descartador, do gaming w Can we talk about the Roblox situation?

Another quesion is: where is visa, mastercard now? Shouldn’t they stop working with roblox?

EldenLord, do games w First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .

We got GoonerGate before the release of the Epstein files

Welcome to the age of bots.

Enjoy your perpetual unavoidable and even undetectable bias and opinion influencing astroturfing.

Paid for by whoever doesn’t want the things that you want, to influence the people around you to bite at each other’s throats and work against their own interests.

PonyOfWar, do games w Krafton Issue Statement Regarding Subnautica 2

Always good to let this kind of drama develop for a couple weeks before passing any judgement. Not to say I fully believe the publisher’s narrative either. But maybe it’s not the time for grandiose proclamations of a boycott yet.

dragonfucker, do games w The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact

Copyright was invented so artists would be able to sell their art, and more art would be made.

When copyright is protected on a product that’s no longer sold, less art is made.

When a copyright holder stops selling their art, copyright protections should immediately cease, and they should be responsible for copyright obligations - releasing the source code to the public. Use it or lose it!

Omega_Jimes, do games w What's going on with Borderlands 2? Steam is giving it for free, but the game has 23% positive recent reviews.

I just don’t understand anticheat or copy protection on PvE games. I can understand it if you don’t want to play against a cheater, but this is a cooperative shooter.

glimse, do games w Would "suggest price" be a positive option for steam?

I think it’s a terrible idea but please don’t take that as an insult. It would instantly be filled with $1 “bids” and the data would be useless at best. I also feel like if I was a dev, I’d feel pretty bummed about the catalogue of people who think my game isn’t worth buying

irotsoma, do games w Why does the PC gaming industry still use such deceptive pricing?
@irotsoma@lemmy.world avatar

To get sorted to the top of the lists for biggest discount. To claim bigger losses in copyright infringement cases. And to increase the perceived immediacy to buy it to get a good deal to take advantage of impulse buying whereas if they have time to think about it they may not buy it at all. Plus rich people don’t care how much something costs, so you’ll get a few of them here and there buying it at full price.

Wrufieotnak, do gaming w #StopKillingGames Update: Germany becomes 4th county to hit threshold

If you are an EU citizen and agree with the initiative: GO VOTE!

It still needs to reach 1 million votes in total, not only the 7 country thresholds.

Sterile_Technique, do games w Steam Summer Sale - Top Deals
@Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world avatar

Subnautica $29.99 $9.89 (67% off)

Sci-fi survival builder: you’re on a massive spacecraft that ends up crash landing on an ocean planet; your goal is to figure out wtf happened and find a way off the planet. This game is 80% feel-good tropical diving simulator; and 20% thalasaphobic deepsea horror. This has become one of my go-to “idk what to play” games that I keep returning to for a nice digital tropical vacation… with a dash of fleeing in terror from, uh… spoilers. No really though, if you don’t already know this game’s story, DO NOT start looking up videos and posts etc about it - just buy it and dive in.

IWantToFuckSpez, do gaming w Rant: Valve's new Steam Deck screws speak volumes about their ethos.

Yeah what Valve is doing is great. Hopefully they will become more mainstream in the future and become more known with the super casual crowd. Nintendo definitely needs more proper competition in the handheld market.

Also FYI it’s Phillips with double L, Philips with one L is the Dutch electronics company.

fakeman_pretendname, do gaming w What game mechanics do you love and hate?

I hate not being able to pause a game, particularly a single player game. I think Elite Dangerous solidified my hatred of this, by not telling you the game is still running when you’re on the “pause” menu.

“B-B-BU-BUT it’s a simulation and you can’t pause real life so it makes it more real”

It’s a game, even if it’s a simulation game. It’s a toy for grown-ups. A very nice and fun and relaxing toy, but a toy nonetheless. It’s not more important than a phone call, call at the door, crying child, hungry cat, partner who needs a hand with something etc.

This probably extends to being able to save anywhere and rejoin later, but I think that one is covered pretty well by everyone else :)

BroBot9000, do games w GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago
@BroBot9000@lemmy.world avatar

6 is never going to live up to the hype and will be riddled with micro transactions and GaaS shoved up its ass.

Stop paying attention to what the big corporations are pumping out. Go play something made my people that give a shit about the game and not the “potential revenue” it might create.

StrixUralensis, do games w (Rant) Don't buy Rockstar games.
@StrixUralensis@tarte.nuage-libre.fr avatar

Looking at the conversation, you do sound like a hackerkid™ trying to social engineer itself into someones rockstar account

You should give them the info they ask for
Also, the poor indian dude answering you probably doesn't have access to you crew's name in gtav or anything like that.

PonyOfWar, do games w What are the best free mmorpgs for a beginner?

I’d suggest Guild Wars 2. It’s an MMO that can be played quite casually and doesn’t require massive time investment or grinding. It has a fun gameplay loop that encourages free exploration. Collaboration with other players arises freely from gameplay.
