only thing i liked about da2 was that the combat was kinda fun. unfortunately it came at the cost of it being a tactical game

I'd buy this game, but I have money for food or money for a game, and well...I have more sense than money.

Nope. I just don't understand people who pirate proper PC games and then proceed to whine and bitch when all we get are shitty console ports.
By all means, pirate this. But don't come back in 6 months and compain about the general quality of PC games. |
I don't post here very often, but I figured I'd throw my two cents in on this subject.
I've worked in the video game industry (Bay Area, C.A.-based company) and I can say that (a vast majority of) developers really couldn't give two shits less about piracy. Every so often someone in the industry will pop off about piracy or DRM or whatever, but it's mostly just to make it look like they're being "tough on crime/piracy" so it'll look good for investors, i.e. the people who really do give a shit about every penny.
The profits the developers lose to piracy (if any, depending on their contract with the publisher, who are the ones who typically see the actual losses from piracy) is an infinitesimally small fraction-of-a-fraction. They're so small that they're never even on the radar at board meetings. They lose more money on buying office supplies.
That being said, any perceived move to a more console-centric business model has little to do with piracy and more to do with market saturation. Far more people own consoles than people do high-end gaming rigs, so it stands to reason that one would make more money developing games for a wider customer base.
As for the argument against the QUALITY of PC games in the recent past, I wouldn't say they're any better or worse than the ones that come out on consoles. Blame for this issue lies square at the feet of publishers that impose ridiculous deadlines and quotas on over-stressed developers that could force them to work 18-hour days for up to three months to meet a deadline. You ever try to build character rigs for 18 hours straight after maybe three hours of sleep while your art director is constantly pissing nails down your neck? It's even worse on the code end of things.
Instead of complaining about the quality of games and blaming it on piracy, y'all may want to take a minute to think about how the industry works as a whole and not put too much stock into what the PR guys tell devs to say in interviews. |
Well, glad to see now and then we still get good posts!

Deus Ex 3 was released 10 hours ago.
And a lot of people (15.9%) already beat it.

It's funny just how much I'm playing this the way I played the original DX. I'm going stealth as possible on this run, so I'm constantly saving (bam DX1) and reloading if I feel I could have done something better. (NOT when it comes to story decisions tho) I'll probably become more lazy and immersed and will care less, ultimately.
Regardless, so much fun, the shooting is fun now! wasn't half as enjoyable on the box.
Also, the theme for this one is catching on me really quick too.
Will probably take a more harsh save-less approach on my next hardest diff run.
Blame! don't act!
