I have no hopes like I had no hopes for Halo. When it comes to games it is more in the territory of prove you don't suck as opposed to I believe you'll be amazing.

Problem with a lot of shows is that they start off strong then get worse and worse as they drag it out as it gets more popular. Kind of felt like it is headed that way with how the last episode ended up feeling like a sitcom of everything just returning back to the status quo with some slight changes to up the stakes, but it really remaining the same. So it did feel like show should be coming to an end soon anyways. Plus, with how dragged out hiatuses between seasons are now days wrapping things up sooner is not something I have issue with.
Only reason I gave it a chance was that the source material was complete and considered well written, and having read it after season 1 I can confirm show should be in good place. Even if it isn't I don't care, since unlike Game of Thrones the source material is actually available.
Pretty good and then it ended on a cliff hanger so I finished it through the book instead of waiting around for 2+ years. Book was very good.
When pay is basically non existent is there a reason to be on spotify? Or is it for "exposure" in hopes of finding new fans.
People this doesn't affect are pirates. People who get to enjoy their media without worry are pirates. When pirates are getting the better experience and it's customers who are getting affected what incentive is there to not pirate other than personal morals. Because it sure isn't for a better product.
Yeah, hate haggling. Never know if it is actually a good deal, and tracking prices and deals is so unreliable compared other goods with the way those have historic price tracking recorded on sites like camelcamelcamel or keepa. Keeps consumers in the dark with only a broad idea of what isn't a scam price and making the experience as exhausting as possible to extract money from them.
Isn't that what sale is with it being sporadic? Retail price is for people who can't wait for sales and need it now.
Not sure how retail price would be used. Permanent price drops are rare for pretty every purchasable good out there beyond digital games with companies saying something is X% off leading to more purchasing with consumers thinking they are getting a deal.
Publishers I believe are also the ones with power to fill the market with Steam keys to then have it priced however they want and including them in bundles that are sometimes less than the price of just the game alone during a sale. Some publishers opt to not make steam keys available at all.
As consumer it's just unusual to see accusations of price fixing, since I can so easily get steam keys for cheaper. And only times I usually go buy direct from Steam these days is if a company doesn't offer steam keys, so the only way to buy a steam copy is through steam. And prices for games feel like they've been so cheap that it's the one thing I have no complaints about.
I enjoyed the first game. Didn't really like the other entries, but the first once did a great job with the soundtrack and a vibe that made things feel nostalgic.
Games like Risk of Rain Returns is selling cheaper than it's ever been on Steam. I use isthereanydeals often to check current and historical pricing before buying a game.
Feel like that is never actually enforced with my frequent use of isthereanydeals to check current and historical pricing before buying a game.
I think I'd have preferred an anime Mad Max.
