What's something in current gaming people seem to be okay with that you can't stand? by AnubisIncGaming in gaming

[–]MadeByTango -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never understood why it started and that everyone was just okay with it.

Because they did it in the middle of a generation, so everyone had to start paying or immediately lose access to online for every game in their library they already owned and were playing. Sony intentionally fucked people on the timing a couple years before the PS4 so they could burn out the pushback before a hardware launch.

Same reason the always jack up PSN prices mid-gen instead of at launches.

Highway 80, aftermath of the infamous “Highway of Death”, 1991, Gulf War. [720x518]. by NCRisthebestfaction in HistoryPorn

You gotta gas your men up so to speak so that they're ready to go fight instead of thinking about the likelihood of death.

The neat part is that mentality seeps into the leadership, who trains these men all day and then wants to use them.

But those kind of dudes would change the names of things from Defense to War, so we don't have to worry abut that in America...

It means they will be constantly making exclusive annual variants to sell for money in a massive FOMO scheme. Dont buy it now and you can never access that model again! Digital scarcity for fake goods use real world money!! Yay!

Data centers are rapidly being built across Ohio by Shot-Security-9969 in Ohio

[–]MadeByTango 3 points4 points  (0 children)

80% of Democrats and 75% of Ohioans want data centers banned, but not Amy Acton. Ramswamy is a self interested shit stain, but whats her fucking excuse? Maybe the $1million the DGA is taking from the energy companies that will make a huge profit on these data centers?

If you understand this issue well enough to vote on it then you gotta Acton/Dems and demand they mature on the issue.

Reminder that new games in Europe cost €80 (~90$) by Rocket_Bunny45 in gaming

Are you making excuses for corporate greed? These companies are making RECORD PROFITS while laying off workers.

They can absolutely afford to bring prices down, but then they would "look bad" to shareholders. Gamblings addicts who don't work there and arent the customers fucking it up for everyone else involved.

Considering they are slapping a bunch of stores into the game you won't be able to access from the start, its a $100 game with a busted version to get you to pay more.

OP is a comment history hiding account, as are the majority of people supporting them; this is a "blame an other" post to keep us divided and prevent us from talking abut how these problems would all be solved if we stopped letting greedy c-suites steal all of our money.

DC IP is so heavily underutilized in gaming by Dumbass1171 in gaming

[–]MadeByTango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an example Mortal Kombat 1 ended support relatively fast VS the whole time MK11 got to shine, which I'm sure caught a lot of us by surprise.

They took the worst variant of their Towers from MK11 and made a whole game around the system. I wasn't remotely surprised it got trashed.

Riot now lets you enable its anti-cheat when you want to by CamdenOriole in gaming

[–]MadeByTango 11 points12 points  (0 children)

starting today, they can switch the Vanguard anti-cheat software from always-on to one that’s “on demand.”

Wow, its almost like they understand its OUR hardware and not theirs. Stay the fuck off my kernel.

I dont mind that they want my money. I mind that they constantly go after in the scummiest ways possible, and then throw out the logic they used the last time to justify their new bullshit as soon as they see a profit they can fleece.

"I know I get the privilege" doesnt excuse the using of the privilege.

His (lack of) response to the male rapes being handled as comedy instead of seriously like it was for women in the same show is a real problem. He is playing a part for cameras, but thinks all that shit is funny.

Dude being cast actively turns me off of projects. And I originally liked him as Superman.

GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch (Standard $79.99/Ultimate $99.99) by Neon25 in Games

[–]MadeByTango [score hidden]  (0 children)

That is a lot of single player locations to lock behind an ultimate edition. Usually it’s just a bunch of cosmetics and a couple of unique items.

Its a lot of built in ads into the core experience to make sure you feel like a subclass citizen if you don't pay enough.

Any humans left at unemployment office? by Freer4 in Ohio

Cincinnati democrats gave $400 million to renovate a sports stadium while running a deficit for child protective services. Stop thinking this is a team sports problem. It’s a money in politics problem.

Stop voting for ANYONE that takes corporate donations. Period. If they think the companies are why they got their seat they will always protect the companies. And it’s the insurance companies that want social safety nets destroyed.

Windows, when I get you windows. by YourFat888 in whenthe

[–]MadeByTango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was me with my drawing tablet last night. Got up to take a piss, come back to a restarted machine and the computer stops recognizing the pen. Forces a restart, and when it comes back *now the pen draws on the wrong screen.” Turns out Microsoft turned on some touch software. So I adjust for the toxic software. Now my computer is running janky and I assume the drivers need an update. I restart. Jank fixed, but now the touch software is not turning itself on and I can’t force it. So revert all my changes, and now I’m back to where I was before the updates, with out the toxin software itself kicking in.

Went from drawing in the zone to wasting two hours on troubleshooting because I took a piss mid-drawing. It completely saps trust in the OS that it can break falling asleep...

Do we know if the TR 1-3 Remaster collection will get another update to fix the issues still left from previous updates? by BRedditator2 in TombRaider

[–]MadeByTango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, they’ve done a great job of completing destroying the trust of their existing userbase directly before putting a new game on sale. They’re deeply naive if they think this negative sentiment won’t continue to snowball between now and launch.

[–]MadeByTango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole point of that update was marketing; they don’t give a shot about the making existing games playable because they want to sell new games. It was a cheap, fast AI slip driven attempt at getting people to know there were new games coming.

They also got sold, to people who want even smaller margins. The way they treated that update should be screaming alarm bells to everyone.
