We re-re-re-re-re-re-re-released Skyrim once again over the last 10 years, it just doesnt have the same traction. It’s just that these audiences are only interested in a game for 6 months max.

They do it on purpose and it really does make sense. For everyone who supported the game they got the very best value of it. It sucks to pay full price only to have a sale pop up a few weeks or months later and you think “ah, I should have waited!” You buy the game, you support the devs, they keep working on the game, the game gets more, the price goes up for more game.

I wishlisted it when it was under $20. The price went up and up and didn’t go down. When I learned it was intentional and would never be cheaper, I bought it and eventually sunk 300 hours over loads of updates. Now the price tag is higher and I get to think “I’m glad I bought it when I did” and not “I should have waited”

The best time to buy Factorio was 8 years ago. The second best time is now.

Maybe I don’t know enough about computer graphics, but in what world would you have/want to display a group of 33 pixels (one computed, 32 inferred)?!

Are we inferring 5 to the left and right and the row above and below in weird 3 x 11 strips?

Maybe don’t charge $145 for a digital product. Maybe charge $50, and sell it to 5x the people. It quite literally costs nothing (okay, pedantically, the tiniest fraction) to sell more units.

I’d play an okay Star Wars game for $50 day 1. Wouldn’t you?

And then when it goes on sale, loads of people would pay $20 on a 60% sale price next year. Whose paying $60 at a 60% off sale for a year old okay Star Wars game? No one. Not one soul.

Oh, you can get it cheaper for subscribing to Ubisoft+. Fuck off with that bullshit, do you even hear yourself?

I use the free stuff, like, all the time

Also, if you’re not going to play it this week, think twice! And, if you’re not going to play it this month, think a third time!

Similarly, I plan on double crossing the mafia so Thin Lips Johnny can chop me up and feed me to the pigs. Circle of life.

At first glance, that headline makes it sound disjointed and awful. But that’s a decent summation of a lot of my favourite parts of KCD 1.

I for one am excited for this new form of capitalism! The government picks one brand to be the national brand for everyone.

Hey, wait a minute…

But a B-List actor told me it would trickle down half a century ago, so let’s give them the benefit of the doubt and maybe we’ll catch a dribble

Stop putting baking soda and vinegar together as and claiming its a “cleaning solution”!

Might as well put in the instructions to add a dollop of hot water and a dollop of cold water.

Wouldn’t be the first time

I’ve been saving my waste and refuse for this very bin

The real key is local bottling where local production isn’t possible.

Ship vats of Coca-Cola syrup to the 200 largest cities (more or less) in North America and create local bottle circulation.

Spice it up with local bottle designs or recycling marks. Now you’ve got novelty sales, collector sales, eco-conscious sales, ‘support local’ sales…
