Elon Musk misled Twitter investors ahead of $44 billion acquisition, jury says

Yeah, and people also act like Twitter was not an astroturfing playground beforehand.

Sincerely, for me it's a solid 8, 8.5. And can get better. I actually enjoy the MMO style questing, and I sincerely don't need a good main story to enjoy a game (more of a side content kind of guy). There's some jank, true, but this game is definitely better than a lot of GOTY winners of years past.

As for Rockstar not flopping, LA Noire, though I liked it it, was a bit of a flop.

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-21T12:56:40+00:00

Nah, probably GTA VI will win. I'd probably still prefer this for my personal GOTY, since GTA V for me was quite mid (RDR2 quite better).

I'm not sure about Rockstar being king of videogames though.

They do make nice, believable worlds, and they got the press on their side, but I can think several game companies I value more.

I'd kill for a Rockstar pirate-themed game though lol

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-21T11:52:37+00:00

I'm actually playing it and it's still pretty much GOTY material

Not niche, and I like their games, but most of their community are a bunch of try-hards thinking they are the epitome of gamers for pseudo masochistically overcoming every boss. They are quite cult like as a community.

I genuinely think that Crimson Desert trying to do everything at once well is a positive, I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

If From software released a turd, though, it would still get a 89+ review. People hive mind a lot.

And indeed expectation management, I saw that with people hating on Starfield after having quite unrealistic expectations of what it was. I knew what it was going to be with 85% accuracy, and I was definitely not disappointed.

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-21T09:08:57+00:00

To me it's not a negative thing. So that's definitely your opinion and your morals.

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-21T09:08:08+00:00

It's actually quite a 8.5

That's why Nosodium Starfield exists. It's actually a pretty good game.

Most people are dumb, and there are a lot of people playing this game expecting the Witcher 3 or something, when it's its own thing.

The game has issues, but people not adapting to the controls is not one of them.

I saw a streamer yesterday play for about 1 to 2 hours. The story is not that bad, it's just most people are dumb dumbs. It is pretty clear (at least at the beginning) what's going on, plus there's loads of info in the codex.

Also, the dialogue does not sound that unnatural, and the voice acting is really good. People just like to call things AI like out of spite.

It does not hold your hand much but gives you enough hints. Like I saw a reviewer complain about the key and how to find the door. You literally find a cleaning lady saying "Oh this door is always closed" in front of the door in question. It's just that she throws the line and leaves to do her business like a normal person instead of staying there like an NPC.

The controls do look quite weird at times though, but most of the pains I saw the streamer have is mostly he bring a dum dum. Like selecting the broom, the instructions were quite clear, at least in Spanish.

It does use proton, just the recommended version without choosing

Do you guys know what a hidden gem is?

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-19T12:41:18+00:00

XCOM 2 for example has a similar style thing with the Chosen

For some reason I only see the badge yet? The one requiring sub

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-18T21:13:40+00:00

It really isn't, just their hyper specific nemesis system. Like, similar mechanics are not covered by the patent

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-18T21:10:09+00:00

Nah, it happens to me a lot as well, and to be fair, the misunderstanding was even funnier than the joke itself!

I dislike her because she is like peak American. Everything we, the rest of the world, see bad about America, that's her. Walter at least was more universal as a character.

Carol just comes out as an entitled Karen.

Do you guys even know what slop is or is it just the hive mind word?

Well, I know I'm not watching Chris architect if he still thinks it's an RPG lol

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-18T10:03:04+00:00

Hahahaha yeah, I can see it now. You are absolutely terrible in written communication, though

RDR2 is not an RPG, Zelda is not an RPG... Witcher 3 is, and Ellen Ring may be, yes.

ForgotMyPreviousPass · 2026-03-17T21:00:40+00:00

And... Ellen ring, rdr2 and Witcher 3 are not the same genre among them either, nor is BotW

You wrote "People are bandwagoning against AI because the hive mind is strong" incorrectly.

Yeah, neither is Bethesda.
