Don’t just dump on a game without giving legit criticism about it first.
Don’t be afraid to vote with your wallet either, but be NICE AND LOUD about it when you do. Short version: Don’t pretend that somebody else taking games seriously has any impact on YOUR ability to enjoy them. That shit gets expensive, and if they’re just entertaining folks as a hobby, you bet they’re going to want a good deal for their dollars. A great many of them do, and especially if they don’t play them for a living. Don’t think for a moment that the big streamers on Twitch (some of the most important ambassadors of gaming) don’t look at games seriously either. I get super nitpicky about FPS games, not just because I’m a gun geek, but because I LOVE FPS games, and I want that genre to continue delivering new and enjoyable experiences. Most of the time, the harshest criticism comes from the people that love games the most. Criticizing a game does not mean that you hate it. Wanting games to be better than they are doesn’t mean that you’re not having fun. Realize that consumer input has the ability to directly influence the industry as a whole. Enter a specific hero name and you can choose a corresponding class. Start by visiting the Stage Coach, and press ENTER to initiate a search. Backer Heroes from the Stage Coach: - There are 300 heroes you can summon as you access the Stage Coach ahead of your next adventure. Consumers get more for their money, which happens to include you. Darkest Dungeon Cheat Codes: - Submitted by: David K. Don’t let yourself fall into the “gamer identity” trap of taking criticism of a game you enjoy as a personal affront either.įrom criticism, the medium advances, for whatever you consider that to be worth. If the folks behind them, and especially publishers, are held to a high standard, that benefits everyone. You have a vested interest, as a consumer, that they be openly critiqued. You can think of games as toys, or as art, but no matter what your mentality toward them, the fact remains that they are products. I thought this was going to be a post about “tryhards” for a moment, but it’s another important point about gaming.
even one of my favourite games, diablo 3, was 60 bucks at launch with 40 dollar dlc at launch for a game you can now buy in totality for 30 dollars because dropping prices is easier than respecting buyers, and now they’re going to come out with another character and make you pay for them despite the lack of content in RoS in comparison to the base game), because people don’t think of games as art, they think of them as just a product that you can buy and consume so you can move on to the next one so you don’t have to think about what you actually played No, fuck you, that’s what the industry wants you to think and that’s why video games are the shitshow they are now, because people keep letting triple a companies get away with shit like not doing quality assurance (because bugs are funny and random xD nothing more fun and quirky than being softlocked forever and unable to complete the game) and overcharging the player with dlc (the only example i can think of in recent memory of a game with bad dlc actually failing is evolve. A sentiment that really fuckin turns my stomach in the gaming community is the idea that if you think critically about a game then you’re “taking it too seriously and it’s just supposed to be fun”
