Elite 2: Frontier.

elite dangerous is very close but it doesn’t really capture the seamlessness you get from not having a landing mode or frame shifting. pioneer spaceship sim is a remake in the truest sense of the word, but a remaster would fix the ui issues the original had rather than just rolling with them.

Dangerous was originally supposed to be single player only, then they got so much money they promised to add the mp… And long after the ks finished they switched to online only. I was really pissed off. There’s always X I guess

@lime@feddit.nu avatar

no it wasn’t. i backed the kickstarter. it was always an online game, it just had “solo” and “private” modes. and they didn’t get “so much money”, they got like 120% of their target. they were up against the star citizen kickstarter and that got all the hype.

my main issue with ED is that they focused on building a modern Elite rather than a modern Elite 4. Building upon the ideas of Frontier: First Encounters would have made a very different game.

X is more like Freelancer meets Euro Truck Simulator, in my experience.

I might be misremembering some details, but I kick-started the game too and remember feeling betrayed by Frontier when they announced the game would be online only.

i definitely remember being excited for the possibility to play single player but telling my friends that we could play together if it succeeded. not that the online experience differs significantly from the single player…

Surprisingly accurate cumulative inflation numbers in this meme

tfowinder,

Not according to www.usinflationcalculator.com anyway.

Agreed. I remember there being some controversy around including figures in the game like Poundmaker, whose major mark in history was advocating against the colonial practices his people were submitted to.

Forcing anti-colonial figures to compete in the colonial model of success just doesn’t seem right.

i haven’t bought a single game from them in 20 years.

but i’ve played plenty enough.

Eat my ENTIRE ASS, Nintendo.

fartsparkles,

Yup. I’ve been boycotting Nintendo and EA for the past twenty years. EA due to the destruction of countless talented studios (Origin, Bullfrog, Westwood, Pandemic) and Nintendo when they were caught by the EU doing anti-competitive price fixing (which they still seem to be doing today).

I have missed out on nothing. A game is just a game; a piece of multimedia content to entertain. There are countless astonishing games out there; missing out on a few doesn’t harm you.

People really need to learn to vote with their wallets. And no, I don’t think sailing the high seas and yarharhar legal questionability is acceptable. You don’t need to play the game. There is nothing that important you’re missing out on for the “cultural zeitgeist”.

Piracy still increases the fandom and increases sales (contrary to what IP owners will tell you). So piracy is still supporting these organisations and feeding into their success.

Vote with your wallets. Don’t support business practices and businesses you don’t believe in. Give your time and money to those that deserve it.

Isn’t it crazy that you have to murder and steal in a game like GTA V??? Wouldn’t the game be so much better if Franklin just got a regular 9-5 and you spent the entire game either sitting in traffic or sitting in a cubicle?

I said that I understand that some people want to act unethically in games as a form of escapism for that you can’t do in real life, and that’s fine. But there should be ethical options for people who do want to build an ethical civilisation, as that also makes it more realistic in many ways, not all real civilisations have to start off with a feudal system and slowly progress in exactly the way the tech and civic trees work in civ6.

daggermoon, do gaming w How much fun was the RE:4 remake?

I really enjoyed it. It won’t ever replace the original for me but it was a welcomed reimagining. I miss the cheesy one-liners though.

Lizardking13, do gaming w How much fun was the RE:4 remake?

Absolutely love it. Updated mechanics are solid, you don’t feel like a tank running around. Mercenaries is incredibly fun.

New Zealand is famously a very old country.

@dj1936 Jeśli próbowałeś tylko na jednym komputerze, to może to jest wina starego napędu, słabego lasera itd. Spróbowałbym jeszcze na kilku innych. A jeśli to faktycznie tak ważne, no to firmy odzyskiwania danych... Sczytają sektor po sektorze i odzyskają ile się da, nawet ze zniszczonych płyt.

I want a remake of the original Harry Potter 1 and 2 games from the PS1. Not asking much, anything that looks nicer than this would do
