I find it funny that RDR is being framed as a Rockstar issue, when it feels more like a Sony issue. RDR has been backwards compatible on the Xbone since 2016. The reason Rockstar has to make a port is because of how poor PlayStation is at backwards compatibility
I’m OOTL, what’s wrong with RDR?
It’s going to be a full price port of RDR, a game from 2010. Not a remaster or remake, just a 13 year old game for $60
Also no PC port.
Yet! They do this shit all the fucking time. They will stagger their releases and double dip people. This isn’t to say people should pay 50 bucks for a fucking barely touched up game but the pc port thing is probably going to happen in a year or 2.
RDR is a new low though. It’s a game from 2010, originally on the Xbox 360 and ps3. Being released on switch at full price with no enhancements.
Oh its fucking stupid but honestly after the whole GTA trilogy thing, would you really want them to touch it up? They have proven they are terrible at it but yeah it being full price is insane.
A new low? Ever heard of Skyrim? I guess it is a new low for rockstar, but Bethesda’s been doing this successfully for far, far too long.
“See that mountain over there? You can go there now playing on your refrigerator screen! Stay tuned for more exciting updates as we port Skyrim to that old beeper you still have in your junk drawer for some reason.”
I’m kind of glad I have a definitely unmodded switch.
Also, definitely glad there totally isn’t an emulator that has the letters r p c s 3 in the name.
I do not condone piracy. Only use these tools if you have legally bought the game when it first came out.
Diablo 2 hypewave smoothbrains: full price for a 20 year old game ported to console? puts car in gear and squeals tires
Diablo 2 was completely remade graphically. Whether it was worth the price is another matter, but effort was put into it.
D2R was a remaster.
Rereleasing the same game for $50
Never trusting rockstar with another game. They CBF to even update RDR2 on PS5 to give it a basic performance mode, so why would I trust any of their new “remakes” will get support
Wait, what happened to D4? I haven’t played it in a while. Do people hate it now?
D4 will always be around. It’s one of those games you can leave for years and come back to later. Be super keen on giving it a go once it’s decently priced tbh. They definitely don’t deserve 100+ AUD for it though
They nerfed it even more with S1, which made gameplay not fun. Meanwhile, us D2 players have hated it since the beginning, for many, many, many reasons. D4 has potential, but it’s not there yet - Blizzard needs to seriously work on getting the game balance right, but even then, I don’t see some aspects of the game improving due to the design decisions they made.
Personally, I’d rather place my hopes on PoE 2.
$70 game with mtx. That’s a lot to hate right on its own
It’s just for cosmetics, I don’t understand why similar stance by BG3 which also has cosmetics behind additional purchase (Deluxe edition) is largely ignored
You’re comparing a digital deluxe one time purchase (that was a free reward to those that purchased the game when it was in early access) to an entire cash shop filled with cosmetics.
People hate the season 1. I don’t play it myself, so this is a second hand information from my friend who used to love it. They nerfed characters so hard with the new balance patch and the end game contents for season 1 isn’t great.
It’s just more of the same but with a reset. With a puny weak sauce season mechanic I couldn’t be bothered to regrind all the reknown, all the dungeons etc. Got bit further into endgame compared to pre-season but the lack of storage and organisation made me quit a few weeks ago. Four (4) stash tabs, or is it five, and no search. How the heck am I supposed to manage loots and dungeons?
Nah, back to other arpgs
Ok, so that guys face looks incredibly familiar but I just can’t place it. Somebody help me out. This feels distinctly early-mid 2000s.
It’s from a movie named “Half Baked”.
Gah, that’s it. Thanks. Haven’t seen it in a very very very long time.
Dark and Darker
Diablo 4 was great. BG3 I hear is great. Remnant 2 still is great.
RDR? Was never a fan of bleak wasteland games so I ended up dropping it. I could barely get through Fallout 3 for the same reason.
Fuck Overwatch 2. Never played it, but hearing is enough.

Ah yes, CRPGs, famously a genre that has never had any releases since the 90’s.
Except Path of Exile, Torment: Tides of Numenera, Pathfinder: Kingmaker/Wrath of the Righteous, Divinity Original Sin 1&2, Pillars of Eternity 1&2, the Shadowrun series, Disco Elysium…
It’s perfectly fine to have preferences, but don’t shit on a genre because of your own ignorance.

ARPGs are also from the 90s.
