bblkargonaut, do games w Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 hits 500k sales in one day

I’m 11hrs in so far, and I’m hooked. The world building, gameplay and characters are amazing. I also really loved the music, especially inside the manor.

Pondis,

The soundtrack is incredible! It’s such a wonderful game.

easily3667, do games w The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remaster is real - Eurogamer

But that’s the worst one

It’s in the awkward transition between good game Morrowind and mediocre game Skyrim, with the worst parts of both

Stovetop,

Well…more room for improvement, then?

Having been playing it again recently, it still has a lot of what Morrowind had, and Skyrim doesn’t. Plays like Skyrim, but still has more depth than it. Not a lot more, but still more.

easily3667,

Maybe I should give another chance

echodot, do games w Silent Hill f has been banned in Australia, and no one knows why

If PEGI tried this kind of thing I’m pretty sure the general public would linch them. Fortunately with Steam there can be completely ignored these days anyway.

Good luck banning torrents you crotchety old fuckers.

disgrunty,

Don’t forget to use a VPN so you don’t get traced by copyright lawyers! They often seed torrents in the name of gathering IPs to take action against.

That doesn’t really work in Australia.

AFAIK Dallas Buyers Club was the last major case and the conditions the courts placed on any contact caused the rights holders to decide it wasn’t worth the bother. www.bbc.com/news/business-35547045

The court told them they could buy the infringer’s contact details as a bulk lot that averaged $127 per person. But only if they invoiced for $127 + whatever they were charging for the film. In addition the court would need to review and approve any draft correspondence and call scripts.

All up it feels like the court was taking the most hostile interpretation of the law to protect individuals from being harassed by the business. Good stuff.

deegeese, do games w "There comes a time when we all declare the war is over": Former PlayStation Studios boss Shawn Layden on the future of video game consoles

Can someone make this make sense?

You know the Sony fanbase gets really upset whenever a game comes out on PC

mesamunefire,

Im just not seeing it honestly. Most people just dont care, they only have enough $$ for one major console. And then they go with that console for a while. Its only the diehards that care and that may be who is “complaining”.

DomeGuy,

There is a mythical “Sony fan” customer who pays extra for their video game consoles, and justified that by believing it comes with a right to be special and awesome and play games no one else is allowed to.

It’s a pantomine of a Nintendo fan, who pays for an underpowered console for first-party games that use unique controllers. None of whom would ever complain if their games were sold on PC so long as they could bring the controller over.

AFAIK, the only real people who want exclusives on PlayStation are Sony employees and shareholders.

dogslayeggs,

I know there WERE Sony fans who would get upset that their exclusives would come out on other platforms. Back in the very early 2000s, fanboys would get irate at the smallest perceived slight to their preferred platform. But that hasn’t been more than a very niche thing for a decade. Almost nobody cares now.

umami_wasbi, do games w Rainbow Six Siege X update detailed, as game goes free-to-play on June 10

Anyone knows what happen to operators and skins already owned?

simple,

You’ll keep everything, it’s not a new game but more of an update and moving the game to a new engine, like CS2

jroid8, do games w Moon Studios (Ori, No Rest for the Wicked) goes 'fully independent' in aftermath of Private Division closure

I think Ori IP belongs to Microsoft so this means no more ori games from moon studios

Not that any were planned, pretty sure they’re done with Ori.

OminousOrange, do games w Jackbox Games coming to Smart TVs for free
@OminousOrange@lemmy.ca avatar

I can’t imagine it will be free and actually useable in any form.

Free*

*except you can only play one game in 24 hrs. *you can only play with four people *there is only a small set of prompts available

maniclucky,

Actually, that part I’m not worried about. Jackbox is one of my friends go-to end of party games. It’s all through your phone and accommodates a good amount of people, slightly game dependent.

criitz,

Yeah, but thats for money.

moody,

It’s also entirely possible that you can’t host any of the games. If the host owns the game, anyone else can play for free through a browser. It could just be access to the jackbox.tv website from the TV itself.

nokturne213, do gaming w Pokémon games have become consistently ugly, and it's alright to wish they weren't

The only one I have found ugly has been Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, I feel like I am playing in a fisher price universe.

JackDark, do games w Netflix culls staff at Oxenfree developer Night School Studio

I didn’t realize that Netflix actually bought the studio. I just thought they licensed the game or something.

chuckleslord,

Well, ya see, gotta reduce the number of companies. The less companies, the more the line goes up

DoucheBagMcSwag, (edited ) do games w Nintendo discontinuing Gold Points on the Switch eShop, ahead of Switch 2 release

Nintendo doesn’t need a loyalty program to gain fan favor. They already have that… And that’s putting it nicely without any labels

Woodstock, do games w Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater release date leaks

“As updated on the PSN Store (and shared to ResetEra), the game will release on 28th August this year.”

Rogue, do games w Can a Steam profile be a real memorial for a lost life?

Personally I think nobody gives a fuck about your profile while you’re alive so why does it suddenly have significance when you’re dead.

Grief is a horrible process that we all go through. Cultural norms are to simply ignore it, suppress it and pretend we’ve moved on.

The digital age preserves a far greater record of our lives than ever before. I don’t think that’s necessarily a good thing.

    I wouldn’t say it’s bad, but it’s not great either.

    inclementimmigrant,

    It’s a ‘meh’ game at best.

    FlashMobOfOne,
    @FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world avatar

    It’s not that it’s bad.

    It just doesn’t feel like Dragon Age. It’s like Dragon Age if Disney made a DA game.

    AMillionMonkeys,
    @AMillionMonkeys@lemmy.world avatar

    Veilguard is a 3rd person action RPG, not a CRPG. It plays like God of War or something. It has lots of DA characters and lore, though.

    the major difference with GOW is that you can pause combat at will to strategize and time abilities/combos with your squad.

    Stovetop, do games w Video Game History Foundation's long-awaited digital library will be available online next week

    Hopefully this is a free resource available for all and doesn’t just turn into the games journalism equivalent of JSTOR.
