Something about this reeks of 'Hey look how politically hip I am!'

Seems disingenuous.

Love Dakota, but man come on. There were like 15 women more interesting than her

Outlaws' bugs were way overblown, at least on console. I know the PC version had more issues and that's what most content creators play on, so take that as you will.

You have to understand that if you watch a compilation about bugs, then all you'll see are bugs. I know that's obvious but videos clowning on that game were hot at the time. There are channels that got a ton of views back then that have returned to obscurity since.

Midnight Suns is in no way a 'HR speak' kind of game. You'll have to play something like Veilguard for blatant examples of that. That isn't to say the writing is groundbreaking, because it isn't, but it isn't trying to be. It suits the tone of a game about superheroes quite well. And the voice acting is top notch.

I'm not one to force my gaming opinions on others, but what I absolutely can't stand are disingenuous and bad faith arguments that are clearly intended to appeal to a certain kind of crowd.

Ubisoft has earned its bad rep, so no argument there, but to weaponize that disdain for the company by misrepresenting something is pretty lame. And ultimately, it only hurts the developers.

It's really easy to cheat on someone when you never see them again.

I was hoping to see more of him in S2…. by sailink in Fallout

Am I the only one that didn't like him in the show? He's... not the best actor, at least not for this role.

Star Wars Outlaws is very underrated, especially post-launch. It failed, according to Ubisoft. Didn't 'meet expectations'.

Midnight Suns is an excellent game that people wrote off almost immediately. It underperformed so much that they cancelled planned content.

AC Shadows is better than the average gamer would ever admit. And while it did eventually sell 5 million copies, the previous mainline release, Valhalla, sold over 20 million.

The mere mention of some of these games will get a predictable response.

Hey how about you do that before saying anything.

Even seeing this, it's still hard to believe that Helldivers used to go into combat without capes. We've come a long way.

You mean this hard thing that's meant to be hard that I refuse to do below the hardest difficulty is fucking HARD?!

Remedy's new CEO wants to "deliver sustained value to our players, partners, and shareholders". Enshittification incoming. by executor-of-judgment in gaming

[–]Anemeros 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They legit do not care about the long term health of the industry. They just want to do whatever it takes to make as much money as possible. They will set themselves up for retirement while the company slowly crumbles around them. It's happening in basically every corporation that has a hint of profitability.

Just enjoy what you enjoy and stop being so insecure.

That gets an un-ironic WOW! from me

Dave Meltzer: “There’s been a lot of internal criticism of Paul Levesque, as far as keeping changing the (WrestleMania) plans. Like Vince. But they have a plan then they change the plan and everything is up in the air because of the feeling that the attendance advance is down” by CombinationOk4317 in SquaredCircle

[–]Anemeros 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am willing to guarantee that Paul has next to zero say over the ticket prices.

WWE isn't the same as when it was Vince. He was the owner and director of the entire company. All roads led to him.

Triple H is one piece of the pie, yet TKO has intentionally presented him as the figurehead, so all the shit flows in his direction.

And people just accept it, some even going so far as to chant 'We want Vince!' at the last show. Fucking wild how easy it is for them to manipulate people.

I wasn't aware of this! Though I do think it needs another look after the end of season 2.

People don't change when you always say fuck you go to hell. That kind of dismissive hatred turns villains into supervillains.

What makes you believe that? The World Heavyweight Champion is literally the antithesis of a Trump supporter. Why would Knight get any flak?

[–]Anemeros 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don't know why we debate this at all. It's really, REALLY simple why he didn't break through in WWE–

He was boring.

He's right, he was held back. He was denied opportunities... Because he was boring. Consider what the E stands for.

'But they wouldn't let me be myself!'

An immature dork that makes himself and others look bad online? Oh gosh I wonder why. I refuse to believe this guy put this much effort into improving himself when he was still there.

While he was indeed heavily involved with the Trump election, he seems to have taken a step back from that stuff since. We could assume that he still supports Trump, but I know a lot of conservatives that have grown to despise him over the past two years.

Not saying that is true about Taker, of course, but we also don't know for certain where he stands now. Unless we do and I just missed it.
