As someone who didn’t grow up with Halo and only played it when MCC came out on PC, I liked the campaign a lot and personally had way more fun with it than the previous games. It felt like Far Cry Halo which scratched an itch I didn’t knew I had. That said I don’t think Halo’s core audience is anywhere remotely like me.

You haven’t seen the MW2 2022 UI have you? It’s like these companies are trying their best to make the worst UI.

The ads are for their own services though, doubt they’re earning any direct profit from advertising their own services.

go in completely wonky directions, and in general are so generic and repetitive

Do you have an example because these 2 points seem like they are at odds with each other.

Does Nasuverse count? Took us forever to get a confirmed date for Strange Fake and Mahoyo’s still nowhere to be seen.

I really despise this variety of unsolicited “your problem never existed/doesn’t matter” tech support

That’s not what they said though? They’re just saying the problem doesn’t exist for them on Samsung’s newer software. It’s not out of the question that the problems your describing have been resolved since then.

Honestly I just want them to not use trash subs or even worse, machine translated subs. There’s no reason why fans doing translation for free can get far better results than a company with an actual budget. Until then, I’m choosing to support the studios by buying the blurays when they come out instead.

Hmm I wonder if I haven’t had these issues because I’m on a flagship. 6 GB seems rather low unless it’s a midrange device?

Man how many things do you have running in the background and how much ram do you have that this is becoming a problem?

That’s basically all of Ubisoft’s games and despite the loud minority online, the games still sell really well and better in each release. That consistency is what I like about them. Their recreation of historical cities are quite pretty and the gameplay is generally enjoyable. I do wish they kept up the consistency with the story though. Shadows’ story was such a waste of a good location.

There’s this patch which I heard has been good, haven’t gotten around to it though: https://www.saintsrowmods.com/forum/threads/saints-row-2-juiced-patch.21627/

The reboot could’ve been good, there was a video documenting the original vision before they ended up with the final product. Tl;Dr They were way too ambitious and objections from the new publisher changed almost everything about the game for the worst.

I thought it was a sequel to Firewatch for some reason based on the name alone and didn’t really bothered with it.

Respawn still made some pretty fun games. But errr yea that’s pretty much it.

You’re referring to the Android based ones right? I’m looking for a Windows or SteamOS based one for my Steam library.

I wish there were a handheld competitor to the Switch Lite though. I don’t need anything powerful, I want a small screen for my small hands and can fit in my pocket. As much as I like my Steam Deck, it’s way too big and heavy for that use case.

With a Switch or Switch Lite, it’s still somehow light enough to use while standing on a train but with a Steam Deck, that’s just not feasible.

Great if your culture encourages that I guess? I do that in East Asia and I’ll get weird stares from everyone. And they’ll ask you to mind your own business which, I agree. It’s basic respect here to not talk on the train.

Anyone know if Nexon is a concern for this game? I haven’t heard much about them recently but their shitty practices from way back then (and continuing) from their older MMOs doesn’t inspire confidence.

Can’t say I’ve ever had any of those consoles, just playing devil’s advocate here. Personally as a PC gamer who’s been called on for support countless times for driver issues, launcher issues and what not, that’s all I can attest for.

All the driers are basically handled by windows update or are already in the kernel.

Eh… There was an issue a while back with Nvidia drivers causing all sort of issues and requiring a rollback. While it’s not something you would have to deal with often, from the perspective of the technically inept, that one tine they may have to do this would ruin their day and also whoever they’re calling for support.

The average person is far less competent with technology than you may think.
