I swear to the whatever deity one worships that not one of about the past 10 games I've purchased have worked without a hitch out of the box.  It's too the point I can hardly stand it anymore.

 

Start DAI which finally arrived to day, try and enter code for delux edition via Xbox one, get to last step of process, sorry there is some kind of error, try again if that fails post the code on our xbox errorcode help site.

 

Post the code on the error help site....sorry we find no problem with that code post the code and the problem below so it goes on our web forums.  Post the problem......sorry you have not signed into your ms account please do so  (look for username and password for 15 minutes)

 

Find it, I am now logged in post to the web forums.....hit submit.....sorry there is some kind of error please post again later.

 

(All this aside from the 2 or three totally idiotic things they fail to mention to you on DAI load and start up.)

 

This will 100% for certian be the last delux edition of anything I buy again, put the damn content in the game disk I bought not in some stupid code that you just know will be rejected.

 

Time for bed.

Can you people here please stop spelling disco wrong? Kthxbai

 

Ftfy.

 

 

As for the topic, in all fairness, games have also become magnitudes more complex, though yeah, lately some game releases have been disastrous.

Remember the last time you could buy a Total War game and play against a functional AI within six months of release? Neither do I.

"AAA" games are nothing but a scam. They charge the consumer 60 dollars to beta test their product... LOL 

 

 

In NO other consumer based product or medium does this happen. 

 

Imagine, buying a Blu-Ray, and then halfway through the movie the disc (with a c.... see hehehe) reads unplayable and you must wait and download further patches in the weeks and months to come......

 

Or..... Buying a novel and then the middle part is missing or unreadable, then the author tells you- *Wait for further patches in the months to come! But thanks for the cash grab, hehehe*

 

It's hyperbole at it's precipice. 

 

The game industry is defined by the AAA titles, thus.... The game industry is a joke and a scam, and until things change it will never be taken seriously like Film, Art, or Novels. Never. 

 

 

JOKE. 

 

 

But...... a 30 billion dollar per year joke... So.......

 

 

 

 "AAA" Publishers and Devs be like-

Seriously Recon, were you born this casual or did you have to work at it?

You spelled Okay, thanks, bye far worse than I mispelled Disc/k

DRM is the worst sh!t that have happened to gaming, not only that but the amount of unfinished games rushed out in the last few years is staggering as well but i agree with the 3rd poster above me, bless GoG        .

 

Just stay far away from AAA games you people will be fine.

 

I still have my physical copies of Grim Fandango, Ultima VII,Planescape Torment and  D 1&2 ah those where the days.

[In Exile]

I remember the days that games were a complex nightmare to get working, often getting borked when you didn't have the proper drivers and otherwise creating lots of compatibility issues. 

[Jock Cranley]

Yeah, devs today are FAR too dependant on patches. With games' complexity today nothing is ever gonna better 100%, but that's not an excuse to release all this broke stuff.

Dragon Age Inquisition wasn't so bad. Within 15 minutes I had the whole entire game installed on my PS4 Hard drive, the day 1 patch downloaded and all the deluxe edition DLC.

The 15 GB day 1 patch for Halo: Masterchief Collection was brutal.

Assassins Creed Unity's day 1 patch took about 3 hours to download.

Lords of the Fallen had a day 1 patch that was somewhere around about 4-5GB, I hAd to leave my console on all night before I finished downloading that.

Destiny also had a hefty day 1 patch, took me about 4 or so hours to download that.

I do miss plug and play gaming. Being able to open up a brand new game, insert inning into your console for the very first time and being able to play it immediately.

The very first computer game I played had to be installed with punch cards (Colossal Cave Adventure).

The second one was a copyright infringer and had to be installed with paper punch tape. (Star Trek).

Things have actually gotten better.

Back when I didn't own my own PC, but Amiga, games were on these:

 

I still have a few diskettes around. They're antique!

Remember the floppy days?
