• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Control 2 will be an action-RPG, and the first game is getting a significant update in 2025⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  That sour electric aroma you can smell is the collective anxiety-stench of games journalists trying to decide whether it’s worth sitting through the full investor presentation in the hopes of discovering some proper context for these pitiful morsels - perhaps even a unique angle which none of those other hacks have discovered, the feckless layabouts.

  So he’s taking his frustrations out on the reader by padding his article with sympathy-bait? I’ve come to really dislike Rock Paper Shotgun articles lately

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Back 4 Blood 2 appears to be a thing, which is a shame, because I'd rather play a new Evolve⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d like to remember Evolve more fondly than I do, but I just didn’t have as much fun with it as I hoped. My strongest memories are of feeling annoyed at a constantly recharging jetpack

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloud Imperium quietly steal Star Citizen developers' weekends from under them with mandated overtime in the lead up to Citizencon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Who okayed this article? It’s just a signal boost of the Inside Gaming article with nothing new added besides anti-Cloud Imperium fluff. Also, they actually misrepresent the lieu time given, conflating the Citizencon lieu time for the Squadron 42 lieu time that has a restriction on when it can be used. As far as the original article goes, there aren’t any know restrictions on the former.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Resident Evil and No More Heroes creators join long list of devs who think Metacritic is bad for game dev⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This makes sense coming from Suda51. I imagine other devs whose games have mostly cult followings would agree as well. Metacritic has the exact same problems as Rotten Tomatoes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GE-Proton 9-12 released with fixes for Star Citizen, Bully: Scholarship and more⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Anyone use proton-ge for Star Citizen? Would like to use it because it’s more up to date than wine-ge, but mouse sensitivity just doesn’t feel right in comparison

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Earthbound Creator Says Nintendo Considered Mother 3 Translation, But It Was Complicated⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The fan translation was fantastic, but I do wonder what official localization would look like.
