smallaubergine, do games w Microsoft Nintendo acquisition hopes revealed by leaked Xbox exec email

Not very interesting news in my opinion. Lots of companies/CEOs want to acquire other companies.

Squander, do games w The next Sims game will be free-to-play with paid DLC

Its free-to-play but you need to buy the housing/eating/sleeping/jobs/relationships DLC.

capt_wolf, do games w RV There Yet? is a dad-core co-op game about doing a very bad job driving home from your campervan vacation

My best friend and I have been playing this for the past 3 days and it’s wild. All I was expecting was a game about camping in an RV. We’re now underground and having to navigate explosive gas…

wetbeardhairs, do games w Travel back to the days of cable TV with Blippo+, a time-hopping FMV game about... I'm not entirely sure, actually

Does it have an actual game embedded in it somehow? Like you solve a puzzle or something that is hidden in clues within the shows?

Krauerking,

Nope. There is an overarching story happening if you want to pay attention but they just recorded a bunch of absurdist content and charge you to watch it in their own software.

Its like a streaming platform where you literally have to watch the previous episode to get the next.

wetbeardhairs,

Oh. If that’s really the case then it is much less exciting. That almost sounds like some kind of boring fine arts thesis.

Krauerking,

It was originally aired weekly on a schedule like real TV for that gameboy with a crank looking console, Playdate.

That console constantly feels like arts thesis projects.

wetbeardhairs,

That thing is special.

magic_lobster_party, do games w After 18 years, a surprise Half-Life 2 update makes it once again possible to beat a honking train on Highway 17

That explains a lot. I remember it not requiring that strict timing.

calabast, do games w Dreamsettler, the follow-up to early internet inspired browser game Hypnospace Outlaw, has been cancelled

Aww, I hadn’t heard of dreamsettler, but I really enjoyed the weirdness of Hypnospace Outlaw.

systemglitch, do games w You can now search for Steam games by adjustable difficulty, mouse-only options and other accessibility tags

Nice, the search function, while okay, has always been far too limited in my experience. Can’t wait to check this out.

@mr2meows@pawb.social avatar

inb4 java edition becomes unplayable on older systems even with render distance set to lowest

FearMeAndDecay,

Apparently you’ll be able to toggle between the new lighting and the old lighting, so hopefully that isn’t a problem

toxicbubble420, do gaming w Video game publishers are starting to use "anti-DEI" as a marketing meme

it’s only one studio, CI Games, based in Poland.

CaptainBasculin, do gaming w Video game publishers are starting to use "anti-DEI" as a marketing meme

It’s something not every game needs for sure; since it’s based on real world based feedback when a game could be way beyond the world’s scope.

But putting it as a marketing thing is as dumb as putting dei as a marketing thing. Whether it’s needed or not will depend a lot based on what the game’s story and theme is based on.

optissima,

putting it as a marketing thing is as dumb as putting dei as a marketing thing.

Idk chuds love licking the capitalist boots and pay extra for it, and the investors care only about that. When you view it through that lens, it’s not dumb.

It’s something not every game needs for sure; since it’s based on real world based feedback when a game could be way beyond the world’s scope.

What is this attempting to convey? I think it got lost in typos.

CaptainBasculin,

I mean the game being in an universe where applying general sense wouldn’t fit at all

optissima,

You must at some level make a product that is attractive and relatable to your audience or you will never sell a product, and the only way to do that is by taking aspects of the existing world.

DoucheBagMcSwag, do gaming w Valve must address swastikas and other hate on Steam, writes US senator in a letter to Gabe Newell

Whataboutism to avoid the conversation talking about Twitter

Vodulas,

Why would a gaming news website talk about twitter? How is it whataboutism? Two things can be bad at the same time.

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Not the gaming site article. The senator themselves

Vodulas,

Oh, got ya

ILikeBoobies, (edited )

So he could ask Valve who, if the fanboys are to be believed, might actually do something about it, or go ask Elon to fix Twitter who will certainly not

King of starting games and never finishing them

Voroxpete, do games w Slay The Princess gets three new chapters and more when The Pristine Cut releases 24th October

Fuck yes, more Slay The Princess. One of the most brilliantly creative games I’ve played in years.

HawlSera, do gaming w All five of you will get a free buggy when you next boot up Starfield

Remember when modders tried to fix Starfield, but gave up because the game was JUST THAT BORING!?!?!

SynopsisTantilize,

Is the modding community dead for this game? Hasn’t it only been like a year since release?

Kaboom,

Not completely dead, but no where near where Skyrim or Fallout 4 are.

SynopsisTantilize,

Shame. Seems like there is a good engine to mess with.

Wanderer,

Its literally the same engine they use since Morrowind.

SynopsisTantilize,

Then all the more reason it’s a shame. I think when I wrote that I was talking to someone, I could have meant environment or setting.
