Always good to see someone in the industry push back on all of these shitty tactics the AAA publishers want to push.

    BG3 and Diablo 4 coming out the same year as legacy franchises of PC really shows how far the industry has fallen.

      My husband has a game pass sub for Xbox and he’s only bought 3 games this year; Diablo 4, Mortal Kombat, and BG3. Diablo 4 got broken almost immediately with shitty patches and he seriously regrets wasting the money. Mortal Kombat at least will be a slow burner as they space out the drops for the extra characters. But BG3 he’s been playing non-stop since Thanksgiving. (Like to the point where he checked in with me to ask if I was annoyed at listening to the audio constantly.) That game was well worth the price I just wish more games were like this.

        I remember asking my other half if the sound was annoying her, and she told me she enjoys the stories in the game.

          I enjoyed the story of the game but after watching Asterion’s sacrifice ritual for the tenth time I put my earbuds in and listened to a podcast for a bit. 😂

      Played D4 because my friends were playing it. It’s such a boring piece of shit. Somehow it loses everything fun the past 2 entries had.
