I was gonna disagree, then I realized that the server is en/fr Canadian. So it’s perfectly appropriate. So… yeah, my bad. Maybe people just disagree with the opinion or something. The game is quite well reviewed and popular, afaik

Wrong community, I guess. Most people here don’t speak french

GTA/RDR? Shooter where you’re not pressured to do much, explore at your own pace, shooting but without the “stress” of doom or something similar. And no need for quick aiming or whatever. Pretty chill game to learn controls in, imo.

Glad to hear it :D

Abzu? Dave the diver, maybe? Dredge?

Or, this might be a might more out of left field or maybe completely stupid and not at all what you had in mind, but what about coral island? You don’t get to experience the water surface except when fishing or doing other stuff on the shore. But you get to do stuff on the bottom and there’s mermaids and stuff.

Stardew valley with a tropical island vibe. So definitely fun and immersive. Definitely more adjacent than something like sea of thieves or black flag or subnautica, but I feel like it fits better than just cause 3, imo

Awesome game, but I’d feel bad stopping so soon. I’d forget half the stuff by the time I got back to it, I feel

Move? It’s always been a migration with these games. That’s why they try to schedule their patches to not coincide with other similar games’ launches/patches.

But yes, very excited!

Right, but the fifa series afaik makes most of its money by selling packs of cards with players in them. Packs and players that you can get by just playing. But they still sell those packs for $$, so why wouldn’t it count? Afaik, that’s one of the main culprits besides counter strike that are named when talking about loot boxes

Borderlands the same, you can buy random gear with cash. I guess it’s less fomo and less abusive, but they’re still literal loot boxes that they sell for money

Borderlands, iirc

I’m here, so I’m more likely to know who that is or what he looks like. But I don’t. I do now because you mentioned him and I looked up how he looks like. Your average Joe is gonna be even less likely to know who that is or what he looks like. So I’m guessing that’s why. Some CEOs just avoid the spotlight. Or maybe I’ve just been avoiding MS news, dunno

I often use cheats to remove grindy and boring bits beyond a certain point. Usually the difficulty curve is pretty bad and a game is only hard or challenging in the beginning. So I play as intended until I reach a point at which it’s just a matter of time and not skill. So I just give myself a ton of crafting mats or currency or whatever so I can focus on the fun and interesting parts of the game.

Ah, I see. Fait enough. Personally I enjoyed it. No point in making a different game just to have better graphics. PoE 1 is still there for those that don’t like the new one… and I’m looking forward to alternating between the 2, if they manage to find the pace which they promised.

What makes the first 70 levels not fun for you?

This again? Anyway, sure… Tetris or doom for importance. Not really the best. That goes to rdr2 for being one of the best selling games of all time while also being almost universally loved by both critics and fans. Not my personal favourite game, but objectively speaking, the title should go to rdr2, I think

So left hand only games… driving games should work(enjoying NFS heat, atm), turn based games and isometric RPGs (plenty of those, depends on preferences… Balatro, slay the spire, XCOM, disco Elysium, etc… I could make a list if needed).

Telltale games like the wolf among us and stuff

Vampire survivors and all the similar games (halls of torment, brotato, soulstone survivors, etc)

Michael Mando aka Nacho Varga from better call Saul. Guy needs to be in more stuff. He’s fun to watch for sure.

Most if not all the content in that game is created by the players. Which they can then sell. And the company profits from it. And a big part of the playerbase is underage. 50% or so of players are sub13, afaik.

There’s still private servers out there. You can play wow without giving blizzard money.

The only problem is that people are idiots, especially online. Go to any comment section and you’ll find people angry at the content, no matter what the content is. And you’re taking them seriously, for some reason. Laugh at them and move on, no more polarization problem. As you’ve said, 77% of people enjoyed avowed. Probably even more, as people are a lot more likely to leave a bad review than a good one.
