Good? No, definitely not.

Meanwhile, Indie games: Yeah, we fixed the wonky balancing with that super niche strategy and we’re working on 3 new DLCs (all free, btw)

HAHAHAHAHAHA

The Elder Scrolls fans: First time?

What I love most about Godot is that it doesn’t give a fuck whether you want to use python-like code or write your own libraries in C#/C++. 10 minutes and you’ve got something working.

Of course they did. Godot is a freaking dream for most game genres.

They do, but not so much that your average home user would notice without having more than enough time to fix the problem.

Read it as 120TB at first and my eyes nearly jumped out of their sockets.

Here comes another Atari Jaguar.

Yes, actual gamers do care about this. I suppose casuals and other Nazis don’t, so your notion is flipped.

It doesn’t, but go ahead and delude yourself.

It’s available on Steam, as well as the Zero series of games.

Skill issue on your part, you got duped by pretty lights. Super Mario is to this day playable. Megaman X is still one of the thightest platformer games ever made, the controls nearly feel like they read your mind.

Also notice how the few games that are better than these classics were either made by the same people (Igarashi’s “Bloodstained” reboot of Castlevania) or were HEAVILY inspired by them (Hollow Knight, Shovel Knight, 30XX etc)

Fallacious reasoning. “Indie” isn’t a genre of games. I don’t claim AAA games are garbage because of a preference – they’re objectively slop made without passion as a cashgrab.

When said “major players” only pump out trash that’s not fun to play, yes, I will ignore them gladly. The last AAA game I bought was Fallen Order, which I promply refunded after finishing, since it was more of a walking and climbing simulator than anything else – and that was one of the better AAA games to come out in the past decade.

Indie devs and studios are the ones actually carrying the industry forwards.

And the one main issue with FOSS rears its ugly head – freedom of contribution also means freedom of bad contributions.

No, it simply isn’t. And even if it were true, there are people like me, who will gladly only be competitive in games and sports.

Nope. Godot, a fully free Unity-like Engine is shaping up to be the defacto standard for good games (AAA garbage is being ignored purposefully)

I’m not a masochist, why would I do that?
