This piece could really have done with some examples? What are they thinking could be changed?

I’m a parent and I’ve never thought gaming needs more censorship, just better education regarding the various ratings/certifications.

Lol Australia has got a long way to go to catch up with the UK and US.. This isn’t even a blip, a few censored/banned games here and there doesn’t make your country a laughing stock.

A compilation of remasters by a different studio to the original creators because Sony shutdown Sony Liverpool, previously known as Psygnosis, one of the most storied and accomplished developers since the 16bit era. Previously a publishing powerhouse in their own right and hugely influential in the early days of the ps1.

It was a big deal when Sony shut down Liverpool studio, and not just because of Wipeout.

It might not be straightforward to make a whole...

I don’t think he’s catering to anyone, he’s just being self deprecating.

His studio (fully) died during the roll-out of Radical Heights.. a battle royale title. He’s not dissing the genre. It’s a hard space to make money in, and not something for a tiny studio to attempt. Eg he’s learnt from it.

Things change, get broken, or are scaled back for so many reasons during development. Frustrating that so many people to call this lying when everything during development is trying to hit moving targets.

I’d rather have overpromising devs (particularly if they’ll put the work in after launch to surpass their promises.) than ones who don’t communicate at all, which is exactly what we get with the shitty attitude people are displaying here.

There was no ...

How long you been playing? (Love your MAME skins btw)

It should only take a few hours to have a character up to a decent spec where only extreme planets/situations are a problem. Remember to dig holes/hide in buildings etc to shelter from weather ?

Also make use of punch/jump (NMS’s fast travel)

They certainly did not promise, or show what it’s like now before launch, lol.

There are certain things that fit that analysis but really? It’s a much bigger game now than anyone thought it would be before launch save for the absolute crazies who’d woven Their own bizarre version of the game in their heads.

When you know the loops the grinding becomes much less of a hassle. You can be really efficient if you want to be.

Also the main gathering/farming/etc loop is enjoyable to a lot of players. Repetitiveness isn’t a problem when people are into it.

I’m so glad RB4 is still getting something.. anything.

I’d love another major dlc, preferably with more character creation stuff as that was massively scaled back from RB3. :/

Oh come on Randy is in a whole different league and should have been forcibly removed long ago.

Congrats, you’re so special for your choice to buy something for full price. Like so many other people. There’ll be a GOTY edition with all the expansions like every other borderlands but you do you.

😂 You are politics, your attitude and way of talking here is politics. You’re one of the most “triggered” people here based on how much you’re commenting. Jeez.

Gaaaamers, where games are literally more important than anything else including dubious acts of intimidation. Yeaaah! Nothing can stand between me and my games!

And then you’ll play it for a week and forget about it and move onto the next thing..

And then frame your mindset as the manly common sense non snowflake one, but you’re just good little consumers sucking at the teat of companies treating you like crap.

None of the games in this list have bad graphics.

You don’t know what bad graphics are, and likely not what “art” is either.

Graphics are there to communicate a point. Sometimes that point is communicated better with simpler or more abstract graphic styles.

Limbo and Thomas was Alone have *incredible* graphics. How would you improve them?

Lots of non indie games have more low key or stylised graphic styles too.

Infinitely replayable. Changes often enough that if you take a break and come back there are new interesting things to mess about with. Family friendly..

Not many games like it.

Knowing you’ll statistically never win the lottery doesn’t stop people from playing it. Decreased odds may well perversely make problem gamblers more inclined to buy loot boxes. No easy fix for this really. 😕

It’s both.

We have mentally ill people everywhere else too though but they can’t shoot us.

You also have a hugely elevated (gun) suicide rate. The guns + the mental health = the problem. Guns make everything too easy in the moment.

You don’t need guns to prepare for your fantasy apocalypse. There are almost infinite possible prepper scenarios you still won’t be ready for. The individual does not need to be prepared for the downfall of society or protect themselves from evil governments.

Total waste of your time, money and mental health.

Bullshit with the concealed/open carry preventing 100s of thousands of crimes. Where do you get your stats, the NRA? 😂

You’d prevent a lot more by not having the guns in the first place. At the federal level.

“Some” are always saying everything.

Nobody in any significant numbers is saying what you’re claiming here.

And trump And his cronies are somewhat to blame, They are a huge part of the problem.

You don’t have to be mentally ill, you can be indoctrinated and desensitised, and mentally pretty damn okay. Many atrocities end up happening because another group has been lessened and othered to the extent that the offender believes they’re doing the right thing.

Controlling what information people have access to and what communities they can form is usually crowed about as an infringement of personal freedoms (speech etc)..

It’s not just mental health....
