SLGC, do games w Steam’s Most-Hyped Zombie Game Is Out, And It’s A Dumpster Fire

First I’ve heard of it lol

BruceTwarzen,

I accidentally heard about it a month ago and watched a bunch of videos about the studio and the game. Pretty interesting, and i was really looking forward to see how bad it is. I was kinda surprised how big the following of the game is, and most people i know have no idea that the game exists

echodot,

Yeah well just because you haven’t heard of it and no one’s heard of it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t hyped, It just means it wasn’t typed very effectively.

Most-Hyped?

Since when?

It was the most wishlisted game on Steam for almost a year. It was the second most wishlisted at the time of launch.

It’s all very sus, probably inflated by bots

SkyeStarfall,

Which is interesting because I literally have not heard of it before today.

And looking at the current list, I know about the 6 current top wishlisted games.

Huh, so turns out the game does exist - though it seems it shouldn’t

How are people still hyped like this for video games? I personally haven’t been for a very long time because most of them are just money-grabbing shit.

Plenty of people were born after the Killzone 2 trailer, so they haven't been swindled by snake oil salesmen before.

Being called a dumpster fire is being very generous.

BruceTwarzen,

I watched just some gameplay, and it's still better than i expected. So that's a plus i guess.

Why is it “Steam’s”? The article is as bad as the game supposedly is.

The ‘hype’ was the amount of Steam wishlists it got being insanely high. It’s all very sus, probably inflated by bot accounts

SwiggitySwole,

I know a handful of people who thought it looked like an impending disaster and gave it a wishlist so they could see the early negative reviews pour in

Sylvartas,

Because it was allegedly the most wishlisted game on steam at one point

NewPerspective, do games w Steam’s Most-Hyped Zombie Game Is Out, And It’s A Dumpster Fire

The game is “The Day Before”

Droechai,

I guess a zombie game where you play the 24 hours before patient zero gets sick, like an evil medicine lab simulator who got a 24 hour deadline to produce the first viable zombie or get shut down by the evil investors

MilitantAtheist, do games w GTA 6 is likely to skip PC again and only launching on current gen consoles

Reasons I never buy any of their games.

  • Shitty studio practices
  • Ignoring PC the first year

PC releasing at the same time might just rob consoles of sales they could have. While I don’t support what they do, this is what I think the most logical reason

ddkman,

In my view this is short sighted. A game with this many systems in it may actually need time to be decently optimised for keyboard and mouse inputs. When GTAV finally released it also carried a bunch of improvements. R* doesn’t want to sell games consoles. They don’t make any.

efstajas,

It needs to be “optimized” for controller input in exactly the same way. They could’ve chosen to budget for this “optimization” (whatever that even means) pre-launch.

I think the most likely explanations are 1) larger player base on consoles, 2) Rockstar wants to get the release cash injection ASAP, and 3) staggering platform releases like this prolongs buzz and even leads to a bunch of people buying the game twice.

Who cares? Rockstar is a joke. Play it years from now, it’ll be carried for 10+ years

Arelin, do games w GTA 6 is likely to skip PC again and only launching on current gen consoles

Eh they’ll make a PC version at some point

Deadeyegai,
@Deadeyegai@lemmy.world avatar

Exactly. Maybe in only 10 years, who knows?

Arelin,

Wouldn’t mind tbh. There’s no shortage of great games to play, and GTA was never story driven so there’s no need to worry about spoilers.

HawlSera, (edited ) do games w GTA 6 is likely to skip PC again and only launching on current gen consoles

This was the first entry I was actually excited about!

But Rockstar once again hates PC gamers…

Seriously… sexy ladies in a modern AAA games… no “stoic flat chested tomboys”

My jaw dropped when I saw that shit

Yes please. Tired of that woke shit

your hands are tired for jerking off at that woke shit huh? Need a break cause the sores are too much to bear?

JFK get ahold of yourself. Its fucking Rockstar. Like its not going to have Tits and Ass everywhere. Did you even fucking watch the preview video?

HawlSera,

I did, and I think you misunderstand, I am glad that it had tits and ass everywhere, Rockstar aren’t the rock stars they used to be. Did you see that Grand Theft Auto remastered?

I am actually glad Grand Theft Auto VI has decided that women are allowed to look feminine, what a novel fucking concept am I right? Female characters looking like they’re actually female.

Yes I understand that it’s a cartoon exaggeration of what a woman looks like, I don’t care, Grand Theft Auto is supposed to be a violent cartoon, let it be one. Fuck
