In all honesty, it doesn't really matter to Capcom that much because the main purpose here is making money from miking the franchise and it's working just fine for them so far. It's the same fans that are criticising the games that are paying whatever that needs to be paid for the game. So, why would Capcom stop?

Are there aspects of gaming you initially did not really “get,” but later learned to appreciate? When I played MUDs, for example, I really didn’t get why anyone did quests. But in single player RPGs, I obviously learned to enjoy them.

I know, but considering how big a fan you seem, I was surprised that you hadn't posted any of their music. As far as the video goes, I just really like that particular song.

Yeah, from what I heard it was a bit too short. I think if they add dlc, extra game modes like versus, races,etc it could be even better. For what it offers now, it's a bit too small for my liking. But maybe they will add updates to include more options down the road.

Exactly this, thank you for clearing it up some. I knew it wasn't good for the environment, and with each new device it's becoming worse and worse. I think I remember hearing about how the PS5 is a powerhog. The more we advance into online gaming and streaming, is going to result in more problems I think.

How is everyone? Happy Monday!

I doubt GTA 6 will be a failure. It will still sell a ton like GTA V did. On top of that, I bet that GTA 6 will have a similar online mode but even more advanced and let's face it, that's what is going to be popular for them. The single player may be tamed down some to change with the times, but I feel like they can still make a great game.

@Withywarlock welcome to the team 🙂 main thing as you are part of the team to also enjoy yourself and not leet the pooped members get into your head 😛 then again I don't think you have to deal with any bad members here 😛

Nice, Doom is a great and solid FPS experience. The graphics are great, the game play is silky smooth, and the action is really over the top. I do not regret buying Doom one bit. However, my expectations for the single player were set pretty high thanks to the excellent Wolfenstein The New Order. Doom just doesn't live up that game's story and setting.

I think GT630 would serve better than a potato for this game, there could be a few downsides to it but as long as you can cope with a few game glitches and slow pace here and there then that GPU is fine. There is even a mobile version of this game you could try it out as well.

I trained a lot of monkeys shouting The Elder Scrolls V: memes

I wasn't the one holding the controller, but my best friend's boyfriend is a CoD fan. He started playing it when I was over one day, and it sent me spiraling back to when I was in the military. My time in was traumatic, and then a game like that left me screwed up for several days.

Stray is good no doubt but in my opinion, if they are looking at developing a new game with the same kind of puzzles and gameplay, maybe they should look at adding more content to it. Stray is quite short for what it's worth. A more complex one would be better.

Thanks for the kind words all, I hope do right by you and the forum. We must be as unsleeping in vigilance, swift in judgement, merciless in deed. - Warhammer 40,000 (OK, no need to be that hardline... I don't think? 😅)

Learning to experiment at a young age and "think outside the box". Some of the first games I played when I was 8-12 were things like Kings Quest and Maniac Mansion and games like it. Some of the point and click puzzles like that were hard and there was not any easy way to cheat or look for answers like every second of every game on YouTube now. Even Beavis and Buttheads Sega game required similar skills but dumb ways to do things like they would.

Honestly, have you considered some of what Newgrounds offers? They produced a ton of 2D shooters back in the day, some if I remember, were actually good and resulted in actual console ports. I think Alien Hominid or whatever it was, originally started on Newgrounds before it graced consoles. I think Hollow Knight qualifies, and I remember playing a bit of it. Was quite fun. There's also Broforce, Cuphead (if you want a challenge, I still haven't played it myself lol). Oh and if you want a classic, go with Smash TV on the NES. I'm sure you could emulate that no prob. 🙂

@Reality vs Adventure "I honestly couldn't find anything in a couple of news articles that gave any real insight to why he was resigning." Ok first, if you only looked at a couple of articles, you're not going to find anything. You need to put more research into it. "Does that mean I can't post something with a question?'" Of course not. You can ask questions all day. We encourage that. It's how you learn. "Does that mean that for every post, there should be an explanation instead of just a video?" Preferably, yes. But often the videos explain themselves. If a person can add context to their post along with the video, that's great. I personally have posted probably dozens of videos over the years. Many were self explanatory. Many more required added context so they came across clearly and understandable. "Or should every post be more than one sentence?" Yes, we would love that. One line posts too often add nothing to the conversation. On a rare occurrence, a single sentence can add much to the discussion at hand. But even if that one sentence is all that's needed, it would be preferable to add more if you can. "Based on this standard, my post in Stoicism vs cynicism recently should be removed or criticized." If you want it removed, we can do that. If you want criticism, and it seems that you would want negative criticism just to prove your point, we can certainly do that as well. "This topic has largely fell under the radar for some reason in the news." That has nothing to do with it. If it "falls under the radar" as you put it, then that typically wasn't anything most people have to say. It wasn't engaging to a point that people felt like answering. Many posts go way back in the boards, simply because people didn't feel like responding to. There are probably close to 100 of topics I have posted that got one or two replies, and maybe 50 views. It's the nature of the beast. "So when I came across it I decided to post a question. So when I do actually put a lot of thought into something, nobody really responds." Again, it's just the natural order. I read tons of posts every time I come in here. The majority I don't respond to. Most people will read a topic and not respond. They feel at that time they have nothing to add to the conversation. Which is a great call. Don't reply until you have something to add to the discussion. "There are far too many topics that are posted with just a question even currently, w/o their own input or opinions." True, but sometimes a single question is all that's needed. Just less than an hour ago, I posted a question in the Mobile board asking about Diablo Immortal. I didn't really give any input other than it being a franchise I really like, and something I get advertisements on my phone a lot. But I asked many questions about it, since I don't know anything about it. Asking legitimate questions is what we prefer to see in posts when someone is trying to learn or get opinions. "This standard should go for all across the board and not just me." This is just bullshit. The standard is for EVERYONE. We're not persecuting you with requirements and standards specifically aimed at you. This is a whiny "woe is me" comment. You're playing the victim here, and that's not something ANYONE wants to have to read. "I've actually posted a topic a year ago about all new posts should include their own opinions and not just a question and I remember being told that people can post what they want." People can post what they want. And the vast majority of posts actually DO contain opinions and/or questions. So I don't get what you are wanting here. "So maybe all new posts should have a rule that they have to express their personal opinion and not just a question." Why? If I post a YouTube video do I have to write up a review of it first? No. From what I've seen virtually every post on this forum as a whole, is either a question or opinion. If you can point me in the direction of a post that's not, I'll definitely look into it. All that said, complaining in the way you did was exhausting to respond to as there are so many points that needed individual responses to. I hope this is enough to answer all your grievances. If it doesn't you can always review the Rules & Guidelines.

If you wouldn't say much, then why the hell did you make a post to say so? This post adds absolutely nothing to the discussion. In fact, it detracts the conversation. You are continually making posts that say nothing and damage the conversation at hand, because then we have to step into the situation. Either quit making pointless posts like this one, or simply don't post. There is no competition here to see who can make the most posts. There are a good amount of members here who joined long after I did, yet they have made more posts than me, and I would say 95%-98% of them were well thought out. I don't care that they post more than I do. If I don't have something of value to add to a conversation, I don't post. You would do well to use the same logic. As I said, it's not a race or competition of any kind. And I know that @Shagger is sick of you doing this as well, as he has given you countless warnings. I see that in 10,336 posts you have acquired 340 points. That was done within the last few days. Have you ever thought about WHY? So consider this a FIRM warning.

British politics is not the binary two party system that's in America. There are multiple political parties which different ideologies that sit in different places scale of left and right. Boris Johnson is outgoing leader of the... I'd say middle (not extreme) right Conservative Party, but most of the scandals and controversies around his tenure have had very little to do with his politics. If we kept every other factor the same but instead Boris Johnson was the leader of the rival left wing Labor Party it wouldn't have made any difference. So for your sake please don't embarrass yourself by turning this into a "right wing" conspiracy because it really isn't. It's been a long line of I'd say relatively minor scandals, at least when compared to America. There's two that are significant. The first was "Partygate" when he and his ministers were hosting parties and other social gatherings during the pandemic when everyone else was in lockdown. This lead to confidence vote in June which Boris Johnson just barely survived. Then there's the latest one with the (now former of course) Chief Deputy Whip Chris Pincher. Before Pincher was appointed by Boris Johnson to this position he had been accused of sexual misconduct. I should state for the record I don't know if he was guilty but it doesn't matter. The issue that has now forced Johnson and the majority of his cabinet to resign is that when accusations where recently published in the tabloids Boris Johnson claimed that he didn't know about them, then a letter leaked out that proved that he did. He reportedly even made a joke about it once saying "Pincher by name, pincher by nature!". Personally I kinda liked Boris, even though I don't agree with his most of his politics. He's certainly a character, witty and charismatic. I thought "Partygate" was kinda petty and blown out of be proportion. I agree that he and his ministers should have been following the rules instead of chucking back pints in Number 10 but I know lots of people that didn't especially at Christmas and New Year. The latest one with Chris Pincher does bother me more, that's him just streight up lying to our faces and that's not acceptable.

What if I'm trying to save, and the weight becomes much on me, and we crumble together? it is a bit risky, but if I have the power, I'll save all three, adopting a technics that will make me act smart and quicker.

Fair point. Just can't stand some games with poor controls. Anyway, I guess a game that did kinda traumatize me, was probably one point in assassin's Creed 3 where you find one of your friends dead. It reminded me of a time my father and I found our neighbor dead, so it brought me back to that moment. Was uncomfortable but I got through the game. It was only one moment near the end of the game.
