ClydapusGotwald, do gaming w Gabe Newell on why game delays are okay: 'Late is just for a little while. Suck is forever.'

Such a great quote.

bionicjoey,

GeneralEmergency, 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

A quick 5 minute search shows me that this is true. Lots of articles and lists out there. And the only games I could see that weren’t sequels or remakes, are Starfield and Harry Potter.

This isn’t a new development either. Pong had a sequel.

orion2145,

Elden Ring. Cyberpunk. Outer Wilds. HiFi Rush. Stray. Midnight Suns (licensed like Potter but original).

Not saying a lot. But far from none. And alongside Starfield and Horizon Forbidden West (second game in an original series) it’s hardly no original titles.

GeneralEmergency,

Not arguing. Just stating my experience.

im pretty sure steamos has been available for pc for quite some time now.

doggle,

Not exactly. There’s the old Debian based version and a user edited version of the deck’s recovery image. The latter gets you pretty close to the experience, but as with most arch based distros it’s not always a super user-friendly experience.

HubertManne,

I was really more making a point about the title not saying update or something.

I’m running it on a fuckin Steam Deck without issue. The Deck can’t even run Apex without lagging like hell.

Act 1 and at the first half of Act 2 ran pretty well for me, generally 80ish fps on max settings everywhere (6700xt @ 1440p). It’s after that when it started running like a three legged mare; frequent random slowdowns to about 15fps. I suspect that they got the game mostly finished and then started their optimization pass at the beginning, and just hadn’t got to the end of the game by the release date, which was moved forward last-minute to avoid Starfield.

The end of the game doesn’t look any more complicated than the beginning; suspect they just ran out of polishing time.

I’ve been playing bg3 in nearly max settings at 4k on a RX6700 and it’s been nearly flawless. I noticed a bunch of people commenting about higher end 30 series cards, does the game struggle on those?

The biggest issue I’ve found is the cpu usage. Especially in the city of BG I’ll see 8+ cpu cores really getting a workout.

I kinda get how it happened with all the reboots and delays but still, that's one banger of a title lol

Handing the game to Chinese room was a death sentence. Why play a vampire when you can walk around while a narrator talks about being a vampire?

Anticorp, do gaming w The layoffs continue: Ubisoft cuts 124 jobs worldwide, including nearly 100 in Canada

So 0.59% of their staff? That’s not really newsworthy, IMO.

BruceTwarzen,

Yeah fuck these people.

Illecors, do games w StarCraft could return, according to Blizzard president, but not necessarily as an RTS

that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be an RTS, and whatever shape it takes will depend on the person or team who goes to bat for it.

So… it’s not Starcraft, then. It’s just another game.

Whether you are a current player … or maybe you jumped off the WoW train a few expansions ago, now is the time to come home

Sorry, but I left this abusive relationship years ago for a reason. Not coming back. I am also not sure if multiple expansions in a short time frame will be what the users want that are fine with going back every 2-3 years for a new expansion for three month and quit, if there is not enough time inbetween to forget why they stopped playing. Just saying.

And for the story side of things, they have messed up everything to the point that I do not even want to read about the story anymore. I am just done with the world and the lore and the graphics. There are so many interesting worlds and ideas out there, so many great games. I have fond memories of the friends I made ingame, but I also regret the massive amount of time I spent in one single game. It wasn’t healthy for me.

peter, do gaming w Valve warns Counter-Strike 2 players: use AMD's Anti-Lag feature, get banned
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

I thought it was pretty well understood that if you modify game DLLs you get banned, why did they attempt to add this feature?

CoffeeBreakfast, do games w A heroic Starfield modder just straight-up deleted those repetitive temple 'puzzles' from the game

Are you able to load these mods on console, or is the game just unplayable?
