Might be a while if what I’m hearing is true… The Xbox Series S can’t handle couch co-op, and while it runs fine on the Series X, Microsoft demands feature parity. :(
Yeah. I’ve heard that. I’m glad Microsoft made the Series S; I own one and it’s my gate to modern gaming, as I don’t have enough money for a good computer nor Series X. It’s a nifty little machine. Obviously, I don’t want Microsoft to lower the parity requirements nor — shudder to think — discontinue the Series S. At the same time, I would really like to play BG3. Difficult times. I guess lowering the parity requirements would be the preferred option.
I wonder how many people actually play the Larian RPGs in multiplayer and what percentage of them uses couch coop. Personally, I can’t really see playing a long cRPG with someone else.
I am just gonna pretend like Epic and HB banned it only after see all this PR work they’re trying to do to save this god awful looking piece of “art.”
And just becsuse the comments here don’t seem to know the real root issue: The game originally featured a child protagonist, and that was what Valve was sent to review. They only changed the protag to an adult after the rejection and now they are throwing a hissy fit over their pedo game being banned.
Far Isle was a human colony planet, within Unified Earth Government space. The colony was the site of what is considered to be one of the United Nations Space Command’s worst atrocities; in response to a rebellion in 2492 that they were unable to quell, the UNSC razed the colony using nuclear weapons, leaving no survivors.
This is why while I love 40k, I have mixed feelings about there ever being a mainstream movie/show about it. I can already imagine MAGA wearing shirts saying “Purge the xeno scum”
AgenTic, not Agenic. As in, an AI that acts as your agent. Meaning, the goal would be to have an AI model that you could direct to perform certain tasks in the background while you focus on other things.
For example, youre in the middle of doing something or another when you remember that your oil change is due. You pull up KraftonAI and tell it to “book me a service appointment for my vehicle at the dealership this weekend”. The AI proceeds to work on that task in the background, only prompting you for input if it meets a road block it doesn’t understand.
I mean, that’s the goal of all of these AI companies. If you peruse any marketing material for Google, Microsoft, ChatGPT, Grok, etc. they almost all mention the “agentic capabilities” of their flavor of spyware.
Personally, an AI model which is capable of doing tasks like this would actually interest me. However, no organization (for profit or otherwise) is trustworthy enough to have access to all of the data on me that it would take to make an agentic AI actually useful, so, for me, it would have to be something I run locally. However, rather than invest all of the time, effort, and money into learning how to make that happen, I think I’ll just call the damn dealership and schedule an appointment. I may suffer from terminally online brain rot, but I’m not so paralyzed by human interaction I can’t make the occasional phone call.
Glad to hear this. Years ago I worked with Obsidian engineers (who may or may not still be there, I have no idea) and I absolutely loved the systems they had built for their games. They were able to create games with a massive amount of content with a relatively small team of engineers, so I’ve always rooted for them.
I liked (didn’t love) and completed the first Outer Worlds but I thoroughly enjoyed Grounded - even though I never played through to the end game. I’ll definitely give this one a go.
