Looks very janky. There are a lot of moments where the AI just looks completely broken like in 1:12 where he instantly goes from being on the floor to an attack animation. I guess it’s not surprising considering it’s in development hell.

CryptidBestiary, do gaming w The Completionist Charity Lied

It’s such a blow to the gut to watch this. I don’t often watch The Completionist’s content but when I do, it was enjoyable and he has such a following. To taint and take advantage of the concept of charity is so egregious. Hopefully it doesn’t deter people from charities but instead do more extensive research on the charitable organizations and foundations on their own

Copied from reddit user u/iamshieldstick on reddit because I hate having to watch an 8m video for a 1m read of info.

Summary

  • Thank you for making the game surpass 1 million copies sold!
  • The highest priority for the team is developing the DLC and working on the sequel. Brainstorming and exploring different aspects of the projects.
  • Planning another patch in November (exact dates are still being discussed).
  • Expect some balances in the weapon assembly system
  • Rising dodge will be provided as a default skill, eliminating the need to unlock it from the P-Organ. This is to ease the difficulty in the early stages of the game specifically against the shovel puppet (aka Pancake Bot).
  • Polendina will sell 2 additional Quartz from the first stage of his shop.
  • They will give Alidoro costumes to all players as a token of gratitude, including his mask
  • They will introduce an extra slot for facial accessories, enabling the wearing of hats and glasses at the same time.
  • They are planning to add new wearables in the game - the Alchemist’s Hat (Venigni Hat) and a brand new pair of glasses!
  • Aside from these, several other elements are currently in preparation. For a comprehensive overview of the final contents, please refer to the upcoming patch notes
  • They are grateful to the players for praises and compliments on the music. They are currently in the process of preparing the release of the soundtrack. The collection will have nearly all the music from Lies of P, totaling more than 60 tracks.
  • They are also working more diligently and investing considerable thought and effort to meet the expectations in the Wo Long Fallen Dynasty crossover and make the collaboration of the highest quality.
  • Working on DLC - they are hiring new developers to join their team.
  • Shared some sketches from the DLC. These images are merely the tip of an iceberg. Let your imagination go wild and anticipate what’s to come.
Carighan, do games w Starfield, is it getting review bombed?
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

To me it’s less about the user reviews, and more about how as now some time is passing, listening to professional reviewers in podcasts etc, more and more the mood turns… tepid?

It’s not that anyone is underwhelmed. More just… whelmed.

Andyzoot, do games w Skull & Bones Beta Preview: Yes, We Really, Finally, Actually Played This Game | IGN

I can't believe how much this game has missed the mark.
Assassin's Creed: Black Flag but with none of the Assassin/Templar shenanigans. That's all they had to do...

Frogster8,

That’s pretty much all I’ve wanted in a game since I played AC4 or the pirates of the carribean on xbox.

So much so that while at uni doing comp sci I started trying to get into game dev just to learn that knowing how to program was such a fraction of requirement, I couldn’t make 2D or 3D assets at all, just don’t have the flair for it and didn’t want to use bought assets.

Still waiting for somebody to make my dream game

dan1101, do games w No Man's Sky Echoes Update Trailer

I wish I liked this game. It is exactly the sort of game I like, with seamless planetary landings and such. But I just have no enthusiasm for it.

meepmeep,

As wide as an ocean, as deep as a puddle sadly.

As soon as you’ve been to like 5 planets, you’ve experienced everything. At least they have base building I guess. Too bad their VR port was trash.

Saledovil,

And a lot of the features don’t have a reason to engage with them. E.g. Vehicles. You get a spaceship at the start, so most of the vehicles you get later are very much a downgrade. And that Exo Mech which had an entire update dedicated to it. To me, it just illustrated why mecha are a silly concept, namely everything you can do with them can be done better with other vehicles. The game is basically a toybox, and none of the toys really keep my attention.

orbitz,

Just wanted to comment that land vehicles have their purpose because take off in the ship takes a noticeable amount of fuel (though not as bad as it used to be) It’s not bad but you can drive around to get resources in vehicle much easier (assuming you’re trying to explore a bit). Not saying you’re completely wrong or anything, once you get so far you rarely need to go resource gathering anyways.

Base building is kinda fun if you’re into it (plus you get to build the inside of your freighter like a base) and there’s lots of missions and a decent chunk of story somewhere in there. It’s pretty shallow but more like a wading pool than a puddle at least. It’s fun to relax with and wander but I tend to lose interest before I can find the new ships and all so haven’t even got a living ship yet had it since release.

dan1101,

That’s what they say about Elite Dangerous, but I played that game 254 hours. No Man’s Sky held me for maybe 5 or 10.

FracturedEel,

I got really into for like 100 hours way after they fixed everything and then I see these cool updates but don’t really have any interest in touching it again

stappern,

Because it’s still not good.

arefx, do games w ZeroSpace look like a good StarCraft2 spiritual successor

I don’t trust blizzard to make a new StarCraft game that’s good anyways.

Deestan,

Blizzard bled out and died long ago. A machine puppeteers its corpse around these days, dancing for money.

Really excited for this one. I haven’t played that much Jet Set Radio but I’ve been itching for a game like that for a while.

Flamekebab, do games w Total War: Warhammer 40k
@Flamekebab@piefed.social avatar

Could have done with a bit less of a focus on space marines.

False,

More than 30 seconds of actual gameplay footage would have been nice too.

goferking0,

I was surprised they showed any gameplay.

Idk how they’re gonna do the world video game

TachyonTele, do games w Marvel’s Wolverine - Gameplay Trailer | PS5 Games

You’d think someone could think up something better than a button mashing brawler for superheroes after 35+ years of video games. But apparently not.

galbraith,

Midnight suns isn’t a button mashing brawler.

RebekahWSD,
@RebekahWSD@lemmy.world avatar

Midnight Suns was a delight and I’m sad we’re probably never ever getting a sequel.

TachyonTele,

I could never get into it because the game runs like crap in the mansion area in the beginning of the game.

Tattorack,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

Midnight Sun is incredibly boring, though. It’s like 75% VN type crap and maybe 15% actual gameplay.

psx_crab,

I mean i wouldn’t mind having dating sim with Wolverine, but going frenzy at the front line is his specialty.

Maybe Dispatch might fit your criteria?

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds,

the trailer are mostly from cutsenes, the actual gameplay is more like Animal Crossings

TachyonTele, (edited )

In that case I’m pre ordering it!

Tattorack,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

It’s The Wolverine we’re talking about here. If there is any hero that deserves a brawler game it’d be him.

Besides, we’ve also had open world story driven adventure games with Insomniac’s Spiderman games.

TachyonTele,

This is true. I don’t think anyone wants a stealth game. My problem is spiderman was also a brawler, they always are. But you’re right, Wolverine is probably the one that should be a brawler.

Cethin, do games w [Fredrik Knudsen] Unofficial Skyrim Patch | Down the Rabbit Hole

I love the “you can’t modify my mod because it undermines authoritative intent” and then modifying things like the standing stones because “oh, that’s not the way it’s supposed to work.” Obviously he doesn’t even believe what he says. He just says whatever he needs to to “win” like a true narcissist.

pyre,

the idea of a modder not allowing others to mod their work is hilarious on its own.

that’s like a thief going, “hey don’t touch the things i stole! have some respect for property rights, yeah?”

NoodlePoint,

Not just a thief, the bastard thinks he’s better than the entirety of Bethesda.

pyre,

i mean that’s not a high bar but

Kolanaki, do games w Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

secure boot required

Wow. Might be the first BF game I pass on even if they eventually give it away for free.

NuXCOM_90Percent,

There are a lot of good reasons for secure boot both in game and in general. If your distro does not support it then that should be a complaint directed towards the maintainers. And… getting that through Proton is a different mess.

But EA have been spending the past year or so actively updating older Battlefields (I want to say all the way back to 3?) to actively block linux/proton. For whatever reason, they actively want to block anything but Windows for their games.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

There are a lot of good reasons for secure boot both in game and in general.

Name one.

cadekat,

Secure boot can be used as part of a chain that eventually ends with unlocking your cryptographic keys only if the software stack has not been modified.

Sure, for most people that’ll make little difference, but it is an actual benefit.

NuXCOM_90Percent,

Yup. Securing your “supply chain” is a VERY VERY good thing to do from a security standpoint and secure boot is one step toward that.

pathief,
@pathief@lemmy.world avatar

The problem is that I have not yet met a single human who enables a bios password. An attacker can simply boot the bios and disable it.

NuXCOM_90Percent,

First, Yo. Doesn’t even need to be a good password.

Second, what you are describing is something very different. Outside of very rare situations (most of which theoretical or specifically targeting a specific system by a state level actor), to be able to “boot the bios and disable it” would generally mean the machine is already VERY compromised or the bad actor has physical access to the machine.

A good way of thinking of it is that secure boot isn’t the lock on the door. It is the peephole that you look through to make sure that the person with your pizzas is from Georgio’s AND you actually ordered pizza. Rather than just opening the door because “Yo, free food”.

On its own? It doesn’t do much. But it goes a LONG way towards improving security when combined with other tools/practices.

frongt,

No, they can’t. The BIOS prompts the user to confirm the change on reboot. If the change is not confirmed, it doesn’t happen.

cadekat,

Hi, I’m cadekat, and I have a bios password and custom keys in my secure boot. Pleasure to meet you :3

pathief,

I admire you, friend!

WEFshill202,

Certainly not cheat prevention if this video is anything to go by lol

RightHandOfIkaros,

Kolanaki,

I got it for free. 🤷‍♂️

I haven’t paid for a BF game since BC2. 🤣

elvis_depresley,

time to move back to cash

gonzo-rand19,
@gonzo-rand19@moist.catsweat.com avatar

You're going to start mailing cash to Valve with a little note listing your Steam account and what games you want?

XTL,

Works for something like PSN. I see cards for sale in local shops. They can presumably be used to claim some funny money in the service that you can pay with.

Steam could probably do the same, but would suck for a smaller operation.

There used to be some cash to BTC machines that would work with any service.

gonzo-rand19,
@gonzo-rand19@moist.catsweat.com avatar

A gift card isn't cash, legally or literally. Gift cards also require processors. So this could happen again with gift cards, just with a different set of processing companies.

So what's your answer? Cheques, money orders, cash in the mail? Or maybe MasterCard, Visa, and their ilk shouldn't legally be allowed to limit legal purchases that haven't been flagged as fraud.

FartMaster69,

Steam literally already does sell those.

elvis_depresley,

For starters, you can buy a steam gift card with cash. Then buy whatever you like with the card.

But i actually meant it more broadly, you can also use cash for other transactions where you are physically present.

I dislike how much power visa and mastercard have gotten, and cash is probably the best alternative for offline private transactions.

gonzo-rand19,
@gonzo-rand19@moist.catsweat.com avatar

Any gift card still needs to be processed by a processor, who could get all up in arms just like MasterCard and Visa.

I mentioned digital transactions because that's what has been restricted in essentially all cases. They don't seem to care if you buy porn in person, they just don't want you buying porn online.
