    Its all related dumbass. This is why we have Microsoft controlling 50% or more of the games you will play in the future. Its all due to non regulating the shit and anti trust. Its why google is the way it is now controlling what you watch and search for for 90% of the internet, basically...

    LOL its not mental gymnastics because this is exactly what you get with "unregulated".

    Rather simplistic way to look at capitalism and justy let it do its thing without some government regulations lol. Enjoy your googgles, microsofts and the now what? 4 major game companies running like 60-70% of all AAA games produced (microsoft being one of them)?

    I dont hate capitalism, lol. Its just that when capitalism runs unregulated you get your googles, twitters, bell telecoms of the 80s etc... Pretty much monopolizing the industries. You cannot have capitalism without rules and regulations. Because if ran unfettered its possible you would get one...

    I cant believe you guys are siding with this fucking bullshit these companies are getting away with. Im not talking about government taking over control of on line and mobile games, but some fucking regulation would go a long way here. And we would all benefit with actually getting games again...

    Well my kids were brought up in the dark ages of not letting them have phones until they were older, early 2000s so I never had to deal with this shit. But you dont need to allow kids to have access to credit cards and other methods. Usually it happens to younger kids when you give them your...

    So lets look at the main genres Im familiar with.... MMORPG? Name one that didnt shit the bed in the past 10-15 yrs. Even WoW sucks now and everyone is playing WOW classics... Shooters? Same shit except they now ship unfinished, not all features implemented, buggy as shit and take months to...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Seems like this whole season is a bit overtuned. The seasonal activity is fucking frustrating. I mean its not hard its just that everyone dies like 10 times during boss phase. They throw too many overtuned mobs at you at once. Last season was cool. the 6 man was fun and the 3 man was fun as...

    I dont even mind the cosmetics thing if there is an actual game there to play. But im not talking about cosmetics here, as in the point of mobile games (but this is also slowly infiltrating consoles and PC). They literally are designed to stop you in your tracks from progressing unless you...

    Exactly. Make a good fucking game and people WILL pay for it to play it, simple as that. Somehow this industry got off its rails, probably when they discovered they can pilfer millions of dollars from suckers with just a interface to sell chances at pixels and nothing more. So now its not about...

    Said by someone with no kids. It literally takes 30 minurtes for you kid getting a hold of your phone and raking that $5000 up no problem. Its not about kid control, its about predatory game companies with thinly veiled non regulated casinos that dont even have to pay anything out, just collect.

    Nahh you see, misty, like 90% of the mobile market are not games at all, they are thinly disguised skinner boxes, that is all. You make a good game and people will buy it and play it. There are tons of examples of one dude making a game that becomes a phenomenon of its own. See tetris, (pre cell...

    Well its maybe time to discuss some other ways they can make money other than skinner boxes then, right? How bout if you want to play this game you have to pay for it.

    There cannot be digital items in games with real world value if its not regulated in some way. What is to stop the devs making copies of the said items and selling them on the black market for an example? Like was happening in EQ and its emulated cousins? What sets the value of those goods? The...

    How bout we just go back to the way it was for decades before. You pay once for a video game. If you have content coming out on a regular basis, charge a monthly or bi monthly fee. Or just charge a fee for the damn content you are adding. There is no need for loot boxes, or predatory BS gambling...

    There is a difference between regulating video game content and the way video games are SOLD and MONETIZED. Now im sure govt would jump at the chance to regulate itself some content, but thats not what were asking about here misty. They do need to do something about the predatory BS going on in...

    My place in Northern MI which is on the West side of state is getting something like 2 ft of snow right now till tomorrow. Its all closed down since like early Nov and all but still might be some good snowmobiling coming up. The last few years have been shit.

    I have like 3-4 extended family members on my dole, lol. But in all honesty they should have fixed this shit a long fucking time ago, speaking from a pure business perspective. If you want to watch netflix shit (which is pretty shit lately) you have to pay for it.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    The 3080 ti was another laughable card. $400 more than a 3080 for like 5%-8% performance. The only reason they ever sold was the lack of 3080s. this is why nvidia needs to take a hit on this shit, quit buying their overpriced gouged cards.

    True, moreso now than back during the days of release, but tanks always made shit easier. They actually had taunt that worked with the shield bash and it was easy to take aggro right back when some DPS stole it. I could not even imagine doing those high end dungeons without a tank. Since most...

    I loved tanking in this game. Its how I always imagined tanking to be in a MMO. True, you had a lot of knockback by some bosses but all in all it was great to be a tank in this game. Sword and board baby!
