Reply to comment by VelvetBox17 in Is there a way to play Elden Ring for free? I would prefer big companies produce their games for free and we as the players just need to watch ads. Why does anyone pay anything for a game still? by CanisLVulgaris

Why? Really, tell me why I do look stupid? Because I asked a question? Or because I scratched on the throne of games which aren't for mobile to become like mobile games? I was asked by people to make my games for free with ads. Why is any other game different?

Reply to What is the most underrated triple A game? by helloda111j9

Not sure if they're classed as AAA but I'd consider the the Metro games (more specifically, 2033 and Last Light) to be underrated.

They're my all-time favourite games but I don't really see many people playing or talking about them. In my eyes, they are the best form linear story-driven FPS games since Half-Life 2 released!

Reply to What’s your longest play time in a game? 🎮 by UK-Gamers

All time. Destiny 1. Roughly 3000 hours. But I was well beyond the top 1% in that game so I’m glad it counted for something.

In one sitting was when my friends and I attempted a worlds first in a destiny 2 raid called deep stone crypt. 17 hours straight. Sadly finished around 17th place or so but it was an absolute shit load of fun.

Did I enjoy it? Overall, yes. Am I ever doing that shit again? Hell no. Have I played destiny 2 since that point? No. Completely killed the game for me I was burnt OUT. That was 2 or 3 years ago. Whatever the date was when that raid came out, 17 hours later was my last login to that game🤣

Reply to Red Dead Redemption 2 completion rate among different platforms! by -NiMa-

This game took me about three years to finish. Thought it was too slow and the game felt one dimensional at first. Hated Arthur because he was just a "yes man." Glad I finally kept going back because it all set the stage for a remarkable story that really took me on a journey of character growth and exploration. I've never seen anything with so much splendor.

Reply to comment by loyaltomyself in Returnal is an underrated game by KikiBrownLove

adjective

rated or evaluated too low; underestimated or undervalued

Using the actual definition you could easily make the argument that the game was undervalued and underestimated by the average gamer. "Rated" isn't just referring to people who get paid to critique.

I think the Fast and Furious movies are overrated as fuck and they make shitloads of money in spite of having terrible reviews

Reply to I am done with gaming journalists/journalism by Kunstbanause

So after decades licking boots of the industry we finally get actual journalism. Sounds great to me.

If you read or listen to Interviews from journalists that have written mags in the 90s and 00s almost everytime they complain that they worked to close to the industry and sometimes even felt like corruption/bribery. That is beginning to fade.
