@AoF520@BlooHook An example of my latter point would be a post I came across detailing qualcomm’s plans to support dx12 natively on android in the future due to the growing trend of android pc emulation. This platform is truly the only one where user interests, trends and demands are seen and met
@TimoN11126461@tophatcod@AnAverageGamerX Fym mafia methods lol, that’s consoles, all steam does is host games and sell them through their storefront in a platform where others can do the same. And btw they dont have an influence over how much publishers charge for their games on other platforms, thats just mininfo.
@Skogjero This game is oozing with style and personality in every corner, level, bosses, characters, items, collectibles, etc. Was absolutely enamored by it.
@Skogjero Also alr had hundreds of games in my library when I was constantly playing elden ring (went overboard on steam sales and humble bundles), the game was that good.
@Skogjero I replayed elden ring so much to the point I started playing it like a boss rush beating every single one including sote bosses in a single day
@Skogjero I so wish I could forget everything i know abt elden ring and experience a first playthru again (especially since I was spoiled a shitton by the time i got the chance to play it)
@TimoN11126461@tophatcod@AnAverageGamerX Do u even know what an open platform is? Ur hardware isn’t locked down and u choose how ur gonna acquire the software. It says a lot that with a platform so open steam is successful enough to be among console giants that dont give their users the same liberty.
@TimoN11126461@tophatcod@AnAverageGamerX wtf do u mean steam feels cheap? Have u even used it? It gives proper visibility to indie games, game pages have actual reviews and people can’t rate the game without writing a review down, they dont gotta pander to shareholders cuz they’re private and no paid online.
@AnAverageGamerX Console companies are always gonna pull bs in order extract maximum value from users, making open platforms mainstream is the only way to escape their bs but the amt of vitriol i see against the only open platform (PC) online makes me believe yall aren’t ready for that convo
So the first the ff7 remake trilogy and its fandom absolutely blur the definition of a goddamn remake and now they’re blurring the definition of accessibility too?
a lot of yall don’t understand what accessibility is. grinding levels in video games is something a lot of people complain about. people who don’t have time to play games, people who have adhd, people who struggle to hold controllers for a long time, and lots of others will +
@Baby_Boyyyyy@davidscottjaffe@Steam The ecosystem in question basically being a cage that severely limits a ps player’s options, and the PlayStation thing applies to pretty much all consoles or subsidized hardware with closed systems (meta quests for example).
@Baby_Boyyyyy@davidscottjaffe@Steam PC is an open platform so valve has to always be alert pretty much since PC gamers have other options, for PlayStation however, they have full control over the hardware they sell so basically they dont have an incentive to be better so u just gotta put up with their bs ecosystem
