been 50 cents or less on Steam.
