    Activision would kill baby to have people want their game so much that it crash Steam server.

    Also the regional pricing is super cheap here($11), this gonna sell 10 millions.

    Edit: in the payment processing screen and it just fail to process. Whelp, it’s 10:30pm here, might as well get it tomorrow. Good luck everyone!

    Edit: so apparently it break every major platform except GOG and Humble. That’s crazy!

      Hot damn, not bad

      But yeah every major studio sees these games and thinks underpaying devs, union busting, and AI garbage are gonna get them there somehow.

      Meanwhile Steam keeps making self-made millionaires who busted ass on a passion project people adore for years. Like the Balatro guy, it makes me happy to think about and I hope he’s doing well.

        Because aaa developers are in the business of the business of making games. As in financing, shuffling money, stock appreciation, selling assets at opportune times, etc… They are no longer interested in making games, they’re trying to make infinite money through an established ecosystem.
