Visual Novels be like

Hello, cringe department?

Can I remind you how Halo series worked out for them with the idea of appealing to non-gamers? It's 2026, there are no "non-gamers" who will watch Mass Effect.

Quantum Break is 10 years old now. The game was exceptional but suffered from Xbox attitude:

- Released on Xbox One only and was supposed to be a flagship of new media (Game + TV Series inside the game)
- Moved to PC over a year later into broken then Microsoft Store and with messed up graphics (a lot of effects were forced to be 720p at any output resolution)
- Moved to Steam another year later without any real marketing for the port
- Was mostly purchased at huge discounts on sale (I got it for $3)

Also, the series part was very good but at least on PC there were no controls. One accidental tap on space key and you skip the whole episode 🫡

Facts 🗿

Italian TV channel La7 does it all the time and YouTube (at least before) gave zero fucks: they use videos made by other people (and downloaded by La7 from YouTube without consent), then upload them to copyright system and strike EVERYONE. This time it was NVIDIA.

One of the biggest decentralised NFT crypto "Steam Alternative" Robot Cache (you probably never heard of) is going down. All games (even ones that you kinda own and downloaded) are gone. Users will not be able to play or refund anything.

This is a funny end for the platform promised you true ownership and the ability to sell games you completed. Honestly, it lasted way longer than anyone expected.

Do you remember that Discord tried that crap with funky game store and failed miserably? So, not just crypto bros are doing such crap.
