If Hideo Kojima is not developing the game, why should it be called “A Hideo Kojima game”?

The vr googles are a new product, so it could (and in fact did) flop. If you want to compare a new PS in terms of how could it be with the prices, you need to use the iPhones, that are already established in the market.

Same case: they offer a product that has a different ecosystem that only them produce and they can be considered without competitors (in the Mac /apple ecosystem) same as Sony would be if they had no competitors in the consoles market.

I mean… Look at Apple. It’s not really that crazy to think that the next playstation will cost a thousand.

Will it? If they have no real competition, they could set the price they want. Because Nintendo is not an alternative and Microsoft seems to be aiming at other stuff that is not consoles anymore. And many people still think that a console is easier and less troublesome when you only want to play games (even though it’s not anymore the case).

There’s something unsettling about all this. They are selling ps5 pro at an insane price tag. What’s going to happen when PS6 is released? Are they going to sell it under the price of the pro? Probably not. So it means PS6 will probably have a starting price of, at least ps5, pro price tag. Are we going to see the next gen at prices over 1000€?

Even if he isn’t part of the gaming industry, we can’t pretend he’s the only one thinking like this (hence my comment “people like this asshat”). This kind of assholery is the reason the AAA industry is like this.

It’s people like this asshat the reason why I rarely play an AAA game anymore and the few I play are always the pirated version.

I really want you to be right. I miss a good Army men game so much.

I know, but then, in the functionalities part, it only says multiplayer, PvP and coop, with no mention to the single player at all.

I fear the “single player” will be just multiplayer with bots, but I’d love to be wrong

It’s a pity that the game looks like it’s going to be another competitive PvP shooter.

I would have bought it if it had a campaign as the old Army Men games but… Well, saved money.

Thanks Nintendo! You’re giving me even more reasons to not buy any of your crap. It’s been years since I bought something from you and I’m happy you keep doing your best to help me with my decision.

Nanoscopes, picoscopes…

“The murdering will continue until corruption decreases”

I think it’s a good plan. I either stop corruption or I run out of people (which technically will stop corruption too).

Only if I’m not fast enough spreading the pandemic

There will be an epidemic of falls through windows. It will affect oligarchs and will spare the population. There is a cure: leaving the country after having relinquished all your money to the government.

Oligarchs problem solved.

Haven’t tried it myself, but people report they are getting it running following some steps in its protonDB page

My main gaming device is now a steam deck. I’ve run on it mostly everything I’m interested in. I reckon I don’t like competitive games, so I never tried lol or Fortnite or CoD or anything of the likes, but the deck at home is running from Genshin impact to Final Fantasy 14. No man’s sky, assassin’s creed odyssey, ff16 demo, and every indie I wanted to play.

And except for games like Genshin impact or honkai star rail (not for me but for my SO) which needed a different launcher and some small tweaking, the rest of the games have been running “out of the box”, doing no tweaking at all.

Only for the kind of gaming that is itself a cancer: the one that wants to install a rootkit “anticheat” on your system.

I have a steam deck since the launch of the device and even stuff like old C&C games run on it. Hell, the little guy is able to run even FF16!

Edit: typo

I am like you. The way I listen to music is not the conventional way in which someone has a playlist and goes with it for a while, then add new music, etc… I am autistic too, and my music routine generally implies having a song or two on repeat for the day because they are a form of stimming for me. So I don’t use streaming services if not for trying new music before seeing if I want that song.

My rule is that if I find a song I can be comfortable with to listen to it for a while hour on repeat and I still like it, I’ll buy it. If that happens, that song is probably going to be my next stimming song for days or even weeks, meaning I’ll listen to it hundreds or thousands of times. If that’s the case, I’ll buy it.

On some rare instances, I find an artist that I really like because they have more than one song that helps me and then I’ll buy their album just to show support to what they are doing.

I also can’t go to shows because they are a nightmare to my brain and its lack of sensory overload control.
