I’m still not sure what to think of early access. On the one hand, it is too often an excuse to push a buggy mess. That shit is seriously annoying.
But if it’s done right, it can allow developers to make games that are way larger than they otherwise could. In the end development costs money, so with only X million dollars of upfront investment you will run out at some point. With early access they can extend the money pile further, and therefore they can keep extending the scope of the game way beyond what would otherwise be possible as long as the game is popular enough. But then the focus should be on delivering a mostly stable core experience instead of a buggy unbalanced mess.
Imo it worked quite well for games like Factorio, Valheim, Satisfactory. I had like 80 hours in Satisfactory way before the official release, and then another 100 hours or so with friends a bit later (also before the final release). While there were definitely some bugs, the experience overall was worth my money and I was happy to be able to play it already.
I think the remaster looks awful. Not only did they take out the soul, they decided to copy the aesthetic of ESO from the washed-out colors down to the shitty combat animations.
I really wish the people behind ESO would get fired, but they keep getting rewarded.
Plenty of people will never experience these worlds or stories due to the turn-based combat
Not an actual problem. A lot of people simply won’t try those games because they’re old, others because they only know how to play Roblox, Minecraft and Fortnite.
Out of curiosity, which games with TBC have you played? I understand that the most common problem with them is that it’s just a dumb numbers game, bigger number wins, which also means lots of grinding
I’ve attempted pokemon many times because it’s constantly recommended. I’ve tried a few of the turn based final fantasy games. Quite a few indie games. Some persona was attempted at some point…
The only exception to the rule is Dragon Quest and I have no idea why but that’s been consistently the only turn based games I can play for more than a few hours without uninstalling. I’ve only managed to finish one of them but either way that’s still pretty good for me for this genre.
Anyone know if there’s a way to get junk store for bazzite desktop?
It would be great for my partner who has bazzite but doesn’t touch the gaming mode because she has an nvidia card at the moment and it runs like dog shit.
This is her first Linux experience so it would be nice to have something really simple for her to use.
Hey PerfectDark alerted us to your query. We use it on vanilla Arch in Big Picture Mode on our laptops. But we know people use it with Bazzite and some other distros. We also test on Bazzite in a VM.
If you want to set your partner up with it, you’ll have to download/install Decky and then Junk Store. Then to open up the QAM to get to Junk Store you would need to push ctrl+2.
If you have any other questions, queries or need help/guidance please feel free to find us in out discord server (that’s one of two places we regulary patrol). Discrod Invite Link: https://discord.gg/HS9QtX5kXW
Big picture has the same performance issues as gaming mode on nvidia though doesn’t it?
I remember my partner trying it when we first built her pc and it was awful. Although at the time she was on a 1050 Ti temporarily, which also had other issues on the OS. She’s now on a 3050 so maybe it’s better now?
I still don’t understand the sentiment that turn-based doesn’t sell. We just got Clair Obscur breaking expectations.
Part of it is, you have to make the combat interesting visually, tactically, and sometimes even tactilely. Some games get that right: Persona 5, Like a Dragon, etc.
I would also go on a limb and say that 99.9% of strategy in turn taking games is terribly designed. Buff attack, use strongest attack. The one that I really wanted to see more of is a system like Cosmic Star Heroine’s.
As an alternate perspective, early access isn’t some sad, new state of gaming. Done right, it’s a way to hone in on perfecting a systems-driven game that probably doesn’t really have an end. It’s been used to great effect in roguelikes, Kerbal Space Program, and Baldur’s Gate 3. If anything, the problem with the program now is that there are so many finished games to choose from that it’s a harder sell to try out an early access game.
Personally I would like to see the whole remaster/remake trend end as soon as possible. Let’s stop selling the same games multiple times, with considerably increased price tag every time.
While some remakes are decent and make sense (e.g. Resident Evil remakes, though even they aren’t perfect), most are just plain money grabs. Remade into a third-person action adventure with RPG elements, if they weren’t already. With generic Unreal graphics, poor optimization, worse or no modding support.
Old games are great, easy to run, and can be bough for pennies. What exactly makes a remake so appealing? Better graphics? No offence to anyone, but I feel like people who care so much about graphics don’t even play games.
I think I’ll continue to ignore the new rereleases, with very rare exceptions, and keep having a blast with the originals. If game companies can’t be bothered to put in the effort and make some new, interesting titles, then I guess they’ll be making zero money from me.
Nah. I'd rather they make something with the size, scale, mechanics (referring for combat and such but not same abilities, etc.), and storytelling of FFVI. Optionally some fancier graphics and preferably no grinding anywhere.
In case you’re interested, the guy who made those Minecraft and desert maps also made a “cursed halo” mod that goes along with them, and he’s also a YouTuber. Here’s the link to his channel: Inferno Plus
I actually discovered his channel on complete accident a few months ago. The funny part is i had all Cursed Halo, The Desert Map, and the Minecraft ones all installed installed and never realized they were all made by the same guy until i found his channel
