It’s a fun game with a huge open world, but it’s not a classic per se. It’s just nice to see a dead game running again.

If Ubisoft had done this from the start… But it brought awareness to the topic, so in the end it’s good that they stayed true to their philosophy (of being dicks).

If you have a PC or Laptop there is a good chance you could get it running, the game is pretty “old” and doesn’t scream for a high end gaming rig. Maybe that would be an option.

Fair, but I wanted to play it again and had been living under a rock, who knows who else missed this.

And the deactivation of this game started the StopKillingGames campaign (which stays important regardless), there might be at least of few like me out there.

And I really liked that! In this story I want to add, not irl of course!

Still need a Microsoft account, but that gives many people one more year of breathing space. And who knows, maybe in this year the ridiculous hardware requirements for 11 might fall as well?

I still can’t believe millions of functioning hardware will be destroyed for this shit.

And no, the average computer user won’t switch to Linux, no. Sadly, but it is what it is.

I’ll wait. Experience shows that the next dick move will come soon after.

I have no problem at this point to wait another two or three years.

I liked GTA V, but after finishing it I drove around for a few hours and the never touched it again. I’m not really sure why.

I still go back to Vice City and San Andreas, somehow these worlds are just more fun. But like I said, I’m not sure why…

The graphics in 5 are great, the sound is great, but something is missing…

They so desperately try to turn back time…

My plan was to buy it on release, but the moment I read they would release clans as DLC the game was dead to me.

I’ll check back in a year or two. Maybe then when everything is in one package.

On behalf of many German citizens I apologise for our chancellor and Von der Leyen. I’m so fucking sorry!!!

He’s falling out of a window soon enough.

It took me a long time to learn this: If you are not having fun, just stop. If you still want to know how it ends, read or watch a summary.

Life’s too short to be wasted on mediocrity.

Bobby Ewing turns around on his chair. “Amateurs!!!”

Seriously, you played behind your mom’s back. As did I and everyone else. Be careful, talk to her about the shitty tactics. She has to be aware of them, spot them, and know how they work to be able to avoid them. The hardest part will be for her to actually believe it. Those life service shit uses the most disgusting psychological tricks.

Or she will spent all her money behind your back someday.

We all had our tricks, and children will always be cleverer than their parents.

Gog, it has cloud saves there. Also I should have written a script to copy the save files every twenty minutes or so in the background. Would have saved me after the crash I guess…

Thanks, but that’s what I did the third time after reading about that problem. I guess it was the crash that time that screwed with the auto saves.

God, I hate shit like that! When it makes you wonder if you can quit the game because it’s late for example. Does it save? When did it save last? That’s just asshole design.

I’m playing Prey at the moment, it has quick saves aside of regular manual saving. It’s so comfortable!

I played Control the first time without problems.

The second time my save games got messed up after doing the first mission for the janitor. Seemed my old cloud save games fucked it up. It became a mess.

The third time I deleted every cloud save, and it worked. Then, after ten hours the game crashed. And I lost three missions. And a lot of progress. None of the auto saves fixed it.

Dear Remedy, I have a PC. With a hard drive. I have room for thousands of save games. Let me fucking save my game myself!!

I had good memories of Control, but now my memories consist only of frustration. Why don’t Devs put in a reasonable save system in their games?

Bavaria. Of course. The “Wind turbines destroy the beautiful looks of nature” land.

IDE - The precursor to SATA? I don’t get it…
