Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

The one example of 2077 gameplay we have revealed the worst, most trite writing since Conker's. Hope the gameplay is good this time.

That's not fair.

Conker's BFD knew what it was.

2077 will have 4 hours of good gameplay across a 40 hour slog of flash and glitz that will do nothing to live up to the heavily curated gameplay shown in trailers

I really don't think catering to Nazis is at all profitable for major corporations. Every instance I see of people claiming that its stuff like Pewdiepie where Youtube makes money of him but have to quietly ignore his existence because they REALLY WISH he wasn't an alt-righter. Its not catering to Nazis, its profitting off them while pretending they don't exist. Which is still lovely, but a different kind of problem.

Something that does bug me is poo poo like Farcry 5 though where I feel like they are intentionally trying to piss off alt-righter just for the sake of drumming up publicity. There's no real political message or stance to be found, its just exploiting current events to make their product seem relevant.

Is Pokémon Let’s Go not a mainline Pokémon game?

Also why are they still releasing two versions of the same game. I’ve been searching high and low for a Growlithe but apparently only Pikachu Edition gets them, gently caress off with that poo poo

Besides crowd density, the original prey 2 tease is way more impressive than 2077, and it will forever haunt me.

They call it a mainline game but it's another remake, which is what they generally put out between the real sequels.

I assume to qualify as a mainline game at this point you need to be compatible with Pokemon Bank. Let's Go also has a lot of other mechanical differences.

And the entire point of the two versions gimmick (other than too make more money) is to encourage people to trade Pokemon.

because it costs no additional money to create and some people will double buy and they have a flimsy excuse for it as well as the clout to pull it off (unlike any franchise smaller than pokemon)

Unless you're my friend from down the street who had red and blue, a link cable, and two gameboys and wouldn't trade with anyone else because he 'did it himself and so should you.'

ace combat 04 is cool but i'm kinda glad it's short cause it's a lot harder to run in pcsx2 than the later ones and i'd like to have hardware rendering available

would be nice if they'd just rerelease these games in hd, and more than just as like pre-order bonuses or ps4 backwards compat or whatever

Ace Combat 04 Hardware rendering works pretty well now actually and it's Ace Combat 5 that is in the worst shape (if you want to watch the cutscenes) now that people know how to turn PCSX2 interlacing completely off https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-z4rt3TRGA

Click the ellipsis next to the video and click "not interested". You'll be prompted to tell them why you don't want that video and telling it to gently caress off with the entire topic a few times will make it go away

8chan gets less visitors than godaddy and 50% of its traffic comes from qanon boards, it seriously isnt a huge influence on the world. some idiot PR guy decided to give a shoutout to his special friends, this isn't a sign of a sinister trend that will grow and grow in video games, and nazis are not running the world. i understand it feels that way sometimes, but they're just loud and desperate, they make up an incredibly small minority. conservatism broadly is growing in the world, but we aren't going to become the 8chan states of america. conservatism and liberalism always swing back and forth in politics.

i'm not being an rear end in a top hat, i'm sincerely telling you that you are in a dark place that doesn't align with reality and you would be happier if you didn't obsess over this stuff so much.

I haven't had to remove many recommendations from youtube, I think by watching more than just video game stuff I've convinced it I'm a well-rounded person and it knows that well-rounded people don't watch that alt-right stuff

Maybe, nobody actually knows how the algorithms work, not even youtube
