There’s just too much bad rep.
On the one hand, that’s not a bet I’d take since No Man’s Sky exists.
On the other hand, NMS is definitely the exception, not the rule.

FTA:
As in the first game, executions are key. When an enemy is staggered, you can run up and trigger a canned death animation—usually tearing them apart with your bare hands, or impaling them on their own claw-limbs—in order to recover your armour bar to block incoming hits.
They started putting games on PC, but their plan is to make sequels console-exclusive.
I provided a screenshot as an example. Obviously I’m not going to link to every fucking bigoted comment. Those were the top three comments; two of which were useful to my point.
Note that zero of these comments are complaining about diversity
Here, let me make one bigger for you:
They “think” adding more diversity in the form of inclusion and LGBT representation would make the game worse, since apparently that point wasn’t as clear as, say, a fucking foghorn.
Do you know what people are referring to when they use that word?
Yes. “Woke” means “anything that threatens my worldview of white masculine superiority and reminding me that non-white, non-straight, non-male people exist and should be represented in art hurts my fee-fees.”
But sure, explain how it’s really about “ethics in gaming journalism”.
It’s a coordinated effort to make those bigoted assholes seem to be a larger number than they actually are. And we can blame Steve Bannon for that.
I edited my comment, but I was wrong in that it’s not the review page that gets swarmed but the comments on announcements that Arrowhead makes. Anyone can comment on an announcement (which makes sense, if [for example] it’s about an upcoming feature that isn’t out yet.)
Sorry, you’re correct- it’s not the reviews, but the comments on any announcement made by the devs that I was remembering.
The lack of mouse icon next to their names means those Steam accounts don’t own the game.
The Helldivers 2 Steam review page (edit: it’s comments on announcements) is covered with reviews from accounts that don’t even own the game begging Arrowhead to “not add WOKENESS!” to the game.
Let’s face it: that trailer was just bad. We already knew MP4 was in the works; there was nothing that was shown for us to get excited for. No new enemies, no new suits, no new abilities, no new weapons. If I had to guess, I’d say the team was told to put something together for Nintendo Direct at the last minute, so they threw together footage from the intro level. It worries me that Nintendo wants to drive the hype from the existence of MP4, instead of the content of MP4.
I don’t know; I’ve not had any issues personally.
Good news!
Perfect Dark was remastered in 2010 and is part of the Rare Replay you can buy for the XBox. Exactly the same, but with HD graphics.
Oh, you don’t actually like ARPGs. So why are you complaining about them?
I guess the genre is just dead.
Diablo IV’s current season is pretty well regarded, from what I’ve read.
The Last Epoch is good.
Grim Dawn is fantastic.
And of course, Path of Exile is doing Path of Exile things.
What’s this “genre is dead” thing?
As one of those “older millennials” you referenced… What the fucking shit?
