Blizzard, do games w Fallout, an original series, coming to Prime Video in 2024

Holy shit! Shame it’ll be on Prime Video and not HBO. I hope they don’t make another Rings of Power…

Milan,

It’s the same showrunners as Westworld and Amazon has the money so I’m still optimistic

@Call_Me_Maple@lemmy.world avatar

I said it one Reddit and I’ll say it here.

All I want out of Hi-Fi Rush now is a sequel, an adult animated series, and a Hibiki snap-back. And maybe some figures of the cast. Hi-Fi Rush was a damn good game, it’d be a shame if we didn’t get more out of it.

mihnt, do gaming w Hi-Rez Studios, the people behind Paladins and Smite, have stated that they will be using AI to clone voices and refused to add in any words to contracts that would protect actors from it
@mihnt@kbin.social avatar

Ugh. I used to love what Hi-Rez put out. Global Agenda was probably my favorite game by them. From my home state as well. They've always made terrible business decisions though. This, of course, is no exception

r0bi,

GA was my first introduction to them, I should have learned when that closed down. The loss of Tribes was a huge blow.

viking, do gaming w New Rimworld DLC: Anomaly

Haha, Rimworld gets even more horrifying. I’ve played the crap out of Rimworld and the previous DLCs, but I might wait a while to buy this new DLC. Rimworld feels like a uphill battle even in medium-level difficulty. I guess I’ll wait until I’m in the mood to feel horrified on top of that. I’m not sure I’m ready for my prisoners whose legs I cut off to keep them from escaping so that I can use them as blood banks for my vampire colonists to get mauled by monsters.

I wonder if this will mean improvements for cyberpunk's modding scene as well, since they use the same engine underneath?

hal_5700X, do games w Nominees for Game of The Year at TGA 2023
@hal_5700X@lemmy.world avatar

Armoured Core VI is not nominated for GOTY, sad.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty needs to win Best Narrative.

Please let F1 23 get Best Sports game.

Games for Impact…what?

Hogwarts Legacy got zero nominations is unsurprising. Due if it was nominated for something. Twitter people would have flipped their shit.

Another subpar TGA. GG Doritos Pope.

    I think the pseudo-quote you wanted to do the other way around.

    The thing is, sure, I prefer buying things from say, GOG. But Epic is horrible, and that’s even just from my consumer perspective with it’s bad client, terrible discoverability and lack of forums or anything. So as a consumer I have no incentive to support Epic, no matter whether I want to give my money to Steam or another place.

    ram, (edited )
    @ram@bookwormstory.social avatar

    You’re right, I did get the pseudo-quote backwards.

    As far as customer experience, that’s one thing, and that’s valid. “I prefer to use Steam because it has features Epic doesn’t, even if one’s a monopoly” though is very different from the quote above, which is distinctly about supporting X company over Y company; not about product difference, but actual support.

    Let’s be real though, if Epic had literally just released Steam but with a good UI people would still boycott it, referencing xenophobic shit like “because china”, angry at tim sweeney, complaining about another launcher, and anything else. The PC market has this really strange and uncomfortable adoration of Steam. It’s console-warrior levels, really.

    I don’t disagree that EGS is a lackluster product in many ways, but it’s pretty clear that the complaints about it by and far are simply justification for a pre-existing opinion, both because of predisposition towards steam, and against “the guys who made that stupid fortnite game”.

    petrol_sniff_king,

    referencing xenophobic shit like “because china”, angry at tim sweeney,

    What… the fuck are you talking about? You are lost in sauce, dude.

    I would rather GOG be made the de facto alternative than Epic. The fact that we have approx. 1 grocery store nearby does not mean we should be excited a Walmart is being built.

    ram,
    @ram@bookwormstory.social avatar

    I’d rather neither, and that companies open up their own storefronts with standalone downloads. Unfortunately we’re in the age of Walmarts for games.

    Nefyedardu,

    referencing xenophobic shit like “because china”

    Disliking a company that aids in genocide makes you "xenophobic"?

    Content that Beijing deems “subversive” has also been forced to be removed from both platforms. Human rights experts are well aware of the ways that these apps have been utilized to spy on Uyghurs and other dissenting voices and are used to persecute these individuals and their family members. Information collected from WeChat can be enough to land one in a concentration camp or prison, as is the case for many Uyghurs who have contact with foreigners or family members who are abroad. Tencent, WeChat’s parent company, is thus clearly complicit in the genocide of Uyghurs, amongst other affronts on human rights. The United States administration has not been alone in acknowledging this, India has also banned far more Chinese apps than were addressed by the U.S. executive order on August sixth.

    ram,
    @ram@bookwormstory.social avatar

    You realize that Tencent doesn’t own Epic. They have a minority stake in them, as they do bluehole, ubisoft, activision blizzard, platinum games, paradox interactive, fatshark, funcom, and discord. They also wholly or majority own supercell, grinding gear games, and riot games.

    No discussion of these other companies devolves into saying that these companies personally aid in genocide. Why is that? As far as I can tell, it’s just because a small contingency of gamers online don’t like how popular fortnite is.

    Nefyedardu,

    So now its not xenophobia, it's because people don't like the popularity of Fortnite? How about lets not handwave all of Tencent's crimes against humanity with "you're just xenophobic" or "you just don't like Fortnite". Nobody of any good conscious should support that company or any of its owned companies (partially or otherwise).

    ram,
    @ram@bookwormstory.social avatar

    Both are true. There can be multiple contributing factors, yes.

    But yes, we shouldn’t support corporations. To that point I wholeheartedly agree.

    These are the kinds of games I love, so it’s is a win as far as I’m concerned. Hopefully they’ll start porting their games to PC faster.

    Rebels_Droppin, do games w Respawn added a new game mode to Titanfall 2 today, just called "???" The description is "Your rockets will blot out the sun" (reference to 300/Battle of Thermopylae)
    @Rebels_Droppin@lemmy.world avatar

    Anyone able to try it out? Not at home at the moment to try myself but curious as to what it is.

    @nanoUFO@sh.itjust.works avatar

    You basically get the energy rocket launcher and the two teams fight each other till they run out of spawn tickets. You can’t switch the primary out for another and no AI or Titans from what I saw. Also it’s 2x XP. I’m not that fond of it tbh maybe I just suck.
