Wow, this is news to exactly nobody.

Kolanaki, do games w DC Comics adamant The Wolf Among Us' source material is not in the public domain, as its creator calls them 'thugs and conmen' and insists it is
!deleted6508 avatar

This seems kinda random for a game that old and nothing changed between its release and now. Is there a sequel in the pipe or something? Why now all of a sudden would they make this press release?

chuckleslord,

This is about the comics that game is based on and the characters/settings therein. Not just the material in the game itself.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

Yes this has all started by the announcement of the reboot of the A Wolf Among Us by a team who bought the rights to TellTale old library.

That new company didn’t legally have the rights to the new title as they assumed and DC pushed on them.

In response to this Bill released his creator-owned series to the public domain. Meaning anyone can make adaption of his work now.

Other examples of creator owned DC comics works is The Sandman and Y: The Last Man.

mojo, do games w Forget Phantom Liberty, Cyberpunk 2077's free 2.0 patch is a staggering upgrade on its own

That’s cool but unless I actually get the DLC, I have no reason to reinstall it again

AceFuzzLord, do games w Games consoles are infuriatingly exempt from California's otherwise important new right to repair bill

As much of a bummer as that is, I don’t think there has ever been any major cases of someone just replacing parts for their console and not selling it. What is a company like sintendo gonna do if you replace the screen on your switch with a 3rd party screen or open it up to replace any parts but don’t end up selling it?

moody,

I think they’re more concerned about mod chips and having to sell replacement motherboards to fix botched jobs.

Nollij, do games w Games consoles are infuriatingly exempt from California's otherwise important new right to repair bill

Does anyone know the reasoning used for the exception? From the article, it was clearly a deliberate decision. But I do not see any reason why it was needed.

moody,

I’m guessing piracy.

mihnt, do gaming w No Man's Sky is enjoying its 'biggest month in the last few years', coinciding with the launch of Starfield
@mihnt@kbin.social avatar

The FOMO in that game drove me away from it.

@snipgan@kbin.social avatar

From what I have seen, granted I haven't played it myself due to my burnout with Fallout 4, Starfield is just a Bethesda flavored No Man's Sky.

Not much to grab my attention and most people I have seen played it seem to put it at a 5-6/10 type of game. Good, but nothing really great.

Meanwhile we have an arguably more fleshed out space exploration game that is No Man's Sky to suit your itch, that is probably cheaper or on sale somewhere. Doesn't helping modding will take years to reach really big game altering levels as it took a while, If even that.

Tbh, No Mans Sky and Starfield have little in common except being space games. Starfield isn't a space exploration / space sim game. It's an RPG set in space. Starfield has more of a storyline and characters then No Man's Sky, they're different games for different people

kayjay,

I wouldn’t call Starfield Bethesda-flavored NMS, I’d call it a NMS-flavored Bethesda game. NMS and Starfield aren’t very comparable except for the setting.

bjoern_tantau, do games w Astarion's voice actor (Neil Newbon) is doing a let's play of Baldur's Gate 3
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

I hope they get the audio problems sorted. They do hilarious shit but Tom’s robotic voice cutting out all the time makes it a hard listen.

BTW, they had the Narrator, Amelia Tyler, as a guest for their third stream. She’s a friend of Neil.

Cavemanfreak,

He has pinned a comment on the first video saying audio won’t be a problem going forward. Not sure if that’s for the videos already out, or for a new batch of videos though, haven’t seen the first batch yet.

Nice, thanks.

circuitfarmer, do gaming w Bethesda says most of Starfield's 1000+ planets are dull on purpose
@circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

This is getting a lot of flak, but I mostly agree. I have enjoyed the exploration of random planets as a pleasant aside to quests. Yes, they’re dull. It’s a lot of scanning flora and fauna, if they exist. Wandering slowly around.

But in that sense, it’s actually one of the most immersive activities in the whole damn game. If Starfield has an issue with anything, it’s immersion.

One thing I didn’t like about NMS, frankly, is that every planet seems to be teeming with life. It makes that life feel uninteresting when you find it, because there is no yin to the yang.

Oha, do games w The Talos Principle didn't need a sequel, but now that I've seen it in action I'm glad that it's getting one
@Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz avatar

I should really finish the first game

PenguinTD,

you should it’s really well made.

Send_me_nude_girls, do games w [Rumor] Nintendo Switch 2 reportedly uses Nvidia's DLSS to boost frame rates
@Send_me_nude_girls@feddit.de avatar

Ray tracing sounds like a stretch, but with frame generation nothing seams to be impossible anymore. Though I’d rather see them target consistent 60fps now.

Amir,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Frame gen below 60fps should really not be used, the latency becomes too high.

Toribor,
@Toribor@corndog.social avatar

target consistent 60fps

I’ve been saying this for like four console generations at this point and they always end up aiming for ~30fps.

HughJanus, do gaming w Bethesda says most of Starfield's 1000+ planets are dull on purpose because 'when the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there' but 'they certainly weren't bored'

Video games are supposed to be a fun escape of reality…

skhayfa, do gaming w Bethesda says most of Starfield's 1000+ planets are dull on purpose because 'when the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there' but 'they certainly weren't bored'

Can they let gamers or modders fill those? I’m sure many would love to claim a planet and get creative in it.

SaakoPaahtaa,

As per bethesda modding standards, the community has to go through 10 years of genitalia before any mods worth checking out start to pop up

Glad I went with Bomb Rush Cyberfunk over this.

Schaedelbach, do games w GeForce Now is shutting down in Russia

Eh, the article mentions how the service didn’t quite catch on anyway. So probably an easy decision for Nvidia because they didn’t make enough money to be profitable. So I doubt think this is a case of a corporation doing the right thing but a corporation doing the right thing for it’s bottom line.

Doing the right thing for the wrong reason.
