Completely agree. I think maybe digital hoarding can be real when it gets to the point where people are buying excessively to the point that they cannot afford it, but hoarding disorder would typically be associated with physical goods that are cluttering your space to dysfunctional levels.
That’s a new word to me, but yeah of course there’s a name for that.
Almost relevant XKCD
I don’t believe this screenshot, it would be too perfect
I love that excuse because I don’t ever recall any autistic people zieg heiling.
And the steam deck 3 will support those games
The Switch 1 and 2 are kind of unbeatable in power efficiency, and I’m not surprised a port of CP2077 is running better on the Switch 2 than on the Steam Deck. I wish they used a better screen and bigger battery out the gate with the Switch 2, but there will no doubt be a mid gen refresh with those things.
I think if you have a lot of money for buying games that are only going to work on one system, the Switch 2 is a better product for people that want a system that just works out the box. Steam Deck is for people with patience and an existing library.
Steamcharts showed about 150,000 concurrent players playing the game when I saw a few days ago; I’m shocked at just how popular it is as well. I think he could basically just work on it 70 hours a week for the rest of his life and it would still be a great hourly rate.
Mate, it’s one man, Self-published, pulling in the proceeds of a game that has sold 41 million copies. Even if he has made $5 per copy, that’s over $200 million dollars. The profit margin on his time even after 10 years is insane.
I have no idea why windows 11 axed that and it just makes the UX worse. It doesn’t even make it simpler for noob users.
I feel targeted
Haha same here, backlog is not going well. I made a bunch of folders in steam to organise it though so there’s that.
Crash Nsane trilogy and Stanley parable were cheap so I got those too.
CP2077 now feels like it’s what it was hyped to be before that awful launch, so I’m glad to have waited 5 years.
Oh they’d know. Everything at square when it comes to sales expectations is about ROI and E33 cost very little to make something better than FF7 Rebirth.
Same here. It hit my <$60 AUD buy point for the ultimate edition.
Urgh… I thought perfect dark was looking good
I think about as angry that Square Enix is that they couldn’t make an Expedition 33.
n****r-man was the name of one of Lovecraft’s family cats when he was growing up.
Two solo devs crushing the first two spots. Love to see it.
And typically the boycotters weren’t even the sort of people who were buying a switch 2 to begin with. Maybe there’s a subsection of them that will result in some loss of sales but it would be in the fraction of a percent. There’s no surprise to me when gamer boycotts fail.
With that said, the sales were unexpectedly high. Maybe people trying to get ahead of potential future tariffs were the reason. I thought cost of living was fucked and nobody could afford anything.
I’ll be waiting for the inevitable OLED refresh anyway.
Finally playing Cyberpunk 2077.
