its not the same.
90s were nerds.
Now these are loosers who dont fit into society

And 90s nerds fit into society so well?

It's absolutely the same. The gaming industry is filled with outcasts who diverge from mainstream society. Always has been like that and always will be, and they will naturally let their own personal fantasies guide their creative processes. When it was horny nerds who weren't getting any pussy, it was making games with macho muscular characters surrounded by big-breasted women in scantily-clad outfits. Now that it also encompasses nerdy women and other minorities, naturally they will also fantasize of (in their POV) idealized characters that are in positions of power.

It’s also 11am on a Tuesday lol. Let’s see what the numbers look like tonight and especially through the weekend.

Still, 11k in the middle of a work/school day is not bad

Witcher 3, an 11 year old game with janky combat, has 94k players online at the moment.

I don't think the evening or weekend will make a drastic difference.

Yeah whatever. It’s not the same.
Games used to be cool. Not this woke lgbt political message slop.
Last thing I want to think about with gears.

It’s a release day and I am not buying or playing it… and I am a huge trilogy fan. Finished these games many times.

Man fuck gaming I am so bummed out. F all of this crap

 

[rofif]

playing this right now on gamepass.
Did they fuck up the controls or am I missing something?
Roadie run sucks and turns even slower now.

But the biggest issue is how you have to use a separate key to run out of cover.
Normally holding the cover button would make you roadie run out of it. now you have to press run button when also holding up...

btw runs great and looks ok on pc. about 50-60fps 4k, dlss performance ludicrous settings, all the other stuff on.
200 fps with x4 fg and feels good

Yes they changed the controls. Took some time getting used to in the beta.

Are you enjoying the game?

I am getting used to new controls but it's great so far. I dont see any of the complaints so far. Maybe the lancer mk1 feels a bit mid.

About the woke stuff... I am very early on but... I would've have noticed any of this myself. Asmongold and other grifters seem to be ruining stuff again.
-The Carter girl character you meet is fine so far. She is not obnoxious or anything. She is just another soldier.
-the scene where she closes an ehole with granade that everyone keeps "wow she discovered it!"... cmon... I would've not bat an eye myself. it was just a normal scene.
-The "game plays itself" shooting range? Seriously?! The shooting range scene was just for a scare.

So far (very early,) I am enjoying the game and all the woke stuff was youtube grifters bullshit (so far). The architecture and style is ON POINT so far.

You’re a fucking dumbass that won’t buy Saros or Yotei because of “woke” and yet you’re now defending a game that is 10x more woke?

Talk about grifters….youre the biggest hypocritical grifter of them all…

it's not woke yet.
Dont be a tool, I can't even enjoy a game lol.

I told you MANY times before why i didnt buy saros and yotei. It's because I am not intereseted at all.
I would get saros on pc probably but I am not that interested to buy it for 70$ on a playstation. I've not played on it in ayesr

Your dumbass goal post keeps shifting

First it was Woke

But now that you are enjoying an egregiously woke game, it’s now because you’re a poor

Make up your mind, Chud peasant

Btw hilarious that Asha is quoting DAYONE for her gears celebration tweet. Bought and paid for

shut up bitch. I dont care what you think.
I was just not interested in saros and yotei. Not on a ps5 right after I got a new pc you dumbass

What do you expect from him and his post history lol.

There was that one poster "im not playing avowed because its woke"

Weeks later, its really good... lets make fun of Concord being woke..

what do you expect from me? I find this judging me very personal. You dont know me
I got a new pc last year, so I didnt care too much about saros and yotei... Should I be very sorry for wantint to play new games on my newly revitalized pc hobby? I said 100x over. i would get saros on a pc on a discount probably... but it's not looking interesting enough for me to boot up a ps5 for it.
More so - when it came out, I bought returnal on pc and replayed it (for first time on pc) and it was amazing as always.

And we are all victims of judging games without playing ourselves. Even if you dont listed to asmongold, there are tons of other youtubers always attacking every new release.
I am someone who gave forspoken a chance and discovered it was an amazing game on release.... while everyone else thought it is some woke crap. not only it was not that but it was a good game.

So fucking excuse me for again having doubts after not judging the game quality again based on same youtubers opinions online.
I am not saying these things are not in the game. I am saying... these realy are not an issue or barely noticeable at all.

 

[rofif]

btw I noticed dynamic MFG actually works and is supported.
and reflex is on by default, so it maxs to 225fps on 240hz monitor, nice.

There is no “Woke” in Yotei or Saros. It’s not an argument about it they’re less, there is none, but grifters need those arguments to cash in somehow.

Ahh explains why it's quiet from the usuals that talk about Steam CCU, interesting how that works.

This shit is hilarious

We have CCU watching day and night on marathon, which launched to 150k CCUs in the beta and around 90K for the full releas

Meanwhile, a $400 million dollar 7 year Gears project can't even beat Space Marine 2 years after launch, and it is doing about the same number of CCUs as Halo Campaign Evolved. Halo, by the way, was considered a big enough flop to completely kill 343 studios and that was a multiplatform release.

The Coalition is absolutely buttfucked into oblivion with this. Yet Timdog is out here claiming a victory lap
