Definitely upload it.

fair.

Skepticism is healthy in this day and age, but that site is also biased btw. Even the founder says their methodology isn’t unbiased.

When determining bias, there isn’t any true scientific formula that is 100% objective. There are objective measures that can be calculated, but ultimately there will be some subjective judgment to determine these. We have put up a scale with a yellow dot on each page that shows the degree of bias for each source. Each page also has a “detailed report” section that gives some details about the source and explains their bias.

When calculating bias, we are looking at political bias, how factual the information is, and links to credible, verifiable sources. Therefore, the yellow dot may indicate political bias or how factual a source is, or in many cases, both. It is important to note that our bias scale is based on the USA political scale, which may differ from other countries. For example, the Democratic Party of the USA is considered centrist or even right-center in many countries worldwide; however, in the USA, they are considered Left-Center. Please keep this in mind if our ratings seem off in your native country. (08/08/2022)

It’s a site run by one guy and 3 volunteers. Not really the greatest source.

In Diablo 3, I always saved the NPCs in Act 2 while doing bounties, even though there was no incentive to do so. Dunno if it counts as feeling good, but could never bring myself to ignore their cries.

Ah yes, the typical two-sideism crap.

Well if Aljazeera is the problem in your eyes, do you also think Ynet which reported it in the first place and shows pictures (which is what Aljazeera based their report on had you bothered to read the article), is also biased?

It’s not about specs or scope, it’s about designing a game to be actually FUN.

This is the key point that these publishers and studios are trying to avoid.

• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on designing microtransaction psychologically manipulative money sinks (dark designs)?
• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on creating addiction in the player-base so that they keep playing the game (and spending money)?
• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on bullshit DLC (not actual new content)?
• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on bullshit to satisfy shareholders?
• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on shit the devs don’t want, but executives do?
• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on bullshit padding for marketing purposes?
• How much of most AAA budgets are spent on bullshit DRM?

And keep in mind, by budgets here, I mean both the dollar amount AND time spent by devs that could be spent elsewhere (which is part of the dollar amount since salaries, but I wanted to make it clear that time spent is also important).

Some of the absolute best games in the industry have literally none of that, and people still want to play and buy them years after release because gasp they’re actually fun, but these publishers and devs don’t want to compare to those, because they WANT the industry to be a bunch of “GAAS” bullshit that’s basically a vacuum pushed into people’s wallets, cause hey, if it worked for Candy Crush…

Best thing i could find on it. doesn’t seem like it’s actually a controversy

A single console is one of those things that sounds great on paper, but considering how scummy the industry has been lately, would be used in the most anti-consumer way possible.

A single console on the market = Monopoly. Those are never good for consumers.

My guess is that at least one of them is going to require a download code which sucks.

Rabbid’s go home on wii. It’s one of the better “turn off your brain and relax” games

Super Mario 64 romhacks, but who am I kidding, I never stop working.

“These updates depend on many device-specific non-Google hardware and software providers that work with Google to provide the highest level of security and stability support,” said Peter Du, communications manager for ChromeOS. “For this reason, older Chrome devices cannot receive updates indefinitely to enable new OS and browser features.”

Bull. Shit.
