DaMummy, do games w After Black Ops 7's weaker launch, Call of Duty will no longer do back-to-back releases in the same series

CoD4 came out in 2007. There’s more than one series in Cod lineup. Nothing will change, there will still be a CoD per year.

RamRabbit,

I think it may be time to install CoD4 again. Damn was that campaign good.

frongt,

Why not CoD2?

MW3 was the one where Russia invades the US, right? That one was good. I think the next one, BO2, was the last one I played. After that, they really fell into the rut of minor iteration.

I might get around to playing some of the others that aren’t in the “high tech” genre. Apparently there was one set during Desert Storm.

TORFdot0,

Why not CoD:UO? (Please play with us, most unique CoD and servers still online!)

SnugZebras,

CoD University of Oregon?

TORFdot0,

United Offensive. Expansion pack to the first CoD, exclusive to PC

afansfw,

Infinite warfare was great, at least the story mode: they went completely off the rails and let you choose where your spaceship goes for the next mission

pycorax,

The new games aren’t all bad for the campaigns. MW2019 was pretty good and Black Ops 6 had a really fun campaign, it had a pretty good story too at least til the end.

“We will drive innovation that is meaningful, not incremental.”

What ya’ shoulda been doing the whole time.

Meanwhile if CS players have ANYTHING change in the game they throw a fit… “innovation” does not enhance FPS franchises, it breaks them.

voytrekk,

CS players aren’t having to pay for a new game every year either.

Well yeah but the same thing applies regardless. Every time CoD tried to “innovate”, outside of Black Ops 2, resulted in players complaining endlessly and/or poor sales. And I say this as someone who HATES milsim obsessed manchildren who demand every FPS franchise cater to them, despite most of them already doing it. Those mfs will straight up say anything futuristic “looks like a mobile game” as if we can’t look past their buzzwords. I blame their bullshit for the failure of Titanfall 2 and CoD Infinite Warfare, which did have an EXCELLENT campaign. But, regardless of that: FPS players don’t want their favorite game to change too much in terms of raw gameplay. This has been a thing you can observe for decades. Hell, people still play Dust 2 the almost exact same way as in 2001.

Fuck censorship.

All devs should release their games on their own websites and get paid in Monero.

Just bought it out of principle on GOG. It’s $3, you should too

Obsidian is one of the better dev houses

iambatman1469,

They’re a darling of the community, but I don’t think they’re that great.

notgivingmynametoamachine,

Their work on New Vegas was phenomenal. Outer worlds… less so.

Wonder where the disconnect was?

And found out filmset scenarios are filled with tricks that make it seem one thing to viewers whilst being something else, just like 3D worlds in games.

MajorasTerribleFate,

Curious if they have any tricks/hacks that could be adapted to each others’ platforms/media that haven’t already been transferred.

Since I’m getting down voted I have rewritten this comment for clarity.

I first heard of this game when it was being advertised on GOG as being “Banned by Steam”

Since it was only five dollars I bought it thinking Mastercard and Visa were up to their old shit again.

Later I found Steam banned it because they mistook a placeholder graphic for CSAM and had strict no second chances policies about that.

So now I am asking why did Epic ban it? Because now I’m worried I was hustled into buying kiddie porn by GOG disguising it as an anti-censorship protest.

alehel,

All characters in the game now are 20 years or older. So you didn’t buy any, no.

QueenHawlSera,

Thank

Wow and hardly any loading screens.

termaxima, do games w It turns out Saudi Arabia will own 93.4 percent of EA if the buyout goes through, which is effectively all of it

Oh great, so now even IF the Sims 5 comes out, I have a moral obligation not to buy it…

NikkiDimes,

Yo ho, matey

Assuming the content is merely controversial and not objectionable (i.e. exploitative), it seems there may be room for an art-centric game store front.

Ironically, I’m betting it’s nowhere near as exploitative as the monetization practices of virtually every AAA release these days.

I_Jedi,

I nominate DLSite and JAST.

Makes me wonder what the next Sims game will be like

Like will women characters be able to leave the house unescorted?

dil,

What we have is literally the censored version by default, they just woohoo?

Does he still carry the guilt from the metacritic fiasco?

BigBananaDealer,

guilt about what exactly?

Pacrat173,
BigBananaDealer,

well avellone claims obsidian was so poorly managed even if they got the bonus it wouldnt have helped the devs at all, most likely going directly to the obsidian execs pockets (same execs who denied more time on the game)

je sawyer blames himself for not focusing on playtesting and bug fixing until way way way too late in development

so im not sure why todd would feel guilty about it at all. obsidian still got paid in full and the fans got a great game out of the ordeal (after they fixed the bugs at launch)

EncryptKeeper,

They never fixed the bugs lol

BigBananaDealer,

believe it or not the game actually ran worse than it does now (unmodded)

like, you couldnt even play the game

EncryptKeeper,

Oh yeah I’m aware of that. It’s just that foundational game mechanics are still broken to this day lol. Like the game never really reached a polished state, without mods.

BigBananaDealer,

theres still a door to a shack that is like a 50/50 chance to crash your game everytime you enter 😂 and its part of a quest

TachyonTele,

That’d assuming he ever had any guilt over it

SoftestSapphic, do games w Horses is back on the Humble Store: 'After a full review they determined that while the content is heavy, nothing in the game warrants removal'
@SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world avatar

Pointless censorship

If it isn’t illegal they should leave it alone

Content warnings and tags exist for a reason

despite all the shit I’m still playing my bethesda games…well, only new vegas and elder scrolls but still

Agrivar,

I’ve recently come around on Fallout 4 - although it does need a massive mod list to make it good.
