A_Union_of_Kobolds, do games w Destiny 2's new $15 "Starter Pack" is a bunch of junk and the last thing the MMO needed right now

And the new season (which is gonna last till freaking JUNE) has people running a five-year-old activity.

Yay.

zaph,

Nora really fell off fast

Defaced, do games w Small games can be good for AAA studios, and "directly contributed" to big RPGs like Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2, says Obsidian's Josh Sawyer

Obsidian really got the last laugh considering what Bethesda did to them with New Vegas. Now the roles have essentially been reversed. I’m really looking forward to Avowed.

CraigeryTheKid,

I just powered through outer worlds in a couple of weeks, and loved every bit of it. Also look forward to avowed!

I’m glad outer worlds is getting the recognition it deserves, it was drowned by the disruptive Disco Elysium but it’s still a great RPG with a great sense of humor that made billionaire fanboys mad.

Bungie always seems to forget the “service” portion of GaaS.

They favor the FoMO model.

Why though? The trailer had good voicelines as did the previous game. Very strange move.

If this gets more confirmed gods I hope they take Bandai Nampo to forking task over this. This is when the union needs to step up and protect its members.

As mentioned in the article, these are all union VAs and their new agreement explicitly protects them from AI being used without their permission.

If it turns out they really did use AI to rework some of the voice lines, there could be a major lawsuit coming…

Wow that’s bs

Is this game available to play on the steam deck?

xCookes,

It does work on the steam deck, but you’ll need to source a copy from somewhere as its not sold on steam.

Someone should really remaster and remake this game.

Dudewitbow,

A fan did it, but cant release it publicly for obvious reasons

stevedidwhat_infosec,
ReallyKinda,

This makes game development look much more fun than it probably actually is

teawrecks,

Like with any skill, the yt videos feature the 1% of the time when they get to show off progress. But of course the other 99% of the time is spent on the struggle bus. And like with any skill, if you can learn how to slog through the lows, the highs can be a very rewarding experience.

There’s really nothing like seeing someone play your game for the first time. I assume it’s similar to a musician showing off their music, or a director showing off their film. But that interactive element is very unique; getting to see how people interact and respond emotionally to this thing you built. Actually, maybe it’s like being a toy maker.

I’ve been playing an unofficial HD remaster on Switch these days, pretty solid work

Blue_Morpho,

Whaaaa? Where? The dude said he couldn’t release because of copyright. Is it on torrents?

SkullHex2,
@SkullHex2@lemmy.ml avatar

You could probably find it, but personally I simply followed the instructions on GitHub: github.com/ZenoArrows/The-Simpsons-Hit-and-Run

Blue_Morpho,

Thanks! I thought you got a hold of that remake done in Unreal Engine.

That’s great and all but how about a remastered Virtual Springfield?

One guy has fully remastered the game with super high resolution and all nut won’t release it because it would be illegal.

I loved this game so much on the original Xbox

I was just thinking the other day that it's about time to replay this game. So I guess it is.

Both were overdone and empty-ish (southern Velen swamps gave me PTSD)

FullFridge,

I remember liking Witcher 3’s. It made the world feel large and lived in. Although I’m not the kind of person who needs to complete everything on a map. I have heard people complain about that

There are some decent ones where you can find fragments of stories told through letters and/or environmental storytelling, but most of the question marks are just mindless monster nests, bandit camps and buried treasure. Skellige in particular is notorious for all the question marks in the water that are just vendor trash flotsam to collect.

In general exploration in TW3 would be more rewarding if the itemization wasn’t so scuffed. The only gear worth using is the Witcher sets (which you craft), which really lessens the excitement you feel when looting. There were so many times where I found a guarded treasure, defeated the boss and looked at a cool unique sword, only to realize its stats were beyond atrocious.

FullFridge,

Yeah, I think that’s why I didn’t have an issue with it. I remember only doing maybe 1 or 2 of the barrels in the water in Skellige. I mostly used the question marks as small distractions as I went from one quest to another. I never focused on clearing them out.

You’re right that most of the items weren’t that rewarding to get. It’s mostly just busy work. Hopefully rebirth keeps that stuff to a minimum and just has a large map with cool locations and unique well written side quests. Maybe a few collectibles scattered around the map to reward exploration too.

DaDaDrood,

The first thing I do with any open world game is turn of all map/quest/achievement markers except for maybe the active selected quest. It makes gaming so much more organic. Aso when you do a replay you can still find fresh quests on your second/third plays.

Good lord just do the same shit they did with the original but update the graphics.

They're going to ruin this... 😕

Ultraviolet,

The ending of part 1 was literally killing a manifestation of the concept of being a remake. It’s a sequel to FF7R, in which the subtitle “Remake” was a red herring, not part 2 of a remake.

@helloharu@lemmy.world avatar

Considering how much it smacks you in the face, it amazes me how many people fail to see or completely ignore the subversion of destiny/fate plot point.

Wugger,

No one fails to see that after playing the game. As the person above you said, the game title was deceptive. We were told it was a remake, but were given something else instead.

helloharu,
@helloharu@lemmy.world avatar

That’s not what they said at all, especially not in the manner you’re arguing.

money_loo,

Maybe I’m just high, but I can’t for the life of me understand what the fuck this means…lol

naticus,

Essentially “Remake” was the subtitle of the game, rather than a term like remaster. It was subtle until the end, but you’re remaking the story’s timeline. It’s a sequel, not a remaster or reimagining of the original.

Also, yeah you’re definitely high. Like damn dude.
