There has to be something at stake for exploration heavy games to work. No Mans Sky seems like a walking simulator combined with Minecraft lite resource collecting and management. Minecraft works because there's something at stake, and building something extravagant in survival mode requires some commitment and brain juices.

Like, can you even lose enough shit so you're then stranded on a planet in No Man's Sky? What can be ramped up where you need to farm resources for cool ass gear or loot? How many times can you be surprised by visuals versus being surprised by gameplay, mechanics, or random situations that happen due to AI fuckery?

No Man's Sky is a bet on people being in awe of very superficial shit. It's like a Star Trek TV show starring a mute lead, with mute extras, and going on adventures that are differentiated by color alone.

"BRO, I went to this planet and there were purple cows with an udder on their back and green nips! The grass was black and the water was toxic and orange."

"You won't believe this shit breh. I went to a giant desert planet that had glass towers, and the sky was a deep brown color that had pink swirls. There were white scorpions and I found a huge amount of iron."

"BEAT THIS BREHS, I found a water planet where the water was white and there were black sharks that could walk on land!"

The internet was a mistake it's nothing but  :trash

Quote
It's toxic masculinity in general and feeling of ineptitude in society because they don't match up with their idea of what masculinity is from media, culture, to how they're raised. The whole alpha and beta nonsense feeds into all of this from egging on a person to commit this to prove their worth as an actual man.

The alphas will say it's the betas but the alphas also sound like their definition of beta with their projecting, irrational self confidence, insecurity, awful behavior and treatment of people, especially women. Believing they are deserving of all things and become fragile at the drop of a hat when someone doubts them or speaks up about a subject.

Feed into an arbitrary af dichotomy coined by internet trolls people.

400 dollars for two seems really extreme, yeah. 50 to 75 euros per person is generally enough to have a fancy full menu and liberal wine drinking at a pretty decent place in Paris. But heh if you have a ton of disposable income, great for you.

It's 400 Canadian Dollars.  The Canadian Dollar is 0.76 to 1 USD so it's more like $300 USD.  It's still expensive but Vancouver is insanely expensive so it's probably $100 everywhere else where they don't gouge the fuck out of you.

Ah yes, CAD, fair point. 135 euros per person is certainly not unheard of, but it means you pretty much go eating at somewhat posh places. More than enough to have a full menu lunch at La Tour d'Argent (A somewhat famous restaurant in Paris with a view on Notre Dame).

I had a dinner at a Michelin rated restaurant and it was about 150€.  The food was amazing but I can't say it was really worth the money.  If Tabris is making a habit out of $400 CAD dinners for his dates, then he's throwing a lot of money away.

Business is another matter and its own subculture. Furthermore wine or spirits can easily inflate a tab. If you're throwing 300 USD at any new dates though, you're either upper class or trying to look the part. Tabris seems to be the latter and well... Looks to be a parvenu >:(

Most people agree that 5's gameplay is top-notch, even if it has flaws (ranking, world building). The backlash for 5 (despite Rah wanting it to be in gameplay, bzzzt. Sorry, not happening) is mostly in the story and the "twist" ending.

MGS4 is just an awful game all around. Too bloated, too overwrought drama. Gameplay mechanics you don't really need to use at all if ever. I don't recall Mass Effect 2 having backlash outside of the action-RPG change. If anything Mass Effect 3 is the one that got backlash and that's from people believing Bioware's "your choices matter" Peter Moly's level "promise."
