RIP Escapist Magazine

Your 4 year goal reminds me a lot of Cogmind’s development and the video about the journey

Best of luck

They can be archived without being playable

You mustn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger darling.

Imagine an archive for unreadable books, unwatchable films, and unplayable games too!

How about Elric of Melniboné?

How many more Targaryens and Geralts must we endure before this is adapted?

The schadenfreude here is delicious, alas the perils of being such a vehemently player-hostile game publisher 😂

Ahh, thanks for the clarification

Wow, feels so spiteful. It’s them not you.

To be charitable to the other side, perhaps this mod is so burned out on “just asking questions” that a sincere question has become hard to recognize 🤷‍♀️

Imagine you could sell $39.99 shovelware to almost every single kid that watches Jimmy Neutron, because you’re gonna drown that show in ads for it.

The child then grinds down the parents’ resolve and the money is eventually spent.

I totally didn’t witness this first hand when sculpting feces into nickelodeon-shaped games.

They had me for a hot second because I saw Into The Breach on the app store 🤩

But you can’t even run the game without logging in to a Netflix account 🤮

I mean I had one, but fuck that noise I’m not cosigning on that bullshit 😤

Nothing augurs success like hearing about the “incredible talent” that just went to “other teams at EA” 🙃

Star Trek Star Wars, spacey scifi, same bullshit.

Offending user indeed!

But seriously this individual is dumping toxins like a Capt Planet villain. I felt gross after scrolling their profile.

The original ending was a very “that’s it?” moment.

The actually added a new game-over condition, by allowing you to just shoot the annoying reaper child, to quell the frustrations people felt.

Even in the remaster is still feels like a choice between red, blue, or green color endings.

RIP Marauder Shields, the true final boss of ME3 🙏

That, to me, is the real tragedy of Mass Effect, looking back through this new lens. BioWare seems to have borrowed many concepts from Revelation Space, but very little of it is explored with any depth, and none of the ideas are given new twists that improve upon them.

Damn, didn’t expect a thoughtful analysis of Revelation Space and its impact on Mass Effect.

But since Mass Effect avoided most of the extra weird stuff, the ending of Mass Effect 3 never really had a chance to be good.

Ahh, can’t talk about ME without addressing the elephant in the room the controversial ending.

Good read 👍

As one who played every Dragon Age game, this expresses much of how I feel as well.

After such a long wait I wanted another Origins or Inquisition, but I got something else and it was a fine, forgettable, C+ entry. A game that wants you to wave a giant foam finger instead have thoughtful choices, but at least it delivered an ending.

My dude you’ve had the patience of a saint, which makes this final rebuke so fucking tasty 🌶️🔥

What do we usually call the method of killing people to send a political message?

“we” is carrying a lot of weight because one man’s ‘terrorist’ is another man’s ‘freedom fighter’

Locking up the community on they’re way out may have been well coordinated, but it isn’t well received.

It feels a lot more like capitalism than community: Listen up, I own the deed to this community and my property rights are supreme.

I guess I joined lemmy just in time for all the chisme 🫖☕

Edit: a word
