Yeah I don’t get why they would want to risk this. Go remake/demake some game by a company that won’t try and kick you in the nuts.

Listen I love NMS for what it has become, but of course they would say that. They know that (the veil of) personal investment in their userbase’s woes is good marketing. What would the answer otherwise be? “fuck your save, start over”?

And if they can’t fix it, they can at least say “we tried”.

There’s definitely some sketchy stuff going on, but in general, reviews are mostly an opinion. A lover of the original versus a hater of the original will probably not give the same score to this game. It really depends on the reviewers history, preferences, ability to investigate, empathize with other demographics / types of players, patience, endurance, willingness to forgive bad gameplay/graphics/story/music as long as the gameplay/graphics/story/music is good, etc.

I don’t talk to LLMs much, but I assure you I never mentioned cricket even once. I assumed it wouldn’t work on Copilot though, as Microsoft keeps “fixing” problems.

That’s fucking sick! I’m still grinding coupons to unlock all the pretty things, so until then my factories are still just foundations and walls and random looking nonsense.

I just connected stators, motors, and automated wiring to my storage (+ buffer overflow for awesome sink) so I was thinking it’s probably around time to start “decorating” my base.

It doesn’t add any functionality but I like my stuff to look cohesive. Your transport belt looks like a mountain trail path, really cool.

Idk what I expected

Plenty of folks buy the game for later or just forget about it. Almost 10% of Rocket League players never scored a goal. Same goes for changing one single aspect of your car.

In a way I don’t believe Nintendo was naive enough to rely on ‘pinky promise’. Nintendo makes you sign NDAs for getting information about unreleased games, going to events, and playing review copies. Usually not personally, but there’s a contract between Nintendo and the news / writing org.

So I’m pretty sure they did this with the foresight that people would start talking about it. How they can see that as a net positive I find hard to argue, but they get datamined on the regular and games are leaked a week before street date so they had to know.

Well, no Rock & Stone! for you then :P

I find it interesting but there might be no rhyme or reason to it - vibes often just work like that. Does the camera POV have an impact as well? Like first person vs third person vs isometric?

Unpopular, maybe. Controversial, I hope not. Your opinion and experiences are valid.

Can you pinpoint why it’s a turn off? I understand you’re saying you want to be outside, but is it from a feeling of being limited when you’re inside?

Flipping it: do you prefer playing games that are in the sky like Bioshock Infinite over Bioshock 1/2 that are underground (on the sea floor)?

Yeah it’s great. I can spot RPS headlines with ease considering how much obscurity they put in, in comparison. It can be someone’s cup of tea though. I like my headlines factual and conversational!

Now this is a headline!
