Infitinite’s public perception was a rollercoaster. From announcement to prerelease longplay to release to post-mortem. I think the fact that it’s had so many different wildly positive and wildly negative analyses over the decade is testament enough that it’s a great work, though I’m pretty sure public sentiment has settled on “it’s bad and stupid”

Silksong launched at €20.

I could buy the best game of a generation at full price FOUR TIMES, or Forspoken once. Tough choice

I keep hearing about this “outrage” and not seeing it anywhere. This article doesn’t even bother to link to the singular tweet the author saw and wrote an article about

chortled.

Yeah, dying to see Ragnarok on PS5 vs Ragnarok on PS5 freed

For now. When or if Framework as a brand reaches normies (non-derogatory), I’m sure that’ll change

Just pirate them. You aren’t boycotting if you don’t boycott. Everyone already doesn’t buy the things they don’t want to buy. And, while Capcom is on an absolutely legendary run, their games on PC have been consistently marred by denuvo and other home-brewed diseases

This author, and likely the whole publication, can be dismissed as they repeat the “bullet does not match the gun” lie over and over in the article.

To help clear up the misconception: While not having reviewed the ATF’s report on the bullet fragment examination, Robinson’s attorneys stated “the ATF was unable to identify the bullet recovered at autopsy to the rifle allegedly tied”.

His own lawyers weren’t even saying they didn’t match, just that the investigation didn’t conclusively (enough) prove they do (in their opinion)

Knew you couldn’t. I hope you know some real people who haven’t cut you out of their lives yet

Please explain why you think CSAM, gore, and revenge porn aggregator X is the entire internet and try to do it without being arrested

I almost forgot that Steam had a need for support.

In the ~two decades I’ve been using steam, I’ve only contacted support once, to refund a PS2-era PoP, which I bought many months prior, and only spent 20 minutes unsuccessfully trying to get it running on Windows 11.

I wonder how much more often the average user contacts support than me (which is about 0.00013 times a day)

I’ve tried it and everything works, including 5G data, except calls and texts. My garbage carrier does not support it (not in america).

Both Kojimaesque

You’re both (fundamentally) wrong. Mods don’t take time or need any extra effort. As long as developers don’t install measures attempting to prevent modification, mods.

unless you’re selling yourself to people who don’t know you, there’s no reason to be concerned about your labels

You are forgetting that nvidia released, and continually resupplied (during a ‘drought’), MINER-ONLY DISPLAY-PORT-LESS cards for MINERS AND NON-GAMERS EXCLUSIVELY.

LFG DUDE. I WAS THERE WHEN THIS WAS DISCOVERED GAMER STEVE (and/or maybe coffeezilla?) REPORTED ON IT. I THOUGHT NOTHING WAS GOING TO BE DONE. LFGGGGGGGGGG

I can honestly say I’ve never had that nightmare scenario happen to me. However, I’m often in a situation where I have to quickly lower the volume, like when I want to watch/listen to something after the last thing was unusually quiet.

If you’re talking about the ringer, every phone I’ve ever had mutes the call with a single press of vol down.

Also accidental presses can happen, and an instant mute/max in that situation sounds awful

Nope

Another thing to consider is the decline in knowledge base growth. On top of not being able to find things with Google anymore, people are turning to discord servers, and increasingly chatbots, to solve their queries, closing off the possibility of new people learning from others’ experiences
