Megaman_EXE, do gaming w Cooperative indie darling RV There Yet cruises past 1.3 million sales [Eurogamer]

I have been enjoying these multiplayer games. They’re pretty silly. Also, I really appreciate that these indie titles have a much lower price point.

Only problem is I don’t have time to enjoy them all. Too many games, too many work hours. It’s like the iron triangle where you gotta pick two but you can’t have all 3

Oooh I feel like that might be a bad idea for valve, but might be good for everyone else. I don’t personally play, but I would assume some of their player base is invested in the gambling. If they feel discouraged, it might be enough for them to stop.

thisbenzingring, do gaming w Would you rather stop playing a game than lower the difficulty? The First Berserker: Khazan devs reckon you would | Eurogamer

i usually go with the default and rarely turn it up. Sometimes I turn it down. Some games are just brutal unless you turn down the difficulty.

Im playing WarTales right now and that game is unforgiving. Fuck your party. Not only are you going to have some deaths but it goes even further that your dead friend is now in your loot… you can even bury them and leave a gravestone which doesn’t go away!

You could always eat them if you take the cannibal trait

kadaverin0, do games w "We approached payment processors because Steam did not respond" - Australian pressure group Collective Shout claims responsibility for Steam and Itch.io NSFW game removal

Theocratic dickheads and the proscription of sexual expression. Name a more classic pairing.

Yes, rape/abuse games are gross gooner bullshit but to paint all adult content with the same brush is just asinine. Huniepop is as much a rape/abuse simulator as it is a racing a game.

Good luck!

mohab, do gaming w Ghost of Yōtei's lo-fi beats mode sums up the very best and very worst of this very weird series

Hmm… I still have zero interest in this game series. They can do whatever they want, but I have zero interest in any western developer's take on Samurai.

It's like when Scorsese did Silence—it's nice he got to live his Kurosawa fantasy, but I have no interest in Eastern culture depicted through a Western lense, even if the source material is Eastern.

I wish they just go back to making Sly. I'd be all over an all new Sly game with fancy gadgets and shit.

I think it’s interesting to see a culture interpreted by another one

Though sometimes it’s a bit cringe if you are familiar with the interpreted culture

knokelmaat,

Metal Gear is one of my favorite series of all time, and that’s an Eastern developer’s take on Western culture. Another series that comes to mind is Resident Evil.

I don’t see why this is necessarily a problem? Ghost of Tsushima already tells a rather loose story that borders on the fantastical, it never even attempts to be a historically correct depiction.

mohab,

I don't see why this is necessarily a problem?

I didn't say it was? I said I have no interest in it.

You and Sucker Punch can do anything y'all want—I can only talk about my preferences.

Metal Gear is one of my favorite series of all time, and that's an Eastern developer's take on Western culture.

Listen, I'm suffering through the drudgery that is Death Stranding's story RN, so last thing I need is for anyone to invoke Kojima in this context 😂 Someone please tell this dude "we don't understand how [insert made up technology] works" is not an excuse for shit writing 😂

knokelmaat,

Fair enough, you’re of course entitled to your interests however you see fit ;).

Death Stranding is a weird one. It has some of the most stupid writing in video games, but also has some really strong themes and moments too. I am talking about the first one as I don’t have the budget to buy the sequel at release prices. But Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, 3 are masterpieces in my opinion, and the strange Eastern interpretation of Western spy / military culture is part of what makes it so interesting to me :)!

chloyster,

DS 2 fucks and I’m all for the weirdness. Shit writing is def a you opinion thing

viral.vegabond,

Alright, I'll bite.

That seems like a really narrow-minded take. It comes off as arrogant, or maybe even prejudiced. Why deprive yourself of an objectively great gaming experience just because of some convoluted ideal that you've made up?

Also, if you really had zero interest, why even comment or be involved in the discussion at all?

RightHandOfIkaros, do games w SAG-AFTRA approves 2025 Video Game Agreement, officially concluding its strike

Well hopefully this means SAGs wanted clause that forced non-union actors to join SAG or leave a project after I think 3 (?) sessions on a job is NOT approved.

People can join a union if they want, but nobody should be forced to join a union against their will.

missingno, do gaming w Nintendo's free Switch 2 upgrades for key Switch 1 titles are remasters in all but name [Digital Foundry]
@missingno@fedia.io avatar

Hoping to see more third-party devs update their games. It's ironic that the worst ports are the ones that benefit the most. Games that were just thrown onto the Switch 1 with no effort to reach acceptable performance suddenly perform well now. As long as the framerate wasn't capped, it might just hit 60 on Switch 2.

But games that were downgraded to properly fit onto the system can't revert those downgrades. Capped framerates remain so, those games need patches to uncap them.

Some of the games I most want to play on Switch 2 are ones that remain stuck at 30fps still...

@theangriestbird@beehaw.org avatar

Capped framerates are so frustrating. Wish they would just use vsync, which would lock to 30 but will jump to 60fps any time the hardware can handle the scene. Maybe it’s not that easy to do in some cases, idk.
