Ubisoft hates Valve but they'll come crawling back someday.

They already did months ago

PraetorXyn posted...

They still might.

No, they won't. Activision admitted in court that "taking CoD off Steam was a failure". Literally anyone who has tried to leave Steam has failed spectacularly, and has come crawling back later to put their newer games on it. This includes Ubisoft, EA, Microsoft, Bethesda, and now Activision

Just want to highlight that Sony fanboys were crying that this wouldn't happen if Microsoft got the merger through.

They still are...

^See the third post. Apparently MS is gonna pull Activision games from Steam eventually even though Halo, Gears, Sea of Thieves etc have been on Steam for years

The only one I really want is Call of Duty Black Ops 4. Every other mainline CoD is on Steam, so it would be great to have the whole collection in one place

Was gonna say Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 remastered but I realized it's only on the Epic store, and not even on Blizzard's own PC app? Pretty bizarre. Would also like to see that hit Steam

The only other one I can think of is the Crash Team Racing remake, but that's not on PC at all as far as I know. For some reason they totally abandoned that game and never even patched it for 60fps for Series X or PS5. Would really like to play it at 60+ fps. Can't imagine what they were thinking releasing a racing game at 30fps in the year of our lord 2019

Not surprised, it's ridiculously hard to reach a high protein intake with just vegan foods. So you basically need supplements like this. And even then the protein ratio isn't as high as Whey protein

People will say tofu is a good replacement for chicken, but it's really not close. 100 calories of grilled chicken has about 20g protein. 100 calories of tofu only has about 10g protein. Literally half of the protein content is not a "good" replacement

I would love to at least try going vegan but as a weightlifter, I need to hit a certain amount of protein per day. And doing so with just vegan foods would be much, much harder to do than with animal products

There's nothing really "ambiguous" about it. They wouldn't have put in that short post-credits scene at the end if they didn't want the audience to think that he survived

When you couple that with this datamined cut content, it's obvious the developers' intention is for him to be alive:

Plus the fact that P5T will have DLC of him, and the game is confirmed to take place during/after graduation

Thats because Akechi is dead

Not if you max the Justice confidant and do the Royal ending

I also wonder if, since Sony didn't sign the contract, MS could get away with some sneaky stuff like releasing CoD a month later on PlayStation compared to Xbox?

hockeybub89 posted...

How is it not? The games aren't going to come to Sony and Nintendo forever.

Ten years basically IS forever in any tech industry. Traditional video game consoles might not even exist in ten years. Worrying about anything beyond that timeframe is silly

AceMos shits up every single topic that they post in. It was a great time when they were in purgatory for a looong time about a year or two ago. Idk why the mods haven't permanently banned them yet

I haven't used the ignore or block function on this website but I'd be lying if I said I never considered it for AceMos. They never add anything positive to a discussion. At least the typical trolls here are sometimes entertaining, but you can't say the same for AceMos. Just constant negativity and outrage

https://twitter.com/tomwarren/status/1679996860923097090?s=20

FTC was denied their request. MS can officially close the deal starting in about 5 hours

How long till we get those ABK games on game pass?

Ugh here I was just enjoying talking about my favorite game of all time. And then fucking AceMos had to come in and shit up the topic as always. Guess I'm out now

Makoto's confidant normally gets dunked on

And for good reason. It sucks bro, easily the worst one in the game

DarkBuster22904 posted...

The problem is that it's not fun to play. And while the story around it is thematically on point, form a gameplay perspective it's still miserable to sit through. It doesn't matter how "thematically correct" it is. It's a five to ten hour chunk of the game that's not fun.

The gameplay is fine there, it's only marginally worse than the other palaces and that's because of the boring robot enemies. People complain about the air vent maze, but no one complains about the rat mazes in the cruise palace which take even longer

I thought the second part of the bank palace was way more boring and tedious than any part of the space port palace. Interrogating overworked office employees was more interesting than doing algebra

Slayer_22 posted...

The palace has an interesting design and theme...I don't like the puzzle, but I had little issues with it on the 2nd go around.

I like the dungeon because it sticks out like a sore thumb, and it's supposed to

All the other palaces fit the theme of the game because they're places that thieves would rob: A castle, museum, bank, tomb, casino, and luxury ship

The space port is deliberately not a place that thieves would rob, because this is the point of the game where the Phantom Thieves lost themselves. They weren't "supposed" to be there

I think people who hate that palace just don't get the bigger picture It's perfect for what it is. Like yeah it's the odd palace out... just like it's supposed to be

Makotos hair is great.

Lol

BurmesePenguin posted...

She wont even hang out with you if she thinks youre not intelligent enough.

She also requires 5 charm to even continue her stupid social link with that girl Eiko. If you don't have it she says Joker looks "disheveled". Big talk coming from a girl with the dumbest fucking hairdo in the game

Doe posted...

Tropes are lame

Complaining about tropes in your anime game is like complaining about salt in your fast food

Yusuke is supposed to stay the poor art kid. It's an anime gag. Don't take it too seriously

Also, Haru is hilarious in P5 Strikers

Here is a picture of baby Haru from the anime

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/2/1/AAPMSAAAEqE5.jpg

Don't hate the floof

Haru is awesome. She's the only one who gets visibly upset when Joker rejects her. Imagine her and Joker running a coffee shop together when they're older. So adorable. You can literally make the argument that she's the "canon" waifu

They made her a brunette with a big butt, yet she's still the worst girl in the game. That's actually pretty impressive

Why would they bother with porting all their great games stuck on the PS3 (and earlier) to their modern platform? They would rather just stick them on streaming, and then keep crying about "losing" Call of Duty

Microsoft's CoD "exclusivity" deal back in the 360 days only gave them access to map packs about a month before PS3 got them

Meanwhile Sony's exclusivity deal locked ENTIRE GAME MODES to PlayStation platforms for a WHOLE YEAR. The competition didn't even get to play the full game until the next year's CoD was already out!

"These are the same." - hockeybub89

I wonder if this will make Sony think twice about releasing its games on Steam? Hopefully not. I rather enjoy not having to own any PlayStation consoles

Sweet, now when do we get Activision's games added to game pass?

Except video games are a luxury/entertainment product, and exclusive games are an extremely small subset of that industry. If you really didn't like exclusives, it's still very easy to get your video game fix without supporting them

But yeah this hockey dude definitely took a page out of the MrMegaPhoenix playbook. Pretend to be "impartial" yet excuse Sony for everything they do while dogging the competition. You're not fooling anyone lol

PraetorXyn posted...

No space required, I use Steam.

Then just lol at you arguing about the concept of "ownership". This coming from someone who has over 3000 Steam games

Collat posted...

Clearly you don't.

Why do you say that?

PraetorXyn posted...

Those are likewise a waste of money.

Agree to disagree (well, about NSO anyway. PS+ is a bad deal imo)

PraetorXyn posted...

Stiw the condescension. Thats how Netflix stays in business. Its such a small amount of money each month you dont really notice, even if you dont watch anything in there for a few months. Then the year is over and you realize youve paid them $240.

Again, if someone is this oblivious to their own finances then yes, entertainment product subscriptions are not a good idea. For the rest of us, it's a case-by-case basis

PraetorXyn posted...

GamePass also isnt sustainable in its current form

Completely irrelevant to consumers. If it stops being a good deal, we'll quit paying. Until then, as long as consumers benefit, I couldn't give two shits how much money it costs MS

PraetorXyn posted...

You can rent your games all you like if you want. Id rather own mine even at double the price, but I dont pay double the price.

Personal preference. Enjoy your wall of games, I used to be right there with ya. I'll enjoy the extra space

Collat posted...

Yeah. I have it.

Monopolies are still bad.

Agreed. And glad all the government agencies worldwide agree that MS getting ABK wouldn't be a monopoly (except the dumbass CMA lmao)

PraetorXyn posted...

GamePass, like most subscriptions, is a suckers bet that tricks you into spending more than you need to because you forget to cancel it when youre not using it. Automatic $180 a year, when I can get the games I want during sales for less than that, and on the platform I want instead of my achievements being on Microsofts shitty platform which I dont care about.

I mean, you can say the same thing about PS+ or NSO. I don't know why you're singling out game pass

Someone stupid enough to forget that they're paying for something probably isn't smart enough to deal hunt either, and pays $70 for Madden every year. So that's not a good comparison. You can hunt for game pass deals too - I just re-upped mine for 37 months and paid ~$120

Most entertainment product subscriptions are probably bad deals for consumers who have a room temperature IQ. For the rest of us, game pass is one of the best and most inclusive deals in gaming. That's why any non-fanboy should support the deal and more games coming to game pass

Collat posted...

I play on PC more than anything, so no, I don't simp to either company.

That makes no sense. You know game pass is on PC too, right?

hockeybub89 posted...

I'm literally upgrading my PC for Starfield. I'll spend the money to play the games I want. You're just some biased fanboy. Can't even bring yourself to criticize Microsoft.

I've literally criticized Microsoft in posts of mine that you quoted here. And I probably own more non-Xbox games than you'd ever know what to do with lol. Don't be so emotional

ProfessorKukui posted...

unironic sigless user logic

You can tell someone uses this website too much when they post dumb shit like this

Tyranthraxus posted...

lmao what?

Ori is on Nintendo
Cuphead is on Nintendo and PlayStation
Minecraft is on literally everything

How many games did Sony release on XBox?

I think I can answer that

One: MLB The Show

And they only did it because otherwise they would have lost the MLB license

Collat posted...

How do those boots taste?

Why would you not want all of Activision's games on game pass? Because of loyalty to a different megacorp?

hockeybub89 posted...

I couldn't give less of a shit what you think.

Why so emotional? It's just video games

*looks at sig*

Oh yeah, now we know why you're emotional lol. Cope

Sandalorn posted...

I love how this was just ignored so the Sony Fanboys could simply continue their "Everything Sony does is fine but Microsoft doing the same thing is going to destroy gaming" bullshit.

Yeah basically lol. The guy was literally just like "oh my bad well at least it's kinda close". Like do you not even do a quick google search before you start spouting off things that are factually incorrect?

I guess it's feelings over facts for Sony fans

hockeybub89 posted...

Microsoft was kicking Sony's ass for years

How disingenuous. "Years" as in like, literally two years. Out of what, 20+?

hockeybub89 posted...

I'm not saying studio purchases are good

It's funny how you say this, and then do mental gymnastics to excuse all of Sony's purchases, as if that makes it okay or makes the end result for consumers any different

CrimsonGear80 posted...

and if you were in charge of Sony, would you NOT want to do that?

Of course I would. But we are having a conversation in the context of why any reasonable market regulator would allow this deal and why consumers should support it, not what I would do if I was an executive of a hundred billion dollar electronic company. Are you not keeping up with the conversation?

CrimsonGear80 posted...

MS still spent money to buy exclusives and timed exclusives. Dead Rising, Blue Dragon, lost Odyssey, GTAIV DLC...remember those? nevermind the COD deal they had before AB went to Sony.

And why do you think they did that? What was Sony doing 10+ years prior?

CrimsonGear80 posted...

Their badly-designed console is not Sony's fault. Neither are consumers choosing to buy other consoles since they found they offered something better than an Xbox did.

Who said it was? That comment was referring to someone who literally said that Microsoft was at the "top of the world" during a generation in which they finished last and had hardware problems which cost them billions. I wasn't even talking to you, so idk why you inserted yourself into the conversation and misconstrued the context of my post. Do you even know how to interact with people?

Tyranthraxus posted...

Sweeney owns sole majority. Tencent can't do shit. They could maybe threaten to sell which would temporarily devalue Sweeney's holdings but I don't think he cares because Sweeney doesn't want to sell any of his stake at all.

Without that Tencent money, the exclusives would grind to a halt. They've already slowed down severely over the past couple years. And the freebies have been almost all repeats and/or shovelware lately

hockeybub89 posted...

So they're pretty much equal, so I was off, but again, proof that both are bad and have been at this dick measuring contest for decades.

Microsoft was on top of the world in the 360 days and is one of the biggest companies in the world. You're not going to convince me they are still "playing catch up".

MS bought studios to get a foothold in the industry (at the time), and now buys them to catch up to Sony. Sony does so to try and maintain their position as market leader. These are not the same thing no matter how you try to argue it

Microsoft was not "on top of the world" during the 360 days, at least not in the gaming world. Once the Wii released, they were literally never in first place. They finished that generation in last. This is not even addressing the red ring of death and e74 errors that plagued the console during its lifespan and cost Microsoft billions of dollars

Please get a clue

Masked-One posted...

Epic is honestly worse than MS, they even take previously released games off of Steam after buying them. And buying a fucking anti-cheat software just to prevent it from becoming compatible with a rival platform is unreal. Greedy POS company.

Epic is probably the worst company in gaming right now. Cannot wait until big daddy Tentent pulls the plug on their bullshit storefront that keeps bleeding money year after year
