General Gaming News III: Gotta keep paying those CEOs

**Odesseiron** · 2024-09-03 22:03

Fucking lol

Good lord. I just googled "Upcoming live service games" and saw an article from earlier this year (granted it's from Kotaku) but it says over 500 studios are working on LS games. I know everyone wants to be the treasure, but there's only one pot at the end of the rainbow. I can't imagine this works out well.

I hope they crash and burn. Just give us good games. If it just happens to be a LS game, fine. But good games will get you CEOs your money. Not trends.

Semi-related to live service games, but Square-Enix on September 26 is sneaking this in the User Agreement of all their online games:

Square Enix reserves the right to discontinue publishing the Game in your country at any time, at which time the User Agreement will be automatically terminated for all affected Users.

That one has been on my Steam wishlist for awhile.

Seems once again a good SAO game will be a shooter:

They accidentally labeled some Final Fantasies as not containing overt LGBT content. I know nothing about the man's personal life, but any game with Amano art contains LGBT content.

There is a gamer gate reddit that I came upon researching the list, there is a Steam group dedicated to the list as well, that largely thinks it's a false flag to make them look bad.

It makes all neckbeard gamers look bad. No normie outside that community is going to distinguish between different factions of neckbeards.

That's cool, but then remastering Digital Devil Saga would be WAY COOLER (sorry, just trying to manifest that)
