orenj, do games w Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Now Promotes Microtransactions When You Swap Weapons
@orenj@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

honest question. What’s stopping mainstream gamers from just playing the best codblops for the rest of their lives? Is there really any draw to these newer releases every time?

slaneesh_is_right,

The cod cycle is pretty much the same as fifa games. They make a new game, the hype is big, everyone plays it because the cool streamers play it. Then the hype dies down, people realise it’s the same game, they don’t want to work on the game and they get by with selling micro transactions until the game dies completely just in time for the new game to come out and the cycle repeats. It’s quite fascinating to be honest that it works every time.

Simple, stop buying Call of Duty games. And for fucks sake, stop purchasing microtransactions.

I’ve boycotted Activision ever since I read how their treatment of a female employee led to her suicide.

GreyEyedGhost,

Space is almost free, and it’s a good cue to what you’re going to find. It’s how I tell my PerfectDark posts apart.

Pokémon Crystal (Polished Crystal ROM hack). It’s amazing. It’s a Vanilla+ experience of Crystal. The most notable thing to me is It’s now 60fps. Then all the QoL improvements but all the changes are within Pokémon lore. It feels like a GBA game now and takes my top spot as favorite Pokémon game

Gryficowa, do publicystyka w Jan Śpiewak: To nie Nawrocki wygrał. To liberalny establishment przegrał.
@Gryficowa@szmer.info avatar

Dlatego libki nie są przyjaciółmi lewaków, bo wolą żyć w ignorancji i swojej bańce, gdzie wszystko co myślą jest “Prawdą”, a ci co to negują są źli (Bo niszczą status quo)

Liberalizm trzyma tylko status quo, a “Mniejsze zło” to bujda w celu jego utrzymania, po tym co widziałam w USA i jak libki potraktowały grupy, którym próbowały wmówić, że “Ich chcą chronić” to ich wspieranie dyskryminowanych to fasada w celu poczucia wyższości (Ciekawe kogo polskie libki będą obwiniać za wygraną Nawrockiego, ale domyślam się, że osoby LGBT+ i zoomerów…)

Satisfactory-I’m hooked hard.

im_a_GDeveloper,

I get the feel. I’m also hooked hard to Factorio.

Kongar,

That was a damn good game too. I had the urge to play factorio again, but decided to try something new. Thus satisfactory. So far not disappointed.

Vodulas,

1.1 is out on the 10th, so should be even better!

FenrirIII, do games w [Announcement] The community and its future
@FenrirIII@lemmy.world avatar

Add links to !fallout and !skyrim too.

Elevator7009,

If we’re doing individual games, there are so many but off the top of my head !stardewvalley, !pokemon, !workersandresources, !cities_skylines, !baldurs_gate_3, and I guess !touhou even though that is mostly just reposts of other peoples’ art of the characters and nothing else because in the end, it is a video game series.

I realize hitting all the game-related communities might expand the sidebar too much. Spoilers are also useful for condensing lots of content to one dropdown. If that is still too much, you could make a whole post that lists video game communities and link to it on the sidebar. I know I collected a big mega list way back when, not the genre one I linked below, but one full of basically everything I could find video-game related… that is probably full of dead communities now because I think I made this list around 2 years ago when Kbin was still a thing with my now-dead account. So everything might fit on one separate post for now. But I definitely think having a sort of directory for video game communities might be useful and helpful.

Korhaka,

What about links for the top few, pastebin/similar list for the rest?

@Dremor@lemmy.world avatar

I think I will put like 10 5 everything, then link to a dedicated page on the git repo (I’ll try to make it a wiki so everyone can add its own)

Edit : Reduced to 5 to keep it concise as a start. I’ll put the others in a dedicated topic

Edit 2 : Fuck it, let’s put everything

Elevator7009,

Thanks! also, !tycoon

Kolanaki, do games w Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends.
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Nah I think they do pansexual roguelikes best. More hot roguelike characters please. Especially if they’re anthros like Asterius. :3

poppichew,

To be honest, I felt like Hades was like GOOFILY sexual. But I get why it works for most people. I just was like...wut!? People are horny for Hades folks, including my sibby. So like, it works. I just don't play games for that kind of stuff is all. I also liked their art more when it was air-brushy over the hard comic lines. Which is kind of crazy, because I like comic book art. It's just like...too much for me. My sibby grabbed Hades 2 and I can't bring myself to play it.

Also they're assholes of accessibility. It's so hard to play Hades because outside of the gauntlets you've gotta mash buttons to get through the whole damn thing. I know I am not the only one who's written to them about this, but they never gave a shit about it. I figured I was pretty much done with them because I have had such positive responses from so many indie developers on accessibility options. Which I think to be absolutely honest, should be a standard for games with larger budgets. Which they for sure had, as far as indie games go. eh.

That was a rant and a half.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Accessibility options are woefully limited in most games. All I personally need is a UI scaling option for larger fonts on the TV vs a monitor, but most of the games I play, the only options in there are for changing the color palette of the UI if you have 1 of 2 or 3 types of colorblindness and that’s it. Even though I am not in need of them, I do like seeing a metric fuckton of options in every single tab as I am a firm believer in more options is always better than fewer already, and this is doubly so for helping people with disabilities get some assistance to experience the game as close to intended as possible.

poppichew,

My partner has a rare type of colorblindness that makes certain comfy games completely unplayable. I wanna scream at the screen, because I wish that it were easier in this life to make things more accessible for all people in general. I sit in the same camp with you, the more the merrier when it comes to support. I get sad when I open a game, and I see nothing (cause the first thing I do is always check the options). I tend to not buy games with certain things like flashy effects, qtes, or a need for fast reflects. As you can tell, I'm not PVE-er =P!

discostjohn,

I also have a rare type of colorblindness, and it sucks when certain parts of a game are seemingly locked behind color perception. Like, if there’s going to be a reflex mechanic that necessitates a distinction between two colors, please let me customize those two colors in the options. And don’t limit it to deuteranopia, protanopia, and tritanopia; just let me choose the fucking colors. Some games do it right, but most just assume everyone can perceive colors the same way

poppichew,

I am not sure if you even keep playing games like that but often it's those ones that end up having to get returned. Which is such a bummer, because it so easily could be solved. Most times when you reach out to the company though (or devs, which ever) unless it's a really small team they will typically ignore your requests. Any time I have had accessibility requests, without hesitation smaller teams have implemented them almost immediately. Likewise they've asked if there is anything else that I might need. I know we're getting better at accommodating people, but there are still people who believe you can just "get gud" and work through these problems. When in actuality, they game-ending experiences. Which really sucks. Thanks for sharing by the by =)

The effort you put into this is so impressive! What a lovely post to read.

You can’t.

Though you can try role play difficulty limitations yourself. Also, that was number one complaint in the remaster survey so its very likely to receive a patch soon.

techt, do games w WalkScape's (RuneScape inspired fitness MMORPG) developer here, we've now released support for smartwatches on iOS & a lot of new content, and we are accepting new players to the Closed Beta!

I was accepted into the beta, but I’m unable to find the app in the store. I joined the google group, but I’m not sure what else to check. When I follow the link it shows the app in the browser, but when I try to find it with the play store app it can’t be found. Any ideas?

schamppu,

Make sure that you’re logged into Google Play with the same google account you joined the Group with. If you have more than one google account, this is very likely the cause of the issue.

techt,

Thanks for the reply! PEBKAC issue – I was logged in with the right account, but the email I requested to join the beta from was not a google account so I had to make one for this. I forgot to change the email in my Walkscape account portal to the gmail I made. All good now!

I feel this.

Back when i had free time, id always log in before everyone else and handle the stuff that they were terribly inefficient at, then just basically dick around with them. When time became more of a premium, it got harder and harder to game because i wanted to play the game and not hang out in social spaces
