Vopyr, do games w Do you think Square Enix should remake other Final Fantasy entries?
@Vopyr@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t trust them to create new remakes, to be honest, only if they are as close to the original as possible, but I doubt they will do that, unfortunately.

Despite common sense I bought The Hundred Line at launch, but thankfully it is indeed a very solid game. To the point I spent 25 hours playing it over 3 days. It’s more or less a Danganronpa game, so it might be too cringy for some people, but having gained enough tolerance to those things it’s wonderful. Probably better than DR, but it’s apples and oranges in some aspects.

One “problem” is that the game is really easy, and the whole SRPG part is mostly to enchance the story. It’s still really fun, I think that like with Kirby they intentionally wanted a game that anyone can approach. And though I’m just getting started it also does indeed appear to have 100 endings, I ended up on the romance route from my first set of decisions…

Do the clouds change dynamically or otherwise, in that first picture? Or is it like a static texture of clouds that possibly moves?

I honestly haven’t stopped to consider it. The Wind in this game has a lot of detail too it, so i wouldn’t at all be surprised if the clouds were Dynamic. I’ve also noticed that the Sky can be clear sometimes to depending on weather/season. But that could be just a region of the texture or there are a few different textures. if i had to take a guess i’d say it’s dynamic though. Ubisoft cheaps out on a few things, but graphics doesn’t seem to be one of them

victorz,

Nice!

Just played through OneShot.

Very good little game. I did take a bit of fiddling to get to work properly in Linux, but worth it.

Fun fact “Velium” is just a brand name for Diazepam. As is Valium.

Oh!

Here I was thinking it was an off-brand brand for it!

CrazyLikeGollum,

Looks like it’s just the brand it’s sold under in that market.

I was more just pointing out that they are the same thing, since it wasn’t clear if you knew that or not and I think it’s important that people know what the drugs they’re taking actually are. Tends to be safer that way.

Hopefully, you’re either taking it as prescribed or having fun responsibly. Benzos can be fun, but they’re also some of the most addictive substances on the planet.

Also, these articles you’re posting are some quality writing.

Yokozuna, do games w Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games
@Yokozuna@lemmy.world avatar

If anything this has raised my bar for TES 6. I didn’t play 4 just as you did and sunk an ungodly amount of time into 5. I also played fallout 3 at the time of launch so I feel like I’m fairly versed in Bethesdas formula.

The progress from 4 to 5 is obvious. They put a lot of love into making Skyrim better than its predecessor in tons of ways. With the absolute flop of Starfield, they’re putting all their chips into TES 6 and they know it. They’re going to stick to the core gameplay that everyone expects, but how they expand and improve upon it is really what will make or break them. If they get the story telling down, it’s all up to the mechanics of the game and design of the world.

My bar has absolutely raised by them putting this remaster out.

BreakerSwitch,

I don’t think I agree on them going all in for TES6, I think oblivion and the upcoming fallout 3 remake (confirmed by court docs ages ago) are probably going to lean into monetized mods, just like skyrim has been for the last decade. Skyrim’s creation club made it a pseudo live service game, where they can maintain bethesdas tiny team size (Relative to most AAA devs) and still get ongoing payout for a decade or more, letting players generate new content to buy into. Optimistically this means they’ll have plenty of funding for TES6 to hire some decent writing staff and put together something great that’s presumably been at least thought about the last 14 years since Skyrim, but it might just be going into Microsoft’s coffers.

I can’t put Oblivion down but I keep scrapping my character. Started as a stealth build but stealth isn’t as fun as combat. Made an unarmed fighter and was very impressed with how deadly I was but ultimately decided new weapons and spells are a fun treat that I wouldn’t get to have and I regretted how wacky I made his face.

Presently I’m doing a melee/magic type and I accidentally made him look uncannily like Wynn Duffy from Justified. He’s less capable than previous builds but kind of sucking at what he does just feels right with that face.

Islets is SO GOOD! Glad to see someone else that feels the same! Was very surprised how good it was and feel like it didn’t get the love it deserves.

Reminds me of The Legend of Zelda’s Satori/Lord of the Mountain. Are they based on the same Japanese lore or reference perhaps?

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I could definitely see them being inspired by the same creature. they have that same kind of ambience to them. I believe all the Legendary Sumi-e in the game are based on Mythology too in some way (i can’t say for certain though), so i wouldn’t say it’s too far of a reach

ChronophobianQ, do gaming w Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of April 27th

Roots of Pacha. Great game. It’s like stardew valley, but you play as a member of a migrating hunter-gatherer tribe that finally settles down to discover farming and slowly starts building a village.

DannyBoy, do gaming w Knock yourself out

I don’t know a single person that has a PS5. Apparently they sold well, but to who?

zammy95,

Pretty much all of my friends have one lol. To each their own though

DannyBoy,

I didn’t mean it as an insult but a genuine question. I still play games online to this day with friends joining in on PS4 and Xbox One. I bought Stray when it came out on the PS4 and that was less than three years ago. And not ever seeing or hearing about anyone buying a PS5 it seems to me like the Xbox One/PS4 generation is still going today.

MrScottyTay,

I got one, I know 3 coworkers that have one. And I have at least 5 friends with one too.

I also have about half the amount of ps5 games that I have PS4 I think too. Physical at least anyway. I have more digital not counting PS+ Extra.

I’m also not a console only guy. I have a bazzite PC for a lot of games. But I prefer the big story ones to be played on my living room on my big 4k TV with my Dolby atmos setup. Plus every now and then you get an absolute gem like Astro Bot or the visual wonder if the Demon’s Souls remake (how have they not given Bloodborne the same treatment like what the heck)

tyfpgg,

I wasn’t going to buy it. But I’m a fan of Yoshi-P’s work, so when he released FFXVI on PS5, I bought the bundle. So far that’s the only game I’ve played and beat on PS5. I do use the PS5 to play some gacha games like Genshin Impact and Infinity Nikki (and previously Star Rail before dropping that).
