I really like Ubisoft, but seriously. The fact that they have the nerve to put in a setting actually called 'E3 RAIN' or whatever, is stupid. Then locking it from people who can actually run it is STUPID. But I can't blame them. Idiots will continue to buy mac-books and consoles and flat brimmed douchbag hats with stickers and say swag and dew the do and never know how much they are hurting progress of the medium of art known as videogames.

CONSOLES ARE RUINING MY PASSION.

I love the image of PC Master Race types storming of the movie theater fuming in indignation at the fact that The Artist wasn't shot in color or that Grand Budapest Hotel was shot in 4:3

how dare those chucklefucks not use every pixel and graphical effect :argh:

But the PC ecosystem also includes hex based games with graphics that look like they came straight out of 1990. Real time war simulators that resemble the graphics from wargames with a bunch of windows forms drop down menus and radio buttons added.

In my day you had to mow the neighbors lawn for 60 cents then walk 3 miles through the rain and sleet just to get 3 games of space invaders at the corner store.
gently caress you and your candy crush, son. Get off my lawn.

ART.

I wonder if these people also have internet slapfights on if sitcoms are art. I mean yeah technically they are but you never get people who get upset if you do not consider "The King of Queens" art.

how i met your mother is the literary achievement of our generation

how on earth did they spend 500 million dollars to make a personality devoid clone of borderlands? didn't gearbox literally make borderlands with money they had received to make a lovely licensed aliens vs predators game? how are you that incompetent that some random poo poo studio can make a game with what must have been a pitiable amount of money they literally swindled and lied to get and you can't make it with half a billion loving dollars?

They didn't. They budgeted $500 million over the course of the next decade for Destiny and all of its sequels and spinoffs, but gamers are dumb as poo poo with no attention spans so they read the headline on Polygon and then retreated to the forums foaming at the mouth
