Yeah, that's a good point. Instead of "earning" the players attention constantly by providing something great... they realized they can just draw attention and then remove the moments where you'd quit.
And because you bought it, because you're playing it already, you just keep on going. Even if it's less fun, even if it's more like an obligation you adhere to out of habit, you still stick around.

The sad tragedy of it all is that it's not really the companies' fault. They just did whatever got them what they want the easiest and most reliable.
We players voted with our wallets. Every time they came up with a really bad idea, we said no - they said, "here is the same idea just a little less bad" - and we said alright, I'll buy that shit.

That's how all the bad got mainstream. Microtransactions, day-one DLC removed from the base game, battle passes, etc.

Sure not all fault lies with companies but it definitely lies with the investors and ceo's your bobby kotick's, randy pritchford's, jeff bezos, elon musk and bill gates who took advantage of this without ethics or remorse to get profit.

I will however agree we do vote with our wallets and they will do whatever they can get away with same as how the government can take power away from its citisens imperceptably over time with taxes.

Which is why i sometimes think aliens or robot overlord may not be so bad rather than the whole human attitude no one but humans should have the right to screw over and slowly kill humanity. either way it is one big reason why i have zero qualms pirating global companies that treat their customers like dirt. indie scene fortunately gives some hope of getting creativity and cool new ideas in general.

Stupid porn pirate forum hugely decreasing the amount of porn that is allowed here making us all melancholic and thinking about these annoying things we cannot really change. So uh... what kind of porn is your go to for having a wank?

Just start posting and keep posting. That seems like the easiest way. (or pay money)

I asked if they could reduce or remove the timeout for the Developer role, and they said they'd look into it.

It's good to know that Prestige 1 removes it, though that isn't in the description. That's almost reason enough to buy P1.

I realized that a few hours after getting M+. Getting to P1q should be easy with the current 45% discount at least.

Have you seen the trailer, the only reason it'd sell is Star Wars and Kennedy has done her part in ruining that franchise.

Looks like a standard Ubisoft game with a Star Wars skin

Do you mean Post-bit? I have nothing on my profile.

Well it's not really a fete, anyone can do it.

Kidding aside, I've done it myself. After high school I worked over nights in a grocery store stocking shelves. On my way home after work I nodded off and into the ditch I went, scared the ever-living shit out of me. It wasn't anything major, I woke up as I was going into the ditch and was able to get back onto the road, but that feeling was horrible.

Not even close to y'all kinda scary though, I was once "road hypnotized" driving across the most boringest, flattest, straightest, nothingest part of Canada. (NY to MI)
Just staring ahead, hands at 10 and 2, heard "Bup a Duh Bup a Duh Bup a Duh (those little bumpy things on the shoulder of road on the tires).
Looked down at the clock and 2 hours had passed that I have absolutely no memory of, at all.

Spoiler: alright folks have a good night im heading out

LOVE the "Gobbo Ladies Night" pic!

I forgot to mention. Backwards.
Got hit by a lake effect snowsquall just outside Wawa Ontario. Wound up hitting a patch of black ice, spinning 180 degrees, then skidding into the ditch and doing a barrel roll.
Walked away from that with a couple bruises and i bit my lip.

Damn. You were beyond lucky. That had to scare the Holy livin' shit out of ya...

it was... a joke, because I was not supposed to be responding to reports... that's all



I don't even know why I still trying. I'm losing my community, my team and after three months and 3 games played, I'm clearly don't care about games anymore, so... what's left?

Cheer up, dude. I think we know you're trying to do your best.
Tensions and emotions are still all over the place. Hopefully shit will settle down sooner than later.

Sorry, ended up losing internet. -_-

We can do loli in anything else as long as it's not within public. But it can't be AI for the time being. We want to remain on the safe side.

PS... We all know the pig war was bad enough for their eyeballs.

No worries.
I appreciate the response and the clarification/explanation.
No offense to the other dude, but I kinda wanted to hear it from "on high", rather than just speculation and rumours.

Yeah. I keep ping-ponging between phases where I push most of the blame on the immoral fuckwits at the head of companies & their shareholders, or wanting to strangle the gamers that have again and again voted against their self-interest by signing off on every single damn thing that made gaming worse.

Mhm. I've got two hands. Maybe I can strangle them both?

I will however agree we do vote with our wallets and they will do whatever they can get away with same as how the government can take power away from its citisens imperceptably over time with taxes.

Well, depends on what the AI overlords are like. Maybe we could have them be developed based on @Silwith's personality. Then they may rule us, but we fuck 'em long and hard.

Yeah, that's why I buy good innovative games, even if I "tested" them and don't plan on replaying them, but I absolutely do not buy triple-A battlepass garbage. Anything that's designed to primarily get my money gets either a cold shoulder, or a little visit from a fella interested in perusing the goods through a non-restricted borrowing programm.

Yeah, I've noticted how there's been a lot less activity and people on the last two days. Used to be I had to do 30-40 pages of backreading. Today it's just going to be 12.

Yesterday I checked out the latest (though short) update from "Over the Moon" and played the latest update of "Heritage".
Nothing as heart-warming as fucking your family.

Sounds about right. It's what big corporations do with franchises.

"We want to do a political show or game, but we know it won't sell."

"Slap <enter major franchise>'s name on it."

"Done."

That's how all the bad got mainstream. Microtransactions, day-one DLC removed from the base game, battle passes, etc.

And that's why I wait until all dlc is released and combined into a complete/gold/goty edition. Then I wait until that edition is on sale for around $20. I've got such a fucking backlog I have no need to play the best and newest games anymore.

Who do I see there, slowly creeping to the front?

Hey @Flaming1. How are you?

Have some goblins!

Here's one that's drawn.

i will help by fucking their holes while we strangle them!

Well, depends on what they AI overlords are like. Maybe we could have them be developed based on @Silwith's personality. Then they may rule us, but we fuck 'em long and hard.

shit, that is awesome! life will be good so long as it gets fucked and sated. would probably best then if we made @Silwith's brain it's cerebral cortex? altho i am sure that no matter what we may come up and think is a good idea it will come and blow up in our faces and bite us on the ass for not giving him enough sex

A AI overlord that likes to be dominated and used... Seems kinda ideal for Ai xP

Well, it's their fault for listening to old farts that don't get videogames as to only focus on money, instead of making something that has real value.

Yeah, same here. My backlog is so long, I can just keep buying 3-5 year old games at a 90% discount and I won't run out of interesting games.
My biggest problem is even finding the time to play anything.

Yeah...Sil's already horny all the time. What if the AI Sillords want us to keep going even if we're all drained dry?

Maybe a couple of safety measures that he'll hopefully not be able to override?

That sounds like the plot for a future porn game.

Hehe, hey Sil!
Well, it would certainly have its uses.

But in the end, the fuckboy overlords would probably create a dystopian society where people's merit is determined by how long and hard they can fuck the AI Overboys.
That could be potentially a little problematic.

 

[conzibald]

Well, it's their fault for listening to old farts that don't get videogames as to only focus on money, instead of making something that has real value.

i'd say it is not as simple as that since for the majority of people it is work for em or starve since they have such ludicrous amount of power and money plus they will easily go together and bar someone from getting a job just because they were not a good little drone. And in the west and usa specifically money and connections is what gets you your way. considering lobbying is something you can spend money on doing in the us to change laws to suit your need. that and they will spend alot of money just to make sure the public gets less for the main thing that has value for em is getting to do and get away with things we cannot get away with and will end up with jailtime or bankrupting fines.

Yo! NO!
what is your go to porn for wanking?
