I fucking hate modern gaming

Don't buy AAA games at release, and instead try out popular indie titles. They're usually a quarter of the price and some of them have become my favourite games of all time. Indie games have small teams of passionate devs who have total creative control.

AAA games will typically release a "game of the year" edition a year or so after release with twice the amount of content the original game had for half the price.

Don't buy AAA games

SAY NO MORE! I'm on it, chief!

They also have 1/100th the bugs.

Nowadays buying games at release is doing yourself a disservice. You pay way more for way less than someone 6+ months later who gets it on sale with fixes already done

Great! But do they have memes?

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago

If you wait they do

But then you'll miss out on the pre-order exclusives. How can you even play the game if you don't get that car with the special dickbutt livery? How will you defeat enemies if you don't get that special cabbage-shooting gun?

This exception to this rule seems to be Nintendo titles but the caveat is that they’re on outdated hardware (and their own thing).

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

The exception to the Nintendo rule is Scarlet and Violet. That game was extremely buggy and absolutely unpolished when it came out. Yet compared to other triple AAA titles of coming out around the same time, it looked like a game with almost no glitches whatsoever.

I never seen a problem with Sony games actually.

Don't buy at release, be a patient gamer. Comes with benefits too.

real (my passion for gaming has slowly atrophied from childhood as capitalism has taken hold, while passion for creating anything more than a busted cash-grab has long gone)
