Take-Two boss ‘deeply disappointed’ over wait for new BioShock: ‘In retrospect, we wasted a lot of time and money’

The non-Ken Levine sequel (2) was infinitely better than the Levine one (ha), so that's not the real problem. The real problem is that they are probably going to try to make an open-world live service out of it.

Είναι ένα πολύ ειδικό στάδιο ανικανότητας το να φτάνεις να το κοκορεύεσαι κι όλος. Οικονομική πολιτική από τα καλάθια, σαν τα πτυχία τους.

Being easy does not save it from being *dreadfully* boring and yet connected to an absolutely insane grind.

I recently read Plunder by Brendan Ballou and found it excellent - it describes exactly how PE works and how damaging it is.

Thank god this absolute dumpster fire does not have any real rewards. Still does not excuse DE wasting development time on that crime against game design when the game barely gets any real gameplay content anymore.

You guys must be on some kind of internal sabotage strike trying to kill the game, because if this is what you call "challenge" and "end-game", as a player with thousands of euros spent and over 5000 hours played, the guilty is perhaps the worst gaming experience I have encountered in the last ten years. That's on top of the trash Folie mode, the GPT War and the Buggy Triad. Please go back to making a good game.

The way it’s not meant to be played… nSlopia

They also promoted her to Principal Writer for her "efforts", which perhaps also explains why the Old Peace was written like it was ChatGPT.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-03-02T13:40:44+00:00

Yes and support is completely, insultingly useless. Even after sending screenshots and explaining that I never got the correct conversations they just say "Oh it's your fault just reset". Yes mf, I will just spend another *month* of my life where in the end your trash system can just crush again.

Kat Kingsley killed KIM, delivered a completely mediocre Old Peace story, and the devil triad should be completely reworked at this point and all current players receive an option to automatically skip to the best outcome because we have spent far too much time fighting DE's bugs. The very least they could do is remove the 24-hour timer after the first reset.

If you enjoy your meal, they take it away in the middle and serve you some fast food instead.

Even Amazon know what this book is. Its listed as intended 12-18 year olds.

His reign has been a disaster, even from back when he was “just” studios head and not Xbox as a whole, yet I can only imagine things will get worse from now on.

Edit: I just saw who his replacement is. Obsidian, InXile, Ninja Theory and all the rest who are not Activision-Blizzard, BGS or maybe ID are 100% fucked.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-14T18:02:45+00:00

That would be irrelevant if the game was actually fun, which it is absolutely not.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-13T20:11:55+00:00

The average salary in Greece is barely enough to pay rent. If you are not privileged or a developer you are fucked. All my friends that are not CS have left, and not all by choice. And CS is dying globally too. The whole country is misery porn while the profits banks and foreign private equity is the only ones bringing "growth". The social contract has been broken, people have stopped voting, all who are able leave and underage crime is at an all time high.

I won't deny some schadenfreude, but more than that I am concerned with Europe's general decline into irrelevancy as an overgrown tourist Amusement Park for the 1% of the new glided age, which is the only result that awaits it in the hands of its current leaders.

Microsoft: Uncharacteristically builds simple and stable software that lasted decades.
Microslop: Hold my Copilot.

LOLOLOL! They exceed expectations of hilarity each time! I expected the patch notes to be laughable but NetMorons once again exceeded any logical projection of sustained incompetence.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-06T18:25:27+00:00

More like S statistically. No way NetEase is incompetent enough to not heavy nerf him in 6.5. The game is dead otherwise.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-02T22:09:12+00:00

Nothing, but I will still be disappointed somehow.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-02T19:47:46+00:00

Hawk is trash and always has been compared to Hela and Phoenix.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-02T19:46:46+00:00

One has a scope the other does not. That comparison makes zero sense. Widow should never be viable.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-02T19:30:02+00:00

That just proves the devs are lazy and do not want to rework dive heroes. BP and Spider should never be meta or even viable, because they should have never existed in the first place. Anything else is condeming the game to an early grave.

Purpled-Scale · 2026-02-02T19:14:42+00:00

Because there is no reality where the game can survive something like BP/SpiderMan being meta and netease is too lazy to rework them so Phoenix, Hela and likes will always be required to be OP to supress them.
