Watching Activision burn is great. What a shit company with shit ideas. No wonder another dumpster company like Microsoft wanted it. Shit sticks together.

Looks like a skin from Cruelty Squad. john-cruelty

@Fallstar 60 buck skin? What the actual hell? Have some self respect. Play something else

Fallstar,

Yeah, it is wild.

But people are free to spend money on whatever they like.

I waste plenty of money of Nerf blasters LOL.

This site has the most infuriating privacy popup I have ever seen, theres a tab for 1400 partner consents. Like what?

neutron,

Malicious compliance mixed with “let’s see you click all that shit”. I don’t think the devs wanted to implement this…

Mkengine,

Have you tried Consentomatic? It usually takes care of those and deactivates them automatically.

DrRatso,

I actually opened it in safari just to see, but it did not seem like it managed to, at least on iOS.

Mkengine,

I don’t know how many people are behind this, but I think they implement the consent frameworks manually, so if it doesn’t work you can report the website in the extension and help other people in the future with your contribution!

Wtf, happened to CoD? Such a hello kitty show.

SlacksMcTavish,

Things went out the window for me when Niki Minaj killed Messi with a neon green sub-machinegun. You’d think that would be a great game, but it’s a bit too much for my likings.

Sylvartas,

They usually get it right when they do “tacticool” stuff too. But this shit feels like they’re trying way too hard to appeal to the Fortnite crowd

Schmuppes,

I haven’t played any CoD games since maybe 2010 and thought you were being silly. Holy fucking shit.

BruceTwarzen,

I never really agreed when people said that they want their super realistic call of duty, but this really is just absurd. Even if these skins were free is would be obnoxious. At this point you can only blame the poeple who buy that garbage

Rubanski,

Lol I thought you were joking. There’s actually a Niki Minaj skin in the game, holy fuck haha

Zahille7,

And you’re not talking about Fortnite, correct?

verysoft,

People love it and spend $20+ on these skins over and over again.

Don’t worry they will release a $70 upgrade that tones it down soon.

fluckx,

You mean the season pass? Great! Everybody knows games suck if you can’t pay 70$ for seasonal cosmetics every 3 months

xubu,

Probably a 200 GB download too.

DingoBilly, do games w Baldur’s Gate 3 player finds “rarest” ending where characters are dogs and cats - Dexerto

God I wish the endings were as clever as this bug.

In reality the ending is pretty mediocre, and for some endings it’s literally just a few lines of dialogue and that’s it. Massive letdown.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA,
@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

I’m trying to remember an ending that wasn’t.

Am I missing something? Theres only text and a screenshot. Why is everyone arguing? You can’t even watch it.

gaael, do gaming w Last Epoch could be new home for Diablo 4 players after content drought - Dexerto

Looks like a nice ARPG, but it seems to integrate an “always online” bullshit requirement, can someone who actually has it confirm or rectify ?

Nia, (edited )

I don’t have it but I’ve seen admin/dev comments on this, with 1.0 release they plan to add offline singleplayer, and currently online is required on character select/launch, but losing internet connection during play will not kick you out or interrupt it.

I’m keeping my eye on it and will probably pick it up when offline singleplayer is added, but that being included is the deciding factor on if I’ll get it or not myself, since it’s just a promise for now and those can be broken.

Edit: apparently its already added according to other replies

Have you played Grim Dawn?

bob_lemon,

Grim Dawn has one major issue IMO: it overuses passives and semi-passive abilities. When I play an action RPG, I want to actively push different buttons to do different things instead of optimizing my primary attack to do a bit of everything.

marco,
@marco@beehaw.org avatar

I just tried LE for the first time and there are a lot of similarities to GD. Cannot talk to the passives yet, obviously :)

How about Titan Quest?

gaael,

Indeed I have, why ?

marco,
@marco@beehaw.org avatar

Just cause it’s a Diablo type game I enjoy that does not need online :)

marco,

gaael,

Thanks !

Funny thing: on your screenshot, it looks like the Play Offline button is greyed out. But it’s just a visual thing and you can totally click on it, right ?

russjr08,
@russjr08@outpost.zeuslink.net avatar

Yes, I’m pretty sure its just because if you hit enter on that screen, it assumes and selects the Play Online button.

Play Online is actually a relatively newish feature as far as I understand. Multiplayer only came around earlier this year, before then your save was only offline.

marco,
@marco@beehaw.org avatar

Actually both buttons take you to the same character selection screen, just with either the Online or Offline character list preselected ;)

“this player finds rare ending of the game”

describes ending

People who read about the ending of the game: BRO YOU GAVE SPOILERS FOR THE ENDING, WHAT THE FUCK! surprised pikachu

harmonea, do games w Baldur’s Gate 3 player finds “rarest” ending where characters are dogs and cats - Dexerto
@harmonea@kbin.social avatar

Everyone's malding over spoilers and not realizing this isn't an actual ending that's coded into the game, it's just a funny side effect of a spell that malfunctioned during the end boss.

CarlsIII,

They could have clarified that in the headline

harmonea,
@harmonea@kbin.social avatar

But then they wouldn't get so many clicks and reactions.

CarlsIII,

The people upset that they may have had the most secret ending spoiled for them in a headline aren’t going to click on that.

harmonea,
@harmonea@kbin.social avatar

People can also apply the slightest semblance of critical thinking and realize most gaming journalism outfits, no matter their questionable quality, will realize they won't last long if there are true spoilers in the titles. Therefore this isn't really a spoiler.

Like they're obviously going to phrase things in ways that get more engagement, which is why it's a crucial skill on the internet today that readers need to think critically and not just accept headlines literally.

I'm not saying it's right, but jfc man, you have to develop skills to engage with the internet you have, not the internet you wish you had. I really feel no sympathy for people who thought this was a spoiler. At least this is a cheap lesson in gullibility instead of a costly one.

Nepenthe,
@Nepenthe@kbin.social avatar

If I understand, the argument is that someone who doesn't want to be spoiled for endings should...look at a headline purported to be specifically about endings, and then read the article to see if it's about endings, which they are not going to do because there is an extraordinarily high chance it's exactly what it says it is in big letters, and any failure to voluntarily read spoilers they don't want to be spoiled for is then a failure on the part of the player?

That feels like reaching. Would rather not be mean. I think people stranded on top of zombie infested buildings whose only method of escape is a single in-use helicopter have reached less.

This is just a justification to brush off anyone who opens their mouth at all, because were there a reader who did for some reason want to click on every headline they didn't want to know about in order to make sure they shouldn't have clicked on it, that would definitely still be something that is their fault once they saw anything they shouldn't.

Even leaving aside why someone would do that, the OP made the conscious decision to post it like they did.

They could have tipped everyone off to the clickbait. They could have used a spoiler tag if they didn't bother reading it or wanted to play into the clickbait. They chose to do neither. That has nothing to do with the journalistic integrity of online gaming mags. This was a personal mistake.

I have seen communities be shockingly good about respecting this. The Hades community especially is amazing and, though the game has been out now for so many years the sequel is nearing completion, they'd probably still just give you what bare advice they have to based on your current status and tell you to keep playing because "trust me."

I don't know why the bg3 community wants to pretend it's impossible and out of their hands, while swearing it shouldn't matter anyway. It very well is, and for a game this stunning, it absolutely does.

mateomaui,

I think it was implied by “rarest” being in quotes.

edit: at least, I knew immediately it was no such thing because of that, like every other time someone says something while doing air quotes with their fingers.

    if it had actually been the rarest anything, they probably wouldn’t have used quotes.

    edit:

    That’s a matter of interpretation I suppose, and you’ll have to ask the person who wrote the article, I don’t speak for them.

    The first line of the article literally says it’s a joke.

    None of this is the end of the world.

    Chailles,
    @Chailles@lemmy.world avatar

    It’s literally described in the very first sentence:

    A Baldur’s Gate 3 player joked that their fiancée may have found the rarest possible ending for the game when Wild Magic turned everyone into dogs and cats for the final cutscenes.

    Miclux, do games w Baldur’s Gate 3 player finds “rarest” ending where characters are dogs and cats - Dexerto

    Thanks for the fucking spoiler.

    starman2112,
    @starman2112@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Not really a spoiler. If you proc a wild magic surge on the last turn in the last fight, and it polymorphs your party into cats and dogs, they don’t depolymorph in the end cutscenes. It’s not a real ending, just a funny bug

    ghostdoggtv,

    Head canon and you won’t convince me otherwise

    CaptPretentious,

    Reads only title. Makes assumptions. Bitches about something they didn’t read.

    I think you want www.reddit.com or www.twitter.com

    Miclux,

    Don’t be a cunt. Thank you.
