Okay, so every time I decide I'm going to play a retro game through emulation, a remaster is announced, giving me access and an opportunity to enjoy a better version of the game instead. It happened with Metroid Prime, Link's Awakening, Baten Kaitos, Trails from Zero/to Azure, FF pixel remasters, KOTOR, Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance, and now this I guess... So for the sake of everyone else, what retro games are worth adding to my list?
Look I'm just saying if you have the ability to conjure into our reality remasters and remakes of old games, I'm going to suck your fucking dick if we can get an Illusion of Gaia (snes) remaster sometime soon.
I'd rather them do this one really well than have them do the both of them at the same time. I love Dark Forces 2, it's the Star Wars game I grew up with. I haven't looked but I'm assuming Disney has some involvement due to the ownership and honestly, it makes sense they want to give it a shot at remastering these titles since canon tied in the Dark Troopers, both white and black versions from what I can tell.
Mostly what I'm excited for? Dark Forces 2 multiplayer... oh man, those were the days.
People spend $60+ to go to overpriced movie theaters to eat some food and watch a movie ONCE with a friend or family for about 2 hours, only to no longer have access to it immediately afterwards.
Nobody cares.
People spend $60+ to play a game for potentially tens or hundreds of hours and there’s a chance they might not have access to it years down the road when they likely have forgotten about it anyway.
Seems to be pretty common thing according to the comments in the video. “Funny” thing, indeed.
Though kinda weird if YT intentionally wanted to limit this video’s visibility by dropping it from subscription feed, but then offer it eagerly on the frontpage… what’s the logic on that.
Perhaps it’s a matter of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing. Like the front page and subscription page are fundamentally separated, and the algorithm sees this video doing well, but the subscription page has it shadow banned, but that shadow ban doesn’t transfer over.
I am sorry but Kyle Crane was a really bland character as well, I think in most of everyone thinks so as well. I don’t think I have every seen a opinion/review that actually praised the main character or story of the first game.
And mind you, Dying Light 1 is one of my favourite games of all time.
I recently stumbled upon a mix called "Class War Declaration" while browsing through some old music collections. It reminded me of the raw energy and rebellious spirit found in underground punk scenes. For anyone interested in exploring more unique and edgy mixes, I’d honestly suggest checking out Monkey Mart. They have a surprisingly diverse selection of underground tracks that capture similar vibes. It’s a great place to discover music that challenges the mainstream.
I love dying light. Played first one till the end. Nearly played the second one till the end and now this! :D Only sad part is that the company TenCent managed to grab this game and is sadly infecting it with some ‘enshittification’. Hope tencent will leave them be in the future
What is endshittafication? You mean spyware? Tenent is a contest company. I won’t be surprised if it is mandated by mainland China to have their software companies install bots in their app.
It generally means to degrade a product to maximize profits for shareholders. In this case, it is very likely to be done by locking content or quality of life features behind microtransactions. That is the usual trend with games made by developers after Tencent invests. Hopefully it will just be cosmetics, or just being able to unlock things easier then in game, but even that can be a slippery slope considering they may increase the grind required to absurd levels in order to push people to spend money.
Maybe I am just noticing it more these days (see: Wuchang) but holy crap are the community manager originated “talking points” so ridiculously transparent while also being disturbingly effective.
Ain’t NOBODY ever gave a shit about Kyle Crane. That is right up there with “The Iconic Hayden Pierce’s Hat” in the ubi-verse.
That said: I would like it to be good but I still think 2’s biggest mistake (aside from the hilariously bad story which… 1 wasn’t much better) was that there just isn’t that much water in the “parkour around zombie city” genre and all that wingsuits added was another case of being frustrated when we couldn’t do something we should be able to do (the grappling hook in 1 had similar problems). And apparently they are going for 18 hours of story in Beast? That… is a bold move.
Yeah, wingsuit ruined the second for me. You can literally fly across the map with having to parkour. I liked some of the parkour changes, but they alsmost don’t want you to have to actually parkour in that game.
The writer for dying light was let go for good reason and he was the main talent. This is why dying light two was so plain story wise because the replacement writer wasn’t up to the task.
No reason to hype that the beast writer is up to the task also. Only time will tell.
This libel suit was settled in March 2023, with a settlement that "provides for a seven-figure payment" from the accusers to Avellone. Concurrently the two accusers retracted their original accusations, stating that "Mr. Avellone never sexually abused either of us," and that "We have no knowledge that he has ever sexually abused any women." They also claimed in the same statement that their previous public statements with regards to Avellone had been "misinterpreted".
Shit like this is why people need to knock it off with the “iT’s A sCaM” bullshit and embrace crypto. This is the exact kind of issue that using cryptocurrency prevents.
We need to federate money and put it back in the hands of the people. You would think that Lemmy would be into that idea, but instead y’all act like crypto killed your dog and fucked your wife. I don’t get it.
(And before you use the waste of electricity argument, remember that proof of stake is a thing.)
Edit: Well this went exactly how I expected. Just nothing but ignorant downvotes. Not even a single attempt at a decent counter-argument. You people and your hive mentality suck.
