There are great looking realistic style games coming out still, but whats happened is the rate of improvement has gotten slower and slower while costs have kept going up at the same rate. To be honest if AAA gaming stayed at the level of fidelity high end console games are at now if even where they were five years ago thats enough, but the problem is publishers and quite possibly the audience are locked into a mentality where these things need to just get better and better without ever stopping.

-If something is gonna send you to the Voodoo Boys, do this absolutely last. It leads to the DLC and that one is best experienced as one of the last few things before endgame.

"This is absolutely terrible. Permission to be human: to any executive reading this, friendly reminder that video games are an entertainment/cultural industry, and your business as a corporation is to take care of your artists/entertainers and help them create value for you.

Don't throw us into gold fever gambits, don't use us as strawmen for miscalculations/blind spots, don't make our work environments darwinist jungles. You say we make you proud when we make a good game. Make us proud when times are tough. We know you can, we seen it before.

In that case, Fate/Grand Order absolutely deserves to be on here more than DDLC, since you could call it the most popular VN of all time. :p

I also do think genre impact needs to matter, which it sounds like you disagree with me on.

And how many of those are from VN fans, the community I was talking about?

Like Steam vs. VNDB is exactly that: steam reviews from people who've never read anything like it and are blown away, VNDB reviews from people who know other things in its genre to compare it against.

I mean, it's not like it's that well regarded by western VN fans either. Ranked 4057 on vndb.

And that is something that probably can only be reversed by a more radical change,

I really don't think the reviews or refunds had anything to do with it. Someone there figured they could actually get in trouble for fraud or something and decided they had to let it go.

that pic gives off a very cynical vibe like "eh"

I hope its not ANOTHER deconstruction of Superman

what a weird choice for a first official photo

The Steam algo is specifically designed to allow review bombs without it affecting the overall score, as long as more recent reviews improve

Sony pulled back on requiring a PSN account for PC.

I've heard boomer shooter fans say it's fairly average for the genre. That might be more about the gameplay though

This is a game that I've been thinking about playing for a while, but I've never been sure if I would love it or hate it

If you have to write a giant fuckin post on Reddit about how well the rollout of your new update is going, chances are it isn't going very well

I was on PTO for the rollout so I was getting worried seeing some of the chatter but the data just doesn't tell the same story. We're definitely seeing some tickets for it right so some players are having a hard time and we're trying to help get those players going but overall it's going pretty well so far and I'm really looking forward to us writing the next update to talk about how effective it already is. We're seeing some good stuff at least so far.
