It’s not exactly difficult to have more content than those services when they keep fucking around with exclusivity bullshit.

Don’t you love it when Satan is efficient?

Personally, I’d say the biggest problem is the lack of accessibility with Linux. I’ve tried to convert multiple times and always run into numerous issues even with the more Windows-user-friendly distros like Mint. I love the potential for customisation and feeling like I actually own my computer but my own experience lines up heavily with what the average console gamer thinks gaming on PC is like; a several-hour-long nightmare from launch.

Some of us have been saying that for years

That’s an insane level of professionalism and accountability you’re talking about there, friend.

Oh no, I’m utterly shocked that a mega corporation would blatantly break the law then find a patsy 😱

I know. My comment was about if he’s trying to prove himself right by firing everyone just in time for the use of AI. Hell was invented for scum suckers like Strauss Zelnick

Is this interesting timing or is he going out of his way to prove his point?

They said they won’t be paying for it. Nothing about playing it, matey

It’s almost like they shouldn’t have bought a bunch of gaming studios. They could have at least had the decency to sell them again or made an agreement for independency. The irony of an American company opting against the latter isn’t lost on me.

And the grandpappy gamers. I’ma have joysticks rigged into my zimmer frame when the time comes. Til death do we game.

He’s just a harmless little froggo. It’ll be fiiiine

I’d have to agree with that. Sekiro has a lot of the trimmings of other From games while having a movement system much closer to the standard hack-n-slash adventure game like Assassin’s Creed or Ghost of Tsushima most recently.

I’m pretty used to it at this point. My best friend is a big Souls fan and is one of the many who refers to Elden Ring as the most approachable From game yet as well as Sekiro as possibly the hardest. The comments I’m used to seeing are ones calling X boss the hardest they’ve ever gone against and those are consistently the easiest for me. Personally, I’m terrible with the bosses that have a wind up for their attacks and make you wait for the timing as opposed to the ones where it’s almost pure reflex. If that sounds more your bag then I’d say Sekiro is your thing and you likely won’t enjoy DS or ER. Bloodborne is somewhere in the middle, debatably closer to Sekiro though I’ve seen arguments for both ways.

Personally, I’d say Sekiro. You need to be good with timing but the experience is much more streamlined. There’s no equipment system so you don’t have to worry about finding what’s good for you, let alone slogging it through the first however many hours to get whatever items get recommended in Top X lists. Also, I find the movement system is much more to my liking. It feels immediate instead of trying to sprint through a field of porridge. However, if porridge is what you’re looking for, Sekiro is a poor pick for you.

Lies of P is also a good pick for having tighter movement and QoL upgrades over Souls games though I dare say a lot of fans will want to drag me across the coals for saying that.

At least it’s not Kotaku but all this consolidation is far from good news. Heaven forbid reporters should get to stay independent, let alone being puppeted by a company that’s little more than a meme.

Not to mention generally shitty business practices and eve more arbitrary regional locking than you might think. I was living in a non-English speaking country back when I was willing to pay for Netflix and I tried watching an anime only to find I couldn’t get the English dub. I contacted support and their answer was “You don’t live in an English-speaking region so it doesn’t make sense for you to have access to it 🤷🏻‍♂️”. I stopped paying on the spot.

Tis the new age of sailing the seas, yaaarrrr!

If this doesn’t scream anti-preservation, I don’t know what does.
