Embark is working wonders through The Finals. I came from Destiny 2 and am so glad to have devs that listen to their entire community and put so much effort into their game.
I am excited to see what they do with Arc Raiders!
Dude, I just installed The Force Engine on my Steamdeck, found a good write-up how to do that via the flatpak the project now offers. It’s fantastic, looks so much better and plays very smooth! And since you point it to the current game directory I could even continue my progress from the original game!
I like to spend all day at work thinking about how much fun I’m going to have playing a certain game when I get home.
Then, when I finally make it home and sit down in front of my computer, I’ll “get to it in a minute” for the next 3 to 4 hours until suddenly it’s time to eat and go to bed. Repeat 5 days a week.
At least they added the rematch feature at the end of a battle. I often find myself stuck on a particularly hard fight for many attempts till I get it right.
Even a SATA SSD is gonna cut that down almost as much as an MVMe! I have both types in my machines and basically… as long as it’s not a hard drive hahaha
Decent speed storage and hardware to match, remove all splash screen bullshit and loading vids etc, kill any other pre menu misc they might have, and yeah … ???
Check out Dragonsweeper! It’s a dungeoncrawler twist on minesweeper that also has a 100% determinable layout (once you understand the mechanics/behaviors)
There are a few layers to it. I’ll start with the legit reasons and hope the jackasses don’t read too deep in:
EGS was built around the idea of providing what people need/want rather than EVERYTHING. Some of that was truly asinine (no shopping cart for like 2 years?) and some was a conscious choice based on everyone saying they don’t want their video game store to be a social media network. Unfortunately… people apparently DO want their video game store to be social media.
Every store handles regional pricing and distribution differently and, allegedly, EGS had worse coverage in a few of the countries The Internet actually knows exists.
Tim Sweney is a complete and utter dipshit and always has been and it is REALLY hard to not hate everything he touches.
EGS rapidly entwined itself with Fortnite because Fortnite makes more than the GDP of some small nations. But we are hardcore gamers so we all hate Fortnite.
Sweeney/Epic actually accidentally argued for consumer rights against Apple which, in turn, led to the full force of Apple running smear campaigns against Epic to make sure that we all realized how much we love walled gardens
Sweeney/Epic ALSO kind of picked a fight with Steam by pointing out how little developers get from any given sale. Which… because we all love Valve means that Epic are assholes and developers all actively want to strive to get the negotiating power of a Call of Duty or Rockstar.
Speaking of. EGS isn’t Valve and any alternative is inherently evil because we all love Valve.
So what was a mediocre store with a lot of free games and a tendency to give developers a giant sack of money for one year of exclusivity became The Devil.
Edit used disclaimer incorrectly, should have said something like:
Noteworthy point: I’ve beaten every modern doom on nightmare.
This doom game is such a departure from the doom series that it is just a bad game.
The game can be beaten with a single gun and parry. Every single time I ‘struggled’ it was because I was playing the game to have fun (silly me) and wasn’t spamming shield. Every single encounter ended almost immediately once parry spam was activated.
The final boss literally did not touch me. This game was a really really bad joke.
Edit: I am genuinely convinced there is a fleet of shills portraying this game as good and a lot of old people influencing it. Like, they downgraded the game to a fucking boomer shooter. This game gave me destiny vibes, in that it was a very pretty cake only to find that it was filled with shit.
Edit 2: I forgot the most important part; there isn’t a single difficulty related achievement. I know, because I beat the game on nightmare.
