| Captain_Yuri said: One thing I miss about Totalbiscuit was his port reports. He used to call out so many companies and he used to go over forums to see what other peoples were experiencing and etc. And because of his influence, people listened. He was one of the main reasons why PC versions have gradually improved and started including things like FoV sliders. Sadly, we don't have anyone like him anymore. Alex from DF certainly does his PC analysis and points things out but they are too nice about it. We need someone more aggressive like TB used to be. |
I really miss when TB was around too. When he spoke up, people listened, or at least spread his word across the net.
Jim sterling sorta picked up after TB, but he ended up wasting more time droning on about really shitty games on Steam (fucking up his own Steam algorithm, which he still didn't admit was his own doing), and now he's on some silly "self discovery gender" thing, and not really putting more focus on slamming bad PC ports like TB used to.
Now there's no one out there with enough clout/reasoning like TB, and as a result, we're just getting shit ports and bad practices growing more as each year passes. Regional prices are also getting fucked over by publishers as well, just look at this shit:
Tales of Arise
Alex is an alright guy, but at the end of the day, DF regulates him down to "PC report/optimised settings", and his general character screams of a guy, being more fascinated by GPU tech and settings, instead of what makes a good port and talking about how shitty ports exist (which would make for a great educational subject from them).
We definitely need someone from PC to stand up and get people back to the old days of not taking bad shit, back in the days when we had to suffer GFWL, people rightfully slapped MS, but these days it's more of "what can you do/it's not so bad/stop whining".
Also the generation that keeps using the shitty and scummy "you're just entitled", card, for shitty prices and bad ports:
Like some ppl think I'm some elitist, but really all I want is some good motherfucking games, some great performance, and I genuinely want everyone to have a really good time, but only some of us are having a good time, some don't care, and others are just warring for worse off times. Like all I really want is for gaming to be good, not taken for some shitty joy ride by publishers copying Hollywood business practices (like how Hollywood is completely dicking over local Cinemas).
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
