Why would anyone have that strong a view about what you said…? I’m not clamouring for sequels particularly for those games, though I’d love more games like them. Then again, whatever gets me more beautiful soundtracks from Darren Korb.
Ya know, I told myself when they brought Verdansk back that I wasn’t gonna spend 70 fucking dollars for BO6 just to help level up guns, and even though I was tempted I didn’t do it, even when it was on sale. Shit like this is what reminds me as to why I shouldn’t buy it. Yeah, I’ll play your game because my friends and I enjoy Verdansk, it’s a good map and is fun for us to play, but I’ll be damned if I give them any money for it.
They locked one of the meta assault rifles in a season 1 battle pass (Krig) meaning you literally cannot unlock it and have to buy a weapon bundle to use it. You can pick the gun up off the ground, but not make a loadout with it without spending money. Luckily I’ve earned several of their free CoD points from previous free versions of the battle pass to unlock a bundle for it, but I shouldn’t fucking have to do that.
I’ll just cost them money to host me on thier servers now, until they remove Verdansk again and I’m not gonna play Warzone.
The fact that they aren’t even try to hide it and just overtune the new gun so much and people pay money for it is so disgusting and i don’t even want to waste time on that ptw garbage
honest question. What’s stopping mainstream gamers from just playing the best codblops for the rest of their lives? Is there really any draw to these newer releases every time?
The cod cycle is pretty much the same as fifa games. They make a new game, the hype is big, everyone plays it because the cool streamers play it. Then the hype dies down, people realise it’s the same game, they don’t want to work on the game and they get by with selling micro transactions until the game dies completely just in time for the new game to come out and the cycle repeats. It’s quite fascinating to be honest that it works every time.
I kinda regret getting Blackcell for Season 4. Even with a boost via Blackcell, the battle pass progression is super slow. I’m just not having fun this time around. Always matched against teams of super duper sweats who play like they’ve never touched a blade of grass in their lives.
I agree, but mostly because I dislike roguelikes. They get too repetitive and turn into a slog, and the success of your runs is often entirely dependent on which items you find.
I’d much rather have a tight, concise game with handmade maps. IME, roguelikes just pull the old NES/SNES trick of “well we can’t fit more data on the game cart, so just make the game harder to force players to replay it over and over again. That will artificially inflate the game length.”
Bastion and Transistor don’t need sequels, but I do wish they’d stop with the roguelikes.
Thats really not what roguelikes are. They wouldnt be one of the most popular genres ever if the base was laziness. Its more like being able to focus fully on the mechaincs/gameplay instead of spending countless hours designing worlds that either end up feeling repetitive anyway or you need to spend another few chunks of countless hours to make it feel good.
Besides, Hades is by faaaaaar their most successful game, it would be objectively stupid not to keep going with that at least for a while.
I am emulating! I’ll test multiplayer tonight if I can track down another controller. It might interest you as well to know that I’ve heard the PS3 Emulator can do online multiplayer through its Netplay. I haven’t tested that yet (I want to with a friend though)
Thank you for testing it! Are you using Xenia through a launcher (RetroDeck/Emudeck/Retroarch)? Are you on Windows or Linux? any setup recommendations or should I just put the bios files and rom and it’s ready to go?
I’m using Emudeck on Bazzite with GNOME. It’s an entirely AMD based build.
I was mostly just able to install and go. There were two issues but they’re pretty minor and easy to fix:
I had to go into the launch script for Xenia provided by Emudeck to change the proton version used though because it wasn’t compatible with the base version used. But that may have just been a me thing.
Xenia has a weird quirk with Xbox Arcade games where you need to reopen and close the emulator too. It’s an intentional feature and I’m not really sure why it does that.
But besides those two things it works flawlessly. I have almost no bugs. I added it to Steam with Steam ROM Manager included with Emudeck and will launch it through that (or I’ll launch Minecraft, and then Xenia because of issue 2). Steam Input works fine and no tearing or graphical issues whatsoever.
I just finished testing it and It worked well. I’d assume you could play the entire game that way but I didn’t test it too long (and the controller for player 1 just sat idle) because it was just me playing.
