It’s unfortunately classic Lemmy. Every post has at least one person commenting something along the lines of “Why would anyone like this?” as opposed to, y’know, actually engaging with the content.
If i had people to play with i would probably play it a lot. My friend group was only invested in the game for like 6-10 hours during covid and imo we had a hell of a time just hanging out trying things.
Notch was the founder and owner of Mojang. When they talk about “employee #x” they mean employees after the founders even if the founders are on the payroll.
Sounds really cool, though still very light on details. I also hope it’s playable solo since it feels so hard to get a group of 4 people together as a working adult
I get the experience of unprotected internet in my Lemmy app which uses Chrome for preview windows instead of Firefox. Haven’t seen ads in a decade so it’s a pretty wild contrast
Yes it does, I can also choose Open External on specific links - which I do when I know I want to read or remember the link.
I haven’t changed the default behavior because I like keeping stuff “in” the app instead of filling my browser with tabs. I’m not saying that’s a good reason but it’s why I do it
It's funny when your buddies pull mild pranks but I definitely don't like how much companies have adopted it. I could do without all the false announcements.
It's only fun when they do ridiculous stuff for real, like SEGA releasing The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog.
For sure. I am even OK when it is incredibly obvious (the Satisfactory one yesterday was funny) but there are so many piss takes that if a real one is announced you might not ever know. But this Silksong thing is just mean if false, and complete obliviousness if true. That game is so hotly anticipated that you should not mess around
I’m not saying don’t try it, because some people do like it, but I don’t think Starfield will ever be worth the time it takes to play, let alone having to pay for it too. It absolutely does not respect the player’s time, and there’s no content in it that I saw that’s worth playing. I didn’t see anything when I played, but I think I’ve seen just about everything after watching a stupid number of videos discussing the game. None of it is particularly interesting (in fact, I think most of it is fundamentally uninteresting because they weren’t willing to ask how their universe could be different from our own).
BG3 though is absolutely worth playing whenever you decide to play it. I don’t think it’s getting a DLC because Larian said they’re working on something new and unrelated now, but it’ll probably still see some patches and the price will come down, as well as more mods being available.
I recently bought the OG Dragon’s Dogma for $6. There are a ton of QoL and fun mods that improve gameplay, no DRM crap, and the game performs really well overall. Zero reasons IMO to buy DD2 right now and put up with an inferior experience and Denuvo.
Op is just doing the outrage culture thing that has taken over lemmy, basically won’t be happy unless they remove every single micro transaction (that you 100% don’t need and isn’t the intended experience)
Nah it’s everywhere, Lemmy is not special in that regard. Gaming culture in general has a large amount of people who just hate shit, regardless of whether it deserves it or not. Just ask anyone who plays an MMORPG
Lately I bought a lot of AAA Games from the past couple year’s for 12€ up to 20€. It is such a better experience. They work (almost bug free) and you get 30+ Hours out of them on the first run. And when you only get 10 Hours or so out of them and don’t feel like investing more time into them, I tend to not have the big buyers remorse effect like with games that cost up to 100€ plus 20€ every other month or so for the next DLC/Battle Pass that should just have been an update or part of the main game from the start.
