    Maybe I’m a bit of a luddite but many of those “outdated” games have far better gameplay and stories than games today.

    Yes, good games exist today, that doesn’t mean lots of games aren’t also terrible live service cash grabs.

    I am doing. What you’re saying is a non statement given the context of the discussion.

    Lol okay buddy, have yourself a nice day.

    Goronmon,

    Yes, good games exist today, that doesn’t mean lots of games aren’t also terrible live service cash grabs.

    So, just like older games?

    I’m interested in this period of time where all video games were good and no greed was involved.

    Kushan,
    @Kushan@lemmy.world avatar

    Please highlight where I said all video games were good at a period of time.

    Goronmon,

    You said that modern games were terrible cash grabs, which it’s different from how games “used to be”. So I’m interested in which period of time “used to be” actually encompasses.

    I said:

    You seem intent on putting words in my mouth.

    RGB3x3,

    It’s not the already released games they’re excited about. It’s the IP ownership. Why create something new when you can recycle old ideas for cheaper?

    Buggywhip salesman demands accomodation from the horseless carriage industry.

    Yes, I’m upset at the licenseification of the gaming industry as much as the next guy but that died long before physical media did. As long as a game can die without its first-party servers, games are leased and not owned.

    nosurprises, (edited ) do gaming w GameStop Boss Says Disc Drives Should Be Required On Game Consoles

    I agree. If they ban you by mistake (which happens), it can be very hard and even impossible to appeal successfully. There were many stories about that. No one guarantees that your story will gain traction and attention, forcing the company to help you in order to avoid loss of reputation. With physical copies you don’t lose your library at least.

    Affidavit, do games w Starfield Is Bethesda's Lowest-Rated Game On Steam

    Game is kind of ‘meh’ at the moment. I paid more for this game than any other in my life, yet I am disappointed in what it’s achieved.

    The outpost mechanic is completely and utterly pointless, inventory management is a disgrace, questlines are forced and inflexible.

    I will revisit in 6 months or so in the hope that modders finish making the game that Bethesda started. I have learnt my lesson to not buy a Bethesda game straight away though.

    Astroturfed,

    I waited for the reviews, and decided if I play it it will be a pirated copy…

    chatokun,

    I forgot I was paying for game pass, so that’s why I’m playing it now. I’m having some fun, but the revisit when mods finish feels pretty true. I only have one loaded atm, but definitely considering some others.

    neokabuto,

    The outpost mechanic is completely and utterly pointless

    I’d say it’s worse than pointless. The only reason I can see to use it (outside of XP farming) is to make the grind for research/crafting easier, but it even fails at that since you can buy/loot any resources you need for less than it takes to set up the outposts. It can’t even make one of the other half-baked systems less of a pain to deal with.

    That’s just Steam. Perhaps it’s being held in higher esteem by the Playstation communi… oh wait.

    Here I am at 2 months of attempting Shadow of the Erdtree final boss. I do it once or twice per week now, got incredibly close dozens of times (past meteor). Refusing to switch my weird ass incantations based build. Bayle was a complete pushover compared to this guy.

    This is easily their best game post morrowind, in both story and gameplay, but I’m also not playing it anymore since it’s so cpu heavy that it’s forcing me to wait for fan patches or something; and I’m playing Cyberpunk just fine.

    Cethin,

    Is it really? What makes you say that? I don’t agree. There’s no more role play than FO4 (likely less). They removed the “yes, no, sarcastic, more information” wheel but the functionality is literally identical, just presented differently. You have relatively little freedom in how you play the game. The systems connecting things together also do a poor job connecting it. I don’t care for it. I am a huge fan of sci-fi and have been playing Bethesda games for a long time, and this one doesn’t do it for me.

    Oh is this the third iteration already?

    I think regardless of timeline, Valve accomplished what they wanted which was higher adoption of PC gaming through handheld gaming. There’s been an explosion of PC handhelds in the market after their release and they’re the main storefront for it (even if it’s running windows). Their big picture mode worked extremely well with my Ally. Even though I initially bought the device as an extension for my Xbox with GamePass, I’ve found myself buying a bunch of games on Steam.

    The extra 20 minutes telling you to buy shit and like and subscribe is necessary I hear.

    aaaaa, do games w Starfield Is Bethesda's Lowest-Rated Game On Steam

    It's OK, it's definitely less polished than other Bethesda games and given they're not known for polish it'd saying something.

    It gives a 'rushed out the door for a midnight deadline' vibe.
