Gaming hot takes? - FMHY

Any weird/controversial opinions? I’ll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi’s tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn’t have. I’ll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

Sony exclusives are anti consumer, and Naughty Dog games are more just cinematics then game.
I think you can take the “sony” out of that sentence…although exclusives can potentially be healthy to avoid monopolies and grant competition between makers.

Yeah, I’m mostly fine with Sony’s exclusives. I don’t love exclusives, but Sony funds a lot of games from the start. Their exclusives would often not exist without their funding. You know what I have a huge fucking problem with though? Microsoft buying companies and games already in progress to make exclusive. Microsoft has not contributed to Starfield, they haven’t contributed to any Activision games, all they’re doing is taking shit that would have existed with or without Microsoft and holding them hostage. They even did this with the OG Halo, it was originally supposed to be a Mac OS game.

All the companies do this, but Microsoft is by far the worst in recent memory. At least Sony and Nintendo actually make good games to hide it. They don’t built their entire game libraries on buying other people’s shit.

Bethesda said Starfield would have released about a year or more ago if Microsoft hadn’t purchased them. They’ve provided them the resources to keep going until the game is done. To say they aren’t contributing to it is just completely misinformed.

I don’t like exclusives at all. They’re just greed. Both companies are a out equal for it though, except I will say Microsoft at least still let’s their exclusives be played on PC.

It’s just not the same. Activision could say whoever the fuck has been paying for the COD DLC timed exclusively contributes to that DLC and it probably wouldn’t be wrong, wouldn’t make it any less bullshit.
