Modern games criticism is 85% hating most games and 15% saying ā€œMy brutally honest opinionā€ for the most mundane opinions.

Interesting. Hope for good things.

Just play it through normally. Most games with story and exploration should be anyway on a first playthrough, achievement hunting can be done separately later on.

Price increase in Sweden. Looks like it’s probably gonna be like PS5 with a price increase everywhere but US, just slowly rolled out instead.

Yeah, it’s still $100 cheaper than the PS5 though.

In fact, it’s only moving up to the price point of the PS5 before Sony increased prices in Sweden and brings it in line with the prices in the rest of Europe.

Just wait though, when the news breaks on Other Era, we’ll have the drones there taking this and equating it to PlayStation having increased prices in the whole of Europe on both hardware and software. Complete with traditional Thiago thread, of course.

Yeah, there is nothing strange with this. Inflation is bad, and so is the currency vs. the USD. This is an adjustment to that.

Atomic Heart represents one of the greatest qualities of Game Pass for me. I always thought Atomic Heart was an interesting and cool looking game. If I have just read the reviews, I would probably have shied away from it and therefore losing on the experience. Now, thanks to Game Pass, I am playing and enjoying the game.

I wonder if it will be this year’s High on Life.

Has not been a problem in my country though, been seeing them in the stores here plenty.

Could be.

I watched it break in real time and it instantly turned into the console war shitfest you’d imagine. Spot on with the thread creator, too; it’s so predictable at this point, lol.

The person that’s blocking is from Remedy Games. Supposedly, he’s blocking anyone who enjoys Atomic Heart.

I have never tweeted even once to this man or even heard of him before seeing this post, yet I’m blocked . LMAO! Also I haven’t even touched Atomic Heart or ever posted about it to my knowledge. Sure he’s not just blocking Xbox dudes like that Jason Schrier prick?

There was a dev a while back that was going on a rant about russians and how they were all bad, not just the government, paraphrasing but that was the gist

Not sure if it’s the same guy I remember but I wouldn’t be surprised, blocking people because they are enjoying a game is a tad weird

I’m not sure why a random developer blocking people on twitter is a controversy worth any news - doubly since from the looks of things he’s Ukrainian, and rather than harass people like some did over Harry Potter is simply chosing not to engage with people supporting a game with reported ties to Russia - and is instead promoting various Ukrainian developed games.

I find it amusing personally. Twitter is such a stupid place . Does he have a program for mass blocking or has he been doing it manually all this time?

Likely the former. Some never mention the game and they still got blocked.

Just buy two copies of Stalker 2 to counter it /s

I am though buying the collectors edition though, I was going to cancel it a while back but though screw it I wanna support the devs further than just playing it on Game Pass which is still supporting them unlike some Game Pass detractors seem to think.
