Swarfega, do gaming w Are there too many video game remakes and remasters?

TLoU2 didn’t need remastering. At least not this soon!

Omegamanthethird,

It seems more like a PS5 Upgrade which it never got before. AFAIK you can even upgrade for $10 if you have the original.

Swarfega,

The original got a PS5 update to 60 FPS. I think what we’re actually seeing is the remaster that will hit the PC. Same routine as the first game which saw a remaster for the PS5, then the PC and eventually the TV series. No doubt this will fall in line for season 2.

Omegamanthethird,

I believe the original is just PS5 enhanced, similar to running it on a PS4 Pro. But it’s still a PS4 game running on the PS5.

I don’t know the ins and outs. But most games like that have an upgrade that makes them into actual PS5 games (like you can only play it through the SSD for example).

SolOrion, do gaming w Starfield's new PC patch delivers the game we should have had at launch

Starfield had a lot of issues, and the mid asf performance was a relatively minor one.

RightHandOfIkaros, do gaming w Konami is looking to employ game creators for "large-scale" Silent Hill projects

Konami really on their way to actively ruin more Silent Hill projects? Konami’s meddling in the development of the SH games after 2 is what turned Team Silent away from Konami, why do they think making another in-house studio that they control is going to be any different?

DrinkyCrow, do gaming w Cities: Skylines 2 dev says it won't release paid DLC until performance "fixed to our standards"

It's paradox. There will be a horde of over priced dlc within a few months, regardless of the games performance or any outstanding issues.

Malibu Stacy can't stand up, her face is mush and the arms aren't attached, but this time she has a new hat!

Of course you don't sell add-ons to a broken toy? Weird that you were even selling it in their first place. I wish companies wouldnt stick so hard to release dates

I think the risk they ran is ending up like Cyberpunk, where they don’t delay long enough to make a difference. What was it…a week or something that they first delayed the launch, and only within a day of the release? To be clear, I agree they should have delayed, but longer, and the delay should have been announced earlier. If they said it were now slated for a Q2 2024 release, and said so back in late September, it might have been a good move. But nope.

Zahille7,

Team Reptile didn’t have a release date for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk until they knew when they wanted to release it. No one knew when it would come out until the release date trailer, about a month before it actually released.

kbal, do gaming w Starfield group fixing Bethesda's bugs say their job is tough as mods feel an afterthought
@kbal@fedia.io avatar

If I had the slightest idea how to write mods I'd probably go ahead and add some space ships to Skyrim instead.

And009,

Without the space it’d be just a ‘ship’

delitomatoes,

A NASA shuttle is still a space ship in the hangar

rivalary,

Oooh, pirates!

kureta,

airships?

And009,

But dragonriding…

XTornado,

I mean there is plenty of space… Not airless space… But plenty of sky or fields to fly that beast.

Plume, do gaming w Digital Foundry - Redfall's 60fps patch works - but this isn't the redemption story we were hoping for

Fuck redemptions anyway. It’s time to make some examples out of some games. I’m sick and tired of games launching as broken and empty pieces of shit, only for them to finally become somewhat playable months or even years later and have the internet call it a “Redemption Arc”. It’s becoming a standard.

I’ve got such a backlog of good games that I haven’t played. Who has any time to play shit ones?

clearleaf, do games w This indie dev (Indie RPG Inkbound) is removing all microtransactions after noting that "player sentiment is trending against" them

It doesn’t matter if a game with microtransactions makes them easier to get or even free. If a game was designed with microtransactions in mind, the game has to be made tedious, grindy, and/or or frustrating completely on purpose to incentivize buying things.

AceFuzzLord, do games w This indie dev (Indie RPG Inkbound) is removing all microtransactions after noting that "player sentiment is trending against" them

Microtransactions in general are the reason I avoid the majority of games like the plague, if you have to purchase the title and it’s on PC. The only exceptions I accept is the one RPG series I play and the spin-off auto chess card game. They have it figured out, at least, that shoving the paid features down your throat is bad for the player.

OutlierBlue, do games w This indie dev (Indie RPG Inkbound) is removing all microtransactions after noting that "player sentiment is trending against" them

I’ve never heard of this game before now, but I really liked Monster Train.

I checked it out and it looks like a lot of fun. With the news they’re removing monetization I picked up a copy.

raydenuni,

I don’t think you’ll regret it. Shiny Shoe knows what they’re doing in terms of design and Inkbound is phenomenal. They’ve been making solid improvements throughout EA.

Chinzon, do gaming w Unity CEO John Riccitiello 'retiring' from company weeks after pricing controversy

Good. Fuck him- I hope he retires from the industry

breadsmasher, do games w Meta Quest 3 review impressions - one of VR gaming's best options

don’t give facebook money. Buy the valve index instead

DaCookeyMonsta,

Tell Valve to not have a wired only option at double the cost then.

PoetSII, do games w Cancelled loot shooter Hyenas allegedly "Sega's biggest budget game ever", new report claims

This was the most “design by trends the CEO’s son saw five years ago” game I’ve ever seen. From day one you could tell it’d be DOA since it would be arriving years late and millions of dollars short, with absolutely zero soul or intent. You could smell the cash shop and sandpaper one-liners from a mile away. I feel for the devs at CA that have been pushed into making this game, and are now facing layoffs for it’s inevitable failure. It’s really time the C-suite started getting consequences for their poor decisions. Let CA make Aliens Isolation already dammit.

MrMcGasion, do games w Eldritch fishing horror Dredge delays Iron Rig paid expansion into 2024

I recently played through Dredge, and enjoyed it so much I went ahead and spent the time to unlock all the achievements. I saw the news of this delay on Steam, and was really glad that pretty much all the comments there were praising the studio for not pushing something incomplete out just to hit a deadline, and encouraging them to take all the time they need.

GrayBackgroundMusic, do gaming w Blizzard veteran Chris Metzen is Warcraft's new executive creative director

I honestly don’t know if this is a good or bad thing. Metzen is charismatic and seems like a nice person, but wasn’t he part of the old guard that oversaw/neglected/enabled the sexual harassment environment?
