I've been wondering, Has there been a game where midway, or at the end a party member betrays you and takes all the equipment they had equiped with them?
It would be a dickmove, but surely a developer has done this?

YES, and it's called Baldur's Gate II

I'm playing Alien: Isolation and boy, the search pattern the Alien uses seems super tight. Alien just loving knows the exact closet I'm hiding in at any given time and pops in every few minutes for a quick, breathy "how do you do".

Yeah but now you get to blame the 4 other people on your team and your 5 opponents for picking bad/OP heroes! That's like 9 whole more degrees of separation between you and admitting you're bad at video games.

The degrees of seperation don't make it any more or less likely that a player is gonna offload the blame to someone or something else, that's just a consequence of who the player is.

MOBAs in general have long playtimes and high barriers to entry so I feel like that winnows down your playerbase somewhat and what's left over is a population of gamers who are biased towards toxic behavior. Add to that the multitude of ways you can slight or screw your own team over and it's a recipe for disaster.

GOG Galaxy appears to have gotten cloud saves in a recent update, which is great, it was really one of the Steam features I didn't want to be without.

e: Cloud save support seems pretty spotty, though

I mean mostly in the sense that you spend a majority of the early game preparing for a conflict, only in this case if you get ganked or outplayed your game is over and you have to restart in a new game.

If you don't like that aspect then you should jump into popular spots first thing and have silly fights with players who are about as ill-equipped as you.

Also anybody who is already invested enough in a game to drop $60 to buy it at launch week is somebody whose experience is too effected by hype and expectations for me to take seriously, you need the people who get it a month later for half off at the very least before you start getting more balanced opinions. Remember how for like a week after it came out Resident Evil 7 was the best in the series and the greatest horror game in years and was gonna single-handedly save VR then after that nobody really talked about it or cared, or how Mankind Divided and FFXV being unfinished piles who weren't worth it didn't really start getting traction until the holidays sales?

I read an interview with a guy who translates the Yakuza games and the subject of the sexy minigames came up, which is something that Sega used to take out of the western ports of the series. He basically said that there's no way they could take them out anymore, because there would be so much backlash.

🤔

Is the backlash real? I assumed it was mostly breathless videos posted by a few dudes with anime avatars.
