tea, do games w "Modding is pretty big" says Baldur's Gate 3 director as over 1m mods are installed in less than 24 hours

Some of the UI mods are really good. Gives what can be a bit of a clunky experience some QOL features and look.

Does anyone have any mod recommendations?

MarcomachtKuchen,

So far the mod selection seems rather shallow but more and more are coming every day

The mystic class seems really cool

Wake me up when the giant breast mods start. That’s when people will truly begin modding

That’s been a thing since before the official mod tools.

bane_killgrind,

Halsin and Astarion would be modest Ds I think

Gale however, F minimum

Canadian_Cabinet,

Look on the main page of Nexus mods. A ton of older mods are being updated for patch 7

Better Hotbar 2 is basically mandatory for casters. The of the Longstrider/Jump aoe mods are convenient. Kay's Hair Extensions and P4 Bangs Everywhere are nice if you really like customizing characters. I don't they've been updated to patch 7 yet, but a lot of the class/subclass mods are worth getting; Cleric Subclasses, Rogues Extra, Hexblade, Artificer. sumradagnoth8 and havsglimt on nexus mods have a bunch. 5e spells is also a must have.

Lojcs, do games w Soulslike Enotria: The Last Song delayed indefinitely on Xbox as dev says it's being ignored by Microsoft

From this march:

Jyamma Games also said it was no longer planning to launch Enotria: The Last Song on Xbox alongside other platforms. This is to ensure “a superior experience for PC and PS5 players,” Jyamma Games CEO Giacomo Greco wrote in a statement on Steam. The exec suggested the studio will reassess an Xbox release once the game has launched elsewhere.

Maybe Xbox didn’t like the second class citizen treatment

intensely_human,

So Microsoft refers to sick size?

If that’s the reason, it doesn’t paint MS in a good light. Bullying small indie devs out of spite. Especially considering that, after saying that in March, Jyamma spent time and money to release the game on Xbox the same day as the other platforms.

But I honestly doubt it. Corporations are NOT people (even if the law would like to pretend otherwise) and they don’t think the same way as people. They don’t play favourites, they don’t play nice or bully others because they feel like to. They chase money, and that’s it. A game releasing on their platform is literally free money. This is just a fuck up on their part. If I had to guess, MS cut jobs and replaced them with AI and left a skeleton crew working on this.

I hope the game plays well. The art direction is truly incredible and I’d love the game to succeed

CeruleanRuin, do gaming w Nintendo officially places Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom outside series' established timeline

Headline is misleading. There is no canon timeline and never has been, regardless of what officially-licensed book it was published in.

The game designers have said many times that they don’t take any sort of timeline into account when designing a new Zelda game. They nail down the mechanics, and the story comes next, and if it happens to match up thematically in relation to another game, that’s just a bonus.

chloyster, (edited )

I mean that’s one way to look at it I suppose. However I don’t think the story being secondary to gameplay means we have to discount what is there available to us. Like if you want to ignore it that’s fine but I don’t think you can say it’s wholesale not canon.

zeldadungeon.net/dont_misinterpret_aonumas_words_…

Edit: also want to say I am not taking this link as gospel, but just showing how the words can be interpreted many ways.

Also the newest timeline is on display at the official Nintendo live event in Sydney, which I would argue is more legit than a licensed book

Regardless it’s not really that important, so if people like the timeline, who cares? Nintendo clearly acknowledges it, and the devs don’t use it when making new games. Both can be true

Kichae,

The canon is anything that appears in the games. There are clear timelines between many of the games, asserted within the game text or game subtext.

Producers have gone on record echoing what’s states in the HH, both before and after it was published.

Do not mistake the canon for something the producers and designers feel in any way bound by. That’s not what the term means when discussing media.

i was honestly bummed when Hyrule Historia came out and codified the timeline, because half of the fun of the series for me was trying to imagine where all these games that didn't quite fit together fit together. that, and the third branch essentially being a what-if and relegating the original games to it felt like a dismissive cop-out. i appreciate how BotW was full of enough contradictory evidence to not be placed in any one timeline and then TotK doubled down by contradicting the original Imprisoning War, and now Nintendo has given up on placing them anywhere. we are so back

thingsiplay,

I know, but its better than messing up everything into one soup that does not fit anymore. Zelda is a long running series and many more will come. So I at least appreciate that they do respect the history and not ruin everything by putting it into one noodle soup. The new Breath of the Wild era games have barely anything to do with the old games and stand on their own.

You know, unlike Disney (Star Wars).

CeruleanRuin,

The people who actually make these games have said that the timeline in Hyrule Historia is little no more than elevated fanfiction, because they don’t follow it when making their games. It’s all retcon and forced connections.

People who want them to have some shared continuity as if they’re a real history might as well make a timeline for Mario too. It’s silly, and misses the point

Yeah but where does BDG place it

Man these guys should try putting more effort into making the game rather than harrassing their employees.

Yeah this marathon reboot extraction shooter is dead. It’s going to lie in developer hell for years…be silently cancelled and Matt McMuscles will give us an expose of “what happened” a few months later

I will be shocked if this “marathon” reboot sees the light of day

helenslunch, do games w Devs should not be "forced to run on a treadmill until their mental or physical health breaks", says publisher of Manor Lords, citing how gamers seem to be trained to expect endless content work now
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

The game is released, for a certain amount of money. If people don’t like what they get for their money, they simply should not buy it.

Except you don’t find out the devs/publishers released a broken game until after you buy it. Which is like, way too common. You can direct your frustrations to the publishers who insist on pushing out broken games and fixing them later.

Carighan,
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah although, within reasonable boundaries this is now on the side of the consumer:

  • Reviews exist and we can wait for them.
  • Even in cases where they intentionally tricked journalists and reviewers by giving them special copies, we got a 2h refund window on Steam and similar services on say GOG nowadays.

Can still be circumvented by shady publishers, sure, but it’s getting more difficult to trick customers slowly.

FlihpFlorp, do gaming w It looks like 2007's surprisingly alright The Sims spin-off MySims is heading to Switch

Man of the my sims game I only played the racing one

I have vague memories but I really only remember the “free roam” areas of the forest and what i wanna say was a beach town

I also remember the game was at like 10 fps so little me was extra terrible at this particular game

Also there was a rocket ship because of course there was

“Surprisingly alright” doesn’t sound like much praise.
