deadgame BF2042 keeps trying to trick players into trying it by claiming they're fixing it to be more like an actual BF game but it still has characters and still doesnt have dedicated servers

despite the moment to moment on-foot gunplay being really good i have slowly grown weary of it and the fact they have slowly ruined the BF identity.

where is the loving destruction?

why is the vehicle balance complete and utter dog poo poo?

WHY DOES THE GOD drat BF GAME HAVE 2 TANKS ON A 128 PLAYER MAP

they litterrally hired a COD guy to turn BF into COD with the ultimate goal of creating a live services microtransaction franchise and they totally failed

all the footage of COD warzone that ive seen looks like total dogshit. all the colours are super saturated and everything is full bright. i believe this is because everyone is a turbo sweat and playing with the game set to full bright colour-blind mode is "the meta" or some poo poo. truly depressing

cs, dotes, and wow are definitely games where you def get flamed if you have the audacity of playing them without a decade of experience, by some kid who absolutely has not played the game for longer than two years

i quite enjoy barotrauma with the lads and virtual tabletop games with my old group. that said, i will never turn on voice if i have to use matchmaker for any game

i did keep voice on while playing TF2 on the lost continents, but that was also because i could pick the server that i was playing on

the only other one i played was dark souls 1 which i bounced-off due to the whole tedious nature of the game (i don't mind the difficulty but having to walk >10 minutes to retry a boss is some dumb bullshit). i'd love to play Bloodborne but alas i don't have a console so Sekiro is my next best bet.

seconding that DS3 is very solid. it's like if you played elden ring but only the main boss dungeons one after the other with no open world. all killer no filler imo. they also allow you to warp between bonfires from the beginning. i forget if DS2 does but it's definitely less restrictive than 1

while true, pretty much every online game that can't be privately hosted has been incentivised and people have been conditioned to expect that

lmao a discovery!

quote:

apparently "I'm in the house like carpet" wasn't originally written for persona, it was actually a sample from a german royalty-free stock sound library that also includes vocal samples. to quote genius.com

The song’s lyrics are lifted from the track “Swiny House” by the German sample CD company Masterbits. Masterbits provides musical and vocal samples and is heavily used by Japanese video game soundtracks

first time I played the original counter strike at some Internet cafe with some friend, and I was dying a lot but still running around having a little bit of fun doing shootmans, and no one told me you could upgrade your weapons so I was just running around with whatever the default was lol

assassins creed origins is on sale


if you havent played the worlds most accurate egypt simulator you need to. its not dusty, its green and good poo poo

honestly ubisoft spent more on making historially accurate egypts than small time educators etc ever could. benefit from them

its also a great game and the protagonist is real good

after odyssey i kind of hated it but gave it another chance and wow it's good

great character, walking in memphis is good

the dlc is not great as usual, the greek afterlife is more fun imo
