rayquetzalcoatl, 2 miesiące temu do gaming w You'll have to pay for a $20 DLC to unlock two out of six clans in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2.

Haha, nice. But people always pay it so this sort of thing will keep happening, as it has for a decade or more now 🤷‍♂️

In their defence, and I hope, in the case of the first game, each clan was an entire new storyline and it was awesome. I might buy it, if the base game is on special in 2 years for 30$ and the DLC is 10$ on special

jarfil, 3 miesiące temu do gaming w Would you rather stop playing a game than lower the difficulty? The First Berserker: Khazan devs reckon you would | Eurogamer

Not a matter of “dignity”, but for me it depends:

• If I’m really interested in a game, and the difficulty proves to be too high from the beginning, or can be changed at any time… then I would try a lower setting.
• If I had already invested some time into playing it, and the difficulty proved to be too high… then I would rather abandon the game rather than start from scratch with a lower setting.

Chances are though, that changing the difficulty after some time playing, would feel like a total nerf, and I would abandon it anyways.

Same way I feel about non-cosmetic purchases. I made the mistake of falling for some back in the day, and shortly after abandoned the games… because they felt much less like a challenge, and too much like a pointless money grab. My current limit on micro-transactions is either fewer than 3, or $1.

I usually set it to the hardest difficulty mode unless it’s really asinine like iron man or turning off the ui etc. Usually the challenge adds to the enjoyment if it’s done right so if I’m having trouble I’d rather just come back to it another time when I have more energy to throw at it or whatever.

Maybe, just maybe, Steam stops spamming me with low-effort-porn-slop game recommendations.

I’ve never gotten those reca because I don’t look for them.

I guess they are about to make John Romero their bitch now.

Jokes aside, it is sad to see all the cuts going on right now, especially since I think they’re stupid, shortsighted and misguided.

There are probably more remakes/remasters that do use AI upscaling for background assets than those that don’t.

I’ll admit I’m very pessimistic they will continue the upwards trend but with the remakes/reboots/sequels due (hopefully) later this year I hope they do.

Looks promising, and seems to be OK enough on the deck.

NotKyloRen, 4 miesiące temu do games w MindsEye studio execs depart Build a Rocket Boy, one week before game's debut

I remember getting ads for this months ago on social media. I was like, “Why is the guy from Mafia 3 in this?” Fast forward to now, and my understanding is that the game is simply a series of scripted sequences (“missions”) made in a Fortnite/Roblox-like platform called “Everything”.

It sounds like the game is just that, with FMV’s?

Katana314, 5 miesięcy temu do games w MindsEye studio execs depart Build a Rocket Boy, one week before game's debut

Maybe I’m a simp for IOI, but the CEO’s allegations that the game might be getting paid-off negative press makes me curious. There have definitely been games in history that I’ve seen overwhelming negative reactions to from the internet, I tried them out and…they’re actually really fun. Sometimes it just feels simpler to join the bandwagon without trying a game out, not knowing a good 60% of that bandwagon might be paid trolls. I’ve always hated vague statements like “The game was released unfinished” or shit regarding paid extra content.

Anyway, all that is just my opinion that I’m going to wait and see, at the very least.
