Mandy,

and that folks, is why the gaming industry is not only in such an dystopian god awful state, but it only goes down from here, there aint no bottom

Mandy,

can these subpar double triple a games stop not compressing and optimising their shit again, and not dumping all of their over compensating textures and files on us? no?..okay…

Mandy,

with how this game looks, i refuse to believe that that amounts to that many gb of data (u sure thats 4k?)

Mandy,

Not only hyping a features they had for several games now, but I bet my left ovarie thats they all gonna be as broken as their earliest iteration

Mandy,

cant wait for the backwards flying dragon, i mean the backwards flying spaceships

Mandy,

i like modding as much as the next gal but this type of relationship bethesda has with their fans is not good, at all, and i never see anyone ever mention it

Mandy,

exactly, i would have no problem in that case

Mandy,

Im no stranger to daggerfall either but that just highlights the problem with the company but some fanatics who blindly follow then

Their games don’t have to be buggy messes till modders do bestesdas job for them, mods should primarily enhance, not fix.

And these people who don’t care (as you that is) are one key problem why bethesdas and other companys launch their games like an alpha they’ll never fix (hows their ducttape held severly outdated engine gonna cripple this title I wonder)

Mandy,

dont you see the inherit problem that these devs all themselves created with the increasing cost, increasing scope, increasingly forcing bigger retention spans? these games dont need to be this needlessly huge and even than there is no need to have them almost broken (have you SEEN how cd project red always releases their games?)

i never said it was that much better back than, its just much easier to have all of this garbage available than it was back than cause now its flooding the online stores

and of course “do it better yourself than”, i dont have to be a mastercoder to recognise subpar quality, i dont need to be a masterchef to know when something tastes bad

Mandy,

A lesson that isnt needed Mtx are as prevelant as they are cause they sadly work

“Everybody”.shits on d immortal and overwatch 2 Yet they still bring in huge profits

Mandy,

like i said, the reason all of these games are as bad as they are, cause it fucking works, and i hate it

Mandy,

i started streaming and this week i have the time to go all in with it, im playing one game a day this week in this order Super mario world links awakening (second stream for it) baldurs gate enhanced edition nightmare creatures twilight princess (on gamecube, also second stream already)

good times

Mandy,

yeah those tactics from fucking gambling industries really worked like the industries he came from. how this barebones stock asset using trite got so popular is a genuine surprise, i palyed a couple of game and was bored out of my mind

Mandy,

payaya paya payayaaaaaa

but seriously, WHAT, HOLY FUCKING SHIT YES

Mandy,

remember when devs actually tried to FUCKING COMPRESS THEIR FILES AND NOT MAKE THE GAME NEEDLESSLY MASSIVE

What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

Mandy,

Games that are made for the sake of making the game insread of being made to squeeze as much retention and money out of you as possible

Now thats a style that is becoming increasingly rare

Mandy,

the indie scene may be greater for that but is also filled with the same money making trite and on top of that constantly copying each other and barely doing anything new.

Mandy,

Thank you but I trust youtubers opinions as much as a gaming “journalist” which is to say, not at all

Mandy,

Youtubers are inheritor by the virtue of their existence just are a little to biased like the gaming magazines, I also find text much easier digestable than 2,5 minutes of invideo ads, sponsors selfplugs, like button smashing.or whatever else they want to subject me to

I spend far more effort trying to find gold than one really should have, there shouldnt be a need to spend so much time

Take a genuine hard look at this industry, an industry full with exploitation, lootboxes, micro and macrotransactions, the same 5 ideas ad naseum, where for every cuphead you have 10 slendermans, (thats just the tip of the iceberg)

you mean to tell me in THAT industry its ne with the problem? Cause thats a fair assassment and ill support whatever conclusion you may or may not draw

I hate how much my brain starts remembering interesting stuff when I finally sit down to play a video game

This might sound super weird, but whenever I actually find time to go “I have like 4 hours to spare, might as well play a game,” my brain just goes “hey, remember that movie you wanted to watch?” or “hey, remember that thing you wanted to wikipedia?” or “Might as well pay rent now, it’s due in 3 days.”...

Mandy,

I don’t think I have ever seen Wikipedia used as a verb before, funky

Mandy,

That happens literyally every time with these hackjob of a company

Bethesda Is Changing The Way You Pickpocket In Starfield (www.gamespot.com)

Thanks to a video posted by Reddit user OkPain2022, we're given a glimpse of how pickpocketing will work. Of course, you'll still need to approach them by crouching, and after you do that, a prompt will appear, allowing you to steal from them. After that, another menu will appear, showing you what they have and the odds of you...

Mandy,

so basically they changed barely anything?

Mandy,

Bro what did ff 14 do to you? who pissed in your chereos there? starcraft the elitism, the rage there is nothing that will ever come close to the levels of salt that that community produced

Mandy,

Symphony of the night and Mario 64 on stream baby

Mandy,

id rather not get lynched, thank you very much

Mandy,

algitht than if you like a nicely structured story than stay away its purposely confusing to "portray a certain type of mental illness", which i call bullhog on, a confusing mess is a confusing mess

combat i find too slow the game is generally boring to actually play

like it wanted to be an art project so bad bad just had to attach a game to it

Mandy,

ID rather not shell out up to and above 1k for an enthusiast item for people with too much money, but thank you

Mandy,

So yeah, vives a Lil expensive for a paycheck to paycheck gal

Mandy,

Does this game exist on other platforms?

Mandy,

Never got around to that one for one reason or another, ill see about that one

Mandy,

I a tually have sh1 on the list of games to stream, will add sh3

Mandy,

Huh, very interesting

what's your favorite Gameboy game that isn't Pokemon or Mario?

I've just rediscovered my childhood Gameboys, I grew up in the 90s and had an original, a color, an advance and an sp. My game collection has whittled down over the year to the usual suspects, Pokemons, Zelda's, Mario's and some other standards. But I want to dive into some games that 7 year old me would have brushed over. So...

Mandy,

I will never not shill advance wars 1 and 2 Great gameplay, great artstyle, great everyting

Mandy,

IMA stop right at the start, who gives a shit Play at any age ya want You shouldn't be bound by anything but yourself

Mandy,

the biggest example of sunk cost fallacy

i need to explain it away that way cause i refuse to accept people are this desperate for this

Mandy,

Are we gonna have 16 times the detail again?

Mandy,
