SolidShake, do games w Another live service shooter is getting shut down, this time before it even launched on Steam

Bring back greenlite and this story could have been avoided completely. No one wants an F2P shooter anymore. They suck. They’re never good. Season passes sick. Buying skins is bullshit. I hope we can get to the point where games like call of duty get cancelled before releasing.

De_Narm,

Greenlight was almost universally hated by devs. It could be easily gamed by abusing your popularity or by simply using bots. It prevented actual indie devs from ever releasing finished games while a lot of greenlit games didn’t even release.

SolidShake,

ah. but also just letting anyone make anything is letting bots make scam games

Is this game worth checking out? Or does it need more time?

Quill7513,

this is also what i came into the thread wanting to know

Article seems to think so, but I’m only hearing about it now myself.

I‘ve played 20 odd hours of the initial release version on my Deck and hadn’t hit its content cap. It ran smooth, I didn‘t encounter any bugs or crashes.

Gameplay-wise, it‘s more shallow in the farming aspect but cozier in its atmosphere compared to SDV. Personally, I had a lot of fun, probably the most in a farming sim after SDV. I loved the cast.

I‘ve read criticism that it‘s just a clone which even if true (IMO it‘s not), I don‘t think is a problem: I‘ve played so much SDV, I really needed a different flavor of farming sim (but without any extra BS) to get over the fatigue.

The initial release was already a good and competent game by its own merits, IMO. However, it’s not the second coming of farming sim Christ. This is just my 20 hours impression of the release version, it had two major updates since IIRC.

Suck_on_my_Presence,

I agree with the other reply. But as a fair warning, I’m not someone who really got sucked into Stardew. That being said, I think Mistria is much better. The characters are all fantastic and fun, the magic system is nice, and I love the museum / collections like Animal Crossing.

I haven’t played this update yet, but I’ve really enjoyed the time that I have sunk into the game.

lath,

More of the same. If you like that, then yes.

So, is it the world first or not? They were technically the first…

Is this news?

BadLuckMax also snagged several pieces of ill-gotten Mythic gear, including the unfortunately named Rushed Beta Launchers boots which, being leather (and thus useless on a Paladin) feels like a brutal jab at Blizzard.

Is this a retail thing where Paladins can only wear plate or is the author not familiar with the mechanic? Plenty of paladins taking cloth/leather/mail in OG and Classic.

the_q,

You get some kind of bonus if you wear your classes preferred armor type iirc.

@idontknowman@sh.itjust.works avatar

from cata on you got 5% bonus to your primary stat for wearing your armour class, so plate for example on pally. but gear works differently in retail so all plate has strength and int on it so you really have no reason to use cloth or leather

The rock where I’m actually doing enough with my life so as to not be aware that a cartoonish video game still exists?

Yeah. It’s pretty comfy.

winkerjadams,

Yet you are on a much more obscure thing called Lemmy. I don’t really care, just pointing out the irony.

Rhoeri,
@Rhoeri@lemmy.world avatar

And yet- my not caring about a video game enough to know whether or not it still existed is somehow wrong?

ITT: I learn WoW is still a thing. Honestly thought that shit died like 15 years ago.

Pregnenolone,

You have to be living under a rock to not know that WoW is still an incredibly popular game. It’s easily still the most popular MMORPG

tonytins,
@tonytins@pawb.social avatar

If the only pre-live service MMORPG still going strong.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

I was actually surprised to see Ultima Online is still up and active recently. It must have a pretty decent sized population for EA not to shut down and repurpose the servers for Battlefield or something.

tonytins,
@tonytins@pawb.social avatar

Now there’s a name I haven’t heard in a hot minute.

ICastFist,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

What about FF14 or Guild Wars 2? Don’t they count as pre-live service MMORPGs, too?

tonytins,
@tonytins@pawb.social avatar

checks Seems games as a service model that we know today really picked up steam at around the late 2010s. So, yeah…

acosmichippo,
@acosmichippo@lemmy.world avatar

what makes wow not a live service game? aren’t all MMOs by definition live service?

tonytins, (edited )
@tonytins@pawb.social avatar

I mean, yeah. Just don’t tend not to lump the older ones in it because of how awful the practice has become since the phrase was formalized.

Kusimulkku,

I’ve been living under quite a rock then, haven’t heard WoW even mentioned for years (and years)

the_q,

It’s a failed attempt at minimizing. Lots of people reply like that.

PapaStevesy,

No you don’t.

VindictiveJudge,
@VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world avatar

I genuinely didn’t know it was still big. Everyone I know who played it quit ten years ago and expansion launches no longer hit my feeds.

There are people who still admit to playing World of Warcraft to other people?

Yikes

tonytins,
@tonytins@pawb.social avatar

Eh, whatever makes them happy.

upandup,

I suppose. One of my favorite games is from 1992 and called ultimate underworld.

It was a far superior game regarding storyline, plot, and gameplay.

But I’m not here to yuck anyone. Although that is quite literally what I did.

HipsterTenZero,
@HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone avatar

That’s okay, I’m here to yuck someone. Blizzard is a fuck, don’t give them your sub money lol

upandup,

Can’t disagree with you there

nyctre,

There’s still private servers out there. You can play wow without giving blizzard money.

Damn, lemmy is so good that it has a time machine to read comments from 2005!

upandup,

If people have been saying this for 20 years, then, yeah. Thanks for making my point for me.

lorty,
@lorty@lemmy.ml avatar

The only people saying this were Ultima players from 2005 before they tried and WoW and switched.

upandup,

Looks like I touched a nerve…

the_riviera_kid,

There are people who still whine about what games others enjoy? Yikes.

Krudler,

You are not yet aware that most people have severe self-worth issues?

upandup,

Nobody here is whining. I’m just surprised.

It’s OK if you understand that. No one will hate you for it, I promise.

Zorque,

Your track record of not hating people for their opinions is muddy at best.

upandup,

😬

Mac,

I play WooooW
Can’t nobody mess with me noooow

kane, do games w WoW guild uses exploits to get world 'first' on new raid, gets banned, puts its name backwards and does it again

Banning people in games is extremely difficult, annoyingly so.

Lost_My_Mind,

Actually it’s super easy, barely an inconvenience!

GeeDubHayduke,

Oh really?

vapourisation, do games w Rebellion CEO seems kind of awed by major studios making massive videogames: 'How do you organize a game that has 2,000 people working on it?'

Used to work at Rebellion on their IT team. Genuinely a fantastic place to work and the owners seemed to always be super chill. Had a full suit of armour in one of their offices and so many weapons lying around (likely blunt replicas but still really cool).

I wasn’t on the game dev team so can’t speak for them but I was personally never pushed to work harder and often explicitly told to take breaks.

We also used to have large Unreal Tournament matches at lunch.
