Embarrassing.

I’ve heard of day 0 bugs but jesus guys, come on. Expectations were already low.

Sterile_Technique, do games w Sony claims it delisted the KoTOR remake trailer ‘due to music license expiring’
@Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world avatar

Here’s hoping the project isn’t scrapped, but I’m not convinced they’d scrub all mention of it over a music license.

tuckerm, do games w Remedy says its Max Payne remakes are ‘a big, big project’

But that screenshot proves that no remake is necessary. Does that not look perfect already? Literally pictures of real people slapped onto 3D models. Photo realism, done. Perfected. No one else, besides the classic Mortal Kombat games, has had the courage to make a game out of straight up photographs of real people. Max Payne had the best graphics. The MOST graphics. THE PHOTO GRAPHICS.

Hazdaz, do nintendo w Nintendo reportedly showed a demo of the ‘Switch 2’ console at Gamescom which included visuals comparable to the PS5 and Xbox Series X.

I don’t doubt it… Nintendo is always years behind.

The PS5 came out in 2020 and this Switch2 is probably a year away. So that would make their hardware be roughly 4 years old in terms of power. Plus if this is roughly the size of the current Switch, it won’t be pushing more than HD-resolutions (current Switch is only a 720 display), so getting PS5-level graphics on a 1080 screen these days is not particularly complicated or expensive.

Vathsade,

Current switch does 1080 docked already , so while I hope it’ll have at least 4k menus and 4k light games, I’d settled for 1080 again with some sorta more advanced AA for first party games

Hazdaz,

it’s screen is 720. I would not expect Nintendo to go above 1080 on the screen and maybe output a scaled-up 4K when docked.

Psyduck_world,

God of war 2016 PS 4 original setting at 720p on steam deck is about 30 fps. On ROG Ally afew frames less if you run it at 15 watts, at 45 watts Ally can probably do 720p at 50ish fps but less than an hour of battery. Ally is the top of line 2023 AMD tech apu and cost $700. Mobile technology is amazing right now, but it’s just not at a level where it can do 3 years old desktop graphics at a reasonable cost/power consumption.

Hasn’t BioWare been having a shit ton of problems these past few years? Hope they’re able to clean up and get back to making some great games.

Stovetop,

Correct.

Funny because I stray away from anything that associates itself with AAA

etchinghillside,

Because you moved on to AAAA?

warmaster,

Once you go Ubi, you can’t go back to a life without climbing towers.

sylver_dragon,

Well, the world should have moved on to IPv6 a long time ago.

Yeller_king,

I’m holding out for AAAAA.

Phen,

Any such experiences in the last few years? I think the last AAA games I’ve played where RDR2 and Spider Man.

UndercoverUlrikHD,
@UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev avatar

I rarely play games nowadays and even more rarely new games. Baldur’s Gate 3 is the first one that comes to mind in recent years.

God of War, Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Avowed

Phen,

Oh yeah I played Elden Ring too. Avowed I tried but didn’t like; the other two really aren’t my type of game.

fyzzlefry,

Meh

Goretantath, do games w MultiVersus officially closes down and is delisted today

The reason that games are even hosted on “official” servers like these is to ensure the company can take the game down once the devs run out of time o the contract they made for all the IP’s they use in said game. Otherwise its possible AND has been done before to let the players machines spin up a server each match.

Goretantath,

The only issue was having to have a “matchmaking” server but even then, steam has the tools to replace that entirely.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

That could be one reason, at least in a game such as MultiVersus with different IPs being used.

But they still lock down servers to their own shit when they own it all anyway and it’s because they also sell you crap to have in the game. If you had your own server, you could just give yourself the stuff they sell since all those things are still in the game somewhere and the only barrier between you and the content is their servers checking to see if you paid for them.

They invented a collectors edition? Much innovative.

kozy138, do games w Palworld confirms ‘disappointing’ game changes forced by Pokémon lawsuit

Wouldn’t a game mechanic/animation like that be equivalent to a stunt in a movie?

Like, imagine if a film director wanted to blow up a car in his movie, but was getting sued by Paramount because Michael Bay already blew up a car in Transformers.

    Not that prices will be much better for long

    Won’t they, though? Even disregarding the option of piracy, while new games will be $70 or $80 or whatever at launch, they go down eventually and Steam pricing has always been better than console.
