Ilflish, do games w EA flop Immortals of Aveum reportedly cost around $125 million, former dev says "a AAA single-player shooter in today's market was a truly awful idea"

I’ve been hearing rumblings of people complaining about current game advertisement cycles being too long. Immortals, is a great example of one too short. Announced at Summer Game Fest and released in August(?). We don’t need long Ad campaigns for old brands but if you want to market a new IP as Triple A you have to put in the work to reach unplugged gamers, and it barely reached plugged in gamers.

sunbytes,

I also don’t want to be marketed at. If it’s good I’ll find out organically.

And I don’t want to find out about it at/before release-time. Because then I’ll want to buy it on release.

That’s the time the game is most buggy and least optimised (maybe also unbalanced too).

Complaining it didn’t sell well enough on release is some real crybaby stuff as well.

“It didn’t go exactly the best way I wanted it to go 😭😭”

I really wish I wasn’t surprised they’d be this petty. Yet another day in the greedy corpo world

iheartneopets, do games w Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is a "little ways off" but "progressing well"

This article makes some pretty sweeping claims about rumors being “thoroughly put to bed” based on a vague tweet about the DLC’s progress. I’m not sure it does anything of the sort, especially when the article didn’t even report on the exact question asked of this developer.

The reporter seems to take the quote and run with it a bit.

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.

    Sure Ubisoft have some bad business practice, I understand the sentiment, but we wish to keep this community as toxicity free as possible.

    Understandable. Have a nice day 👍

    Stupid question: why call it 2K24 instead of 2024? It's the same amount of characters...

    The company is called 2K. Also, it is their "brand" since forever e.g. 2K5 for the 2005 one

    It also distinguishes them from EA’s sports titles. Or at least, it did, when they both made games for the same sports.

    also if you’ve ever asked a 2k player what game they play, they’ll often just say 2k without the year since it almost doesn’t matter

    thanevim,

    Someone in marketing thought that sounded cooler and would make more sales
