@samuraicop i doubt THIS game deserves it but honestly some subject matters simply shouldn't be sold (rape, pedophilia) so I am glad the system exists, this just seems like a really weird game to have this happen to.
I think transparent earnings has been the coolest thing to come out of the last 10 years.
Its such a staggering level of sales that it's obviously hard to wrap your mind around BUT it definitely speaks to social trends and marketing power behind games.
@onex Gyro would definitely help! I just find it odd that they cant have good gyro AND analog (Splatoon does a decent job of both) in a game that has made so much.
But at the same time, the game is a huge success so maybe im just off my rocker? Simpler / more user friendly controls /aiming would of been nice.

@GamingFan4Lyf
As far as I understand it blockchain tech uses about 10-50 times more energy than internet browsing because of the constant high level calculations.
But right now we're using the equivalent of 70 coal power plants just powering the internet, people need to work on making it more efficient.

Absolutely ready for this. It is probably one of the best couch vs games, beating out Towerfall in sheer control.

Re: Smelter Blends Side-Scrolling Action With Top-Down Strategy, And It's Coming To Switch
@Bunkerneath You should look up Actraiser, its not a game trying too hard, it's trying something... old? Different?

Re: Disco Elysium: The Final Cut Is Refused Classification In Australia
@Darlinfan I agree with the first paragraph but there are game companies that dont.
We litterally had games with those things blocked from being sold, that's the use of it.
Negative impact and offends morality can mix, not everything offensive has a direct negative impact, but things that do (or could) should be banned.

Re: Want To Get Your Hands On This Gorgeous Charizard Statue, Pokémon Fans? Bad News, We're Afraid...
