Mordachai_Shedbacon, (edited ) do games w Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3 Revive Age-Old RPG Debate About Encumbrance - IGN

Jim Sterling release a video on this earlier this week
Probably just a coincidence…

Ookami38,

Holy shit I’m out of the loop. With as much respect as is possible has Jim sterling always been a woman? Like seriously I’ve seen the name a TON, but never actually watched a video lol

Now, on-topic, yeah, I agree with 100% of what she said, and said word for word some of the stuff she did just earlier today lol.

BruceTwarzen,

No she used to be a man. I used to watch his old videos on YouTube, and only a few month ago i remembered it, and looked if he had a podcast, so i started listening to the jimquisition podcasts and was really confused how he's not in it. Only then they said James Stephanie Sterling i finnaly got it. She seems to do fine, she's also a wrestler now.

Ookami38,

Yeah I caught the introduction of “James Stephanie Sterling” and was like… -record skip- wait what? Not that it matters, just was a surprise, and I couldn’t find anything specific googling lol

Starfield’s quality really shook them huh.

Good or bad?

Buggy and disappointing to a lot of people.

And here I am, thinking that it fits Game Pass with its “7/10, would not buy it but it’s alright if it’s on GamePass” quality games just perfectly.

ArrogantAnalyst, do gaming w Baldur's Gate 3: Act 3 Bugs and Missing Content Becoming a Problem as More Players Near End

I finished the game after about 85 hours and yeah… act 2 and 3 need some polish. I ran into more than one gamebreaking bug. But overall it was still a really really great experience and taking the complexity of the game into account I think the overall polish of the game at release was quite good.

How did you beat it that fast? I’m 70ish hours in and only starting to get close to done with act 1 maybe.

uberrice,

By at some point saying ‘OK, enough side quests, let’s move on with the story’. I plan to replay this game multiple times, so I do not mind missing some side quests in my first playthrough.

Bethesda.net/workshop

Transcendant,

That link gives me a 404… do you know why it’s included internet connection in the recommended (but not required) specs?

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

It’s not a link; i was saying the Internet connection is only even mentioned because of the Bethesda.net service and access to the Steam Workshop; both are for getting mods, and Bethesda.net is also where you’d get paid cosmetics and whatnot if they have them. It’s not required to play, which is why it’s only in recommended.

Transcendant,

Ahh I see, thanks for the explanation.

ADHDefy,
@ADHDefy@kbin.social avatar

Same. I just bought the 2070S like... 3 years ago? 2 or 3. I thought it would let me max out games for closer to 5 years, but here we are. lol

Transcendant,

Some of my friends were laughing at me as the 30-series was about to release when I got the 2070s. I was the one laughing when none of them could even get a 30-series a year later, without paying scalper prices! It’s done me really well, feel like we got in just at the right time before prices went nuts and availbility dropped.

Seems to be better now, last time I checked the prices weren’t overly-insane and there were plenty of units available.

DebatableRaccoon, do gaming w Around 50 of 100 Tango Gameworks Staff Moving Over to Krafton - IGN

Which means around 50 didn’t want to work for Krafton or already found jobs. Good for them.

LukeZaz,

Though I hope you’re right, there’s no guarantee of that:

It’s unclear why the remaining approximately 50 staff didn’t join Krafton, but it’s possible they had already found jobs elsewhere as the studio’s closure was announced three months earlier in May 2024.

I fucking love playing as the odd man out. This makes me want to play fortnight and go run rampant in the cybertruck like john wick.

Now all I need is skill

funkless_eck,

yes but on the other hand people will think you (shudder) like Cybertrucks

exu, do games w Witcher 3 Mod Lets You Play as Fully Customizable Witcher or Sorceress with New Magic Combat System

One thing this article gets wrong is the usage of REDkit.
To quote from the mod page:

Q: Is it made with redkit?
A: Not really, I spent 2.5+ years on making this mod, there were a bunch of tools which I used, including some ehich I had to write myself (wolvenkit Json converter, many python scripts for processing entities, meshes, generating setup scenes etc). The mod is built in radish system. Redkit was helpful in fixing some animation bugs on last development stages.

So it did help, but this mod probably could have been released without the new mod tools.

Simon, do games w Star Citizen 1.0 'Twinkles on the Horizon', Dev Says — 12 Years and $669 Million Later - IGN

The discourse here is disappointing considering this isn’t reddit and you expect people to be smarter. Go download and play it right now if you need to form an opinion, because the language you’re all using clearly indicates you haven’t.

Play it so you can give it its valid criticism instead of parroting an internet lynch mob from 10 years ago.

avater,
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

played it. it’s no way near a full 1.0 release…not even a Beta 1.0 release.

Simon,

See, the problem is that’s not a criticism if you play it. It’s playable now so why slap a 1.0 label on it until it’s ready. Real criticism would be something like ‘updates are too slow’, ‘shop weapons are way too expensive’, ‘it takes way too long to get to my ship’, ‘server wipes are too extreme and I should be able to keep expensive ships’, ‘basic mechanics are not maintained and bug free enough between feature updates’ <- all criticism mine by the way.

GiveMemes,

You sound like me c. ARK survival evolved. You got hoodwinked dude, no reason to be ashamed. Sunk cost fallacy’s a bitch

Oh god, I have another space sim and lost $50. They got me bro. Why does this keep happening?

Why are you even playing if you didn’t like it

avater, (edited )
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

Because for some time I still had hope that they can turn this into a somehow good game…and oh yeah I fucking paid for it…

Doof,

This person is respond to someone saying to play it and you respond with why are you playing it… like really?

Cagi, (edited )

But games journalists are the most ethical and truthful of all journalists and definitely haven’t been misrepresenting this project to drum up drama and clicks for years. It’s just a coincidence that Star Citizen drama makes their shareholders richer.

No need for an informed opinion here, I will keep the opinion The Escapist and the Reddit Hive Mind told me to have, they’re never wrong. Derek Smart? More like Derek Genius.

WeLoveCastingSpellz,

mqyve we don’t wanna waste our money

Simon,

Oh my god $50 the horror.

WeLoveCastingSpellz,

is 1500 in my countries currency. and no the wages don’t scale

Goronmon,

However, there is still no release date or even release window for Star Citizen 1.0. CIG will share the roadmap later this year.

12 years in and the update is that a later update will announce when they may, or may not, release the game.

This is, and always has been, the issue regarding this game. Even putting aside the budget they’ve burned through to date (which is impressively massive), the fact that they are still unsure of when they think the game is done is mind-boggling.

Years ago, I thought I was being relatively pessimistic that the game may take until 2023-2024 to release. And here we are in 2024 with the “release date will be announced later” updates still coming.

Simon,

I mean, it was no secret that the game is an ongoing project with ‘it’s ready when it’s ready’ as the goal. Like literally every other public alpha. So I guess people like me will continue enjoying games like SC, DayZ, Arma, Valheim, Zomboid, 7dtd, and countless others just like it while people like you can keep getting mad on the internet. For this game in particular I got far more enjoyment than I deserved for spending $50 I don’t know how people can justify being so lame and self-righteous.
