Not really.

It’s mediocre and lazy.

Fact.

The swordplay is neutered because doing what they had in the tech demo was ‘too hard’ for obsidian.

Fact.

The story is forgettable, along with pretty much everything else about the game.

Opinion, but this is what people are agreeing with me on so...

The MGS games are classics. Rising just rode their coattails and had memers at the helm.

Fact.

You're just upset because I dared to be critical of something you and the bandwagon enjoy.

Fact.

Not every game needs to be open world, require 200 hours, or be live service.

Right. And all of the MGS games that don't have these are better than rising.

It's not fantastic. It's mediocre and lazy. The swordplay is neutered because doing what they had in the tech demo was 'too hard' for obsidian. The story is forgettable, along with pretty much everything else about the game.

I'm the exact opposite of a philistine, which is why I'm not afraid to be critical of garbage like this.

It was overhyped and underdelivered. Unfortunately, the snowball effect has taken hold so those who cannot think for themselves will never realize it.

Even before the war, the US would give ~$8bn annually to Israel.

Not lend. Give.

Israel is an albatross around the neck of the western world. We need to drop them like a bad habit.

That's nice, but even the views reflect my opinion.

It doesn't need to be a GDQ event.

I answered the person who asked why.

It's no different than watching a regular stream.

You don't need to spend that much to get a vulkan-capable GPU.

I stopped buying consoles when they started charging for online.

Feels like I made the right decision.

It's yall's fault for using windows.

Linux is literally available for free.

No problem.

I'm not sure about Super Mario Maker, but there is online functionality built-in to Yuzu.

It 100% sounds like their flavor of bullshit.

Remember the "emulation console" they released?

Heck, piracy is almost always morally correct because developers are only doing the least while charging the most.

If they want to treat business as "us vs. them", then that's what they're going to get.

Copyright and patent laws need to die.

Glad I still have my solid copy of Yuzu.

Never buying another console again, and it's been years since I bought a video game.

The companies only have themselves to blame.

You mean $400.

Me using a gaming laptop, a solution which has been available for over a decade.

Keep in mind everyone, nintendo started out as a toy company and never lost that culture.

They aren't your friends and they aren't "better than the rest."

Glad I never bought a switch.

In fact, ever since the PS4 I've been strictly a PC gamer.

Seeing how Microsoft was able to lower everyone's standards by charging for online really puts things into perspective for me.

It's great because now I don't have to buy hardware or software. Looking forward to emulating switch 2 games before they're even released like ToTK, lol.
