Stop complaining. Play it if you want, don't if you don't want to. People just like to be popular and liked. Everyone bandwagoned on Baldurs Gate being good but I can't think of a type of game I hate more than that. Now everyone is bandwagoning on this because A- they don't have an Xbox or a PC, or B- they want to be cool and alternative.

I mean come on, last week everyone was saying "omg Baldurs Gate has no microtransactions! Roleplaying! GOTY!" And now with Xbox/Bethesda making a game just like that, you guys instantly roast it for being......a Bethesda game.

I think the microtransactions praise was more are, non predatory marketing / extracting every last cent praise. Didn't Stanfield have a premium cost to pay a week earlier or something? Is that not a similar concept, albeit nowhere near as shit as microtransactions.

Are we not all tired of being wrung out for our cash? What's so wrong with just charging what you need so that you can make a game.

I have zero issue with people saying a boring game is boring.

I have 100% issues with people making the most unintelligible takes on any game though.

Within a week of release I’ve heard about Starfield because of Pronouns and not being able to land on gas giants.

I am convinced, now more than ever, that XTwitter is worse than lead poisoning.
