XxEvil AshxX replied to Remarkableriots's topic in The Spawn Point
I was just wondering the same thing. -
I read it. What I am saying is that the small guys are already used to selling their games at sub-$60 prices. "Stagnant" prices are not going to hurt them. Big companies, however, won't be fine due to their CEO's bloated salaries. If these companies were really hurting that bad, it's weird that they can manage to save so much money for themselves. Upping the price of games isn't going to make the developers under them any more secure, it's just going to make the CEO's more money. I get what you're saying, that a $20 game from a small dev can now be a $30 game, making the developer more money while still being that much cheaper than the AAA titles. But they can already sell their game at $30. If it's a game worth buying, people will buy it. Look at Stardew Valley. He could sell it for $30 and it will still sell just fine because it's a great game with great support. But because he's a small operation, he can afford to keep it at $20 or whatever and still make some serious bank. It's not our fault the big publishers can't satisfy their greedy ass CEO's and shareholders.

Bobby Kotick made $30 million last year, while laying off developers. The only thing making their business unsustainable is them. Smaller devs are already used to making ends meet. And the indies usually sell their games for less than $60 already. The only ones pushing for this are the AAA publishers.

Movies Shudders 61 Days Of Horror
XxEvil AshxX replied to SimpleG's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
I've been on Shudder for a few weeks. I signed up for a 7 day trial to watch The Shining for a project, only to realize Google lied to me and it didn't have it. But then I saw Joe Bob Briggs and his his Last Drive-In show and he was my late-night horror host all through my teens, so I was sold. Watching him has been a blast, and I'm really glad they haven't censored him because he feels like he's straight out of the 90's and I love it. -
The only thing that bothers me about the idea of the anthology horror using the same actors like AMH is that after a while, AMH tried bringing back previous characters, who were also played by current season actors, and it got really confusing and pretty stupid. Hopefully this one will bring entirely different characters and stories without tying into a "connected universe" and relying on old 'remember this person?' gimmicks.

I don't think anybody's at the event. Seriously though, as long as they show Ratchet and Clank, I'm good. That's literally the only thing from the Sony show that intrigued me anyway. -
General Gaming Should I play Greedfall or Persona 5 next?
XxEvil AshxX replied to Best's topic in The Spawn Point
I just finished Greedfall. If you like games like Dragon Age with tons of conversation and tough choices with not great combat, then its worth a look. It does drag on a bit long, especially when you're trying to do all the side quests and companion quests. Graphics and voice acting are pretty good, but the game is grim with literally no humor or levity to break it up, and most of the characters outside of your party are pretty awful human beings. I recommend playing it when you're prepared to hate the human race. -

General Gaming Update: RIP in Peace, Marvel's Avengers
XxEvil AshxX replied to Commissar SFLUFAN's topic in The Spawn Point
I don't get it. Thor set his hammer down on Steve's monument and walked away? Why would he do that? Avengers might be disbanded, but he doesn't have to stop being Thor. Hell, he doesn't have to stay on Earth. Granted, it's not like anybody's gonna run off with it, but still.- 541 replies

New Strategy: Release the Xbox One version running in Potato Mode so that everyone will be like 'fuck this' and just get a Series X. I mean, it's the old strategy of bringing along a wingman that's uglier than you.. and not just a little bit uglier either.

I imagine instead of shooting rockets at the doors to open them, she just kinda kicks at them repeatedly and maybe smashes a bottle.- 81 replies

XxEvil AshxX replied to Brick's topic in The Spawn Point
FINALLY get to scratch Greedfall off the list. I enjoyed it well enough, but holy shit that game needs to be played when you feel like taking your time in a game, because nothing in that game happens quickly. It definitely gets my vote for Talking Simulator of the Year. Gonna do my Backlog Barbecue write-up on it pretty soon which I'll tear it a new one, as is apparently my custom.- 81 replies

I'm sure it will be, at least on Xbox, and it will most likely (finally) be the experience it should've been in the first place. But while the Xbox has internal magicks in place to make old games run better, the PS5 may just be using emulation, so there's a good chance the PS4 version will run... exactly the same. We don't really know because Sony won't talk about their BC functionality.
