A certain someone recently wrote:
"They have the money to spend on things with minimal costs like "helping" indies. La-di-da. If all they did was help indies, that'd be one thing. It's like people voting for politicians because they're kissing babies on TV, or going to McD to shut their kids up and get them worthless expensive toys.
Shortsighted like always."
It was in reply to a serious argument I made about.... Steam.
La-di-da? Politicians? Kissing babies? McD?
WTH?!? I'm talking about an occasional cheap game, and how I see indie games all the time on Steam. I just don't get it - maybe because I'm so short sighted
Anyways, although kinda funny in itself, it made me realize that this forum sadly no longer offers any interesting or relevant discussions - for me at least! It has become a waste of time in my daily life, and therefore I'm cutting it away to make room for more important stuff.
I visit forums to talk about things that excite me. Games that I like, programming problems and their solutions, music etc. I'm looking for positive attitudes and discussions, to help other people out and receive help in return when needed - not endless bickering and arguing.
It's been a *long* time since such a discussion took place here. It seems we're down to hating Bioware, hating Steam, hating.. well pretty much everything. Some even hate people for giving away free games for christ sake
Anyways, the real point of this post was to say a sincere thank you to the *great* RPGWatch staff for posting all those great articles and reviews, year after year. I'll still be relying on this site for my daily CRPG news!
