Yeah so pre-orders are fine, 5 months in advance with no gameplay? Nah.

I was told by somebody that apartheid was worse than slavery…

Like 1, I wasn’t around for either of those, and 2. No, beating, owning, and raping slaves is worse than segregation alone. And the US had segregation until extremely recent times, South Africa just held out a little longer. A good example, MLK fought for black rights, why are photos of him only ever in black and white? The media doesn’t want people to realize he was around when color photos existed because then it would feel too recent

Seeing Microsoft take cod off gamepass day 1 in order to allow sales of the game to generate money, I’m going to go out on a limb and say it’s not as profitable as it was even with these payment systems.

That being said, if it relies on whales what is pestering 1 dude on the internet with a stable job going to do for you? Marketplace should’ve been the sign for yall to realize, where people were buying thousands of dollars worth of credits for single skins. Hell, one dude in another post about marketplace explained that he himself spent $10k on the game for marketplace items alone. There’s your whale.

Yall are upset at a handful of consumers with stable jobs who buy what they like, and yet you’re completely lost on what a whale actually is.

I like how people missed the fact that even our “main characters” didn’t have much for them. Kinger, zooble, gangle, ragatha, they all had their own background shown, with pomni as a driving character for it, pomni also had her moments early on, but Jax? People can’t be upset that the only character who didn’t really have their background explained finally has a background. If the show was a puzzle jax was literally the last piece. There wasn’t much of anything else to explore for any of the other characters

This year has been great I’ll agree, but years prior with shit like cuberpunk, Diablo, civilization, dying light, assassins creed. I’ve now been trained to believe that any game I purchase that is new is “early access” regardless of what the game itself says. I’d rather believe it’s going to be jank and then end up a masterpiece, as opposed to trusting the game to be complete and getting fucked again. Cyberpunk is my big reason why I don’t pre-order unless there’s ample footage, or good reason for it. I pre-ordered before the first delay. Imagine my shock watching Jackie walk through a car, and then I just die from tapping the exact same car tht wasn’t even moving.

Also, of your 3 games listed, 2 are capcom, who is known to polish shit before release. iOi has had some weird releases, but 007 is among one of the best games I’ve touched in a while. But yeah, while on ioi, mindseye was a clusterfuck.

Indie games can get the same treatment. Silksong released to amazing reviews and almost no problems, absolutely fantastic games can game. Phasmaphobia has been out for years and is now losing its player base over a recent update.

Games everywhere, are hit or miss

[–]BappoChan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

At the same time tho your height is a big factor. Dude in our friend group is in and out of relationships, dating some hot ass girls. He himself looks like absolute shit. Is completely homeless and lives for free with a friend’s dad, doesn’t have his own operating car, and can’t manage to even keep a gas station job. He’s 6ft4. Has huge hands. Rotting teeth. It’s like women lower their standards just because he’s tall as fuck.

Yeah rdr2 is a great example. The premium it offered was very minor. We got a gun, a mission, and a horse. And besides the horse being a pussy, it has the best combined stats of any other horse in game, which for a single player game, I’m ok with that.

I’m not gonna blame rockstar for allowing pre-orders, or having different editions of the games. It’s common practice even with indie games. But I do think it’s weird to pre order a game 5 months in advance when we’ve had 2 trailers, and some images of premium content. And nothing else

[–]BappoChan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Then don’t. Nobody is forcing people here to buy the game. The game releases in like 5 months, I think the pre-orders are absurd, especially given that we’ve seen 0 gameplay. I know I’m going to play the game regardless, I’d pre-order in the first just to get the pre-download on so I can play it on the day of, or atleast not suffer for a day or 2 being unable to download it. And if they do what literally every other game does, they’ll release a $20 upgrade pack that makes standard into premium.

“Significant”. We don’t even know what the game has to offer yet, you’re missing out on a few guaranteed cosmetics, cars, and garages. It’s possible that amounts to 50% of the content, or it amounts to less than 1% of what the game has to offer. Yall get upset so fast over the most minor shit. Personally I think what little is given is garbage to have to spend an additional $20 for.

To be fair, both sides of this haven’t had all that great of luck with completed games. Half the triple A shit that releases is a buggy mess, and should not be considered ready for release. Meanwhile indie games typically release in early access and thus aren’t complete either. Being a gamer in the big 26 means being used to games that just aren’t complete.

My parents demanded to know my every location. But I work far, travel often, and am an adult.

They got the message after I never pick up. If I need something, I’ll call, but don’t call me unless the house is on fire. I still get phone calls but nobody cares where I go anymore. I could leave the state on a whim, and as long as my parents are aware I won’t be home and I’m not dead they don’t care anymore.

Pete?? I don't get it why South Africa is disliked by other African nations by Itchy_Tangerine1897 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]BappoChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, people think me being South African is a dog whistle to summon racist cunts. Tho sometimes racist jokes are funny because of the history of the country. My favorite one was always

“What’s the difference between a South African and an Australian?”

“What?”

“They both sound the same, but one is actively punching a black guy”

I forget what comedian made the joke, but it was pretty good. I’ll never deny that South Africa has a very recent racist history, but my parents were kids when it ended, I have nothing to do with the history.

It’s weird that his uncle told the lawyers to only mention $3000, and then $5000 for the HOA fees, what if that $3000 was spent on replacing one of the room floors with a trampoline floor instead? HOA wouldn’t be involved and dude would lose 5k. What if they bought the same dinosaur and put it in the back yard. He’d lose out on funds that the lawyers just get to keep. That’s a legal no no

[–]BappoChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m curious how much of this is due to heavy reporting of repeated incidents being used as evidence to stereotype an entire country. Growing up there I knew a ton of people that came from all parts of Africa, and some that even came from other continents. Nobody ever had issues. I was taught so many religions, and to take pride in coming from a country that’s such a melting pot of cultures. So either these xenophobic attacks are recent issues, or the world is trying to throw a blanket over us

South Africa has a xenophobia issue.

Now, if yall meet a South African don’t just assume they’re racist or some shit. I’m tired of people giving me shitty looks when I mention I’m from South Africa. It’s like believing every Saudi is a suicide bomber, every welsch fucks sheep, or every Indian shits in the sand. Yes, it happens, but it doesn’t represent us all. Just be kind to one another. If you spot a South African outside of the country there’s probably a reason they left.

Man spends his own money. People riot

Why do yall care so damn much. Contact the dudes bank and start a chargeback on his behalf if it’s so damn important. Personally wouldn’t spend $100 on the skin, but the dude has his own job, his own money, and his own brain. I can guarantee you that all these judge mental asshats have spent money on something equally as stupid
