hal_5700X, do games w Niantic: Pokémon Go healthy and growing as it approaches its next decade

Okay but we have this article from pokemongohub.net, Pokémon GO’s yearly revenue slumps to 2017’s levels!. So where’s truth?

nevemsenki, do games w Niantic: Pokémon Go healthy and growing as it approaches its next decade

Any game that makes people actually move is good in my book.

MonsiuerPatEBrown, do gaming w GOG adding cloud gaming support via Amazon Luna "soon"

And that was the end of GOG

amazon has repeatedly let competitors use amazon cloud services; and amazon has repeatedly ripped off those competitors ideas stored in cloud services and then shut them down economically

How?

@VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Huh. Didn’t know Luna still exists.

Katana314,

I get the impression Amazon just rightly avoided overselling it and growing too far too fast. I see it advertised for a few specific cases where people don’t own consoles and might try it, but not overblown in showcases the way Google did.

Embracer Group, blink twice if you are in trouble.

[blinks 20 times]

Badeendje, do games w Helldivers 2 has "performed well ahead of expectations" and topped more than 8m sales

Its fun! Running, explosions, bugs to squash…

Oddbin,

Ragdoll hilarity every game too. Great fun.

Mojojojo1993, do games w 700 Ubisoft workers strike in France over failed salary negotiations

Ubi is screwed then

They have 20k employees

Mojojojo1993,

Yeah but their stock is tanking. Just released a game that’s been in the works for 7 years that’s shit.

Claimed it’s aaaa which is just wank and people will refuse to buy their products.

They have negative media attention from yanking online games.

Bad sakes from ac games.

They are a big company and I think they are about to be a lot smaller

MeekerThanBeaker,

I still buy their games… when they are like 80% off. I would’ve maybe bought Skull and Bones new given how much I liked Black Flag, but after the reviews… I’ll wait until a big sale or wait for it to be on GamePass.

Mojojojo1993,

You could try the demo on GeForce now this weekend. That’s where I played it.

Was not aaaa

Did not look like a 2024 game.

Might be fun and sure I’ll buy 80% off.

Bit of 50% playerbase does that. No way that they stay afloat

Kolanaki, do games w From Software is "working hard on Elden Ring DLC" but still doesn't have a release date "at this time"
!deleted6508 avatar

I kinda figured those rumors were bullshit. They may be secretive, but Fromsoft still wouldn’t just quietly release a major dlc for one of the biggest titles they’ve ever made.

Shit must be massive for it to take this long, though, without much news other than a title, and two updates that they are still working on it.

Aielman15, do games w Xbox is still committed to making consoles, says boss Phil Spencer
@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

Okay, but are the users still committed to buying them?

@kratoz29@lemm.ee avatar

I mean, is that a real problem for Microsoft today?

I think Xbox is in its stronger times, so much that I actually want one lol

Aielman15,
@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

Considering that estimates have PS5 outselling XSeries by 2:1 (also confirmed by semi-official data), and XSeries doing worse than its predecessor, I’d say: yes, it’s a very real problem for them.

@kratoz29@lemm.ee avatar

I hope they truly stick with the Xbox brand, it will be bad for all of us to only have Sony with the cake… (I mean we have Nintendo, but they have always been on their own).

Computerchairgeneral, do gaming w The Day Before developer resurfaces to blame failure on "hate campaign"

Sure, it was. That was the big problem when the game launched. And I'm sure all the other claims in the article are equally true.

LEONHART, do games w Rock Band 4 DLC support ends next week, after eight years

I’m fortunate enough to still have my full collection of RB4 instruments functional after all these years, and I frequently bust them out with my wife and my friends when the booze hits just right.

In the announcement they really emphasize that you’ll keep the songs you’ve already bought. What they haven’t clarified is whether you’ll still be able to continue downloading dlc tracks that are already released. Severing that from the playerbase would really suck.

Although they are releasing one final DLC pack before this ends, so who knows?

SatyrSack,

What they haven’t clarified is whether you’ll still be able to continue downloading dlc tracks that are already released.

They are just stopping their weekly DLC release schedule. No reason to think anything is going to happen to current DLC. Just nothing new going forward.

dogslayeggs, do games w Rock Band 4 DLC support ends next week, after eight years

Is this game still playable on modern systems? Can you still buy the peripherals?

EDIT: I searched it myself and found the answer is Yes to modern systems, but No to peripherals. You have to buy overpriced adapters at retail and used equipment on ebay/craigslist.

DebatableRaccoon, do gaming w Rocksteady co-founders have formed new AAA studio Hundred Star Games

Here’s hoping we’ll get the game we deserve instead of the game WB thinks we need

SmoochyPit, do gaming w Is Unreal Engine 5 'too big' for Steam Deck?

Interesting read— basically all games boiled down to running at “720p with 50% internal resolution”; that’s 360p internal resolution, less than the GameCube from 2001.

But, that’s paired with Lumen GI, high resolution textures, FSR2 or Epic’s TSR upscaling and a huge shift in how we render games (deferred rendering, temporal effects, normal mapping, etc). And on a Linux handheld. We came full circle in a way, but what a time to be a gamer!

Plume, do gaming w Activision Blizzard boss Bobby Kotick departs in just a few days

I think it is impossible to properly state how damaging his existence was to gaming as a whole.

I would gladly say good fucking riddance, as if it was a victory, if it weren’t for the fact that he is going away with a fuck ton of money. He didn’t lose anything, he just won. And the whole gaming industry, hell, the whlole world suffers because of it. Because this isn’t just about video gamse. The man is a vile piece of shit. And he just gets to walk away and get away with it. Because money is power. The whole thing is just sickening.
