Finished the campaign duo with a buddy. Didn’t experience any particularly bad bugs. Had a couple times where shit didn’t load right for me but closing and reopening would fix so eh.
Kind of felt like a couple plots didn’t flow right going into act 3 but nothing that bad. Act 3 did feel overall a little rushed and unfinished but was still damn good. Some act 3 highlights: House of hope, underwater part, final boss battle (if you don’t count the gauntlet, that part sucked huge balls)
It's been a long time since that was the case though. Now you have to update the console, update the controller firmware, install the game, and update the game.
Sure, but they're approaching a convergence. PCs have gotten easier and consoles have become less streamlined. With something like the Steam Deck, it's even more blurred.
Steam is legitimately easier and faster to get games going on than my PS4 these days IMO. Library is laid out alot better and there's no signing in whenever I turn on a controller. Its still easier to do local multiplayer on PS4, but not by much.
and there’s no signing in whenever I turn on a controller
Can you not sync your account to a specific controller on Playstation? Xbox has that for a while, though the whole software experience has generally been Xbox’s strong suit imho
While only the Steam Deck has achieved massive success, it shows there are ways to reduce the prep time for PC gaming, to almost as little as modern consoles (since you do, ultimately, have to install drivers on console.)
Don't forget RISC-V, it's really the future i think. Anyone who doesn't want to live under the yoke of proprietary architectures, this looks to be the only alternative to the status quo.
If I was seeing RISC-V get widespread adoption in consumer-grade hardware, I’d be thinking about it (granted, having X86-64 and ARM on the market could make room for a third competitor compared to the 15-year x86 hegemony.) But I don’t see a push for that, and there probably won’t be unless RISC-V delivers better results than ARM. Keep in mind that you and I probably care more about CPU architecture than the average gamer.
I’m okay with this on the condition that that platform is PC.
You want developers to choose a specific set of hardware requirements and only develop games to target and work on that specific set of hardware specifications?
The context appears to be mainly about how having to develop for different consoles/hardware configurations/etc makes development harder. So, choosing PC as the "platform" in this context would be the worst possible option to choose.
I don’t think this can be salvaged at this point. Original Marathon fans don’t like that it doesn’t stay true to the source material. Everyone is mad about the plagiarism. Bungies track record is kinda shot after Destiny 2. I think the only people they could attempt to appeal to are hardcore destiny 2 fans.
These are the stories that just make me give up on humanity. It’s like anyone with the tiniest amount of power is an absolute shit heap and nobody can be trusted.
New Stadium is kinda ass. Matchmaker for it is absolutely horrendous and it keeps making teams where one is a stack of Top500 players and the other is bunch of randoms who only played Quick Play before.
I’ve only played 3 games of it, but they’ve all been close so far. I suspect the window for fun has already passed.
Overwatch is fun every time there’s a new completely game-changing shift. At its core it’s an incredibly fun game, it’s only because its so competitive that it loses all the joy. As soon as a new iteration is “solved” it stops being fun.
Yep, just like TF2, that they copied, game is not fun if everyone starts taking it too seriously. I feel like Valve understood that and that’s why they never really pushed the competitive scene.
lol, it’s Jared Petty… I’ve not seen a single positive preview or review from him since he started doing IGN articles. No hate to the guy, I liked when he did Kindafunny content back in the day, seems like a genuinely nice dude… but… this doesn’t seem like a game he’d like (he’s more of a retro games and RPG kind of guy). Also IGN has plummeted in my expectations with a lot of the drama as of late (people quitting and corporate ownership). I played a few rounds this morning, loving it so far, but I’ve also been pumped for this game for a long time! So I’m definitely biased and I’ve also not played enough to say it’s AMAZING! But I have watched multiple people play (JackFrags and OperatorDrewski were both great) and I’d suggest you watch those instead of taking an IGN article from this dude as your final opinion.
