You lost me at massively multiplayer. A single factory layout for one single player is enough to tax a system running Satisfactory. This will have to be dumbed down, people need to ignore the labels it's flashing out and wait until the gameplay loop is revealed.

... By doubling down on Steam being a subscription service by actually telling you it was, or how Steam admitted it would basically not allow accounts to be passed through inheritance and there is only one service that says they will try, that being GOG? We literally have to fight to have libraries of old games when the generations before had no problem having libraries of their old entertainment to access, communally so even.

The article really is disingenuous. All there is that is seriously doing this is a EU petition, one that will be dead on arrival because most of the affected games sell themselves as subscription services and because shit in the EU gets done when lobbyists usually aren't homogeneous across country lines, and for this they are. A slap warning or two, that's about all this will accomplish.

If people moved their game collections over to GOG from Steam, and were clear that this was the reason they were doing it, that would accomplish a lot more. It's not going to happen, just look where governments are sliding towards, it isn't towards consumer rights and society as a whole.

I hope this article isn't because the industry might consider shifting to a complete subscription model, I really can't afford the rising cost of new games on release or overpriced subscription models.

Sounds like basically Torchlight I & II.

So are they basically going to wipe my mind so that I can rediscover the mouse click loot based ARPG genre again? It was a good genre, but it just so happens that improvements in performance and capability have made other genres more entertaining for me.

Miss Status Quo doing Miss Status Quo things. It's funny how much she looks like Mitch McConnell nowadays, and apt.

This really isn't that bad, it's an opportunity to be creative as well. They can replace the balls with anything, say, talismans that they have to stick on the creatures. When summoning them back, they could be reading off of these talismans. It would ironically have more of a Japanese vibe than Pokemon. Other alternatives: for summoning, just replace the balls with curled up miniature versions of the creatures that just expand into size and the capture device can be an artifact that shrinks them and turns them into stone statues you can place in your base. It could go full on occult into summoning circles. They could make it customizable into anything the player chooses as a jab at Nintendo at how worthless their patent is.

They prop up whatever the Russian troll factories prop up. You can tell by what's unsaid, how much less of a problem they have with Trump.

Kind, well cultured people? Please, direct me to them so I may shit on them.

Honestly, give me a good singleplayer vampire game that has Netflix Castlevania-like depth.

Why did they go multiplayer instead of story driven singleplayer? It almost kept me from Deathloop, too.
