It looks like a lot of people during the Gamergate years have a hand in Sweet Baby and other “consultant” groups. They never went away, just switched companies to still spread poison.

I warned they would come back and fester more. I was called a liar, and after a ton of game I saw looked like shit, they still try to fathom other things then the same people from 2014, terrified of being labeled.

I’ve wanted to try out the desktop version of World of Warships for a long time. Now that I have gear that could in theory run it I find out it takes up over 1/4 of the drive. That’s a lot of drive. Do any of you have any experience running games from a USB 3.2 capable drive?

Should be no issue at all, as long as there is an SSD in that external case it should run basically the same.
I haven’t on Desktop per se in a long time, but on PS5 i got one drive connected over USB

I can’t unlock difficulty 7 in Helldivers 2. I’ve done several missions on Extreme already. Is there an issue, or is there some other requirement?

Hi-Fi Rush has released on PS5. Currently, it’s the highest rated version on Metacritic.

And hilariously it flopped. I remember people celebrating Mags getting canned forgetting she was just one in many- and then Spider-Cuck came out proving Insomniac is a lost cause.

Kotaku’s parent company told them to stop reporting news and instead focus on producing game guides.

The Crash of 1983-1984 happened, and Atari as well as Mattel Electronics paid dearly. Another one will probably coalesce fully by the time by the end of this year. It certainly won’t be a carbon copy of the one that began in 1983 and went full force the following year; it will have different waves. Ubisoft, EA, and also Sony, won’t be in the picture by 2045.

Hopefully. Paying more then $80 for games that are broken, struggle or just don’t work with the excuse “Oh, they’ll patch later. It’s the industry now” wouldn’t fly in other areas. These companies have gotten extremely comfy with thinking people will stay complacent and idiots that just shout “CONSOOM BIGOT! THE MULTIMILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION IS STRUGGLING!”

Part of me hopes GTA 6, or at least the inevitable GTA Online 2, fails for this reason. But given people are still pouring money into the travesty that is Halo Infinite I doubt it’ll happen. Maybe in another decade the average customer will regain higher standards.

2K hired Sweet Baby so it’ll be a massive 1TB trash fire with all the Girlbossing and safe edgy you can have.

Depends on the kind of person in question. Fanbases of various different video game, TV and movie franchises are different kettles to varying degrees. Halo fans that continue to buy after 3 and Halo:Reach, post Black Ops 1, Black Ops 2 or 7th gen MW2 COD fans, as well as quite a number of Bethesda games fans, especially those who cope and make excuses for Fallout 76’s condition at launch, and Starfield’s letdown in terms of most areas regarding content, are filled with denial and at least some kind of buyer’s remorse lingering inside them as well as en masse brand loyalty. GTA, Megaman, Deus Ex, Star Trek, Quake, and Star Wars fans (the latter especially after the Disney buyout leading to the EU purge and later on, TLJ) typically aren’t so eager to just be quite so foolish and unthinking.

I’ve seen this.
I’ve seen this.
Spider-Man 2, Sam Maggs was fired and the celebrated saying it’s going to be great. I voiced concerns since when there’s one there’s more. I was called a “Doomer”
When X-Men 97 was teased. People just went nuts saying how Marvel was back and it’s gonna be great. More and more, signs loomed and they even started parroting a lot of the types that hated the product until it pandered to them. I shared an opinion I didn’t think it was going to be good and was called an “SJW” and then kicked out saying they were done with me. Because free-thinkers are known for keeping an isolated bubble and not allowing differencing opinions unlike the “SJWs” they fought against.
Even now, a lot of them in other places sneer, when I bring up concerns with other shows and products. Hating that I don’t just Consoom, and only hate it when told to.
