Good, panty quest shit deserves nothing but contempt because it attracts the worst kind of people

You know, I mostly hear about these games through you complaining about them. Just saying, if you really want them to die out, just not talking about them might be a good start.

Fuck off Disney.

Disney’s lawyers blocked Star Wars KOTOR 2’s ‘Restored Content DLC’ from appearing on Switch | VGC

An inability to credit all the modders who worked on the DLC “spooked” Disney’s legal team…

How else do I ***** but in in silence and solitude?

So basically you just admitted you have nothing better to do in life? Nor bother to focus on something positive and good? You are your own worst enemy. Be proud of that.

Rockstar is in trouble. Good, they brought it on themselves. People and parliament are fighting back. This is why the term greed is good can burn in hell.

As the union has already stated, this "public forum" refers to a Discord server used by its members to organise. There was also a general channel here which non-union employees could be invited into if they'd shown an interest in joining. This channel had more than 300 members at its peak.

So what was being discussed? From what I've seen so far: union recruitment, pay and working conditions. We've seen examples of employees comparing salaries and bonus payments, discussions which are arguably protected by the UK's Equality Act of 2010.

late last week, workers of different stripes gathered outside rockstar's nyc office for a protest in solidarity with fired devs in the uk/scotland. the message, as fired rockstar workers head into a hearing this week, is that they've got global support, and bosses can't hide [contains quote...

Watching grifters and their fans suffer in any way is a good thing. You should enjoy it to because grifters like them are right now crying about conspiracy theories.

There is joy in Schadenfreude

I don't mind grifter suffering, but i'm not gonna get enjoyment every single time.It's a game they like that gets delisted or fails. Not a lot of games appeal to them, or they just so happen to fall into the super small vocal minority, but most developers with actual sense don't listen to them. I don't approve of censorship though. Like what mastercard or visa are doing to any games with any type of content. Even when it's something that's a mature subject matter handled and done respectfully, or has nothing to do with sex at all. They want to control what people buy. Yet the grifters say nothing, try to shift the blame on liberals, or only act when it's something they care about.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Is the Name of Ubisoft's Long-Awaited Pirate Remake - IGN

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is the full name of Ubisoft's piratical remake that's had more leaks than a sunken ship.

www.ign.com

I mean, much older games in the series could use a revival, but Black Flags is pretty fun. However, I am glad to "own" the original, as Ubisoft will probably remove it from the storefront once this gets released

 

[FakeSympathy]

Here we go with some of my favorite announcements and trailers from TGA 2025:

Free Shepherd; You get to play as a border collie herding a flock of sheep. The good boy looks adorable

Decrepiy; A solo-developed first person souls game, with a healthy amount of dungeon-crawling.

Audio Mech: This game is top-down view bullet hell game, but has an interesting concept, where the player gets to input their choice of music, and based on the beat/rhythm, it changes the weapon pattern, and projectile paths from the enemies. It is such an neat idea. Kinda crazy concept, too! It's gotta have a limit to how mcuh music in can take in, right?

I thought the KOTOR Remasters had been cancelled. Also, I think its kind of understandable - although still disappointing - that the actual reason they can't do it is because they can't name everyone who worked on it so they get their fair credit.

Pragmata: See. this is how you design an escort companions in games; Have them be assets, not dead weights

Bradley the badger; It's a parody/satire of many famous games, while being self-aware and lots of 4th wall breaks. It looks fucking hilarious.

Stupid Never dies; An action game in punk-rock style.

BTW, TLOU Season 2 won the best video-game adaptations, and there were lots of "boos" lol

 

[FakeSympathy]

Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic! No idea if it's prequel or sequel, but it's the next single-player game set in KOTOR-era. And it's gonna be from Casey Hudson! Independent from the clutches of EA

A new Divinity game! So the brief live-action performance for this trailer was interesting. As for the trailer itself.... holy shit this is brutal.

TBF, I'd rather TLOU Season 2 win over Minecraft.

 

[Ezekiel]

I don't know Divinity. That was disgusting. They just wanna be overrated A24.

 

[thebobmaster]

So, you don't know anything about Larian Games prior to Baldur's Gate 3, and yet you are criticizing them for returning to their roots. Classic.

 

[Ezekiel]

Disgusting.

 

[BrawlMan]

Disgusting.

I love it!

Yes, Larian games are generally gory. If you played Baldur's Gate 3, you can get the idea of what it's like

TBF, I'd rather TLOU Season 2 win over Minecraft.

Devil May Cry was right there. I know it's a minor award, but it ticked me off NGL

 

[FakeSympathy]

Exodus, a new sci-fi game and pretty much a Mass Effect game before an actual Mass Effect game. The alien race designs look amazing. And combat looks good! We are gonna need to wait until early-2027, though

Warlock Dungeons and Dragons; Isn't this class notorious for always running out of mana? Anyways, gonna need to see the gameplay.

Control Resonant! About fucking time, because I have so many questions from both that game and Alan Wake 2..... But I think we all know it's gonna be one giant mindfuck again.. It looks like we're playing as Dylan, hunting down Jesse? Instead of a gun, we get a rod that transforms into different melee weapons.
