Alan Wake 2's Seemingly Dire Sales Don't Paint the Full Picture
  • The game was not great, at least personally. It wasn't bad, but it was just BL3 in a different dress, with less interesting story, less interesting characters. Also the DLCs were insane cashgrabs, not even close to the value BL3 DLCs had.

  • Your assumption that "using reflection means the code is wrong" seems a bit extreme, at least in .Net. Every time you interact with types, you use reflection. Xml and Json serialization/deserialization uses reflection, and also Entity Framework. If you use mocking in test you are using reflection.

    We have an excel export functionality on our sites that uses reflection because we can write 1 function and export any types we want, thanks to reflection.

  • The best writers will probably leave for another platform (see The Escapist). Those sites are worth nothing without the people that made them good

    Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown sales top five million
  • Awesome if you are looking for an arcade experience. The mission variety is good, it encourages you to try different aircrafts, the unlocks are "skill tree based", the soundtrack is often amazing. The multiplayer seems dead tho, so buy it for the campaign.

  • Me too. Just bought a Steam Deck recently and I'm playing a lot of games from the ps2 era... And I always find myself stuck to "complete every level with 5 stars" or "grab all collectibles" instead of focusing on good content (or just clearing the game normally to start emptying this backlog...)

  • I'm currently being diagnosed for ADHD (i probably have it but i still need the confirmation from my therapist), and I was wondering if you have problems being consistent with physical activities.

    I always start very confident and very excited, but after a couple of weekend the thing dies down.

    Even if I force myself to pay and go to the gym, I often don't reach the end of the subscription and quit.

    This is also a problem with home exercises, running, hiking...

  • Content-wise was the right middle ground. Not too long but the content was all real content and not ubisoft-like collectaton.
