    Is anybody actually excited for new triple A games? I can’t remember the last time I was. Maybe Space Marine 2? But even then, I was really worried about how they’d jam it full of microtransactions after charging £70 for the base game or some other bullshit.

    I find it hard to believe people are genuinely excited in the more mainstream gaming space nowadays; I might be (am) being very very cynical but for a decade or more it’s felt like these “big” games are increasingly anti-consumer.

    Also the horrible commonality of game development studios and publisher higher-ups (and regular 9-5 employees) being implicated or found guilty of sex crimes. It’s pretty concerning.
