I went to private school for a few years, grew up in a relatively well off suburb, had parents with ok jobs and despite all that I ended up a burnt out, slouchy, metalhead scraping by at best in one of the worst neighborhoods in this city. Isn't it funny how things turn out?

Shame SBAllen and his cronies decided to sit on their asses and do fuck all while the rest of the world progressed around them and made them and this site almost completely irrelevant

I mean how long did it take them to implement things that were basic features on almost every other forum like quoting? I remember using italics and GameFOX to do that for years

It's not surprising things ended up this way, just sad

yea, too bad TLoU2 didn't have any dead mystics to pull the player in a purgatorial state to reflect on the consequences of their actions

nevermind that both stories were aiming for different things about the ramifications of violence, though...
Except the narrative of TLoU2 doesn't work or make any sense under even the slightest magnifying glass. Spec Ops: The Line did this kind of narrative better without trying to paint itself as some kind of huge leap forward for narrative in gaming

I saw something about TLoU2's crunch time, but I also saw something about the company's management trying to limit hours developers worked so they wouldn't be there for an extended amount of time, so idk if they were pressured, coerced, forced, etc. to work all of that extra time.
Yes, read up on the stories of the insane crunch he put his employees through and how for a time they literally had to hire movie CGI animators because nobody experienced in game development animation wanted to work under the insane levels of crunch at Naughty Dog

Single player stealth games don't sell. Dishonored, Deus ex, MGS5 all under performed

Not an established franchise

Asian main character

Horror, Sci fi, magic and stealth are all niche and you have to like all 4 to like the game Graphically ugly and behind the times

Terrible marketing campaign

Basically it had 0 mainstream appeal whatsoever
God this is such weak bait, all of those underperformed not because they were stealth but for a myriad of reasons

It failed because Bethesda slapped on the name Prey to keep the IP under their copyright library despite it having nothing to do with that IP and then didn't market is like at all.

This shirt is by Combat Noise from Cuba because of embargoes they can't send it to me directly and I'm waiting for their maim dude to visit his family in Miami around December and then I'll wire him the money and he'll mail it to me from there.

I go in grab my drinks then come out to see 2 Jefferson Parish cops roughing him up and then threaten to crack his skull on the concrete after roughing him up some more, throwing cuffs on him aggressively, and dragging him to a squad car over by a pump

Worse was I couldn't move because one of the cops was parked behind me and I had to sit and watch all that unfold, it was so surreal yo

It's entirely on the head of SBAllen and his cronies for letting things get to this point. When this site was lacking basic message board functions like fucking internal quoting for years they sat on their asses and did nothing until it was way too late, when YT reviews and walkthroughs started taking more of our traffic, they sat on their asses and did nothing, when Reddit exploded with popularity taking even more site traffic they sat on their asses and did nothing, the list goes on and on.
