Well I appreciate you deciding what's right and wrong, the definition of gaming, what medical science (seeing as your qualified and you have an MD) has to say about it,
what I should do as far as PC marketplace purchases,
and making up my mind for me.
you like VR, you think it's fantastic, you believe it moves the medium forward and it's a new reveloutionary way to experience it.
Some (a lot) of us, don't want to play games that way, don&...
"No VR, no Half life Alex, period"
the majority of Anger/Furor, at the center of it, is the shit that he pulled with half life episode 3,
and then years later,
releases a half life project,
exclusive to a technology platform he wants to further, that only serves him,
after giving everybody a huge slap in the face 17 years ago.
that's what this is about.
a man that feels he's above having to answer for giving his ...
A lot of it isn't about VR at all.
it's about Gabe, half life, and valve.
people aren't saying "any game" are they?
they're talking about this specific instance.
have you seen them be this way about any other game, concerning VR?
it's amazing that people just don't get a simple concept:
that I don't want to play (as a lot of people) in VR, I'm not interested in it.
I don't give a shit how immersive it is.
the argument for and against VR and a lot of the arguments about this game, are, in many ways two separate things.
Gabe Newell opened up a lot of old wounds by doing this shit,
because there was a promise [a huge heavy promise] that there were going...
The same things, and adjustments everybody else makes, for every other game that's on PC or console.
please, enough with the false concept that it's some "unique masterpiece" bullshit,
that can't be adapted/ported... really?
Everyone wants to say that it wouldn't be the same/ wouldn't exist without VR.
Fact is if they could have made it for console, pc too, you'd have a much larger group playing it's saying this is great,and who dont give a shit about VR.
just another slap in the face and shows what an asshole Gabe really is...
No, what he's done is actually prove what a full of shit liar Gabe is, yet again...
I don't need valve to take me anywhere.
Could have made it as a service to all of his fans,and for the people that don't want VR, wouldn't have affected his vision, sales of the game, or sales of VR in the slightest.
In reality he be tripling his sales just by making it available for console MPC without a head(ache)set.
for a lot of us it's a huge slap i...
Your "exclusives" are the majority of the library for VR, and The Game wouldn't exist if it weren't for consoles either, now would it? personally I don't care what you play or what you play it on, point is valid.,
"Compare to the first generation of consoles" you said that yourself, and that's the point, it's still very far from being mainstream, I'm also not interested in Mobile, does that make things any clearer for you?
As far a...
Actually, no they don't.
The publishing agreement for the IP was limited, they don't own the IP, and any remaster will be crytek's to do with as they choose.
"No proof"
That takes time and research, but the basic medical causation is there,
Not to worry, you will find out for yourself.
The comparison of being outside in the sun versus VR, was really hilarious to me though.
Do people spend time staring at the sun unprotected, for hours at a time?
The same people that believe marijuana is harmless.
Lots and lots of medical evidence to the contrary continually mounting,
Just lik...
Don't need to dent it.
their approach is completely different.
and as far as consoles sold:
Japan doesn't support Xbox because they're going to support their Japanese consoles.
National unity/identity are a big thing with them, (I've been there, and this is absolutely true)
a lot of these Sony exclusives aren't the ones that Sony studios make, its all of these jrpgs and Japanese centric games that only Sony is getting, and th...
and that's really one of the big disparities, between the two console bases.
one accepts reality,
the other only wants what they want, and any change to the way that's delivered just isn't something they can accept.
and it's putting their favorite console and their company behind the 8-ball.
there's going to be some changes they're really going to hate this generation, whether they like it or not.
and it's merel...
And that's a LOT of utterly ridiculous speculation...
Based on inflation alone trying to hit $400 seems very impractical, I'll be impressed if either one of them can do it.
but I think it's going to be five hundred bucks minimum, for at least the first year to two years
Here's a news flash:
some of us don't give a shit who sells what, only that I get to play a lot of good games...
which I've never had a problem with,
No matter who's in the "lead" in the
Childishly ignorant "console war"
no matter which console you would prefer, if there isn't more things available,
than you could ever hope to play,
you're either an invalid/shut-in/ hermit or you c...
agree completely.
the third one... not so much,
it wasn't a bad game, but it wasn't a great one.
but the second one, the sequel, was definitely a really good game👍
I thought so, I thought it was really fun...
I really love to change to how your gear system worked,
you held down a button and then scroll to change out sites barrels also your suit capabilities, I thought that was really brilliant.
And didn't care how their fans or customers felt.
And the real biggie,
is how long they went (and still to this day) haven't definitively made a clear-cut statement about it.
they never stood up and took accountability, Over the decision, or outright said "okay we're not going to finish it, this is how it is"
not once.
And that's ALL on Gabe,
Might as well change his name to Randy pitchford.
"Not a fan of valve"
Well, does "being a fan" mean seeing them as exempt from the repercussions of being full of shit liars ?
Because if that's the case,
they've got a ton of ex- fans.
when you sell something, you're not above being held accountable for shitty business practices.
I don't buy the argument(s) against not finishing the third episode.
they didn't have to reinvent the wheel.
they didn't have to do anything different, simply not leave us with a cliffhanger and not follow through on the promise, AND THEY DID PROMISE, 3 episodes...
It's them saying f**k you and feeling their culture is much much more important than simply following through on a third episode, that's amongst the greatest absolute bullshit I'...
Your point is essentially the same as everyone else's.
If people aren't interested in VR this isn't going to push them into it.
the big argument is that they should have made two versions of this game, despite what anybody else thinks,
that it wouldn't be the same game (blah blah blah)
the same basic storyline and adventure is there.
you couldn't adapt the way the gloves work?
it's basically the same shit as th...
