Oczywiście, bo w rzeczywistości Polacy, Ukraińcy i Białorusini byli kiedyś jednym narodem. Znalazłam nawet na mapach Ukrainy jednogłowego orła na czerwono-białym tle z napisem “Ukraina Kozacka”. Musimy zrozumieć, że historię piszą nasi wrogowie i będziemy musieli ją przepisywać przez kilka kolejnych stuleci…

It’s the spiritual successor to Fallout New Vegas, but set in a Space Colony instead of a post-apocalyptic colony.

It is very much not that. But it is better than FO4, and made by Obsidian.

Any indication on what the armor perk is?

@InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world avatar

I find the pod optimization to be a bit more so so now a days. It saves from calling a resupply at the start, but many of the new maps are urban and have more goodies lying around.

still very solid tho

bitjunkie,

Oooh I picked up Dredge in some Steam sale of yore, need to check it out.

The Outer Worlds is fucking phenomenal, dude. It’s pretty much exactly what I was hoping for when I heard the New Vegas studio was making a space game.

@Doodleschmit@lemmy.world avatar

If I recall correctly it sorta changes over the course of the games. I think DS1 was primarily focused on character level, or souls spent on levels, while DS2 had a separate tracking system based on how many souls you have collected in total. Can’t speak too much on DS3 though.

For DS1 and DS2 at least, you definitely can climb those ranks to the point it’s difficult to find someone else that’s online and in your bracket, yeah.

Goodeye8,

I haven't read the new TOS but if this review is correct it looks like a GDPR nightmare for them. Good luck to them explaining why they need to collect all that personal data.

raltoid,

The “collected data types” in that comment seems to be copy/pasted from the privacy policy

www.take2games.com/privacy/en-US/

avattar,

That might be US only, where the companies have freedom to get all the customer’s data and do with it as they will.

echodot,

The list where this doesn’t apply seems to basically be every country with consumer protection laws.

They obviously know this won’t fly pretty much anywhere other than the US so that’s all they’re trying to push.

Most people don’t care about privacy.

Most people in the western civilized world are on Facebook, so…

blind3rdeye,

but ask those same people whether facebook should be allowed to collect and use all that data, and people will generally say ‘no’.

LainTrain,

Sad truth, but it’s no excuse.

Vinstaal0,

Do we know this is a thing in the EU?

Peter_Arbeitsloser,

I just read the german version and compared them a little. (www.take2games.com/privacy/de/) Its about the same. But ist also reads fairly normal like any other privacy policy. I also think its in line with EU law. The collected data always relates to whatever TakeTwo service you use and whatever data you provide voluntarily or technically by using it. Thats fine by EU law.

moon,

Due to Steam’s tos updates a few months ago, isn’t take-two opening itself up to a massive lawsuit?

SaharaMaleikuhm,

No idea, but I think it would be funny, so I’m all for it and hope you are right.

Hm… Ok. Thats crazy. Someone wants to create a new branch of income it seems.

Thats a fucking shame. Now I need to reconsider my plans to buy Borderlands4.

But how will they do it? Which information is gathered from which source? Most of my accounts only hold as little informations as possible. Also my Os knows nothing about me. My MS account neither.

On the other hand my steam 2FA need some mobile information.

Fiivemacs,

topherclay,

oh cool, I can see that it’s similar Borderlands by the screenshots, and I can see that it’s like Star Citizen because it’s not actually released yet and they’re taking money for early access.

Dagamant,

Unless you use Linux, your OS knows a ton about you. On top of that, with root access to your computer they can do whatever they want and if their system gets hacked you become a member of a bot farm or crypto mine.

Nephalis,

Well I use Linux, but not on my gaming pc. I would switch to it because its all amd, but I don’t want to because it lacks the driver suite for my gpu (adrenaline) and I don’t want to install a bunch of small applications to gain a small fraction of options it offers.

It’s a pitty. Because I realy want to ditch windows since its newest iteration.

Yermaw, do games w What are you all looking forward to at Summer Games Fest?

Fable 4 if it’s getting a mention. It’s the only game I’m actually excited for any more.

The only games I truly enjoyed these days have been unexpected indie hits that are impossible to predict, you don’t know theyre coming or good until they happen.

I don’t know why Fable is immune to my thickening shield of apathy, but basically every other game I see I just think “yeah it looks pretty but I’m pretty sure I played it 20 times before”

echodot,

Now try Starfield.

You’ll find it so shallow that Fallout 4 seems like the Mariana Trench.

ISOmorph,
@ISOmorph@feddit.org avatar

Hard disagree in my case. But that might be because it’s a new IP. When I play Fallout 4 I can’t stop myself of thinking what was and could have been. I obviously don’t have that with Starfield and found it much more enjoyable

EccTM,

I found Fallout 4 had good gameplay, but the main questline didn’t connect with me at all. I’m currently playing through Starfield at the moment, have like 220 hours playtime, I honestly wish I wasn’t finding it so boring but it’s easily the most bland Bethesda game I’ve ever played.

The story writing seems kinda half-arsed, but my main issue with Starfield is in the environments. Every location feels the same, and the planets are all just barren deserts with a random base and two caves plopped on it. At least Fallout 4’s environment felt hand-crafted, and not just like they rolled three dice.

What part of it do you connect with most?

ISOmorph,
@ISOmorph@feddit.org avatar

I thought the main story was pretty enjoyable tbh. I can still remember some side quests really vividly as well, which is a good sign. The batman nod for example, or the 0 g casino. There was a lot of copy and paste, agreed, but the gunplay was fun so I didn’t mind that much. Also I spent hours on ship creation, thatwas cool

EccTM,

every time I got lost in the ship builder, I’d spend an hour on some crazy design, be a piece away from saving it, and the game would just lock up and stop responding to input. Only ever happened in ship builder. I lost like 4 hours to that flippin’ bug!

xylol,

I like them both, to me starfield just feels like a newer fallout 4, but I also like space and the guns, but at the same time after playing oblivion a ton in highschool all bethesda games just feel like the same thing with a bit less. at least with fallout and starfield you could build up bases and stuff, ive actually been replaying oblivion remastered a ton since I havent really gamed in a long time just because its so familiar but new at the same time after all these years

Kusimulkku, do gaming w (SPOILERS) Bethesda is shit - Fallout 4 (2015) Impressions

It was fun building bases and exploring but the main quest was mad boring. Didn’t do almost any of that. Also the base building got boring after you learn how they just spawn groups of enemies and sometimes even inside your goddamn base.

@TheObviousSolution@lemm.ee avatar

So 50% score loss because of a permissive EULA, got it …

I’ll just leave this in the “Pitchforks against Pitchford” and “Woke, must hate” folder. Call me back when they do actually include a rootkit in their games instead of jumping the gun because loud feelings say loud things. If only there was some way to get statistics of the people getting outraged because of posts in a subreddit community and the people who don’t have a problem with rootkits installed by their favorite MMOs.

MonkRome,

Let’s try this logic on other things. Their EULA says they can cut off a finger whenever they want. They haven’t cut off my finger for my purchase of this game, call me back when they cut it off.

If you’re someone that doesn’t want companies to have root level access to your computer, waiting until it happens is silly when they’re telling you it’s gonna happen. It is every reason to complain and be concerned.

sugar_in_your_tea,

It’s probably a common EULA for all games, so they probably added it to carify the terms for some other game that includes it.

TheObviousSolution, (edited )
@TheObviousSolution@lemm.ee avatar

No offense, but have you ever read EULAs? Even Windows EULA has a lot of “cut off a finger” provisions. It’s invasive, and people are right to complain. People might cry Linux, but when their job requires them to use Windows and abide by that EULA, most will crumble.

Like it or not, most EULAs are legally binding bullshit that more often than not has to be ignored or bypassed outside of it if necessary. How many people are watching YouTube and ignoring their Terms of Service while using adblockers?

This is nothing new in the world of gaming, and to the scale of affecting over 50% of the score of a game for a provision that is often included in other games they have no problem with is what’s revealing. A lot of MMOs and many multiplayer games do, but people haven’t cried wolf outside of a minority of their community. Pitchford has given his explanation, that it is a matter of the 2K EULA Gearbox has to adopt.

Let’s try this logic on other things. Are all 2K games that have this in their newly updated EULA’s being boycotted? Hint: Civilization is a 2K game.

Some things are just obvious when your head is not stuck inside the ass of a circlejerk bandwagon. It’s just sad that some people aren’t honest with themselves and and are not willing to recognize how easily they are influenced by people who are holding hidden grudges. Too many games are getting shit on because of this, and I say this as someone who is not looking forward to the next Borderlands game until the discounts drop it well below its 80 dollar price tag several years from now while plenty of loud people in this thread will go out to buy it on day one.

MonkRome,

I agree they should expand their review protest to all games in the catalog and not selectively review bomb. Consumers have every reason to impact products success through their purchasing power and reviews. I stopped giving my money to game companies I don’t like a decade ago. It means missing some games, but there is so much out there it hardly matters. I don’t give a shit about this specific controversy, but I do think people have every reason to use their bully pulpit to attempt to impact consumer habits and therefore at least attempt change, even if they are often unsuccessful.

gamermanh,

I’ll just leave this in the “Pitchforks against Pitchford” and “Woke, must hate” folder.

So you’re an idiot?

Hey buddy, you used a microaggression. You shouldn’t say “he/she”, you should say “they” instead.

cepelinas,

They used the grammatically correct version, they is plural and while I am not against it your point is still wrong.

MummysLittleBloodSlut,

My favourite dictionary is Merriam-Webster, what’s yours?

merriam-webster.com/…/singular-nonbinary-they

cepelinas,

In English class they is a plural pronoun he, she, it are singular and how is using a traditionally singular pronoun microaggression I am not against trans people but wth?

teft,
@teft@lemmy.world avatar

“Can you see that person in the distance?”
“I can but i don’t know who they are.”

“Each person must file their own paperwork.”

Singular they.

Most people are taught this in grade school.

cepelinas,

👍

Pipster,

Singular they is not a new concept designed to appeal to the “woke crowd”. I was very much taught in school to use singular they, it was always something used when the gender of the subject was unknown and often even if it is known but unimportant. It has been part of the English language for a long time.

cepelinas,

I am sorry that my comment appeared trans phobic but I still do not get how is a person using he/she instead of they is micro aggression.

MummysLittleBloodSlut,

Some video game bosses aren’t hes or shes. Some are theys and some are its.

Pipster,

It somewhat invalidates non-binary people by not including them. Grammatically it isn’t necessary (and as an aside is unnecessarily clunky, 6 chrs vs 4) so by using it instead of singular they, it can be seen as exclusionary.

cepelinas,

👍

Empricorn,

Yet somehow not as aggressive as your comment.
