Firestorm Druid

vegoon btw

I was trying to think of something before clicking on the post and money was literally the first and only thing I came up with

Notes app maybe? Then in a year or so you stumble upon your notes and are all confused because you didn’t write down any context for your thoughts

I mean, it depends. PS5 Pro is an enthusiasts console that, compared to regular PS5 and Slim, won’t be selling as much. Playing the devil’s advocate, you could argue that the higher price point is then warranted since they won’t be selling as many units (99% sure they just made it more expensive because they can but whatever).

In the past, their consoles were sold at a loss, at a lower price point, which they could justify by profiting in other areas of their business, such as games and accessories. Sony could, theoretically, do this to PS6 too to ensure that not too many people are priced out of having a console and retain their status of loyal-ish customers.

Wishful thinking on my part for sure but not too unrealistic when you think about it.

If you put it that way

The value proposition is just heavily skewed towards video games. Some games cost less than a single visit to the cinema and provide heaps more entertainment. Sure, it’s different entertainment and the social aspect of going to the cinema is a factor too, but I’m not much into cinemas myself, so I know where my money goes.

I mean, the market for live-service games is absolutely oversatured as is. Live-service hero shooters are also dime a dozen (Overwatch, Paladins, Apex Legends etc) and have their dedicated niches. When an entirely new IP tries to enter when other established IPs may be struggling already, what did Sony expect?

I find it silly that every game nowadays needs to have some form live-service component. Just release a game and let it be. Why change and patch it a hundred times if you can just release a solid package one time and reap your benefits?

Like, compare Diablo 2 Resurrected (display name and profile pic definitely not related) to Diablo 4. They put out patches semi-regularly for D2 and it’s brilliant. The game is 20+ years old and blows D4 out of the water by a huge margin (might be a little biased). D4 had a biblical start and is easily Blizzard’s fastest-selling game at release, but look at it now. They’ve made efforts to make the game better with adjustments and patches, and the new add-on might even be ok, but I don’t think they’ll be getting back their momentum any time soon

Fuck right the fuck off, dude. I get the part about using offensive language and insulting other streamers/players but actively forbidding them from mentioning politics, feminism, whatever is weak. Tf is feminist propaganda even?

And by it haha, well - let’s justr say

Why is 4chan so weird

I’ve only very surface-level knowledge of the game, but to me it seems like an amalgam of all kinds of early access games. It seems to offer a little bit of everything but not a whole lot of depth. I might be wrong, so do feel free to weigh in and tell me if anyone’s up for it

I really couldn’t care less about this game, but this is a based stance to ensure the game’s longevity
