But let me play the Devil's advocate after 3 years of high inflation ; corporations who sold games at 60 dollars 5 years ago want 90 dollars now.
Last time I bought a game was to reward some pretty original take on ''colony-builder survival'', after trying it on the high seas was Timberborn, about 20 dollars.
Had they priced it significantly higher I would not have bought it, because I have a very limited budget.
Had they have a way to prevent playing without paying ( always online, DRM, etc ) I would simply not play it at all. The ''whoops, torrent is free demo'', good game, good price are the reasons they made a sale with me.

They can want to charge and can even actually charge whatever they want. The problem for them is that they need to convince people that games have that much more value.

That's what it really comes down to. They can argue something's "value" is whatever they want it to be, but nothing can ever be worth more than what someone is willing to pay for it.
Still means $90 shouldn't become the new normal price then, because trusting any dev to that level is not normal, it's reserved for a tiny fraction of them.
Letting feminism differentiate itself by waves was nothing more than a defensive tactic by feminists to separate themselves from their own history and refuse to acknowledge parts of it.
Such as "feminism was good until tumblr, its those third waves that are bad." By continuing to do so, you are literally helping them deny their own history and its effects on where we are now.
Communism and socialism do the same thing. Always bullshit like "that wasn't real communism", "real communism has never been tried before" or "state capitalism".
Wonder what else they have in common, since they certainly seem to share a similar attitude.
I skipped your point entirely because you were using their terminology that they made up to deny themselves any wrongdoing and culpability.
Thereby doing more favors for feminism than any coomer salivating over the right pic could ever do. I didn't even need to get into the idea that there is even a 4th wave (there isn't, it was absorbed into Intersectionality) or that it somehow relates to big boobie Marika.
Dang, everybody who possibly disagrees with you is the exact people you dislike. What are the odds?
Who's using their terminology now?
The mark of a true nitwit and low intellect. The inability to think in terms beyond basic black and white, "x must always equal x never y." The "wave" system is not good terms to use, as explained, because it was deliberately made up for a purpose that allows them to grant themselves absolution. "Intersectionality" is none of those things, its just a blanket word to encompass all the various Left leaning movements that now move as one arm.
The right one is like the women in Frank Frazetta art. It's just in that time they expected the women to just be eye candy and not also action girls that are stronger than men.
They'd never do it, but that would be an incredible plot twist. Advertise this ugly thing with no context then as the game progresses you gradually fight off the curse and end up super hot. Wouldn't even be out of character for a Fable game. Could you imagine the seething if they managed to keep that a secret?
Just read the synopsis. Sounds interesting, but it seems to be about a man cursed by a wizard, turned into a woman, who turns back into a man after the curse is lifted when he defeats the wizard. It's not quite what the poster above was suggesting.
Fable 2 already did the reverse, where in order to complete a questline the "good" way you must sacrifice your youth and remain a wrinkled, ugly ballsack for the remainder of your playthrough.
the art i like vs the art YOU share on YOUR timeline
JFC, I was not prepared for Goatsee this morning!!!
Given the fact that you were promoting a video game that was so bad it crashed an entire studio its safe to say that your opinions on anything video game related should be discarded.
bruh... why do you shame me for liking a big breasted fictional character when I don't shame you for this? [Furry character sketch sheet with ass shot]
It’s been a long time since I was on Twitter but if my memories are accurate, if the OP of this thread is not into furry porn that would put him in a small minority.
The OP linking the likes of his critics is an effective tactic precisely because twitter is exactly as full of coomers and furries as you imagine-- and I am here for it.
The one on the right is a bit too much in my opinion, but certainly more in line with what gamers want. If I had to pick one, yeah, I'm definitely picking the one on the right.
It is 100% more in line with what gamers actually want. I don't want to play as even more ugly female Shrek. Who the fuck thought this is how you advertise to people your new game? Trailer has been downvoted to shits btw.
As he mentions himself, games used to have a boob slider for this purpose. A pretty basic part of character creation, removed because wimmenz got their feelz in a knot, so that every character is now a basically flat B cup at best.
As bottomless as their supplies for the money printer, so long as the dollar maintains any value.
They either enact what they want with infinitely printable currency or crash the economy and use the ensuing chaos to rebuild the world as they wish. Heads they win, tails we lose. (And in this metaphor landing on the edge would be the slim chance that they get guillotined by angry revolutionaries after they push things too far.)
I don't think they care about mods that affect models on your computer, you can find some wild stuff on Nexus Mods, but if you're worried I think you can play in offline mode
I don't care if you pay for coomer bait, but please don't set $90 as the new normal for games.
I won't pay 90$ ( nor 60$ ) for a game.

YOU WOULDN'T DOWNLOAD A CAR
Would if I could (and to gain access to the full suite of features, might have to download cracks & hacks.. thanks Tesla & BMW!)
I want off Mr. Bone's Wild Ride... I want off Mr. Bone's Wild Ride...
Not even if it says no microtransactions ever?
Why the fuck would you believe them when they say that though?
Same reason you believed them when they said "There will be no downloadable content for Octopath Traveler. It is a complete game."
Build trust.
Still means $90 shouldn't become the new normal price then, because trusting any dev to that level is not normal, it's reserved for a tiny fraction of them.
So the give someone a beating and then tell them no more beatings and they end up thanking you strategy.
They'd just call them DLC by bundling them together for a higher bulk price only.
Ah the pinkie swear approach. I like it.
Extortion.
If western games went back to the way they used to be in general I would gladly pay $90 for a few new releases.
We were founded in part on 'fuck feminism.' Imp's more about 'fuck women' and, no, not in that way.
I don't think you'll find a lot of disagreement on 'fuck feminism.'

Is the one on the left meant to be a meth smoking tranny?
It's the main character in Fable.
So, man cursed by an evil wizard to look like a homely he/she who drinks absinthe?
They'd never do it, but that would be an incredible plot twist. Advertise this ugly thing with no context then as the game progresses you gradually fight off the curse and end up super hot. Wouldn't even be out of character for a Fable game. Could you imagine the seething if they managed to keep that a secret?
There was an NES RPG that did something like this.
It was called Faria.
Just read the synopsis. Sounds interesting, but it seems to be about a man cursed by a wizard, turned into a woman, who turns back into a man after the curse is lifted when he defeats the wizard. It's not quite what the poster above was suggesting.
Fable 2 already did the reverse, where in order to complete a questline the "good" way you must sacrifice your youth and remain a wrinkled, ugly ballsack for the remainder of your playthrough.
So its already got its precedent.
Absinthe can be bought in your local liquor store.
Not the good stuff
sees picture
"Chicken Chaser? ... Do you chase chickens?"
Actually yes, it looks nearly identical to one of the devs, who is a deranged troon.
Yeah. Troons ruin everything.
Good thing somebody made an archive, because it looks like that thread got nuked.

Holy shit, that is truly a Twitter massacre for the ages.
JFC, I was not prepared for Goatsee this morning!!!
STOP STOP HE'S ALREADY DEAD!
Merciless and pitiless.
Truth is a ruthless killer.
for once,
don't kick Vee
All while shilling his gypsy wares!
I love it

Way too much. It’s so exaggerated that it’s rather nauseating. It’s the ugliness achieved by plastic surgery.
Literally everyone against this in the replies is an ugly feminazi or a degenerate faggot. Wow.
This is why you should harshly judge people based on their appearance.
I guess gaming companies hired bitter gender studies graduates who must despise attractive women
They've gulag'd Vee' twitter for a week
What game companies want are ESG funds. And nothing else.
Just how much are they getting for ESG compliance and how bottomless is that vault that's funding the destruction of everything good in the world?
To answer your questions in order:

mod for elden ring apparently
Will you get banned for such mods? Asking for myself because I like big tiddies in my games.
I don't think they care about mods that affect models on your computer, you can find some wild stuff on Nexus Mods, but if you're worried I think you can play in offline mode
I thought Nexus had gone woke and were some kind of only trans puritans. Will have to go back and see.
You can also easily find similar things with mods for FFXIV.
Vee never did provide the source image for the gilded lady
Seems to be a mod for Elden Ring to play as Queen Marika the Eternal
For some reason the site never gave me notification for your reply
Now that's a "plus-size" I can get behind!
