I played it and completed the story. In my opinion it’s not awful, but it’s not exactly good either. The gameplay is bland, repetitive and unoriginal. Nothing about it is special in any way and unless you care about the Star Wars license, there is literally zero reason to play it. If you do care about the license the gameplay is serviceable enough to keep you busy while it tells its story, but that’s about it. Which makes it pretty ironic that Ubisoft blames Star Wars for the game’s lack of success.
I won’t mind sommuch, If their games were even remotely worth $80. But they’re not, let’s face it, if it’s a competition between yet another mairo cart and a steam deck plus a few indi and AA titles, it ain’t even a competition. The high cost of the steam deck is offset by the low cost of the games.
I’m not sure steam deck would even be considered “high cost” since you can get a refurbished unit directly from steam for about half the price of a switch 2.
And even a brand new one is still cheaper.
Plus there are parts and instructions available on how to fix and replace pieces yourself should that ever be needed, unlike some drift issues from Nintendo’s controllers where they basically tell you to spend more money or get bent.
I haven’t bought a console since the game cube, and bought a switch for my nephew. When i saw the prices of the games, i was a bit confused. Why is a 8 year old game still full price, why does it have the most disgusting dlc system i have ever seen and so on. I asked that in a nintendo sub Reddit. It wasn’t reddit, but i don’t remember where. People there were insane tbh. They defended their previous nintendo to the death. Their answer to everything was basically: buy the game and dlc and shut the fuck up, it’s worth it.
Yeah but at the same time does people are already tech braindead. Maybe the people that has to go against them it’s not the tech brain dead but the people that care about tech ethics
I believe existing work doesn‘t matter much in Japanese patent law for some reason. You either have patented it or you haven‘t. That‘s what we‘ve been seeing with this lawsuit again and again. Honestly, Pocketpal should consider moving to Singapore or something to avoid this bullshit.
On September 2, the Japanese gaming giant was issued a U.S. patent that covers a somewhat broad implementation of a system for summoning characters into battle. Identified by patent number 12,403,397
Absolutely ridiculous this was even granted. What is the point in the system if people are just going to be allowed to patent general ideas and vague concepts. How about I got patent my idea of a gun game. See you in court every game with guns.
We have got to stop saying "you're surprised?" whenever anyone points out something being morally wrong. They didn't say they were surprised, @DUMBASS (appropriate username, though).
Alright, that was unexpected. To be honest it doesn‘t even make sense. I’m assuming they‘ll lose that patent in trial as quickly as they got it then. How ridiculous.
All good, I’m currently lodging a patent on lodging patents for a system for summoning a character.
See you in court, Nintendo!
P.S.: I’m also lodging a patent for a system of pirating every single game on a Nintendo platform (past, present and future), however I will be opening that one up to the public once granted.
Imaginary murder is also fucked up, but shooter games are still pretty fun. Should we ban all non-educational books and media that portay violence? Cartoon violence nonetheless… Though I will say fuck Nintendo.
Yeah I wasn’t being serious but based on the downvotes I don’t think Lemmy got that.
My intent was actually to fuck over Nintendo with a patent about making your pets fight each other the way they keep gobbling up patents for shit that already exists.
You made a comment that is typically meant with complete seriousness without any indication you were joking. PETA, for example, has an entire anti-Pokemon campaign built on the premise that Pokemon is animal cruelty.
Yeah. I can see it wasn’t clear and then I started trolling people who yelled at me which didn’t help my case.
I should have been more clear, that I was trying to call out the hypocrisy of Nintendo’s lawsuit with Palworld (Pokémon with guns) when their own game could be considered just as immoral by some.
I’m annoyed at companies that would rather sue than compete. Palworld is a different game with different ideas.
