recycledbits, do gaming w Starfield is Bethesda's Least Buggiest Game to Date, Say Sources

“least buggiest”? Hmm, I know what “least buggy” would mean, not sure how to parse this one. On the bottom end of the buggiest bunch?

Last time I saw this headline my brain just skipped "least" and read it as the buggiest game to date.

What a sales pitch!

Rynelan, do gaming w Developer remakes The Simpsons: Hit and Run from scratch

So basically he only needs the rights and it’s ready for release? Wonder how hard that’ll be to accomplish

I suppose that they could release it for free as an open-source project and not brother with all of that

Kichae,

No, they'd still need IP rights for the characters/world/name. Releasing it for free doesn't alleviate that issue in any way.

They could strip it of all of the Simpsons related stuff, but they'd also have to create new levels, since those are owned by the epriginal publisher.

Yep. There would be a line of lawyers at that guys door the next day to ruin his entire life. I'm surprised they haven't already. Would love to play it but unless there is a "leak" it's not happening.

whataboutshutup,

And if a company wants to fuck with you, it can sue you anyway over minor likeness until it exhaust you from money to attend hearings.

eric5949,

It uses assets from the game so that’s a no go.

oh, yeah, then definitely not

SmarfDurden, do games w Wonder Woman Game is "Years Away From Release" As Warner Bros. Gaming Division Struggles
@SmarfDurden@lemmy.world avatar

If anyone cares, I wrote a piece addressing this as well. It’s a classic story of a harvard executive not understanding video games, not understanding the industry, and failing at every opportunity. Jason Schreier was the one with the original scoop. Jason’s article is really meaty and worth the read.

Wonder woman is, in my opinion, an odd choice for a video game. I think it could be really good, and her rope would translate well to video game mechanics, but it doesn’t feel like Wonder Womans time to shine right now

ByteOnBikes,

Thanks for the write up! I had no idea this is why Suicide Squad was such a letdown.

Wonder woman is, in my opinion, an odd choice for a video game. I think it could be really good, and her rope would translate well to video game mechanics, but it doesn’t feel like Wonder Womans time to shine right now

Id argue that I felt the same about Batman not being translatable to a game during the 2000s. Video games based on comics were absolutely awful. Superman 64 was a nightmare, and Batman games were beat-em-ups or platformers.

But really smart creatives made the Arkham series work. So I’m optimistic that in the hands of strong visionaries, it’s absolutely possible.

Now, do I think WB has the capacity to make a good Wonder Woman game? Haha nope. Not after what they’ve shown in the last few years.

shyguyblue,

I’m imagining an LA noir style section involving the lasso of truth (?). And i haven’t seen the movies, but watched reviews, and there seems there might need enough upgrade paths to ramp up the combat elements. Maybe she gets with Batman to upgrade her suit?

Hell, even a tomb raider style origin story might work, if they don’t skimp on the writing team.

Zahille7,

I think making it a modern style Tomb Raider, mixed with some mechanics of the new God of War games would be best imo.

Like maybe you start out on Themyscira and you go through some training that the other Amazons go through as like a tutorial, and then the rest of the game has you going to secret temples and ruins spread around the world. An upgrade system could work seamlessly too; maybe sprinkle shrines to the gods throughout the maps that give you points so you can add “favors” or something that makes you stronger.

So it’s kind of an origin story showing how Diana becomes Wonder Woman, and how she has all those powers that other Amazons don’t.

BrundleFly2077,

A WW game with the same sort of vibe as the latest Indiana Jones might actually rock, now that I think of it. Speaking of Batman, Arkane and the right property in the right hands… that Great Circle game came outta nowhere as far as I was concerned.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

You didn’t think Machine Games could make a great game about a character who hates Nazis?

BrundleFly2077,

🤣 I mean, point taken. I guess I just had too many prejudices built up around the idea of the license being used properly.

Their imagination exceeded mine by a wide margin.

But… the invisible plane! That’s perfect video game material!

YamahaRevstar,

but it doesn’t feel like Wonder Womans time to shine right now

It could be if they made a good game.

Etterra, do games w Suicide Squad Cost Warner Bros. $200 Million In Revenue

If only every live service game and technology suffered the same fate. Also p2w.

AnonTwo, do games w New Crazy Taxi Game Will Be Live Service with a '100-Person Survival Mode'

I mean, they were obviously going to add more modes if they want the game to be AAA. The Original games were basically a 5 minute arcade loop....

Eyck_of_denesle,

5 minute arcade loop that me and my brother replayed for like a 10,000 times.

CitizenKong, do games w Dreadwolf's Delays Are Impacting The Next Mass Effect - Insider Gaming

They just fired 50 devs while working on two games simultanously. I wouldn’t be surprised if BioWare doesn’t manage to finish either one before going bankrupt.

At this point, I won’t believe Dreadwolf is actually coming out until it’s on store shelves, and I don’t think for a moment there’s actually going to be another ME game…Not one made by BioWare, at any rate.

IWantToFuckSpez,

Sony should sweep in and take the studio off EA’s hands and rebuild it. Sony is missing a studio capable of making fantasy RPGs in their roster. give them the Decima engine and see what they can do without having the burden of EA meddling.

Mandy, do games w Cloud Imperium Games [Star Citizen developer] Undergoes Major Shake-Up to Hit Deadlines

What deadline? Of their life? Cause deadlines are gone since it was supposed to release 10 Yeats ago

warmaster, do games w Cloud Imperium Games [Star Citizen developer] Undergoes Major Shake-Up to Hit Deadlines

What are the chances they never deliver what they promised?

JiveTurkey,

Pretty good chances.

CitizenKong,

Yep, at this point, never actually releasing the game is part of the business model.

hdnsmbt, do games w Ubisoft's Board is Launching an Investigation Into The Company Struggles

Nah, this is about money. They’ll definitely find a group of underpaid employees to fire.

RvTV95XBeo,

They’ll fire the developers that implemented the unpopular features (that they didn’t want to build in the first place but were forced upon them from executives, who, by the way, are due for their end of year bonuses!!)

newthrowaway20, do games w New Crazy Taxi Game Will Be Live Service with a '100-Person Survival Mode'

And just like that, my interest in either Crazy Taxi or Jet Set Radio evaporates into the ether.

Wtf is this? The game was already patched and enhanced for PS5.

ArmokGoB, do games w New Sony Patent Will Let You Replay A Game From Any Point Possible

Another software patent that no one should respect because it does something that was done 30 years ago.

The latest on this is that he never said anything about it, and it was all the interpreter.

Per Gematsu (and others by now, I’m sure).

Too bad I can’t pin your comment on Lemmy. I would have if I could.
