  • Money talks…

    We need more education on math(probability and game theory), sales strategy and involved psychology tricks( FOMO, door in the face, etc), financial/budgeting literacy and planning like you teach how to eat healthy and exercise

    Well, the biggest problem with that is that the some of the biggest users of games that employ those tricks are children or teenagers who are too young to be physically and psychologically mature and to have proper impulse control. Like with games like Fortnight, FIFA Ultimate Team, Itch.io, …

    Ultimately you are excusing profoundly unethical and immoral behavior and pushing the responsability on the potential victims, some of which without the mental faculties to resist.
















  • I’ve played many games this year. The highlighting are:

    • Fallout 3 - I forgot how fun this game is. Especially the exploration;
    • Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings - good game as well;
    • Dead Rising - a truly hard game, that is also fun. Zombies!
    • Dead Space (2008) - still an awesome game!
    • Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - the game is fun with the graphics and Force powers. Even though most boss fights are lame;
    • Silent Hill 2 - still awesome!
    • The Callisto Protocol - pretty good game! Surprised me how good it is;
    • Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 - what a garbage game. Bad boss fights just to pad the game out.
