New Year’s Resolutions for RPG Fans - General Columns
One more year has come and gone and that means it’s time to start looking forward again. Following a season of Best Ofs, where lively debate, cheers, and jeers mark the year’s end, starting over can be like a breath of fresh air. We’re free to set our eyes on all that 2017 has to bring - and as our list of upcoming RPGs proves, there’s a whole lot to look forward to. Today, let’s make some New Year’s resolutions of our own and make the most of the year that’s to be.

Also it is i figure two faced to see an industry always pushing advertising on gamer's,lying or deceiving gamer's,than say "just put a smile on".You also do NOT ever help the game industry that way,a developer would absolutely love it if consumers tell them no matter what garbage they sell it is AWESOME,please sell us more.
Point being,there is REAL world out there not some fantasy one and brains are meant to be abstract,to think that is how we advance or get better as people and how games advance or get better.
Instead what i want to hear is,honesty from all and let's tell developers exactly what is wrong with their game so we can improve it.Problem is that does not sell a finished product,devs cannot do what si always right and websites cannot always tell the truth,so there you have it,we are at a crossroads.
So it leaves gaming and discussion up to the more passionate people,the ones with no vested interest in the games.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

Avoid EA and wait until they are on sale. You'll save money and have a better idea of what you are getting yourself into.

That was my resolution last year and it worked out really well. I avoided most of the games that were bad and got good discounts on the ones that are fun, after a lot of balance patches and fixes were added by waiting a year or two to purchase. Will continue the don't buy pre-order theory this year also.

Kyleran on yours sincerely
'But there are many. You can play them entirely solo, and even offline. Also, you are wrong by default.'
Ikcin in response to yours sincerely debating whether or not single-player offline MMOs exist...
'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless.
It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.
It is just huge resource waste....'
Gdemami absolutely not being an armchair developer
Just behind the web.
From inside it a whole world exists
Five feet from crumblets of bread.
And he's keeping notes.
And he's shaking his head.
he's gotta hashtag Discord
I see it from my bed.
Man he's sure the wizards gonna really be pissed.
By all the names still left on the list..
They've fallen way behind.
Stephen Hawkings last his god damn mind.
They haven't even got their flying cars.
It's time to live on Mars.
Turn on the neon at Lemmy's bar.
And tell Leonard to strike up that cigar.
That's what's going on up there in the stars.
We gonna live on Mars.
You see not long ago they cast a spell
Because they saw that things weren't going well.
Disappearing celebs ever since
Start at the top and then they stop at shit.
So this year I resolve not to be a shit.
And get a new computer to game with more and get rid of this laptop. Also probably produce music.
I find it ironic that the person who could probably learn the most from the "be a little more positive" point is the one railing against it so hard. No one is saying to put your head in the sand. The point is to not be a jerk when you're interacting with others. Not saying you are here, Wiz, but if you read the section, it's pretty clear that you missed or are ignoring what I actually wrote.
