I'm sorry, but what does that even mean? There was no opinion of yourself expressed, not real point made and you didn't even address what was raised raised in the post you quoted... ...that even in itself was kind of a bland, soulless statement that didn't really address the subject matter. Honestly, just because a new post is made, you aren't obliged to to reply with anything just so long as it's something. We value active members, but we also value quality posts. If you can't think of anything worthwhile, then it's fine and perfectly worthwhile not post anything.

E-sports and Play-To-Earn games are very different. Play-to-Earn is, at best, a grind to earn a pittance. E-Sports are professional sports that only years of training and a high level of talent will give you even half a chance at success. 99% of people who play golf would get eaten alive if they tried it as a profession, as is the case in any sport. E-Sports is no different. You need credibility, sponsors, to have proven that you can be competitive at the top level. Yes, there are people who make a good living in E-Sports, but it takes so much more than liking games. Unless you have some credentials that we don't know about as a competitive gamer, then I'm sorry, but this just isn't something that's a realistic pursuit. Tens of, maybe even hundreds of millions of people play video games, and the amount of people that make a steady living out of playing them number maybe in the thousands at the most. I'm not trying to bust your bubble, you just need to be aware.

You are exactly what these people want, and that is a bad thing. Don't be conned into this.

Having had a look at what @Head_Hunter was talking about, I am not the least bit happy to have it shared VGR. I won't go into details, but let's say my spider tingled big time with it. Be careful, out there.

If you wish to continue this on PM and share those links, I won't object, but honestly @Boblee, I advice caution. If @Head_Hunter by his own admission thinks "It will look off", that stands to reason there very well could be something "off" about it. This is 100% optional, but as our member's safety online is priority one for me, I'd like @Head_Hunter to share this information with me first through PM just so I can verify it myself first.

Sorry about the long wait for a reply. I originally created this thread and the threads on Free Games with Epic and Xbox Live Games with Gold as a place to discuss what was available on these services without people creating multiple threads on these games over and over in the "deals" sub-forum. That is why they were placed here. Since then, the forum has been restructured slightly, making the "platforms" sub-forum more prominant and noticeable. Whether one will be more likely to look for these threads in the "platforms" sub-forum or here in "video game deals" will depend entirely on the person in question. Some may first look in one place, some the other. However, the problem with moving these threads to the appropriate "platforms" sub-forum for me is that it's likely story that people want to check in on two or possibly all three of these threads on a single whim, and it would be very inconvenient for them to move in then out of multiple sub-forms to switch between them. By all means, though, if you feel this service would be improved by relocating the threads, then please create a thread on Questions and Suggestions and I'll certainly consider it if the idea garners enough support.

Honestly, why is this conversation still going? The very simple question asked in the original post has long since been answered and is being kept going by loop of discussion that has nothing to do with the subject. And now we're even looping right back round to people answering he original question again, like @Boblee; This on page one; And this just a few minutes before this post This thread has turned into a mess of the same handful of people posting something for the sake of posting anything, and I think enough is enough. Locked.

Spam or not, posts that only exist for the purpose of promotion are not permitted on VGR, so you posts have been removed. This is clearly spelled out our Forum Rules and Guidelines. This is a gaming forum and community, it is not a billboard for you to e-beg on. On a personal not, your sap story and excuse do not fly with me for four reasons. This was first time posting here, so you clearly have no intention on actually contributing to the community. To you, we only exist to give you money. Nobody just joins joins an internet forum then immediately begs for money. Nothing you posted is in any way relevant to the threads you posted. You choose them because they were current, popular threads. You couldn't care less about engaging with us. If what said about your friend is true, there are better things you can do for them than e-begging on an internet forum. That's just not the way people support thier fiends in need if they are in these kind of situations. Not that I actually believe you, because I don't. You copied and pasted this post then posted not once, but twice. That, again, is not normal. You posted twice to draw maximum attention to it. That is spamming. Suffice to say, do not do this again. If you're only interested in people donating to that crowdfund you tried to post, then it's probably best if you don't come back. @Heatman Don't engage with these posts, report them.

I have been playing video games for 30 years, and I can never think of a time where I forgot what platform I was playing a game on, especially recently. In fact, I am fairly confident I would remember, for the most part, what platform I played any memorable game on. Sorry , but something is off here. Even on modern platforms I'd know if I was playing on Xbox, PC, PlayStation and certainly on switch. I feel a lot of your posts are a bit off. For a start, both the PC and Switch planforms use very different control prompts and default icons that it is impossible to make that kind of mistake. You literally can not play an Nintendo Game nor or PC game with PlayStation button prompts and icons and not recognise that there is some sort of problem unless you are blind. PC games use XBox control icons as defaults, a format Nintendo copied. There is no way in my mind you could have made that mistake. Also, nobody refers to PC gaming as "Microsoft Windows PC". Gamers say "PC", because "PC" games can be played on Linux or MacOS. So, what is going on?

That one I'll sustain. The game is on Switch and PC only. Seriously @Head_Hunter, there is something very odd with a lot of your posts. What you have posted simply can't be true.

The game is playable through PS Now on PS4.

I'm gonna have to disagree with you there. Launch titles for the PS3 included the likes of Killzone: Shadow Fall and Genji: Days of Blade, games that would look great even as late PS3 games.

It will be just the next FIFA, so inevitably and just like the rest, the best you can hope is for it to be no more terrible than the previous, which is the the likely truth because it will literally be the same game with some features added in back in that were previously removed so they could add them back in a "new features". I'm honestly certain that FIFA fans are at least slightly deluded. Why on earth anyone can look at FIFA with hope and excitement is baffling. Why can't you see it's dreadful, lazily put together con? The only purpose FIFA serves is to bleed money from a fanbase that clearly does not know any better. With all due respect @Head_Hunter, you and others who share your view on this scheme some people wrongfully call a video game game are the problem. You seriously get exited over the same buggy, rubbish mess of a game year after year just for an updated team roster? Why don't you demand better? Why, for example, can't EA simply update team rosters through patching? I'll tell you why, because EA know that the fools who buy this garbage will just take this abuse year after and buy the same game at full price or more every damb year without question. They're not laughing all the way to bank, they're laughing at YOU all the way to bank. I don't mean to be harsh, but you seriously need to wake up.

So sorry to hear that. Best wishes to her. We're all hear for you if you need us.

Apparently, that seems to b the case. Because they used facial capture on the actors, I assumed that, at least structurally, the face would be based on Ashley as well, but obviously not. Strange, and maybe it's just me, I don't feel Hannah actually looks that much like Aloy, so I would never have guessed

Well, the first thing I will point out is that woman is NOT the actress who plays Aloy. The real actress is Ashley Burch. I suppose it is possible that that woman did the voice over in some other language, but It's hard to tell. As for @kingpotato's original post, mastering this game, especially on ultra hard, it's all about using not just the right weapons and armour for the given situation. but also using the best weapons, armour and strategy's to compliment your own play style.

Welcome to VGR. Glad to know that people are talking about our community to others.

I like the look of this thing. Thinking it might suit me as someone who uses a gaming laptop.

Welcome to VGR.

I'm not exactly sure why what I would have to say on this subject would be more interesting or relevant, but I'll chime in. The notable difference between extremism and free speech is how it impacts other people. It is no longer your right to express something when that impedes on the rights or safety of somebody else. So, if a website is hosting something that's meant to spread hate, then that is not free speech. Saying "I hate insert" is free speech. You don't have to like it or agree it, but that is free speech. Saying "this is why you should hate insert" is more questionable, and defiantly over line to say "should be violent towards insert". Such conversations online are no different to such conversations in real life.

What gives you the right to decide whether those names are offensive or not when you are (clearly) not a Native American?

But that's not really about how the game looks. The goal is make Messi look like Messi, and to make Wayne Rooney look an ogre. It's about accuracy, not style. The looks in a game like FIFA is not a creative endeavour.

Why are we bringing FIFA into this discussion? The game is a sports simulation, it's graphics are meant to mimic something that's real, there is literally no creative design or style involved.

I'm sorry, but your query can't be fully answered on VGR without someone posting links to pirated software. Discussion on emulsion is fine on VGR, but we can't allow talk of downloading games illicitly. There are already threads on emulsion and abandonware, and many old games can be still be played on legitimate platforms, so I'm locking this thread.

A slave is someone robbed of thier own free will, so a fetus and even a baby up until a certain age lacks the ability to enforce, develop and express such a will and are totally dependence on others for care and survival, so I don't feel that child under a certain age can really be enslaved under my definition. So, with all due respect @Jayson, you're being ridiculous. Even when a child is old enough to have thier own will than can be taken from them comparing a parent's discipline and guidance to slavery is a stretch to say the least. That's not denying someone thier right of will and independent thought.
