Dariusmiles2123,

It’ll be interesting to see what it changes for us consumers.

What I’m happy to see is that they talk less about games as a service lately.

Dariusmiles2123,

That’s why I’ll keep buying physical for the games or movies I love.

The only question I have is what’s gonna happen as game discs are just becoming an access token to download the game and its updates.

I’d have nothing against digital games or movies if you didn’t see such behaviors.

Dariusmiles2123,

I can understand piracy when they take away something you’ve already bought, but I’d not want to do it for something I haven’t bought yet.

I wanna be able to support people creating what I like.

Dariusmiles2123,

It’s good that people are worrying about this. Although, I haven’t heard of any disc game not being able to be played. I guess it would only happen if Sony/Microsoft go bankrupt or decide to close PlayStation/Xbox game updates servers.

It ain’t likely to happen but it’s important to be able to preserve games for the future as they are part of history just like paintings.

Dariusmiles2123,

As long as you have a way to download the data that ain’t a problem for me, but if one day Sony or EA closes without giving the update data to be available for everyone that would be a problem.

Still I don’t see the advantage for them to only put the early stages on the disc. Are they saving money this way?

Dariusmiles2123,

I can’t agree, but I can agree to disagree with you.

For me as long as you’re not paying for some form of art, you’re not supporting the artist, so you’re stealing.

But I’d be the first one to download a torrent if something I paid for kind of disappeared like this.

Dariusmiles2123,

I’m fine with this as long as I’m still getting FFVII part.3 on PlayStation.

To be honest I don’t really care about exclusives and I think it should just be for first party developers.

Although I wouldn’t mind getting Gears of War on PlayStation.

Dariusmiles2123,

I’ve played FFVII remake and I’ve played 45 hours of rebirth and I’m enjoying it so far.

Maybe less than the original but I guess I’ve changed in 25 years and I want more mature and less japanese dialogues.

Dariusmiles2123,

I can’t read the article, but I ain’t surprised by the fact that no one wants to pay more than what Apple is already billing.

They are clearly trying to circumvent the rules just like the bad company they are.

Still I have to admit that their hardware and software is quite good even if I ain’t a fan.

Dariusmiles2123,

Played it two times on ps5. Once on 1.50 and once on 2.0. I haven’t experienced crazy glitches…

Dariusmiles2123,

I loved the world, enjoyed its story but didn’t like the combat as it felt a bit messy and I felt overpowered as a hacker.

After two playthroughs, I’ll probably do the expansion at one point but I don’t know if I should play it from one of my playthrough or from a new save.

Dariusmiles2123,

Sim City 2000 used to be my game and I’m looking for the same vibe on a non-demanding game I can play on my Surface Go 1 with Fedora.

Dariusmiles2123,

Except getting more user information, I don’t really see the big advantage for Sony so it’d be interesting to know why they want to require a PSN account in countries where you can’t get one.

Also I’d want to know why you can’t get one in some countries.

Dariusmiles2123,

Good news I guess as I’ll never again buy a new computer which can’t be upgraded in the long term.

It ain’t my vision anymore and I hope more and more consumers think about buying second hand or buying upgradeable computers.

Dariusmiles2123,

Incredible game series until Kojima went crazy with its base management and soldier recruitment.

MGSV was such a disappointment that I’m trying to erase it from my memory.

Dariusmiles2123,

And the lack of a real story on top of the base management just finished destroying the game.

Dariusmiles2123, (edited )

I might be dumb but I still don’t understand the use of such a download manager.

I mean I guess I have an integrated download manager in Firefox and it’s sufficient for my user case.

Dariusmiles2123,

Thanks for the explanation 👍

Dariusmiles2123,

Huge thanks to all the people working hard to bring us Linux phones. One day I hope to be able to use one of them🙏

Dariusmiles2123,

Would be loving it if it’s console related. That’s what I would need to really leave YouTube.

How do you like to approach writing about games?

I've noticed there are some folks writing at length here on their experiences playing games, so this felt like a good place to ask. Do you take notes as you play, and/or after each session, then write out full thoughts upon completing a game?

Or are your reflections compiled only after finishing a game, no notes?

I've dabbled with different approaches, and haven't really settled on a consistent process personally.

@patientgamers

Dariusmiles2123,

I’ve never really written about a game, but I’m admirative of people who are able to while still enjoying the game.

The only time I tried it was on Reddit to try to redeem Dead Space 3 and encourage people to still try despite what they could hear about it. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t well written at all, but it was really sincere as I enjoyed the game 😅

Dariusmiles2123,

Some of them can be supported through Patreon and they’re getting way more money than through YouTube.

But it’s through that it lacks content and it’s also difficult to find content on peertube.

Dariusmiles2123,

Give what you can and if you can’t it’s also okay.

I’m only giving 1$ a month to the Linux Experiment, but, according to him, that’s way more than what he would get from me watching his videos on YouTube.

I’m also donating 100$ a year to many open source projects, but I might have to give up because of financial troubles too…

Dariusmiles2123,

I still have to really try it, but last time I typed « PlayStation » and there was almost no result…maybe it’s just the lack of content though…

Dariusmiles2123,

I was talking about channels, reviewing games and so on.

Not the odd homemade video…

Something that you could follow long term to keep being informed, like IGN or gamespot for instance.
