@PessitheMystic this comment seems to make a lot of assumptions. While her comment on PTSD does seem a bit more metaphorical than literal, or even a bit poorly worded, there’s nothing wrong with treasuring a piece of artistic work you’ve been a part of.

It’s also important that we, players, fans, consumers make our voices heard. Just look at something like the Resident evil games english localizations - constantly changing to avoid union actors, to save a few bucks, even if it affects the final product negatively in terms of continuity and perception for those that care about it the most.

Re: Tencent Becomes 'Dying Light' Developer Techland's Majority Shareholder

@Dj64Mk7 At this early point, Tencent investments are more about long term influenced ownership, and not so much about short term changes in how companies function.
Also to increase their own bottom line. If they own a bit of everything, they'll get a piece of every pie that is baked.

I'm not a fan of them, as much as I wish Saudi-Arabia didn't own a big part of Nintendo.

Great games. Having said that, it seems that Ubisoft overestimated the appeal of a strategy game in console.

Personally, I know some normies who bought the first game and were surprised and disappointed it wasn’t a platformer.
You could say they should’ve looked at the back of the box, but really, that’s not always how a lot of casuals do think. They see Mario.

That’s how the low effort Mario sports game sell 3+ million units. Name.
