There is absolutely precedent for these exact events. Pick the name of a famous dictator from history out of a hat and they most likely have acquired absolute power through “legal” means.

Yeah, I’m uninterested in buying any new controllers until they make a Steam Deck without the screen. I’m convinced no controller has ever been more comfortable or more versatile than the Steam Deck

If you’ve never played Super Space ________ and you’re looking for local split screen games I highly recommend it. It’s an amazing blend of competitive and cooperative design that’s always fun and chaotic. And it’s free! But it’s not on Steam since it’s a collegiate project. Link

From what I’ve heard of Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, that’s a very similar game but I haven’t tried it.

It better be a huge joke about how sequels purely capitalizing on the name of the franchise is a soul-sucking waste of time

Spoilers? Man I finished the game and I still have no idea what’s going on

Muppet Fifty Shades of Grey

“eeeeerrrrrMiss Piggy? I don’t make love. eeeerrrrrr I fuck. Hard. Mhm.”

Damn. Like the only remake I really want to see is Toy Story but with Pixar’s modern tech. Same voice acting, same soundtrack, but no more uncanny valley Sid.

Eternal is one of my favorite games of all time, and it has a massive leg up on this game. Firstly, it seemed like a complete surprise when it was announced. The gap between DOOM 3 and Eternal was like 16 years. It’s been 5 years since Eternal was announced, and 3 since it was released; I’m convinced passion projects are not released on timelines that coincide with shareholder expectations. Not to say Dark Ages can’t be good, but the second big red flag about this game is that now it’s owned by Microsoft and that’s it’s own can of worms.

There is absolutely nothing appealing about this to me. If I was at all interested in this 2 hour cutscene I’d just go watch a Fast and Furious movie for 10% of the price

I’d venture to say that ID has not yet released a bad DOOM game, however they did almost make Call of DOOM. Under Microsoft’s leadership I’d say they’re at risk of making the worst DOOM game ever, but we’ll have to wait and see

Inb4: all nostalgia hype, solid core gameplay, nothing new or groundbreaking, F2P multiplayer, battlepass grindfest. Bonus points if it’s an open world.

Microsoft has become all-too predictable and I have absolutely no faith that this game will be anything greater than Halo Infinite

They’re still putting work into the Witcher 3. They just recently released a deep modding tool along with in-depth tutorial videos for how to use it

I played the shit out of 2 as well. When 3 came along it had literally all of the improvements I wanted to see, and it felt so much better to boot, but the core gameplay had grown stale because of how much time I spent in the second

“We know everyone loves billionaires, so now there are a billion billion guns! And all the guns do over a billion damage!!” Idk why but I just get the sense they’ll make that kind of joke here

I have never seen Alien 3 or the 4th one whatever it was called, but I feel like I’m in the minority group that really enjoyed Prometheus and Covenant (could be because my head-canon is that the only canonical movie is the first) so I’m excited for this

In my mind the best action movies are the movies where the action shines the most and bad plot doesn’t get in the way. I haven’t seen John Wick which I’ve heard excels in this, but I gotta say I think Mad Max: Fury Road deserves high praise for being a great movie nearly all about raw action.

Furthermore, we are not in the “2000s” anymore, we’re in the 2020s. We are well into the third decade of this millennium. The 70s, 80s, and 90s do have commonalities in the action movies of each era and I feel like those probably exist for the 00s, 10s, and 20s as well though I can’t identify them yet.

If Fury Road is my favorite of the 10s, then maybe Prey is my favorite of the 20s, and Transformers is my favorite of the 00s.

I know everything I mentioned is part of an established franchise but I don’t care all that much. Good action movies can still be creative using established stakes and framing if they have good direction. All 3 of those movies definitely have that. I thoroughly enjoy and am excited by the action in those movies each time I watch them. Lackluster stories aside they are all awesome.

Yeah, hero based-shooters haven’t been good since that one with the dumb name that came out in 2007. What was it called again? Squad Castle 2 or something?

Wow… that sounds really bad for the economy
