ZoopZeZoop, do games w Stardew Valley creator ignites new fan theories with five simple words: 'Here's a Haunted Chocolatier screen'

I’m 40 now. If I have to wait until I’m 50 for CA to feel like it is good enough for release, I’m fine with that. SDV was and still is a beautiful game that I will come back to regularly, like Terraria. Just good fun.

Same I’m trying to keep this energy. It’d be nice to have it now, but it’s also nice to have it to look forward to.

justdoit, do gaming w Elon Musk appearance at Valorant Champions tournament met with boos, crowd chanting 'bring back Twitter'

I long so desperately for the days when I didn’t know who Elon Musk was

I support censoring all news related to Elon and his companies

justdoit,

I was kinda hoping the enoughmuskspam community would be focused on talking about innovative tech/engineering work happening at other companies. I guess that’s more the point of “futurology”, but still…

But, enoughmuskspam is just… Musk spam

TwilightVulpine,

I'm not surprised a community with a person's name in the title focuses on them. It's like saying "don't think of a pink elephant"

hansl,

It’s meant as a black hole of Musk spam posts. A way for other communities to just say “we’re banning any news about Musk, post those in EMS”.

I guess technology didn’t get the memo.

bbplay13,

His companies are fine. (minus Twitter) SpaceX and Tesla are great he just needs to keep his fucking mouth shut and do his job. The man is cringe and is taking his billionaire status too hard.

traveler, do gaming w Baldur's Gate 3 used motion capture from 248 actors to bring its NPCs to life: 'You’re not only hearing the actors' voices, but you’re also seeing their physical performances'

I need to get this game so bad. Probably going to get it to PS5. Should be fine right? 😇

My bet is it’ll be great on PS5. People are already saying controller support is really well implemented on PC, and it runs really nicely on a range of hardware

traveler,

It’s going to release in September, so I’m just waiting for it to be released on Ps5 😅

nromdotcom,

Yeah, my plan is PS5, too. I was worried because been playing these games on PC almost literally my whole life, from BG1 and IWD through to PoEII and DOSII. But I don’t have a PC that can play any sorts of games right now, so it’s gonna have to be PS5.

Watching a few let’s plays and streams, it sounds like controller support is solid. So despite not being what I’m used to, I’m confident it’ll be a solid experience.

traveler,

I do have the PC but I do find playing on a console better for my current lifestyle.

Potatos_are_not_friends, do games w The RTS genre will never be mainstream unless you change it until it's 'no longer the kind of RTS that I want to play,' says Crate Entertainment CEO

Going to throw a shout out for Against The Storm.

It takes my favorite part of Age of Empires (setting up the dang base) and distills it into the perfect game.

Now if someone can figure out how to make the other half (the combat) really good.

stsquad, do gaming w I tried two demos of machine learning AI NPCs, and they didn't convince me AI will lead to anything that immersive sims like Deus Ex haven't already done better

A bunch of generative filler text won’t games more immersive. Maybe there is some scope in giving the model hidden details you need to coax out of it LA Noire style but currently everything seems a bit gimmicky.

FireTower,
@FireTower@lemmy.world avatar

Maybe it could be a benefit for asking questions to NPCs devs didn’t think you’d want to ask that. Like asking a city resident where the market is. Probably not today but perhaps one day.

Jajcus,

Then every charakter would probably need his own AI model, otherwise everyone would know everything, which would not be immersive at all.

JackGreenEarth,

They would need their own preprompt, that’s all.

jmcs,

If you give LLMs that much latitude you are going to have your NPCs spread conspiracy theories and fascist crap left and right in your game and a PR crisis on your hands.

eskimofry, 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'

Sounds like skill issue.

mindbleach, 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)

Ah, entering his crazed delirium stage of dictatorship.

Yeah, I can see why the US is falling to pieces.

mindbleach,

Dictatorship is when government doesn’t do things.

mindbleach,

Oh right, this is .ml, where we’re playing make-believe that the lifetime figurehead who won an election against nobody is toootally a legitimate example of popular democracy. Because it would be impossible to criticize The West™ unless the immediate alternative was completely flawless.

Inventing a domestic video-game company obviously isn’t totalitarian, but it’s some Kim Jong Un shit. It’s an autocrat copying a theme park, with blackjack, and hookers. (Oh god. Tell me I’m not gonna see people pretend the Kims are anything but a hereditary monarchy.)

Ilflish, do games w Fans of Pokémon-inspired MMO Temtem are arguing with the developer about what MMO means after Crema CEO says it's 'not feasible' to keep adding content forever

A Massively multiplayer online role playing game does not mean the game is a game as a service. It’s a route of finance just like some shooting games are and some aren’t.

Pistcow, do gaming w Wizards of the Coast confirms it is not selling the d&d IP to tencent

Yet*

Moira_Mayhem,

WoTC might not sell its DND IP but Hasbro could easily sell the entirety of WoTC to Tencent if they wanted to.

fushuan,

Isn’t MTG quite profitable? I don’t think they will sell all of wotc.

Jonny, do games w This fan-made HD PC port of Zelda: Link's Awakening is so cool I can't believe Nintendo hasn't taken it down yet

Well I'm glad I managed to hear about it before they do! LA DX was my first Zelda game. Time to relive some memories in HD!

DemBoSain,
@DemBoSain@midwest.social avatar

The Link’s Awakening remake on Switch is worth your time. I loved the original, and I loved the remake. I hope they continue bringing their old games forward like this (LA, Mario RPG, etc.)

Jonny,
@Jonny@kbin.social avatar

Oh don't you worry, I've completed it. But thank you :)

I agree, I thought it was great and I felt the art direction really fit the original perfectly!

I've been slowly working my way through 100%ing every Zelda game. Done almost all of them other than BotW & TotK.

BaroqBard, do games w Superb survival city-builder Against the Storm is finally finished and released

Superb is right! Absolutely a delight, it’s become something I keep returning to on a regular basis. Each time, just enough balance between “chilled out,” familiarity, and freshness of relevant judgment/choice-making. Definitely helps that the UI is absolutely on point throughout and the music is a delight.

DeadPand, do games w Superb survival city-builder Against the Storm is finally finished and released

Been playing it the last few weeks, pretty addicting

ABCDE,

Addictive

Ashyr,

Honestly, you’re wandering into prescriptive vs descriptive grammar on this one. How we use words changes over time. For example, it’s not nearly as big of a deal to to end sentences with a preposition anymore.

No need to be pedantic, the meaning is clear.

Addicting, especially for non-professional usage, is perfectly fine these days.

But I tend to be a descriptionist.

thorbot,

Addicting is a perfectly cromulent term to use in place of addictive

ABCDE,

Incorrect usage and descriptivism are still separable; it’s still not a word (yet), although that is arguable of course.

catsarebadpeople,

No one likes you

grahamja,

It’s English, there are no rules. Call the cops, no one cares.

dumpsterlid,

People really really reallllly want to believe there are laws of grammar/language like there are laws of physics and it is honestly kind of hilarious.

The power of language comes from there being no rules or laws, language is just the sum of what people choose to write and say. You can impose patterns on what people tend to write and say, but ultimately it is no different than looking into the night sky and deciding a couple of stars makes the shape of a lion and believing you have determined something fundamental about those stars.

ABCDE,
