100% Brad, I've gotten to the point where I will not buy a thing on Switch unless it's exclusive to the platform, and when I do, I usually pay for it and then just emulate it on my PC. I just can't stand playing these games on that hardware, it's so rough. I don't emulate literally anything else, only Switch games, because the hardware is so old and long in the tooth.

I find it surprising that you guys are surprised that Arkane can make a bad game. Was Wolfenstein: Youngblood so forgettable that the entire staff actually forgot it?

Brian Streleckis

Regarding the wrestling/trucking crossover, the late Brodie Lee/Luke Harper was a dirty trucker character prior to signing with WWE (and looking the same as he did on the indies).

“Kotaku ran a report…” Kotaku is a blog. Not a news outlet. Sucks how the very online parts of games coverage have completely forgotten what actually counts as news.

James Eldred

Just because you don't like Kotaku doesn't mean they don't report news.

If the Vampire Survivor show could be like a more "Adult Swim" version of what Castlevania turned out to be then I think that would be a really fun and niche to find itself in. I feel like that genre of cartoon has petered out in the wake of Family Guy clones.

Jacob Owens

I do like them. They are not news. They are people who learned how to write essays in college, and have turned that into a job. But, it is not news.

Really taking this hard stance for a silly reason as if a website can't publish multiple types of content, and as if Kotaku hasn't broken plenty of stories before.

As someone who just dove into Marvel Midnight Suns, I'm having a great time already spent 60hrs and just got to part 2. Lol I was flabbergasted when I saw part 2 come up. I thought I was almost finished but apparently It has just begun. Can't wait to see how it wraps up. So many great systems that wrap up. Not too much of one thing.

Jacob Owens

I wouldn't consider this a hard stance. It's just my opinion. Seems to bother you more than it matters to me.

Redfall was another example of a developer known for single player experiences making trend-chasing open world GaaS junk. They just happened to strip out the main GaaSy stuff (remember, the leaked screenshots back in 2021 showed an item shop and two currencies) and pushed out a boring, broken game. It’s like Gotham Knights, and Suicide Squad will be next (unless they manage to change the game for the better with that year delay).

Very happy you took my sir mix-a-lot question. I’m just happy to share the dumb knowledge I stumbled across :)
