Starfield's already the top seller
I can't wait for the launch day bug compilations Either way, can't wait to pick up the game in two years at 30-40$ with all the dlc

I HATE “boomer shooter”
Boomer shooter isn't the worst genre name ever, in fact I think it fits the genre quite well. There are certainly a lot of things going boom in a typical boomer shooter, and the baby boomers are only one generation off of the "proper" generation, so it represents its age.
Certainly better than the -likes, do you guys really want the "doom-likes" term to resurface?

I don't like the ramping tribalism that's starting to go around, but escalating with more tribalism is definitely not the answer.
Being so defederate-happy would only doom this instance into an echo chamber, possibly even turning into the very thing they're accusing it of being now

What are your Favorite and Least favorite genre names?

Whoa calm down, While I was a bit harsh, I definitely didn't mean any hostilities you might have picked up from this.
Genre names are just names of the genres. They have no bearing on the actual quality of the games that they categorize. There are good games in poorly named genres and bad games in aptly named genres.
I was just sharing my thoughts on what the industry calls them and wondering what other people thought about them

Looks like CS2 will have mixed use zoning!
I thought CS2 was counter strike 2 and was very confused for 10 seconds

A battle in this WW2 MMO went on for over 2 months and killed 9 million players, so devs stepped in to end it early, only for "one last hurrah" to win it anyway

As a person who plays from time to time, it was more that the war was in a massive stalemate. It was on the secondary server, where less players are on than is required to push the front lines.

Games with good procedural generation?
Reply in thread
Same, though the base building is also one of the things that ties the procgen there together imo. Theres something just cool about being able to discover random player's bases organically by exploring, even if it is rare to actually find em in the quintillions of planets

Thanks for understanding, most arguments I see on the internet only escalate further, and I appreciate the calm discussion and the compliments
Looking back on your post history, I do see that people are being too harsh on you. It sucks that people immediately jump to the worst possible interpretation.
I hope that you don't get discouraged by these comments, and only look to the genuine discussions for ways of improvement

Outrage in India as government hikes taxes on online gaming to 28% | The Independent
Is this "online gaming" the one where the term was hijacked by gambling companies, or actual video games?

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach pre orders starting march 17th
Reply in thread
I'm gonna be that guy and say that death stranding isnt a walking simulator by definition, walking simulators as a genre are more like visual novels meanwhile death stranding id more call a hiking simulator about the logistics of going from A to B.
I'd say death stranding is more like euro truck simulator on foot than it is stanley parable.
Other than that pretty much my thoughts on the game.

Hands-on with Payday 3's expanded stealth heisting, in which everything goes wrong | PCGAMER
Reply in thread
Payday 3 seems to be abandoning most of the mechanics that 100% force loud like concealment so the horde shooter part is more likely to be the "plan B"
But of course public games will be public games, so unless you're playing with friends expect that some people will either just suck at stealth or just "didn't queue up razormind so that they could rob a bank quietly"

Welcome to Skyrim Mods! Let's get this party started! What are your favorite must have mods?
Yes, i’m sure - Among other things, makes it so that poisoning a weapon doesnt have an awkward “are you sure” popup for every single time you want to poison
TrueHud or any other hud that allows you to see enemy stamina and magicka, making picking elements to starve enemies of their energy a viable strategy without changing a thing
Elden parry (+ stuff to make it work on the latest version) - Might not mesh too well with skyrim’s combat, but damn if it isn’t just fun to stagger enemies
