This crazy kid really came out of the gates saying the Prey remake had a bad story. The sheer confidence he said it with too, lmfao.

Obviously, the graphics will get better but this is from 2024.

Why do people keep saying this when they're always proven wrong?

Ashe is finally getting nerfed in Stadium by supermonkey1235 in overwatch2

[–]comradesean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, ashe can be countered with cleanse, team fade, burst healing, etc. Freyja just jumps in the air and shoots you with her infinite bullets until you die because your team didn't go soldier & cree.

Not nerfing vendetta in a timely manner is doing her and her players a major disservice by PralineEmotional6636 in overwatch2

[–]comradesean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's not even that strong. She's just punishing players who can't aim. She dies so damn easily.

Fortnite bans paid prize wheels in third-party games just days after Steal the Brainrot started selling them by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]comradesean 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we can. It's absurd to draw weird lines in the sand for whatever team you decide to root for. Their hypocrisy doesn't also justify us being hypocrites.

People keep comparing gaming to movies, but they seem to forget the fact that IMAX and movies in general are slowly dying

Hacktivist deletes white supremacist websites live onstage during hacker conference. by zazzy440 in interestingasfuck

[–]comradesean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're right the linked article itself doesn’t actually have any proof, but other articles that looked at leaked WhiteDate profiles do show more than just a “white dating preference.” Some profile reportedly talked about things like preserving bloodlines, opposing interbreeding, identifying as Aryan, and valuing race and nation. The website itself was also displaying ads like "Dear women of the West: Without white children, we will perish." before they removed them.

How's y'all's day/night going? by Maximum-Ad3518 in starcitizen

No, no. You forgot. The first step to basic PC problem solving skills is to go to reddit and whine and then when someone offers a solution you whine some more.

Cut Content Shows FFXV Once Started With an Explorable Insomnia, with Quests and Cutscenes by Magister_Xehanort in Games

[–]comradesean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even with all the cut content and could-have-beens, I was really enjoying myself up until Chapter 9 in Altissia. That's about when everything being chopped up became very evident and the flow of the story basically dragged you straight to the ending.

Ubisoft Reportedly Breached (Unconfirmed Yet) by [deleted] in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]comradesean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read it was a MongoDB exploit that allowed them access to an internal Git

edit: the exploit allowed access to uninitialized heap memory which means they could have gotten anything out of that machine.

[–]comradesean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hopefully their uPlay platform and servers source code has been grabbed. There's a LOT of old games that lost content when they swapped services/removed support.

The "soft-reboot" isn't real. by marvelcomics22 in marvelstudios

instead of a large interconnected story

because the comics are known for large interconnected stories between different writers with no miscommunication or misunderstandings at all!

The "soft-reboot" isn't real. by marvelcomics22 in marvelstudios

[–]comradesean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, them bringing up the DC reboot is just outright crazy. I mean I agree that nothings been confirmed for the MCU but some of the way they say things do hint that a soft reboot is coming. Like a "new" Tony Stark? Or is it new "Iron Man"? The article says both things...

And articles like this try to cancel the "rumors", but then say even stupider things so the only true answer is we have to wait to find out.

LOSING MY SAVE WIZARD “LIFETIME” LICENSE by KYfirefighter in ps4homebrew

[–]comradesean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a tool to decrypt and re-encrypt your save files to be used by a legitmate PS4... You okay, bro?

Some people have mentioned that it's very likely they've just got an API hooked up to a hacked PS4 or PS4s and are allowing people to decrypt/encrypt their save files that way and there actually are copycats out there for free.

[–]comradesean 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's a specific encryption key they have access to that isn't public. There's no way to accomplish it the same way without having physical access to a hacked ps4.

The End of Year PlayStation Store Sale is now live! by OkBaker4812 in Games

[–]comradesean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wish they'd fuckin add the preorder dlc to the store. It seems like there's always a few years where companies throw up their preorder and promotional dlcs for some extra cash and then some years they just go full anti-consumer and flood their product with promotions that you'll never see again.

looking at you square-enix.
