ptsdstillinmymind, do gaming w Riot lays off over 500 staff, with Legends of Runeterra and Forge indie initiative teams hit hard

Instead of cutting CEO and executive pay let’s fire some of the employees. - sounds about Capitalism

That's why I honestly respect Nintendo execs because they will take pay cuts over laying off staff when the going is tough! They might occasionally do shitty things or make out of touch decisions but at least they care about the health of their companies. Game companies can't make good games without talent.

Eggyhead, do gaming w Bayonetta dev's Apple Arcade exclusive World of Demons will no longer be playable next month
@Eggyhead@kbin.social avatar

I had subbed to Arcade back when this came out just to see if I’d be into such a service. I even bought a backbone one. I played just a little bit of WoD, about half of that adorable diorama JRPG from the final fantasy guy, and maybe a few minutes of a lot of other stuff. It’s all really good stuff, I just really can’t get into gaming on a phone. My backbone has been largely untouched for years.

ApathyTree, do gaming w Be careful, recording Baldur's Gate 3's adult scenes on Xbox might net you a temporary ban
@ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Does Microsoft not have the ability to block recording specific scenes like PlayStation does?

Can’t they just block recording that and call it a day instead of “surprise you broke some asinine rule you didn’t know about!”

TwilightVulpine,

This is also bad.

They approved the game to be on the platform, banning people for recording scenes is ridiculous.

To this day I resent Sony for not allowing me to stream Persona 5 to my sister, which is a series we used to play together a lot.

Lemonyoda, do gaming w Starfield will be getting a bunch of fresh features including "new ways of traveling" next year

Aka the Game releases Feature incomplete in Beta (early Access) Status.

MS gamepass does hinder Quality Games. Same Story for forza Motorsport, redfall and whatnot…

This game was originally going to release two years ago without Microsoft making sure it got more QA than Bethesda is known for. Microsoft or not, the game design and feature completeness likely wouldn't have moved an inch.

Hi-Fi Rush, for a counter example, was one of the best games of the year.

Lemonyoda,

I have just looked Into my year on Xbox (and Nintendo Switch…) and it turns out, i played starfield around 50h hours.

So, it did something right regardless. You are probably right those

Ich becomes increasingly frustrating to watch all These big AAA Milestones turn out mediocre.

The AA space is where its at, See your example of Hifi rush.

I would disagree with your 50 hour Starfield assessment, only on the basis of Todd Howards own comment that the game was made to be played for a long time.

50 hours for a game meant to be played for a long time just isn't very long at all. Heck, I enjoyed my time in Starfield and I had more than 50 hours. However I could not continue with NG+, it was just godawful.

For a game meant to be played extensively it failed in most regards.

Release Blasphemous 2!

FooBarrington,

I’m confused, since I’ve already completed the game. What do you mean?

Seytoux,

Look for blasphemous 2 trailer in YouTube, it is in the making and should be released soon. Was announced more then a year ago I think.

FooBarrington,

As I’ve said, I already played through Blasphemous 2, it was released a couple of weeks ago (August 24th).

Release Blasphemous 3!

FooBarrington,

I’d be up for it! Though I hope they do some more grotesque bosses. They were the coolest parts of the first one, and the second one was a lot more tame for the bigger bosses.

Seytoux,

Oh sorry, I misunderstood your comment and apparently totally missed the release.

Cool, as soon as I return to my home city I’ll buy it. Thanks!

FooBarrington,

You’re welcome, and have fun!

Wirlocke, do games w Baldur's Gate 3's Astarion says there's a tough to find two hour section no one has played yet (Updated: It has been found)

I’m confused at how the Blood of Lathander wouldn’t be found on launch, there are so many triggers for it.

Reading the locked books, talking to the dead Tiefling, reading the plaque on the statue that’s dead center in the building. It’s hard to avoid honestly.

xep, do games w Steam’s latest hit is a generic F2P co-op third-person shooter – but not the one that launched last week

I understand Nexon, and F2P, and all that, but having played this in Closed Beta I found it to be a really enjoyable game. Hopefully they don't mar it with overaggressive monetization.

I feel like this was a missed opportunity. If they had done this on release, they’d likely have sold much better.

Kolanaki, do games w Starfield gets low-spec PC mod for those gaming on potatoes
!deleted6508 avatar

I’m wondering if this would help get a solid 60 outside of interiors/around loads of NPCs. Only my GPU doesn’t meet requirements, and it’s still playable. But is mostly 30-40’s unless I’m in a small interior or an interior with not many NPCs. The NPCs are more bound to CPU so I’m not sure if having lower res/filesize textures would help. I don’t think the VRAM is the problem.

sturmblast,

it will certainly help

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

It’s a little better. I’m pretty sure it’s gotta be the NPCs now. Video card is handling it all quite nicely, despite not having RTX or even DLSS support, but everywhere there are crowds it slows down by 20 fps. Currently just standing in the main road of Neon and it’s around 40-45, dropoing to 35 when I run, but get a solid 60 when no NPCs are visible by looking up at an animated billboard or something.

sturmblast,

what CPU do you have?

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

A Ryzen 5 3600x

sturmblast,

yeah you might want to maybe look at upgrading that that might give you the most benefit from what I understand

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

It’s literally the recommended AMD CPU for this game.

sturmblast,

that doesn’t mean a whole lot these days it seems

Space Engineers has a planet, where you can burn fuel and fly for hours from Earth and land to. However, there is no story there. Choose the game that is more interesting to you.

jlow, do gaming w Starfield's planets are an illusion: you can't land on them

O no, Pluto is considered a “planet” in Starfield? 🙄

Stuka, do gaming w Starfield topped 230,000 concurrent players on Steam, and it’s not officially out yet

Is that supposed to be impressive? They are selling the game and allowing purchasers to play. If course there’s gonna be people playing.

As a regular user of this service, it's very good, although not perfect, a few bugs, some ux issues with the different game providers, but nothing unsolvable. The customer support is surprisingly reactive too.
