Theyve been dumbing down systems since before Skyrim honestly, it’s been the consistent complaint ever since Morrowind came out.

Iirc it wasn’t even Meier’s idea to put his name on the games. He was a well known figure in the simulation game genre so when his company was making Pirates! the other co-founder, Bill Stealey, had the idea of putting his name on the box because it was a big departure from their usual games. The idea worked and they just started using his name for every game.
Nintendo fanboys don’t like to think about emulation existing
Yeah I basically got this exact advice and was surprised to realize they cost much more than that anymore.
Yooo this game was rad
Honestly as someone who plays WoW it just generally feels like the developers are in a better environment now than they were a few years back.
Yeah, sure is weird they never made a flatout 3
I think they plan on doing something after Half Life Alyx changed up the story ail bit
Tbf when it comes to actually developing games they’re good at what they do
They wanted it to be a live service, which is famously expensive to develop. They have to pay people to be constantly developing content on top of the insane prices of releasing and marketing a AAA game in the first place. Usually these games make money through microtransactions and/or subscription fees but no one wanted to play the game in the first place so hardly anyone was buying any of the extra content after initial release.
Obviously Sony is unhappy with the performance of the PS5 considering how much they’ve been trying to push PC ports lately. Not to mention Square Enix citing disappointing sales for their last couple of critically acclaimed Final Fantasy games as the reason they’re going to focus on multi-platform support going forward.
I think AI could be great for more powerful procedural generation. Rather than just using AI generated textures like some games do now I think AI could be great for tiling and adding variation to pre existing textures within games without making it look “AI generated” for example.
It’s crazy how many MMORPGs have lived for so long
Titled Cat Game
Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts was great tho, I think the biggest problem there was just branding.
I will say Microsoft voluntarily acknowledging the union at Activision Blizzard won a lot of points from me
Yeah idk why people think this. Halo didn’t do so great after Bungie but I can’t think of many examples of them ruining studios like with EA
Lmao wtf are you talking about
They haven’t, but because Alan wake 2 is doing well they feel more comfortable making one
A code for the game on Steam? They still get their cut
