Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.
Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.
But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.
They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
Marie Dealessandri speaks to Borislav Slavov and Gustavo Santaolalla about “the new golden age of games music”.
A famous actor from Starship Troopers has showered praise on Helldivers 2 and said he is open to the idea of playing General Brasch.
They have nothing to apologize for, I mean we all get sarcastic a bit, Bioware is mostly a stayed calm type of company, so I was surprised to hear this. Please no one hate them they still make amazing games.
It is a nice apology, but unnecessary.
Now this is really odd. It's not everyday you hear of a writer of this magnitude apologizing for something like this. I'm with Andre Wiggin on this one. Nice, but unnecessary.
If you continue to boycott them, you are in essence supporting them. Point blank, the game has sold over 1 million units in it's first day alone. Whether or not you boycott them isn't going to make a difference. However, criticizing them does give them more publicity, and more publicity is exactly what they want right now.
Sorry to tell you, but his is a loose loose situation. And regardless of what anyone says or does, this game is inevitably going to break a lot of sales record. Shoot, it already broke GTA4'S first day sales record.
Nice of him, but imo didn't really seem like a big deal
