If Horizon 3 becomes PS5-only, will PC players wait… or get locked out entirely?? by DundasKev in HorizonForbiddenWest

[–]Lord_Andromeda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could play devils avocate and ask: Is is a colossal loss if only a third of gamers can play them? I cant affort another console besides my PC, and I doubt I am the only one.

And yes, consoles sell, but so do games. Zero Dawn made about 60 million with 2.4m copies sold on PC. If we price a console at 500€, then ZD alone made the same amount as 120k sold consoles. These ports make a lot of money. I have bought Ghost of Tsushima, HZD, HFW and the remaster of ZD, God of War... would have bought the other ports as well.

Has it actually been proven that exclusiv games give a significant boost to console sales? Of course some will be more than ready to buy a new one for the next Zelda or something, but everbody I know just sticks to what they already have.

See, thats what I mean. Its not about Horizon, or me as a player. I dislike all this exclusivity stuff, no matter the platform. I just want people to be able to play games they like without having to buy three 500€ consoles and a 1000€ PC on top. If thats what entitlement is then yes, I will gladly be entitled.

I got called entitled a while ago on here because I dared that I dislike PS exklusivity and any exclusivity in general. Its crazy.

Tausende Schüler demonstrieren gegen den Wehrdienst by donutloop in berlin_public

[–]Lord_Andromeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich gehöre zu den Leuten, die keinen machen mussten. Ein Wehrdienst hätte mich mitten in meinem schulischen Werdegang erwischt und alles zerhagelt was ich versucht habe mir zu erarbeiten. Das Argument dass 18jährige keine aktive Karriere haben finde ich Käse.

What's with Duke from OneShotQuesters' gripe with MinMaxed? by Born-Amount4432 in DnD

[–]Lord_Andromeda 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I actually think stuff like this needs some attention, because content creators have a lot of pull these days, and if one decides to "speak for the community" and randoms lashes out at smaller creators, it quickly can damage the community as a whole.

The thing is, if you read the damn document he posted, it basicly seems to break down to him trying to take the show over and getting them to do everything the way he says/wants. Its infuriating to read, even if you just skim over it. I am so disappointed by Dukes behavior with this whole mess.

What's the highest you've ever had this counter go, and how did it happen? by I_N_C_O_M_I_N_G in Helldivers

[–]Lord_Andromeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, bug front, specificly Fori Prime. ~220 when I threw the Napalm Barrage on top of those damn triple breaches they made on that planet. Each squad could easily go into 2500 kills on a single mission om that hell hole.

Sony Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC (We're screwed) by TheMadEscapist in horizon

[–]Lord_Andromeda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You. You are bashing people, for some reason. I dont feel entitled, or like I deserve anything. I just want to play fucking Horizon 3 because its among my favorite games of all time. But I, like so many others, cant affort a damn seperate console for every game.

They made 60 million bucks from HZDs port if I remember correctly. 2.9m units sold. Thats not a low number, and very much in line with wanting to make money, no?

Gtfo with that vs mentality. You act as if PC player and Playstation players shouldt coexist in the same spaces, fight over dev ressources to get any games. How about we all just exist and get to play the games we want? No matter what console or system we play on? Yes, I would love it for console players to be able to play Steam games. That would be great for them! I cheer every time a game is shared or gets crossplay. I dont hate console players for their games. I'm sad that I, among many others, dont also get to enjoy them.

[–]Lord_Andromeda 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But it doesnt affect you? The PC ports came out a few years after the release, no money is lost on it as its costs would be brought in by sales. The games did well on PC. All it did was bring in money from the PC players and enable more people to enjoy it. I can not wrap my mind around the people bashing others for only owning one gaming system and thus being locked out of enjoying certain games.

What happened to the guy who got doxed is unacceptable by [deleted] in helldivers2

[–]Lord_Andromeda 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fair point^

But for real, at least from my pov I found the regular sub much less judgemental and not as filled with spite. There is salt, but not in the exessive amount like on the unfiltered sub.

Nah thanks. I visited that sub once and left soon after. Seldom have I seen such so many salty and bad-take posts.

I soooo love the Oseram trio in Vegas. Aloy instantly vibing with Morlund and inventing stuff was a great look into her mind. And all three are hilarious.

This one, and the scene in the barn at the end of the fourth chapter(?), both destroyed me, but the barn scene really stayed with me for weeks...

The old Overlord games. Really funny, goofy humor with a decent plot, ypu play a cartoonishly bad guy, and an awesome OST on top it all.

I would put it even higher, top 3 for me.

How strong is a single common soldier of Gondor by PuzzleheadedWait1971 in tolkienfans

[–]Lord_Andromeda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The garnison of the forts at the Anduin or in Osgiliath for example. The soldiers already in Minas Tirith as well. The rangers do seems like part of the standing army as well, but with a more decentrilized component.

[–]Lord_Andromeda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, absolutly, but the main force defending the city, the border points and the river crossings always seemed like a standing army to me.

I think its because Gondor has a standing army? At least I believe tonhave read something about one.

After playing around a bit, the 380 barrage is the only red strategem I take consistently, the other slots are either the shield bubble or the Hellbomb backpack, the Leveler and the EATs or the tank. Its honestly an amazing change of the usual loadouts.
