Off Topic Discussion Megathread

AC6 is being helmed by the Elden Ring team and they are very anti-dlc so that's a plus. My dream would be if they go back to the in depth mech customization of AC1-4.
Status: cautiously optimistic

I'm excited for any mech based game. Titanfall, Front Mission, Mechwarrior...

I wants it.

Titanfall

What happened to that IP really steams my clams. Titanfall 2 was one of the best FPS games I have played in a very long time and no other game has come close. Apex Legends feels like what would happen if Nexon bought it out. I just want a proper TF3, is that asking for too much?
*remembers EA owns the IP*
...nevermind...

Not to derail from the awesome Armored Core 6 conversation but I just realized that FFXVI is PS5 exclusive for 2023 and any hype I had for the game was instantly gone.

Just got to wait 3+ years for a scuffed PC port, what's there to be mad about?!

Hopefully we should get a PC version in 2024, however I am worried about a terrible port instead of it having a dedicated PC version being made. Still really frustrating to know I have to wait another 6+ months to play it because I have no want to buy a PS5 for a singular game.

Honestly same here. My country gets shafted hard when it comes to gaming because it's not considered as a worthy market by many companies, and consoles are really expensive here. Only ever had a second-hand PS3 I got from my brother in Australia. Besides... I personally find consoles a massive palaver. I get why console companies go hard on exclusives - especially looking at you Nintendo - and that it's business, but they leave a bad taste in my mouth. Wish the game creators made better ports. I remember buying FFIX on Steam and for some reason it's configured by default to use a controller and needs some diving-in to fix to use KBM (since OFC you can't change that in-game). It made me so mad that I didn't even bother touching it again.

Edit, I completely forgot I used to have a Nintendo 3DS. Think I blocked it out from my memory because it was so darn expensive to buy + get the games for. I bought the cartridges for 4 times the price of a dedicated PC game at the time.

So...Sims 4 is free on all platforms and last night I was in the mood to play it on PC. So I make my Sim...which is just a replica of me. I make my looks and his characteristics are Good, geek, book nerd...stuff like that.

I start to play...and my dude some how pisses of every single woman he talks to. Because of the Good perk he can apologize and I seem to do it several times a conversation every time I somehow make them mad.

10/10. So very true to life! Will play again tonight.

Only reason to play The sims is too create the most screwed up disfunctional family or person possible. Love fact that you made one without even trying that just pisses women off rofl
