Idk, I kinda agree. Look at how many shitty Pokémon games were made in order to launch alongside with a new series or movie. Those time constraints did not do those games any favor.

So I’m happy they didn’t try to launch a new Fallout game when the series was released. I’ll be wandering the Mojave Desert until then. And if something like 76 comes out again, I might just stay there forever.

This will probably not get as much attention as other FFF’s, but I absolute love how they are determined to optimise the quality of life across the globe.

I dont care what you say in your review, but if you clock 8000 hours in a game I’m pretty sure you liked it enough to keep playing, or you’re actually just addicted and need to seek help.

I will die on this hill

In 2020 they acknowledged and apologised, but yeah, that was 3 years after launch.

I’ll bite, what hardware defects are they ignoring? Surely you can’t mean the drifting, because they replace them for free.

Also doubting about nonprofit fan projects. Usually Nintendo leaves them alone until these fans start earning money with it.

As for the prices, yeah, I agree.

Yup, that’s how niche the Steam Deck is at the moment. It’s ~37% of 2% of all Steam users.

Then again the user numbers on Steam are insane. Would be nice to compare it per region.

No, they don’t: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtfU9AsUmc4

Listen I love NMS for what it has become, but of course they would say that. They know that (the veil of) personal investment in their userbase’s woes is good marketing. What would the answer otherwise be? “fuck your save, start over”?

And if they can’t fix it, they can at least say “we tried”.

There’s definitely some sketchy stuff going on, but in general, reviews are mostly an opinion. A lover of the original versus a hater of the original will probably not give the same score to this game. It really depends on the reviewers history, preferences, ability to investigate, empathize with other demographics / types of players, patience, endurance, willingness to forgive bad gameplay/graphics/story/music as long as the gameplay/graphics/story/music is good, etc.

Well, no Rock & Stone! for you then :P

I find it interesting but there might be no rhyme or reason to it - vibes often just work like that. Does the camera POV have an impact as well? Like first person vs third person vs isometric?

Unpopular, maybe. Controversial, I hope not. Your opinion and experiences are valid.

Can you pinpoint why it’s a turn off? I understand you’re saying you want to be outside, but is it from a feeling of being limited when you’re inside?

Flipping it: do you prefer playing games that are in the sky like Bioshock Infinite over Bioshock 1/2 that are underground (on the sea floor)?

Yeah it’s great. I can spot RPS headlines with ease considering how much obscurity they put in, in comparison. It can be someone’s cup of tea though. I like my headlines factual and conversational!

Now this is a headline!
