I didn’t know what this was, so after clicking the link:

Summer Games Done Quick

“Games Done Quick is a series of charity video game marathons. These events feature high-level gameplay by speedrunners raising money for charity. Games Done Quick has teamed up with several charities in its nine-year history, including Doctors Without Borders and the Prevent Cancer Foundation. We are currently the largest fundraising event globally for both charities!”

This is single player right? I’d be surprised if they made it live service. It is Ubisoft though so I wouldn’t be surprised if it was grindy with time savers you can buy, or in general a cosmetics shop for real money. Which is dumb.

This is cool, I’m excited to dig into it more.

That’s my point, they can make some money pleasing fans and stewarding their worlds, or they can make the most money creating diamond skinned submarines that run on burritos.

I don’t understand why they didn’t sell a $40 DLC for RDR2 to play the two games on one platform with the terrain mostly done. They have the Audio files. A company where a lot of money isn’t enough, it has to always be the most money (shark cards).

I liked the second game but can totally understand why some wouldn’t. I’d say the first game is a western action game, while the second game is more like a cowboy sim. I find it much more immersive, but much slower paced.

I played D2 at launch and got through the campaign and had a good time. Just like with MMOs, I don’t care about the end game and just want to play the story.

Tried to come back a while later and discovered ‘vaulting’ and haven’t fired it up since. I can’t be the only one.

And yet layoffs have been rampant. It’s never enough money.

I actually liked 2 more than one for the gameplay, but I thought 1 had the by far better atmosphere.

I do hope however, 3 comes out of the gate with more content for end game. I think both struggled a bit at launch and took a while for more content to show up and lost a lot of players because of it.
