Unfortunately it’s actually really good. Judging a game solely on lootboxes when you paid zero dollars for the game is comical to me. At one point ANY sort of paid DLC sure was tough to swallow but like, it’s optional, it’s how the gamesworld has evolved.
The new Skate game is bad:

IMO allowing players freedom does not coincide with making things difficult, skillwalls are an instant turn off for me in games—-let me choose to make the game more difficult if i want to challenge myself but making it mandatory is lazy and a cheap way to pad average playtime

We simply cannot live in a country where the death of hate mongers is a tragedy and the death of everyone else only warrants a shrug.

i get it, but people moving a release dates for a game because of another game is depressing af to me—the industry (not just games) is so bleak.

Dear #GameDev: I'm not going to pretend I know all the details, or that I should be considered an expert, but we need to talk about this situation. 🧵
