vxx, do gaming w Higher difficulties in every single RPG.

I like XCOM for that. They designed the game around the hard mode and made it easier for the other modes.

TheAristocrat,

I totally agree. It’s one thing to just decrease the enemy health, but you can decrease their damage or aim like stormtroopers. On top of that, research, recovery, and build times can be decreased or resource costs and income adjusted. There are so many ways to make the game easier or harder.

If a game deals with difficulty with this method, I’ll probably end up using cheats in the easiest gaming mode. Hopefully the story won’t suck.

If only they would make posts that aren’t yes or no questions, or that they could easily Google. Maybe even keep all their bull shit to one post since it is all about the same fucking games over and over

We need a new way to symbolise a good game like QQQ for Quality Quality Quality or something. AAA just means unfinished mess that cost a lot which you pay extra for.

Ephera,

The closest approximation we currently have (and likely will ever have) are game ratings…

bokherif, do games w How to decide what kind of controller one should purchase?

I would just go for a PS5 controller. You get type c charging, great haptics and good compatibility (either via Steam or ds4windows). Only issue is the stick drift

I didn’t care too much about controllers until I used one of those. Fucking amazing controllers. I was playing Cyberpunk 2077 the other day on it and when driving you felt it shift gears on the R2. Fantastic use of the haptics.

bokherif,

Yeah the trigger haptics do not work on PC though, although it’s great on PS5.

Trigger haptics can work on PC but it is game by game/implementation by implementation. Returnal works when connected via USB but not wirelessly (unless you enable Steam Input for DualSense, but that completely removes haptic trigger capabilities, turns the touchpad into buttons, and switches to Xbox button glyphs), but Ratchet & Clank works wired or wirelessly (without Steam Input enabled for DualSense). The DualSense support on PC is kind of hit or miss, I wish they’d just standardize a library that offers the base features wirelessly – the controller is really nice.

CptEnder,

Yeah I use a DS5E and it’s a really well engineered controller, and I’ve always preferred the DS ergonomics. Just gotta use DS4Windows tool for some games remapping. But basically really whatever design ergonomic you prefer and buy that, they all support Windows now even Switch Pro.

My family would play this as a group. We napped at least the first 12 levels, maybe more. My father loved making maps of old video games. I’m certain that his map of the thieve’s cave in Adventure is still floating around the house somewhere.

The extra A comes from the MBAs adding their grain of salt that no one wants.

So the extra A is for ‘Asshole’?

I mean, the only AAAA game, as called by Ubisofts CEO, was complete dogshit. So technically all AAAA games are bad :)

That’s what I like about raid bosses in Star Wars: The Old Republic where the difficulty changes most of the boss mechanics

yamanii,
@yamanii@lemmy.world avatar

That would be great for me since what I hate about raiding in MMOs is precisely that bosses feel more like a puzzle than a skill check with various moments of instakill if you didn’t figure out what to do in under 30 seconds.

It’s either this, or they just scale up the damage by some arbitrary factor, that is a quantum leap from what the bad guys were doing originally.

oh? he did 10 damage in vanilla?

Varyag, do games w Does AAAA just mean awful triple A games now?

Yes, yes it is. The term coined by the Ubishit CEO trying to cover his own ass by claiming that Skull and Bones took so much time and money to make, and was being sold for higher than $60 (while still being a pile of shit) by saying it was a “AAAA game” and the term stuck. I mean, it’s own very first use was to describe a terrible AAA game. It’s only natural.

LucasWaffyWaf,

Oh hey, I forgot about that game’s existence until now. It’s name is so generic I used to accidentally call it Sea of Thieves, cause that’s a more memorable name. Also a more memorable game.
