Video game thread

The Saints Row reboot was recently revealed to have cost over $100 million to make. It lost so much money that Embracer appears to be skittish about the IP itself, not just the rebooted version.

@ANoobis
Another property killed by diversity hires.

@ANoobis
Jesus Christ. Imagine spending that much money to make such an observably unfinished game. One that can’t even skirt by on likable characters or a goofy-but-entertaining story thanks to being A) a reboot and B) a seething rejection of everything the previous games & characters were.

@ANoobis
Rest in piss, Volition. You killed Red Faction, you killed Saints Row even before the shitty reboot. Then when the reboot was revealed you shat all over your fans, and I’m 90% sure IdolNinja’s PC patch for Saints Row 2 was never completed despite publically saying you’ll “finish what he started.”

The next Doom is going to be a freemium game. Too bad they wasted the premise on a mobile roguelite. It was actually intriguing up until the gameplay footage.

Why would the scroll wheel in a gaming mouse have backlash as a feature?

@IvanSatoru
What do you mean?

@ANoobis
We’re demanding more from a lazier group. Triple A? More like single E.

I am glad Rockstar has made earning money in GTA Online significantly easier, but it confuses me as to why. Why increase the payouts for all player businesses? Why allow them to be managed in private sessions? Why have events that give out non-insignificant amounts of money so often? Why offer discounts and temporary multipliers for specific activities every week? It’s not to make it a more enjoyable experience or they would have done so years ago.

@ponypony221
Exactly.

@ANoobis
Ah yes. How you think differently than me!

@IvanSatoru
More cunts need to learn the hard way.

@IvanSatoru
This is why I save myself for my proper mare waifu in the next life, just as the good Lord intended.

Forspoken has already sold so poorly that Square Enix is eliminating the studio that made it. The Saints Row Reboot took months to get to this point.

@ANoobis
Damn, that was a quick hook!

@ANoobis
The CEO left too, and it’s usually a bad thing since we haven’t got a CEO that everyone likes in years

We finally have it! A Hogwarts Legacy mod that gets rid of all black students for a more realistic 1890s Scotland, including the black Uganda girl you’re forced to be friends with. Enjoy.

Absolute madmen.
I was reading the steam forum thread just now and it got removed

The Gamer released an article about how much they hate their readers.

@ANoobis
Gamers still haven’t given in to the subhuman commie freaks
Freaks: “Gamers are pretty spineless”

@ANoobis
“Trans people like me”
Well, that explains why they hate people different than them.

@ANoobis
I just want to know where all the hatred for Rowling and everything Harry Potter way back when the books were written? Was the fact that Rowling was transphobic better hidden than Hillary’s e-mail servers? (I hate that term… “phobic” means fear, which is different from intolerance and hatred. How about a more accurate term, such as “trans-intolerant” maybe, or “trans-hater”? Both would be more accurate terms, in my opinion.) Seriously, I have a hard time taking the SJWs attacking Rowling seriously when they only very recently decided that she was a bad person.

As to that gaming news site, they’re a bunch of hacks that the actual gaming community stopped listening to years ago, so they jumped onto the Woke Wagon in hopes that maybe they to may be included in the three thousand eight hundred and thirty seven genders. (I think that’s the current count, unless two more get added as I type this.)

@BikerDash
She didn’t even say anything that could be defined as hatred, all she said was (something to the effect of) “men and women are immutable biological categories and you don’t magically change it with some surgery”.

The part I hate about the throwing around of the “transpbobe” label isn’t that they should be using “trans intolerant” or “trans hater”, it’s that it usually refers to people who don’t believe that the mutilation of one’s genitals by a professional butcher is a healthy way to deal with gender dysphoria. Hell, you can’t even use that term anymore without being considered a “transpbobe”, nevermind proposing alternate solutions, they label you as “hateful” for even trying to properly diagnose the issue.
