I literally replayed it recently and it's better than I remember. I think it's like going back to a beloved book and noticing things I hadn't before.

Absolutely. Just treat people like people. It's not rocket science.

The Xbox 360 launched in 2005. It was a great machine with great games. I never owned one since I could only afford one console and I went with PS.

Microsoft ended prodcution in 2016. This guy took over in 2014, after Xbox One launched.

What has happened since? Recently, a merger with layoffs. A new console that isn't competing globally. A dynamic shift from what made Xbox a staple of console gaming.

You can be an Xbox fan, but t...

So you are saying you've never had bacon.

Better than PC because controller. Walking about without pointing and clicking was so much better with a joystick. I know PC has controller support, but in the OG BG1 and BG2, point and click was such a staple of the gameplay that I loved playing that way (same with Icewind Dale I & II).
The radial menus are fantastic when you need to quickly grab stuff.
Inventory screens at launch were awful though. You could use them and they functioned wonderfully, but there was a ton...

Amazing. This is where it starts. Unionize.

I've noticed this trend where games are coming to all headsets. This is really cool.

Just FYI it's 6 hours.

@MrDead,

SWAS means that the original story must be posted first. It is a story about one aspect of the original story. It's not the same story.

A second hand story/ third hand is the same story as the first.

Sorry, buddy. Story after story on N4G keeps showing games coming to PSVR2. Quoting old Bloomberg rumors about the stop in production doesn't make it so.

It's rumored that there will be PC support, I think that's a great direction but has it been confirmed.

So YOU don't use your PSVR2. OK. That doesn't mean anything for the rest of us who do. What are they doing wrong?

Not hand delivering sales reports to your inbo...

@Eonjay

He's quoting people in the industry. There may be some ranting near the end but it mirrors the sentiments of those people making great games.

And I think that's the point. The big boys need to die off. At one point EA could fit in one room. Same with Activision.

The essential idea is that greed is what is costing people their jobs, not work ethic, not any buzz words, just greed.

But you're right...

"Deluxe" edition

When we used to buy games we'd get a game with an instruction book and (if it was an RPG) a map. Sometimes a cloth map. Then a deluxe (collector's, special, etc) edition had cool things along with it that used to come free.

Now deluxe means digital content that should have been part of the game.

There's literally quotes from 2 people in the description.

And why would being paid what you earn be less because a feminist said so?

I think you won gold in mental gymnastics.

Your company is exploiting you. You're missing 30 hours from your family. They'd rather see you than what you earn.

Your company should be paying you more. I've got bad news, they won't, not when you'll do the job of two people for the price of one.

You're also ignoring all the people who do work hard but don't get compensated fairly for it. You're also ignoring how corporate profits have soared since the 1970s but salari...

I can't stand that excuse. Greed is greed. It earns hundreds of billions in revenue.

When I read Neverwinter Nights, I thought you were referring to the video game which came with a level editor to show players to make their own campaigns. The opposite of where games are now.

IIRC I think Harebrained Schemes did that with Shadowrun.

I don't think I want a Witcher crossover. Doesn't fit. I love both games, but it just doesn't feel right.

We know at launch the story was 100k per week.

Of course that will drop off, it will for anything that's new. (A few exceptions prove the rule.) PC support is rumored to be incoming. But those "stopped production" stories all quote Bloomberg. And they have it as a rumor.
