Games are very difficult software to create. The only reason publishers like EA or Ubisoft can get away with pumping theirs out at an rapid (and unhealthy) pace is because they have a massive team

You have to understand that telling other people how brave and cool you are makes them think you’re an idiot though, right?

Some lemmy users really love getting mad xD. Can't believe I thought I would say this but reddit gaming subs are not this bad. Idk if it's just me but It doesn't excite me to check the comments anymore.
