Yeah, some offense, but the Triple-Eh companies have been “dying” for over a decade now and it doesn’t look like they’re actually going anywhere anytime soon. Unfortunately.

Why did you say “garbage” four times in a row? rimshot, obnoxious canned laughter

Man, I hope the lawyers at the Big Three are getting ready to send Christmas cards to Riccitielo cause, uh, he’s pretty much going to be signing their paychecks if he keeps going

Fools and their money.

Yeah, not a developer or otherwise someone who works in the gaming industry at all, but a deal like that would definitely remind me about what mom always said about deals that sound too good to be true.

To be fair, that has at least as much to do with the last few entries setting the bar so low. And even then FF14 drops a few stinkers here and there cough Company of Heroes/Titan cough Paladin questline cough

The higher the pedestal you put somebody on, the further they have to fall.

ah shit here we go again.png

Between this bullshit and what seems like every Triple-Eh publisher suddenly developing massive diamond-hard boners for Denuvo (you’re welcome), it’s almost enough to make me want to go full Console Peasant. almost.

Mostly because it looks good for the suits and investors, and since it doesn’t actually seem to hurt their sales that much (hint hint)

Just one more reason why the obsession with the latest greatest OMGWTF HIGH DEFINITION GRAPHICS is the worst thing to happen to gaming since the Atari Jaguar.
