Most of my emulation happens on my phone, because most of the games I like from back in the day play well enough with touch controls and are quick things I can play while waiting for various things while out of the house.

Have you played Stardew Valley? That’s another great game to sink a few years into.

I’ve gotten a few emulated titles on Wii and WiiU in the past. I preferred the Virtual Console collection from those consoles. You’d pay a few dollars for the title you wanted and you had it forever. I’m not a fan of the strange bundling of online services + retro gaming with Nintendo Switch Online… not to mention the expansion pack. I just don’t do enough retro gaming to justify it.

As much as I prefer going legit for gaming, if I get a retro craving I’ll probably just set sail on a trusty PC.

Stillhart, do gaming w What are some good games that have a bad reputation due to unreasonable expectations?

Cyberpunk 2077 is the poster child for this. That game was easily 7/10 even when it came out as a buggy mess. Now that it’s had a few years of polish, it’s much better than 7/10.

But the public perception was bad mostly because of unmet expectations. I don’t know if I’d call them “unreasonable” a they were set by the devs themselves, but either way, the game was and is much better than a lot of people think.

  1. It was announced way way way too early.
  2. Announced “It will be finished when it’s finished” on that way too early reveal.
  3. Years later, it’s not finished, but tough shit, the studio is out of money and the shareholders are pushing for release.
  4. It was released unfinished. Oops.
  5. Years later, it is now closer to the original expectations.
  6. Still no wall-running, so a lot of things they hyped and were expected are still unmet.
  7. The Flathead was supposed to be a thing you kept throughout the game, but they never got the AI pathing right with it, so they dropped it.

@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Well you’re mostly right in your original post, game was a solid 7/10 on release, but the studio just did so much disservice to themselves by hyping it up for nearly a decade before release, and especially hyping a bunch of stuff that never made it into the final product, and on top of all that breaking their own promise to not release until it’s finished.

The whole reason people liked The Witcher 3 was people were convinced the multiple delays to release “made it a better game.” It was at that moment that CDPR built the image that they won’t release a game “until it’s done.” They now had their own studio history working against them when they made the promise of “It’s finished when it’s finished” and people were expecting that. People loved that CDPR was so dedicated to the gamers that they wouldn’t let pesky things like money-men push a game out too early when it’s half-baked. Oops, they did exactly that with their next game, which absolutely shot all that goodwill from the players right through the heart, especially after already waiting nearly a decade for it.

In the end, are the expectations really unreasonable if the studio themselves were the people who built the hype those expectations were based on?

Stillhart,

I get it. I said I didn’t think the expectations were unreasonable.

I think you’re pretty much proving my point, though, that the game is unfairly maligned due to unmet expectations. The game they released, while buggy, was fun. You’re pissed off about a lot of things that aren’t how fun the game is to play.

SnotFlickerman,
@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I’m not really pissed off, I’m just listing off things that were unmet based on the studios own desires and their own promotional materials leading up to release.

There’s still videos out there from when they were hyping wall-running and the Ghostrunner class. *shrugs

I really don’t think it’s unfairly maligned when those expectations were set by the studios themselves.

Stillhart,

Fair enough, we can agree to disagree on the OP’s intent for this post. Thanks for the civil discussion regardless.

I played it on GeForce Now so my experience was pretty solid from the get go. I dislike open world games and I still played the hell out of that game.

tias,

The problem is that they advertise it a certain way and sell preorders, and then the game doesn’t live up to what they advertised. Worse, they didn’t allow anyone to review the console versions which were so unplayable that Sony removed it from the store. It would have been fine if people knew exactly what they were paying for, but they were misled.

Sure, it was unmet expectations but even if the expectation was just 'it works", they still didn’t meet it. And that’s kind of the bare minimum to even be legal when you’re charging money for it. I disagree that the console versions were 7/10 on release - more like 1/10.

Stillhart,

I don’t know what to tell you, I played it on Xbox just fine. Played the whole game through from start to finish and had fun. I believe the issue was with last gen consoles specifically.

And again, I think a lot of the criticism was reasonable. But my point is that the game itself was and is fun, but suffers because of the bad reputation it got at launch thanks to some ill-advised (intentional understatement alert!) decisions by CDPR.

tias, (edited )

Yes, the issue was with last gen consoles. I don’t think that matters to the point I am making, nor that it worked for you personally on your setup. It worked okay for me too, but I was on a high-end PC.

Stillhart,

Seemed to me you called the console version unplayable. You said they didn’t work. I was just correcting that statement for anyone who wasn’t aware that your were bending the truth to make a point.

tias, (edited )

Sony literally pulled the game from the PlayStation Store because of the low quality. At that point it’s not just a subjective opinion but fact, so I resent the claim that I’m bending the truth.

BruceTwarzen,

I just never thought the game was very good in what it's pretending to be.

Zellith,

It was a mess on last gen consoles. It's it even purchasable on them anymore? I know Sony stopped selling it at one point.

smeg, do gaming w What are some good games that have a bad reputation due to unreasonable expectations?

I think almost all “big name” AAA games that announce a new game will be over-hyped, and over-hype makes people disappointed. The higher they fly, the harder they fall; look at everything Blizzard, Bethesda, CDPR, and all the big names have released in the last few years - people expecting something better than their favourite game will always be disappointed!

To coś jak Google Drive, kalendarz, i parę dodatkowych usług w jednym. Do tego jest potrzebne konto.

Disroot Cloud to tak naprawdę oprogramowanie NextCloud, sam też go używam. Można na przykład skonfigurować synchronizację kontaktów i kalendarza z telefonu na clouda, co ułatwia zmianę telefonu lub pracę na wielu urządzeniach (np. kalendarz w telefonie oraz na komputerze).

As a soon potential buyer, how is the track pad for mouse central games? My biggest concern is playing old crpgs with anything like the control scheme on Switch. It was a waste of 30 bucks to get Baldur‘s Gate on Switch for the control alone in my experience.

doggish,

I love it. The key is setting the triggers as the left and right clicks though. I find clicking the trackpad not great for precision. There is a certain level of tinkering/customizing that will be needed to get the most out of the controls.

I’ve played several 20 year old FPS games with absolutely no native controller support and completed them all. If you put in a little work in getting the controls how you like them it makes it hard to play stuff without all the Steam Deck options.

@Macaroni_ninja@lemmy.world avatar

Trackpad mouse controls are great, even for strategy games. You can fine tune them even further if default is not for your liking.

Aside from the Steam OS I think the trackpads are the other big feature for me to choose SD over the competition.

The judgemental attitude and self victimization detract from your post. You’ll find people to be friendlier and more helpful to you if you manage to tone it differently.

Anyway! It sounds like you want games that prioritize being interesting over being popular? Dwarf Fortress would be my immediate thought.

haui_lemmy,

There is no judgement and no self victimisation in my post. Minecraft changed drastically from what it was and I‘m fully allowed to not like it.

But thanks for the suggestion dwarf fortress seems to be quite the thing to try. Will check it out.

I think the best approach is: search, try and stick with games you enjoy the most 🙂
