Im happy that the games who are pushing the cutting edge aren't really games that have much longevity beyond their release. Where games that cater to the Steam Deck (and by extension, older gaming PCs) continue to be talked about for years and still getting sales and support.

Is that the fault of Vortex, or just the modding scene in general?

Using Vortex to install mods for Bethesda games was pretty straightforward. It auto installed extra tooling and even knew how to set the order of the mods.

Where Using Vortex to install mods for some unity games was kinda janky. Sometimes it just works. Sometimes it doesn't without extra configuration.

But then I tried it for Cyberpunk and it was just nuts. There was like a set of support tools I needed to make some mods work, and if I was using Mod B, I need version 2 of Mod A. And if I used Mod C, it needs to be above Mod B. Cryptic errors, as you said.

Still. Light years beyond a decade ago.

I can't wait until the Spiderman games go on sale. I vowed never to buy any open world game for more than $15, after being burned so often.

I got Horizon Zero Dawn for like $10. I was even surprised when RDR2 went on sale for under $15. So now I just have to wait.

Make plenty of save points! (Or do multiple playthroughs)

It's very fun to pick an answer, then load up a prior save a do another one.

One choice let's you skip a whole chunk of the game, which is hilarious

The Ys series.

There's so many of them that I had to figure out what they're about.

Just finished the first one and was surprised how good it was, in a very retro way. The second one seems to have me backtrack a lot, and maze like designs. Which I hope doesn't become the norm.

Sorry - I'm too old to understand. Is the controversy good or bad?

Like, how South Park would actively mock religions because they knew the news would give them more exposure?

As we watch Kanye, Asmongold, [random influencer] continues to say and encourage their fan base to believe in the most terrible shit...

Remember that if their actions start affecting too much of their pocketbook, they can just apologize. Oh, and pay PR shills to clean up their mess.

PewDiePie spent years putting that belief out in many different ways. What you saw in the news was just what was reported. There's no remorse. Just a "Well sorry that happened".

You're not misremembering.

He had a team scrub that off the internet and now a bunch of people have been gaslit.

PewDiePie's PR machine got you so good you're defending a multimillionaire for his BS.

He didn't really apologize at all. He brushed it off, moved on, and then everyone pretended like it didn't exist.

His PR machine worked hard to clean up his mess.

Imagine if JK Rowling's got quiet then two years later, came back and everyone gaslight you into saying they just went through a phase.

And yet, I'm the one getting heavily down voted.

Nah I'm saying you say racist shit, you don't get off the hook.

Pretty much. The whole "Internet is forever" doesn't mean shit if you can be a dick and then throw money to PR fix your reputation.

Yeah. Guy does a few Nazi things and anti-Semitic things a few years ago and he has to live with that reputation forever?

.

And come on, why are you living in the past? Just because Kanye straight off said some Nazi shit every few months? Dude, separate the art from the artist!

Oh, and Kevin Spacey did a bit of rape back then. But it was so long ago!

And while we're here, Bill Cosby drugged those girls in the 70s. Like my dude, who wasn't a little edgy back then?

It's really weird and kinda reddit-like to see a human rights violation and twist the story to be about some online community.

Maybe I need Cortana, Microsoft Excel, and OneDrive while I play Doom Eternal. You don't know me.

I too like to bully the neighbor and then yell at them for not buying anything from my yard sale.

I mean, now that the US has gutted so many departments that regulate food safety, totally understandable.

Oh you European nerds don't want to buy American?

Well guess what. Neither do we!

And we now get to pay an freaking fine for buying goods from outside of America.

Not just the Chinese. But Obama. And a side of DEI and woke.
