Video Game General

Any game that becomes stadia exclusive is doomed to fail.

@Mikey
When a system's gimmick is that you can't download the game you're playing…

@Meanlucario
Yeah lol
Say what you will about epic, but stadia is actually harmful to the industry if any games becomes exclusive to it.

"Future of Gaming" indeed.

@Mikey
Both are harmful. But thankfully, no games have been announced as exclusive to Stadia.


Yet.

I've heard of Stadia but all I know of it is it's apparently Google breaking into the market?

@Dustcan
Stream-only console, so you can't download what you buy from it. If you could, they would ruin it's gimmick.

@Meanlucario

Because that's what I want. Pay $60 a game to not play something every time my internet craps out or a company decides server costs are too much.

I'd like Fallout 5 to add hacking and PSI abilities.

Any game that becomes stadia exclusive is doomed to fail.

part of me hopes that Stadia ends up becoming the thorn and eventually makes Google lose not only more credibility, but also force them to split into two different companies later on. It happened with Atari in 1984, so why not Google in 5-7 years?

@Background Pony #7E7C
You never played a Fallout game before, have you?

@Meanlucario
No, but I plan on playing 1 soon and maybe also getting Tactics. I know fallout takes place on a more realistic World than TES, but so does Bioshock! YOU CAN have a game with nuclear weapons, post-19th century firearms and the like along with the ability to hack and use PSI Abilities. Whats so wrong with spicing the playfield up with fallout 5 by adding such things?

@Absol95
Hacking is in Fallout, though.

@Meanlucario
Oh, okay then.

That's why I think Stadia will end up flopping. Good internet isn't universal..and you know, the issue of not actually owning what you purchase.

The biggest game I have digital is RDR2 and that's because it was more convenient to preload it when it was going to take ages to install and I wanted to play it the day of release right away.

@ExtreVile
I dont understand how this Monster Energy drink became such a meme, almost the equivalent to the Mountain Dew.

I had a dream that the world was under attack by ghost alien things that look like fucking Dementors, and that they take the form of video game characters to gain a physical body.

Do you know how horrifying it is to be kidnapped by a murdering evil Master Chief? I was surrounded by like 20 armed guards and this guy just casually beats the crap out of them and kidnaps me. He then used remote charges to blow up the area, ensuring our escape.

It's fucking horrifying.

So, the Dragon Quest XI S demo is friggin' huge… as in, if you take your time grinding and doing all the sidequests as you play through, it could potentially take you up to 10 hours.

I wish more game demos were this big. Not that I expect them to be 10 hours, but they should at least be long enough to get a really good feel for the game and determine whether or not it's something you might want to buy.

Downloading the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2v2 Alpha. I'm actually looking forward to this one after having not played since Black Ops 3 (or Ghosts..whichever).

What wins, a wasteland full mutated creates, blood-craving raiders and fully armored advanced soldiers… Or a stealthy crouching boi?

@E-123
In Classic Fallout, they're not even crouching.

@Meanlucario
The ones people forget existed.

@Cyborg_pony
The ones people act like are the greatest games ever made, you mean.
