True. Risk of Rain Returns is amazing. But back when they announced ROR2 and that it would be a 3D environment I was like “how the heck is that going to work?” but they pulled it off. Clocked over 200 hours in that one (so far - haven’t even tried the DLC yet)
Anyway, I believe what you’re describing was coined as “eternal summer” many many years ago.
The same phenomenon was coined on Usenet many years before 4chan.
A garage door opener is simply a machine so a shorter name could be “rage against the machine.”
Wait…
Not to excuse this sort of behaviour, but at least they’re honest enough to say it’s about the money, instead of hiding behind excuses like “bUt sEcuRiTy vUlNeRaBiLiTieS”.
We need laws to prevent this kind of anti-consumer bullshit (yeah I know, a pipe dream) and for people to simply not give Haier their money, or data.
Anyone who’s waiting on BG3 to be cheaper or GOTY edition or whatever, try Divinity: Original Sin 2. It’s amazing, and the definitive edition is only $13.50 USD right now.
No need to have played the first one - I never did and D:OS2 is probably one of my favourite games of all time now.
Even Xbox is loosing to Sony and Nintendo despite being a decent product.
Xbox and Windows are both by Microsoft but they can’t even get that right.
I got a free trial for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate that I’ve been using to play Starfield and a handful of other games on PC. But half the time I go to play it I either get a license error, which usually needs a full PC restart and signing in and out a few times to fix, or it constantly has to sync with the cloud. I can save my game, close it, not even switch off or restart my PC or even close the Xbox app, and later on when I go to play again it has to slowly synchronise my cloud save again. Why?! And if I want to make sure my save can be used on another device, I have to keep the app open for at least 10-15 mins after exiting the game so that the save can sloooowly upload to the cloud. I can upload things to YouTube, Google Drive, etc at 15+ Mbps but Xbox gaming services chugs along at 0.5 Mbps max. It’s infuriating.
Honestly, game pass is a pretty good value proposition (lack of game ownership aside), but with the issues I’ve been having I won’t be keeping it after my free time expires. If Steam has been able to handle license verification and cloud saves for years without problems, why can’t Microsoft get this shit right? /rant
Sorry, I really needed to vent about this.
This is why the core of the issue that nobody ever talks about is human overpopulation. The demented levels of factory farming we have is only a thing because 8 billion people need to be fed.
Or… and this is crazy… not cram thousands of them together in such a tiny area. Then disease wouldn’t spread so rapidly.
