Bells, do gaming w I have been getting into emulation (discussion)

I used emulation to show a bunch of old PS1, PS2, and original Xbox games I had when I was younger to my partner. It was a fun evening, and they actually enjoyed most of them. They didn’t really get into gaming until the Wii, so it was nice to see their reactions to some of the older stuff.

But I agree with the other comments here, it should really only be used for preservation or things you can’t purchase from retail anymore.

They made an animated web series that follows Kenway:

They made a similar style game with Assassin’s Creed: Rogue and with different characters. I enjoyed it, but not nearly as much as the original.

And IV will likely get a remake:

Hmmm I love Rogue, it’s such an emotional journey and to me the most compelling and interesting story-wise, seeing an Assassin turn into a Templar and underlining the hubris of the Order of Assassins

curbstickle, do gaming w TIL I can restore games on Steam, which I removed years ago

The bigger issue to me are games that were removed from steam and I can no longer get.

Which is why I don’t bother buying on steam anymore. If I’m buying, its DRM-free only.

Chuymatt,

I’ve yet to have that happen, I think. What games have you experienced that with?

Midnitte,

Nearly 900 games have been delisted.

There’s also Fable 3, which you can’t buy anymore because it used Games for Windows, which resulted in no more CD keys.

blindsight,

Right, but Steam still let’s people who own delisted games download and play them forever. (Well, assuming they’re not live service games with no servers, but that’s not a Valve problem.)

thingsiplay,

I believe you can still activate keys for delisted games. Meaning if you find a shop that sells them, you might be lucky. I never did that, just read reports of this. So can’t actually verify if this is true. Provided there is no additional third party launcher or activation that hinders this.

Baguette,

One example are most telltale games which still are still playable but not purchaseable (poker night at the inventory being the most recognizable for me since the associated tf2 items are also now that much harder to obtain)

curbstickle,

Honestly don’t remember the names, its been… Quite a while. I’ll have to open and check.

Iirc it was also some I stored as gifts that became unknown or something, and I wasn’t able to send them.

TachyonTele,

I have multiple delisted games in my library that I can still download and play anytime I want. They just don’t have a store page anymore.

@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

because they enjoy it?

monsterpiece42, do gaming w My personal ranking of every one of the FlatOut games

Cool write up!

I recommend you play TRAIL OUT, which is a spiritual successor to the best FLATOUT games. I like it a lot and would love to hear your thoughts!

binchoo, do games w Why Do People Still Play Destiny 2?

People play the game because they like to play it? Just because the main story is over doesn’t mean that people don’t enjoy the game anymore. There are plenty of games without a clear and direct story that are very popular because people just enjoy the gameplay.

swordgeek, do games w Are we ever going to see a remake of any Bethesda game?

Have you played Morrowind? Best Elder Scrolls game by far, in my opinion.

And so hard to play, so yeah.

Not gonna happen. It’s a lot of work, and they’d rather spend it making new games (for legitimate reasons).

They have a homage to TB in a game that doesn’t have a FoV slider

Fall Out 4 was fine, definitely didn’t fail. Your expectation of games is way too high.

xhrit,

every beth game has always had game breaking bugs on release
