OrteilGenou, do games w Avowed Director Leaves Obsidian For Netflix Games

Imagine openly admitting that you’re a director

Yermaw, (edited ) do games w Avowed Director Leaves Obsidian For Netflix Games

If he’s¹ on the case like properly I’ll be a happy camper. There’s been a couple of actually enjoyable mobile games from netflix.

¹They’re²

²She’s

lustyargonian,

He? You mean she, Carrey Patel?

Yermaw,

I meant they because it wasn’t specified in the headline, but you can’t win them all.

ms_lane,

You can, if you don’t know their gender, instead of assuming one way or the other - that’s what them/they/their/they’re are for.

Yermaw,

I corrected my mistake and am still getting told about it. The most innocuous of mistakes in one of the lowest stakes locations and topics available.

MoreZombies,

If you made an edit I guess it doesn’t update for other servers - viewing these comments from a lemm.ee account in Voyager and it’s still the original…

Vespair, do games w Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii

I’m excited to see if they turn it into a FPS or a Sokoban-type game, since we learned from FF7R that apparently you can radically change the core gameplay mechanic but still call your game a “remake” somehow

ABetterTomorrow,

I think you just described “remake” hence the “remake” name.

I’m enjoying it quite a bit!

… except for the fucking lockpicking…

Whyyy did they have to make it so much harder?! It’s so unforgiving now and they took away the noise cue! I used to be able to do it without even looking at the screen because you could hear a distinct sound when it clicked into place. Now there are 3 different drop speeds and the sounds are so minimal…

Katana314, do games w Can't Afford A Nintendo Switch 2? Buy A Switch 1, Nintendo Says - Insider Gaming

Although we still number consoles, in a lot of ways we did get our “tiered” console structure.

Take most people’s daily plays, and I’d say about 90% of them or more have an edition available on the prior gen console. And it makes sense when so many of those games have relatively basic graphics - and when game engines have gotten better at scalability.

So, those consoles are neatly serving as a low budget option for a lot of gamers that can’t follow all the latest and most expensive games. Yes, some newer releases will be fully excluded; but even then, getting a brand new or used Switch or PS4 can introduce someone to a huge number of games if they haven’t been exploring options.

It would be nice when the switch 1 would grt cheaper though. Its ridiculous how expensive it still is.

Saw a sponsored twitch stream of it yesterday. The stat changing mods on lootboxes is suspicious as hell and goes against the “no pay to win” promise they stated a while back

On a side note, This game is unbelievably horny goo(ne)d god

Whomever runs that website should try opening that page using the DuckDuckGo Firefox Android mobile browser. It needs some work.

unexposedhazard,

I think your browser might just be fucky wucky. Looks and behaves fine to me.

Yeah I don’t know, I just used the stock Firefox app. I’m using Bitwarden and uBlock Origin extensions. /shrug

What I long press then ‘open in a new tab’ what see is something trying to do a pop up and then it interacts with the slide-out side panel, and the side panel doesn’t collapse all the way so it’s just long vertical side panel bar, that’s showing the right side of a search box with the magnifying glass, and it covers about 1/5 of the screen so it makes it really hard to read the article.

KITA,

I’m using the same setup as you with no issues. Not sure what’s causing it for you.

@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

Cookie settings would be my guess; not privacy friendly site maybe.

thermal_shock,

Mines fine also, ublock origin and a few other small plugins

CosmicCleric,
@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

Any thoughts then and what could affect one Android app but not all the other installations of the same Android app?

As a software developer, I can’t think of very many, assuming we’re both correct about having the exact same extensions installed and using the same version of the browser.

No idea. does it look weird in the other browsers?

I only have Firefox installed, and not going to bother diagnosing the problem by installing others, as I don’t have the same problem with other web sites using Firefox/Android.

At least, I wouldn’t want to bother diagnosing the problem until they paid me my hourly rate. 😜

FeelzGoodMan420, do games w Wonder Woman Game is "Years Away From Release" As Warner Bros. Gaming Division Struggles

I’m not sure I could possibly be less interested in any game than I am with a wonderwoman game.

TheOctonaut,

How about if the idle animation is Gal Gadot in full IDF regalia singing “Imagine”?

WarlockLawyer,

I thought it was supposed to have the nemesis system from Shadow of Mordor and I am excited for that to return. Wonder woman takes down Cheetah only for her to return later with a new scar and upgrade based on how you beat her last

Games include Halo 1, Halo 2 and Halo 3. Enjoy the thrill of purchasing them all over again!

Every xbox has a version of Halo on it, why do you think this one would be different?

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

They haven’t really had a history of making you purchase them again. If you’ve got them now, you’ll still be playing the copies you already bought.

Noite_Etion,
@Noite_Etion@lemmy.world avatar

Halo has been released on Xbox, Windows, macOS, Xbox 360, Windows Phone, iOS, Xbox One, Arcade, Xbox Series X|S. Then there is the Master Chief Collection which resold the series all over again.

Microsoft will happily sell you the same thing over and over and over. But luckily for them they have fanboys like you ready to defend the multibillion dollar corporation from jokes like mine.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

Those are supported platforms, yes. Many of them are redundant because the same license gives to access to the game on multiple platforms. I’m not defending them; your joke didn’t land because they don’t typically make you buy the same games over again. I’m a Linux fanboy and don’t own a Series X; I have no reason to defend Microsoft. Just make better jokes next time.

Said the fanboy.

Oh so I have a free copy of Halo 1 or 2 on other platforms because I bought it back on the original Xbox… No, if I want to play it on modern platforms I’ll have to buy it again?

What about Halo 3 on the 360, do I get a free copy of it everywhere else… Again no… Shit.

I’m a Linux fanboy and don’t own a Series X.

Yet you immediately downvote all my comments like that means anything, and get wrapped up defending Microsoft from some random jokes online.

they don’t typically make you buy the same games over again.

I love the non-conformational language you use here “they don’t typically make you do something”. You cannot even state plainly that they don’t re-sell their shit over and over because even you know it’s not true.

I look forward to your immediate downvote and reply.

@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

There seem to be a lot of people here who haven’t gotten the memo that future Xboxes are likely to just be disguised Windows PCs, because they’re mostly interested in Game Pass and know they can’t compete otherwise. On an open platform, they couldn’t stop you from continuing to play your old games. They really don’t care about you re-purchasing their old games because they want you to rent a library. That’s why your joke was bad.

Noite_Etion,
@Noite_Etion@lemmy.world avatar

Way to ignore my entire comment lol. But thanks for proving my point that you’re a hurt fanboy by downvoting and quickly replying.

They really don’t care about you re-purchasing their old games because they want you to rent a library.

You get that’s worse right? You own nothing and now if you want to replay their old games you have to rent them again and again. It’s just another subscription… Yay Game Pass. Companies don’t decide to make less money just to give their customers more value, they are a business not a charity.

Besides once Microsoft has a stranglehold on the gaming market (If they ever get it) they will use the position of power to make as much money as possible. Like they did with operating systems or office suites (365). They even tried to buy out Nintendo recently, do you think they did that because they don’t want to re-sell their titles again? Why else try and build monopolies?

What do you think consoles are? They are just a pc with proprietary software and hardware. Even a PS2 can run linux.

On an open platform, they couldn’t stop you from continuing to play your old games.

Yeah killing old servers would never happen.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t think I ever pitched a subscription as being better than ownership, just that your joke is divorced from the reality of the situation and the way Microsoft has operated for over a decade, and that’s why the joke didn’t land. Microsoft won’t get a stranglehold on the market, despite their best efforts.

What do you think consoles are? They are just a pc with proprietary software and hardware.

You are missing the distinction by several miles. A short list includes the lack of cert, the availability of competitors on the same platform, and backward compatibility whether they like it or not. If the value proposition is as poor as you expect it to be, then the launch of a portable Xbox will hardly be noticed next to the Steam Deck, but the more likely scenario is that it’s basically a Steam Deck that plays nicer with Game Pass and anti cheat technologies because it’s actually Windows under the hood. You’ve demonstrated a large lack of understanding about what’s changed between 6th gen consoles and today, but the short explanation is that I don’t see a reason to expect Microsoft to charge you for Halo again on this new platform, because it would be marketing suicide among plenty of other reasons.

How is it divorced? You’re still spending money for the same things over and over again. Your argument is purely semantics" you’re not purchasing, you’re renting!" Like there is a difference… You are still giving Microsoft money to play old games.

If I changed my original comment to read ‘spending money’ instead of ‘purchasing’ would that make you feel better? Because this seems to be your only problem with it.

Originally you brought this up to reinforce the idea that Microsoft consoles are transitioning to a PC with an xbox paint job. Which is what all consoles essentially are, but I got what you were trying to say that it’s a shared environment with a PC, which is somewhat relevant to the conversation… Kinda.

But now you are bringing up certificates, backwards compatibility, steam decks, anti cheat and other generations of consoles.

This entire section of your comment has nothing to do with my joke or the discussion so far, it’s a waste of time and nothing but a diversion. Can you get back to what we are actually talking about? I get it Microsoft rents not sells… You see that I get it right?
