holy shit
The Xbox switch looks neat
I think you could just get a switch deck!
I could get a lot of things :V
I doubt that!
Basically
That company already made steamdeck like consoles. xbox partnered with them to make an xbox one
^ It's an xbox-branded ASUS ROG Ally steamdeck thing
Meatboy 3D is exciting
Game freak game actually looks kinda fun
Its not even coming to switch
Will do
$80
Microsoft W
These are really good numbers for the pre-release Dune MMO
only people who spent $70-$90 can play rn
the $50 tier is for the "release" on Tuesday
ok, I spent longer figuring this out than I probably should have
excluding refunds, I have paid AAA prices ($60+) for PC games 25 times in my life
On steam I have never bought a game at full AAA price
I need to add in Switch games to my count
I made a list of all games I paid more than $30 for (to include launch discounts or w/e) and excludes games which launched for $29.99 which imo is a tier down
looking through my list of refunds was my favorite part
remember Biomutant, remember Code Vein, remember Tales of Arise, etc.

other than Fate/Samurai Remnant being the most expensive non-deluxe ed. game I bought
my other funny observation was that I paid more for Divinity Original Sin 1 than I did for DOS2
Before I refunded it I spent like 25 CAD on DOS2
I pirate more games than I buy, but I was surprised how short my list was tbh
25 games over ~15 years
38 if you include $50 games
I bought Paradox DLCs for a couple years, probably pretty close to that before I just stopped bothering
once the quality dropped and the output increased
could be worse
Replying to Kribbles #kribbles1 >Civ 5: 671 hours >Civ 6: 40 hours I don't even own Civ 7 and probably won't ever buy it lol.
This is me with most series. I get into the series with a good game, play the other games and realize the newer ones aren't as good, then don't bother with future titles and go back to playing the ones I enjoyed the most.
I'm trying to think of a long-running series that does genuinely get better with each game
I can think of a couple 3-game series that are like that, but none past that
oh, that's a good one
even people who say P4 was peak, usually still really like P5
Yakuza sorta works as well, but then they did their big genre swap so it's hard to say it's 1:1 anymore
I can't agree with Persona getting better with each game because imo the Persona 2 games are way better than Persona 3
If you were around when Persona 3 came out then you definitely had the opportunity to experience Persona 2 (Innocent Sin, at least)
It got remade for the PSP. Persona 1 too
Most of my favourite games have random encounters, not that I particularly like that part though.
I am not a huge fan of the alternative of map encounters because then I just feel like I'm wasting time kiting them
Can you elaborate?
Oh yeah I really like SMT4A too.
