I don't necessarily agree that it's always true, but I can certainly agree about good people either being twisted or not making it in most cases.
Regarding your second point, that is if the company is publicly traded.

the vast majority are (i'd even throw epic in there as well ... even though Tim technically still owns a bit more than half of it)

capitalism still sucks donkey balls, though
I don't disagree with you, I'm just pointing to nuances that mean that some corporations can still be looked at not as black monoliths of evil - which they more often than not are - but instead as human enterprises.
hmmm new anime thread smell
iirc i read some interviews that Cygames are interested in /C for both games after PS launch... yeah, the fact that both GBF games don't have PC announcements yet is...
Third-Party exclusives continue to be some real bullshit.
probably waiting for next "whats coming to west" videoannouncement from Spike ... like that game that was leaked in Steam China presentation

Yes, ever since gog 2.0, I only open steam for sales since the mobile client is still garbage
I just wish they'd announce for PC already, but knowing ASW by the time it comes we'll have GBFV2 on the horizon.
Pretty much. Not gonna wait for it as we'll never know if it's this year or next.
I think I have found a good library-shelves overview now.
Games I wanna finish (SP games, games that have an ending, demos, betas, alphas)
Diverse (gaas games, neverending games, like Destiny, Warframe, DJMAX, Halo, Let It Die, MH World, fighting games, games not fitting in other categories)
Strategy
Roguelikes
Sandbox
VR - Play (for installed VR games)
GOG Galaxy 2 is therefore used to collect the games I have installed on MS Store/Game Pass (not working quite as Sea Salt isn't showing up), Origin, Uplay, EGS and Battle.net.
Steam is always open and logged on, but GOG is only open when I wanna play a game not on Steam.
I don't really have much of a problem with Galaxy 2, I just like the Steam library and stuff a lot more.
So Valve and CDPR are the only ones who are actually providing value to my PC gaming. The others are kinda "just there".

PlatinumGames going the Kickstarter route...

Supposedly the first thing they will be kickstarting is a port of Wonderful 101.
On the one hand, that'd be great, but with how trashy big kickstarters have been i worry

Sure, a KS but without all the versions, leaks not always are complete.
Considering they said they would love all their games on PC. It wouldnt make sense at all.
Nah man, it's just the merger with Activision.
There's no "Blizzard" anymore; it's Activision Blizzard.
Notice whose name is first in line & who decided Blizzard needed to fire 800 employees and you have all the information you need.

I've been having a tough time finding time to play anything.
Can anyone recommend me a few 2-4 hours games? Ideally, from different genres.
Thanks

I'm not getting anywhere near this until they clear the air around Nier:Automata and the scandalous state it's been left in on PC. I don't care about their spat with Square, pointing fingers is too easy when you leave your customers behind and they seem awfully comfortable with that.PlatinumGames going the Kickstarter route...

Already played the game on my U, will only kickstart if there also is a PC version.
Well actually, will only kickstart if they promise a Steam version.
If there will be a PC version they need to be super clear on Steam and EGS or they will just create unncessary drama.

If there is a Steam option, I will back it. However, if they just say "PC" . . . they better come out and clean.

Wouldn't have thought a well-known developer having issues to find a pub for an already completed game.
I finished Jedi Fallen Order. Well-built, engaging, evenly paced, generally fun.
It is far less Souls than was originally chattered about on most corners of the internet. The late game proves that, when your upgrades start to make you feel more like a seasoned jedi, and you abandon the measured, cautious parry-heavy combat in favor of timing a strong force-attack if only, for no other reason, because you can. Think Uncharted, since that's how the set-pieces work as they rapidly get bigger and more dynamic.
The story has an end-game twist that felt unnecessary but not in a total game-altering way. It just didn't need it and slightly detracts from an otherwise interesting Star Wars tale that follows the usual Star Warsian theme of redemption.
All told, I'd be in for a sequel. I'm assuming they do, since this was kind of a breakout hit.

Its a shame Microsoft didn't buy Platinum. They would have let them release games on Xbox, Switch and PC.
On top of that they would have had financial security where they wouldn't have to worry about bs like Kickstarter. They probably wouldn't have had cancelled Scalebound too.

Meh, if they're gonna kickstart something do something cooler/new. Unless that's for an actual sequel, then ok.
If it's Kickstarter for Nier Gestalt/Replicant port I'll back it without second thought.
The Microsoft that closed nearly all of its games studios less than five years ago? Come on man, the less studios they own the better, they can't be trusted with their track record.
What happened to Racing Apex, are all indie classic arcade racers doomed to never get released like '90s Arcade Racer/'90s Super GP? Is it a curse?
Cooler/new is what you'll see from the Tencent money they just got and would probably be considerably too expensive to be kickstarted. W101 is on here because fucking no one played that game and I doubt any publisher, including nintendo, gives a fuck about it..

I trust microsoft money and their current gamepass/steam/xbox vision much more nowadays days than some of these devs being on their own. Especially when they can't even port a game now without help of kickstarter. Its great for inXile and Obsidian. It would have been great for Platinum too. Knowing they would have supported as many as 3 platforms going forward would have been better than inconsistent/uncertain stuff we get with them now. Like Bayo3 being Switch exclusive or them doing this kickstarter thing.
I think MS today is a lot different than MS 5 years ago.
MS 5 years ago would not want any of their games like Gears 5 and Halo on Steam. Or Halo Infinite.
Sometimes it's weird to think that I will be playing Halo Infinite on Steam.

Yay! New month! Here's to hoping Feb won't be the blahs!
Also, winter needs to end, so no more evil cold...ok? One month closer to Spring

So the company that cancels Scalebound and nearly put Platinum out of business is the best option for them looking forward...
I respect that you trust their vision but we need time to see the results of this 'new' Microsoft.
2020 clearly is going to be a fucking interesting year, isn't it?
