regul, do gaming w Phil Spencer blames capitalism for games industry woes: 'I don't get [the] luxury of not having to run a profitable growing business'

That’s not what capitalism means, dawg.

wccrawford, do gaming w So, looks like Putin's ordered the Russian government to 'consider the issue of organising' domestic versions of the Steam Deck, SteamOS, and Steam itself (with a side order of Steam Machines)

Oh wow. I can’t wait to watch that shit show play out.

Jesusaurus, do gaming w EA CEO talks AI, says the usual stuff before the bong rip hits and he starts blabbing about a future where 3 billion people are creating EA's games with it

Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V isn’t considered using AI to create a game btw… Someone should tell them that doesn’t count.

EA’s games? Thats not a bong, its a lobotomy needle.

Sanctus, do gaming w Hasbro has made about $90 million by letting Larian make a D&D game
@Sanctus@lemmy.world avatar

And then they fired the team that helped make it

Mbourgon,

Well, the team that let Larian make it.

I’m unironically disappointed. I’d take any new direction at the moment, I’ve already been pushed past the point where it wouldn’t make a meaningful difference to me if it got worse. Even a change with a low chance of getting better is worth it over a guarantee of remaining shit.

never, not for a second, did I think this could happen.

unexposedhazard, do gaming w MSI's new Claw handheld goes head to head with Lenovo and Asus at $700

So its garbage in terms of price/performance ratio then?

I don't know what you mean. It even has a screen. Not an OLED, but at that price point we can't nitpick, right? The only thing I really like on this device are the builtin Hall effect thumbsticks.

Nommer, do gaming w US Supreme Court has had enough of Epic vs. Apple, refuses to hear appeals, Tim Sweeney says the fight to open-up iOS 'is lost… a sad outcome for all developers'

Epic can suck a fat cock. So can apple but at least I can choose not to buy their stuff. Epic just buys games and now I have to drop it because fuck epic or continue playing a game they’re activly destroying.

Montagge, do gaming w MSI has launched a new gaming handheld, and there are two things you should know: It's the first to launch with an Intel Core Ultra processor, and for some reason it's called 'Claw'
@Montagge@kbin.earth avatar

For software, the Claw is running Windows 11

Nah, I'm good

MxM111, do games w Factorio pretty much rewrote its world generation to account for new planets—like this volcanic one

I just wish we could dig in Factorio, maybe on different planets…

ashok36,

With the addition of overhead trains, that might be possible in the future.

DLSantini, (edited ) do games w Baldur's Gate 3 has already consumed 500 hours of my life, and I'm just getting started

I’ve put about 100 into my first playthrough, even with the extreme amount of bugs that locked me out of so many areas, quests, characters, etc(which I get downvoted for every time I mention that such bugs exist). But then work got in the way and I haven’t played in probably a month. I would guess I’m half way through act 3, or more. I really need to finish the game. Now that there has been a major update or two since I last played, I’m hoping the bugs I experienced are finally fixed, so I can start a new playthrough and get to do all of the stuff that bugged out. Kinda want to start again with the same character I have now, since I feel like she kinda got cheated, with all of the bugs. Also really want to play the new Cyberpunk and Tales of Arise expansions before that, too. And those are also a question of whether I load up my existing characters, or start an entirely new playthrough for each.

I feel betrayed, as I purchased and played through the game with 2.0 update.

bleistift2, do games w 505 Games' parent company lays off 30% of its workforce, says gamers really only want sequels so that's what it's going to make

When’s the last time you played an indie game?

henfredemars,

I’m only one data point but nearly all my gaming hours are indie.

@corytheboyd@kbin.social avatar

Was always a big fan, but the steam deck has me playing a handful of new indie games every month, and it’s fucking awesome. So many little gems, so many unique ideas, for way less money, way less time invested, way less SERIOUS BUSINESS.

snooggums,
@snooggums@kbin.social avatar

Earlier this week! I play what I like and that covers a pretty wide variety.

Tuesday, why?

cyborganism,

Uh… Yesterday? They’ve become my go to now. They’re so much more fun. A lot of them are just pick up and play. And they bring new concepts and stories instead of the same old crap.

Oh and they’re a lot more affordable.

half_built_pyramids,

Bg3 is indie

Son_of_dad,

Just finished UNPACKING last night and it was so addictive. Before that I played forager which I loved, and before that I played the shit out of Dysmantle and Wytchwood. I love AAA games but there are some really great Indies out there

Basically all I play outside of Paradox titles these days.

wildginger,

Every time I play, it seems like. Ive not bought a AAA game made within the past 4 years, and older than that is always at 50%+ discounts.

I buy full price indie games once a month or two.

Nelots,

About 15 minutes ago. Slay The Spire is fun.

Frogster8,

This comment needs to come with a warning, I bought slay the spire 2 weeks ago and it combined with a steam deck is taking over my life. It has the civ “one more turn” factor massively, doesn’t seem to have the same run diversity as Binding of isaac but it’s as addictive.

Nelots,

When you get tired of what the game has to offer, check out the fan-made Downfall expansion! It’s free, the quality is nearly on par with the base game, and it’s absolutely massive.

jjjalljs,

Played slay the spire on the train this weekend. Also monster train. Played a lot of sandrock the past couple months, too. (Heidi is my love).

I do play a lot of guild wars 2 though. The old standby.

vxx,

Paid 60 bucks since August on games and sunk over 200 hours into them. Vampire survivors for 3, slay the spire for 6 and Baldurs Gate for 50.

I have only 30-50 hours on Baldurs Gate though.

Ruu,

I just beat OneShot yesterday, and before that I beat Dodgeball Academia. In my top 25 favorite games, only 5 of then are AAA, the rest are Indie or AA. There are no AAA in my top 5 of all time.
