Etterra, do games w Apple blocks Fortnite's return to iPhone in US

Honestly, I maintain the ancient line of if you’re playing games on Apple you’re doing it wrong. Apple is not a gaming platform. That said, Fortnite sucks so meh.

RaoulDook, do games w Death Stranding 2 preview: how a big dollop of Metal Gear is expanding Kojima's bizarre epic

Norman Reedus and the Funky Feetus 2: Death Gear Boogaloo

More Metal Gear-like sounds awesome. Article mentions equipment customization, more weapons, camo options for stealth etc.

SkunkWorkz,

Well I was hoping it meant indoor sneaking levels like MGS2 and not MGSV gameplay.

Nasan,

Maybe something like sneaking through the bowels of an Arsenal Gear-like BT?

gradual,

Yes, video games in general have stopped caring about interiors because they require “too much thought” on the part of the lazy/incompetent developers.

FreeBooteR69, do games w Valve's invite-only Deadlock has an even more exclusive top-secret hush-hush version

I didn’t like the game, not my kind of play. Glad others love it though.

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

It’s a weird ass game so far. But I only got through the prologue and went back to oblivion. The sound design is atrocious in just the volume mixing. I though stellar blade has a quiet voice overs but damn this game sets a new bar lmao.

I like it though, I’m all for just weird ass stuff that makes no sense, it’s refreshing to see new IPs these days.

Chronographs,

Audio has seemed fine to me, have only need the subs for the characters that aren’t speaking a real language lol

SolidShake,

No I mean volumes. Like the music is insanely loud compared to voice. I had to turn effects and music down to 40%

Chronographs,

Yeah haven’t felt that way idk

JadenSmith,

This sounds like the issue I had a good while ago, before realising something I was using was trying to output as surround sound, whereas I only had stereo speakers (so some sounds seemed normal, some incredibly low).

Just thought of giving that a mention. It may be worth having a look in your game settings, if there is an option to output as Stereo.

SolidShake,

No option for that on the audio section of the game.

JadenSmith,

I installed the game myself and had a look, unfortunately you’re right. My speakers are decent with hearing everything, however I can definitely notice the vocals being considerably lower than the music and such.

There is a way to normalise audio levels from within Windows sound settings, you just have to remember to revert once you’re done playing.
This seems to be a good article about it: pureinfotech.com/normalize-sound-volume-windows-1…

It’s a workaround, but it should help with the game and anything else you’d have this issue with. If you’re using Linux, unfortunately I can’t help. Good luck!

SolidShake,

It’s on console dude lol.

JadenSmith,

Ah fuck. Sorry man, I hope someone can figure it out. It’s a very new game, so hopefully more people take enough notice for a fix to be implemented.

Otherwise, I found an article which seems to allude to advanced volume settings to ‘normalise audio’, on an Xbox, in a similar way: support.xbox.com/…/choosing-speaker-audio-output

If you’re using a Playstation, it may be worth digging around in your system settings. Sometimes the option is referred to as ‘equalise’, ‘dynamic range’, etc.

Hope this helps!

tanisnikana,

Set the music to 75%, and turn up the volume knob on your speakers just a bit. The combat hits should ring out with a startling clarity. Also, easier to parry that way.

SolidShake,

Everything is turned down to 40 except for dialog

Kolanaki, do games w The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remaster is real - Eurogamer
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

I don’t think it would be hard to fake these screenshots. Bethesda shadow dropping a game of this high profile within a week, without ever having officially said anything about it or even replying to media asking about it just seems incredibly unlikely.

psx_crab,

Maybe release isn’t likely, but announcement is. Remember they drop Fallout 4 trailer and then saying it’ll come end of year? Maybe that’s the magic they want to recreate.

Stovetop, do games w Ubisoft reportedly considering fresh business to own Assassin's Creed and other big franchises, co-owned by others like Tencent

Translation: We can’t find a buyer for our failing company, so next we’ll try to prop ourselves up by selling/leasing our IP.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t think they want to sell the company. I think the family that owns the majority of it is doing everything possible to stay in control of the company called Ubisoft, regardless of how many of their IPs they still have left when the dust settles.

lath,

Tencent is supposedly low-key interested in buying something. It’s a rumour though so credibility is unknown.

13igTyme,

Really, tencent is going to buy something? Whoa!

lath,

Etterra, do games w Sony shows off conceptual immersive gaming tech that lets you stand in a TV box and sniff The Last of Us

catloaf,

The sense of smell is very powerful.

mostlikelyaperson,

Headlines. This is literally just a marketing thing, just like every other instance of the tech before it. No one is ever actually going to build this for home use

maniel, do gaming w Sony reportedly prepping PlayStation 5 portable, plans to battle Nintendo's handheld dominance

I’d go with a PS4 based handheld, easier to miniaturize with today’s tech, should have lower TDP etc

thingsiplay,

Microsoft has the Edge here (see what I did?) when it comes to handheld, because they already have a weaker hardware that games on Xbox must be able to run, the Series S. This baseline could be used as a handheld compatibility (at least from performance perspective). Sony on the other hand has a monster console and no weaker version of it. So there is much more and longer to developer. For the coming years, I’m not convinced Sony would be capable of doing that. Also imagine the price it would have.

I don’t think Sony wants a PS4 handheld while Microsoft has the newer generation Series S based handheld. Sony wants to sell new games, not the old one.

lustyargonian, do gaming w Eurogamer: It's been 12 months since Microsoft purchased Activision Blizzard, so what's changed?

Everything that Sony claimed turned out to be true. Games are now exclusive to Xbox, they run worse on PS5, Xbox would get exclusive Call of Duty content and early betas and Xbox is using its market dominance by putting all ABK titles on GamePass.

Oh wait.

NarrativeBear, do games w DF Weekly: Some original Xbox One units failing to update, disabling most console functions
