Anyone played the game "loki" straight from the box? Unplayable lmao

remember when someone patented the concept of having mini-games while it's loading so almost no games have it?
also awesome...

The only games I tend to play these days are the ones that I don't have to update before playing. Such a nuisance to be always online.

I remember when games didn't need updates, they just worked, or the bugs they had were cool (or annoying and required workarounds). Though I guess it makes sense that since games are more complex and larger now, they end up having more bugs and need more updates these days.

I'm glad others have pointed out this is pretty bullshit. If it's a great game then it's good. If the game was buggy you're shit out of luck, stuck with a broken mess with no hope of it being fixed.

What cartridge came Zork on again?

I'm the autist but you single out games to make my statement invalid? Like it wasn't a thing back then that games didn't have a proper save feature haha

I was pissed off when HL2 required installing Steam.

I didn't know that was the least awful variant of this particular affront.

Don't tell me 'but now there's bugfixes!' like I never updated HL1 with bare executables. Fuckin' Doom had multiple relevant versions. They thought 1.666 would nail it down... and then grudgingly released 1.7 a month later.

Updates, yes but almost every game did need to be installed though

You still had to install the game with a disc most times.

Edit: I never owned a console other than the N64. Just pc.
