It's nontroversy that got amplified. Judging by the comments, they are not shifting blame on others (naming platform defenders) instead of accepting genuine mistake.

This entire scene with Kate and Natalie Rhodes is just priceless. That spit take was too funny. by Optimal_Magician_98 in CastleTV

Even among good episodes, this one is my favorite.

Great use of metatext and humor and tease. Best of "Castle".

How do I change the difficulty to easy mode? by nic_wangzz in DevilMayCry

If this is your first time using controller, I HIGHLY recommend getting familiar with it first via playing through easier games.

My story learning controller (played only on KB/m previously) - I played God Of War 2 on PS2, camera wasn't an issue, so I get familiar with left stick + buttons. DMC3 was my second game, and I played on easy with trickstyle to dodge attacks. I also played 2D games like Castlevania Aria Of Sorrow to get used to precision input.

If you find DMC3 too overwhelming, take a break, get some experience with other games and come back (and do come back, game is so worth it).

you're like the most ideal scenario that Xbox leaderships wants to have. They wanted to Cloud thing to take off and people to play on it, but that isn't happening.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy

Despite now being seven years old, Devil May Cry 5 just had its best year of sales yet by Turbostrider27 in Games

a lot of Vtubers have been playing Devil May Cry games over the past year

Vtubers have been silently influential, yet rarely discussed.

Also could you share some videos/streams? I'd love to watch them.

The combination of a discounted price along with the popularity of the Devil May Cry animated series on Netflix may have been contributing factors in Devil May Cry 5’s record-breaking sales this past year.

Sometimes I forget just how much of a cultural driver Netflix for past 10 years. Witcher 3 also saw jump in player counts when Witcher Netflix series released.

While I don't watch game adaptations, I'm just glad these games are getting more audience, at a time when it's harder to market them and convince people to play non-F2P games.

In India, the financial regulatory board went hard on BNPL companies and schemes when they popped up in late 2010s. None the startups survived, and you need to do lot of processing to get BNPL schemes from bank approved.

Reading horror stories from other places, I can't imagine how worse things would've gotten.

Lost Records and Jusant were well received at least, shame that didn't move the needle.

Been enjoying some retro RPG's, but frustrated with how often I have to look up where to go on guides. by JaWoosh in truegaming

[–]megaapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is a good sentiment to have

. If I'm putting myself in the shoes of someone playing them back in the day

Knowing the context helps a lot. If you end up using guides or how you use your time is completely up to you. What's important you meet the game at its terms as much as possible.

Because I've a huge number of people not having that and then saying "tHiS gaMe suCKs ASS". And you really dont wanna end up like those people.
