How did we get to the point that we have to pay to test thier games, thats all early access is.
Didnt gaming companies use to have to hire people to test during "alpha" then during beta they would ask the followers of the ga…

The more they automate shit, the lower the price I expect from them.
Sorry, but 'automation with less actual human development' isn't impressive to me. I'm not keen on the idea of paying for literal non-effort.

Lol, the masses. This has been known for years. You are not going to do anything but continue to give them all your stuff. Your only purpose is to live and die by their hand.

It seems like game play is not the problem with this game. It is just they monetize it like a mobile phone game. They made enough money to make part 2, so clearly it is working for them.
Not sure why anyone thinks that will change in part 2. …

Maybe a new take? Most of the people who buy games today (whether it is a MMO game or not) are not MMO players (loosely, people who want to play MMOs, and want to stick with a game for more than several months).
The majority of these players a…
Uh, so I made a character, and when I started the game, the appearance still was just the default white haired girl/guy. Do you get to make it look like the character you created later, or is that a pay feature?
How is anyone getting "angry" now when they have been following this game for this long? Even the Dalai Lama would lose his patience if he had to be reincarnated before this game was done.
For No Man's Sky, you are both right. One of you is looking at the short-term, and the other the long-term.
In the short-term, they "redeemed" themselves and the players who seemingly took a loss got a good game. Yay. Rare.
In the long-…

Could any of these work?
The higher gear you have, the bigger an aura you have so that:
1. You are randomly attacked by "Greedy" NPCs that want to "steal" your stuff
OR
2. You drop stuff if you die. Not your stuff, just stuff, b…
This is one of the last moves left for this game; just start selling stuff for outrageous amounts of money.
Although I applaud the last owner for this move, he is thinking too small for the situation. If someone were willing to spend 7,000 for…
Que? I could have sworn this game only recently relaunched, how is it in season 3 already? I don't know what they are, but these "season passes" in general sound like bull****.
Do none of you have jobs? I am a consultant, and all of my clients have cut back work because of COVID-19.
When you are on an ambitious schedule like they are, any little thing will set them back. Something like COVID-19 where people are call…
