Hit people to get your life back after specials, which means you get to use them more often, which is more fun than a meter for moves you'd only use on the boss

oh yeah I forgot you only trade in temporary-life for specials now so it's not as bad


frankly I wasn't even using them that much anyway in lieu of the new juggle/combo stuff.

Yeah I didn't bother playing the game either despite having Gamepass. The series just comes across as mediocre mindless shooters with little substance and lots of swearing.

Weirdly, it’s the only game I can think of where there’s an option to bleep out the swearing (aside from Thimbleweed Park I guess, but that goes in the other direction).

Binary domain is a much better play than any gears game.

I have that in my Steam account when it was free and I've never played it.

Outside of the non existent difficulty disappointing bosses, below average music for the series and long load times, I find it to be great and to be the second best in the series.

It has great map design, fun characters, a deep and varied move set, and has an actual compelling story.

This is a extremely good review but i think pirates curse is unquestionably the best and hgh is probably better in the second spot than 7s just because the loading makes me hate life.

Also dont forget that the big elemental attack dances in 7s are very poorly designed around being very op and super tedious

IIRC as-is Gears 5 multi is 60fps but makes certain concessions to do this on Xbox, they probably have to do the same here especially if they want it locked, because running anything at 120fps locked is really loving hard for most games even on beast PCs running games at 720p with low settings.

but I’m not upset? nor am I saying big business can do no wrong. nice straw man.

my point was that it’s dumb for us to argue with any real certainty about what was or wasn’t a good business move regarding acquisitions, profit and loss, tax, etc.

pointing out what were totally dumb console related decisions isn’t even in the same ball park.

everyone list the ways buying minecraft was or was not a good business decision ill start

good:

ahh i love lego
a few dollers selling capes or whatever probably

bad:

$2.5 billion in initial outlay alone hahaha
i bet the mojang devs get paid a lot for what is a $7 mobile title
microsoft doesnt understand monetization
as a business scientist i declare it was objectively a bad move

thoughts?

do you have any evidence for that accusation? if not im afraid thats ad hom and so invalidates your position

a comment is just the prelude to an argument, ill argue with whatever certainty i like. its dumb to have the name "hambeet" and post with your monitor off.

no im not, where is evidence for this claim. burden of proof is on you and if you cannot provide it ill declare your position argumentum ex silentio
