I was honestly disappointed that we saw nothing of the original razor girl narrative story and got this weird slice of nothing in particular. I feel like I know less about the world than I did before. While I disagree with the GTA reference (it seemed more substantial than GTA) I have to admit there was ultimately very little story substance and more a demonstration that this is a mashup of all the recent cyberpunk IPs from the past decade.

This prompted me to start trying out GoG Galaxy today. I will continue to use Steam's game support services when needed but I will try when possible to find alternatives to this company where available. I will attempt to find alternative storefronts for game purchases when possible. I no longer want to support this behavior through my purchases.

I recall their original argument was that there was a conflict of interest in that Epic was consulted on the creation of tools used to create PUBG and then used that inside information to create a similar game directly competing with Bluehole's. So maybe some kind of bad faith suit against Epic?

Be interesting to see how they come at them since all the other companies they went after were done using some form of digtal asset for comparison. Gonna be hard to suggest any assets in Fortnite are infringing considering Fortnite already contained the majority of it's assets within the co-op game.

Typical Valve. Choosing a stupid solution that is the laziest method to cave to demands.

Would have been simply easier to create a section in the marketplace for this stuff. Hell they constantly hide "violence" behind a clickwall even though they don't seem to employ people to manually do this. Lazy company that doesn't want to employ real people to do work.

My Dekker took a headshot injury every mission for the first 5 missions. Now I mostly let him stand around behind mountains and target lock enemies. He's ok but I don't really trust him enough to turn off the weapon safeties.

Yes it is. One of the best feeling shooters to ever be made. The thing that most people really feel when completing the game is that there isn't more.

The real beef I've seen with the game is that the PvP aspects of Destiny took a more front seat due to the fact that Destiny 1's most hardcore fans only stuck around for PvP. They didn't realize it was because everyone else left when we realized they forgot to add story and content leaving only PvP players behind.

Call me back when the walls are painted black and have thin yellow lines in a grid pattern.

This was the first Monkey game post Ron Gilbert so most of the senior guys stuck with LucasArts but I believe you can find some of their talent at Telltale Games. And of course Tim Schafer has DoubleFine but I don't really know if he was around after Grim Fandango.

Not every game needs to be about the progression loop. It's why people exist who play RPGs and LARP. Some games require you to put into the game to make it what you want.

I feel like this is a game that some people want to be other than it is. Maybe future events and content update will make it more to those tastes but for now it's gonna be a game where you make the fun via interaction with other people. The core game is focused around playing with friends or encountering other players randomly in the world. Most of the gameplay loop seems to focus on giving you more opportunities to individualize your pirate or ship. Character building is what you bring to it.

For me it's a chance to play a game where the stakes are only what I want them to be and the story is what I make of it. The tools to make that story more interesting are the only limit I've found.
