PC gaming getting worse every year - sh.itjust.works

Nah, it’s getting better every year. Adding crappy games doesn’t change the huge backlog of great games I have.

My response to the points:

  • Don’t buy games until reviews are good - don’t buy on release day, and certainly don’t preorder
  • See 1
  • See 1, but replace “games” with "PC hardware"
  • We probably need a law here, but until then, see 1
  • This is stupid. Buy indies, they don’t pull this crap.
  • I would like to point out that indies do indeed pull crap, just different crap. Just look at the ocean of abandoned Early Access games for one example of it.
    Never buy early access on the hope that the game will get better. Buy it if it’s at least good enough to justify its current price tag right now.
    Or if you really want to support the project, but accept that it might not turn out.
    IDK, I just buy the soundtrack or whatever if I really want to support it. But the game needs to be good enough to justify the price before buying.

    Depending on the project, there might not be a soundtrack to buy - especially for indie projects.

    I’ve pitched in a few bucks here and there to support projects, with mixed results. I don’t regret supporting even the failed projects though, since I viewed it more like a donation than a purchase.
