I just played this game for the first time a week ago. I liked it so much I immediately ran through it again as a pacifist. I’m a sucker for a well fleshed out story and world. The quirky humor also landed more often than not and the emotions hit pretty hard. I look forward to playing Deltarune sometime soon.

70GB?! That would take me all day to download, and my internet isn’t unusually slow.

Flickerby,

Would’ve taken me hours on wifi but I’m hard wired now so it’s just 10 mins or so. It’s a really fun game! Super unique. Totally worth the download. Sorry for your slow internet </3

yermaw,

zorro,

Assuming an 8 hour working day that means your Internet is around 20Mbps?

That’s pretty slow imo. IIRC the standard for broadband Internet in the US is 100mbps.

At 100Mbps you should be able to download the game in about an hour and a half.

I don’t know anyone cares, but I was curious about the math sorry

TheLeadenSea,

It’s in theory about 8MB/s, but it gets throttled fast if I try to download anything larger than a few GB

belated_frog_pants, do gaming w Playing Final Fantasy XI in 2025 (or 2026)?

I like xi, and its still got a good amount of players, but its a difficult game with old slow mechanics, so know what you are getting into. Find a friend or discord to play with.

_Lory98_, (edited )

I did end up trying it for a few days, but it doesn’t seem to be what I was looking for.

Other players don’t seem to be interested in the progression (which is understandable and expected due to the age of the game), but I don’t want to invest the time to reach level 99 just to then risk not enjoying it (looking at videos I don’t think the combat is what I was expecting, as I thought the mechanics would be closer to what XIV is now).

@ampy@discuss.online avatar

I pre-ordered a game twice now. The first one was Stalker 2 and the second Death Stranding 2. I am unhappy with Stalker 2 (I’m still waiting on the preorder physical) but I have the Death Stranding one. If you care about the bonuses I’d say it’s a gamble.

But_my_mom_says_im_cool, do gaming w Konamis return to the gaming industry is going well

As a big metal gear fan, I’ve been replaying the series and the writing in particular hasn’t aged well, any female character or anything related to them feels like it was written by a horny 12 year old. The series needs some major overhaul if it’s gonna go on, and a mostly naked jiggly sniper doesn’t help the series progress

At least they’ve rereleased ZOE at higher native res a couple of times. It was a long gap between 2 and the “HD remaster” where I wondered if I’d ever see it recognized again.

By the way, if anyone knows of any other games with similar gameplay/combat, please let me know. The closest I’ve found so far was Dissidia Duodecim for PSP, and that’s kind of a stretch.

I remember buying ZoE just for the MGS2 demo and then being hooked.

Sabin10, do gaming w Konamis return to the gaming industry is going well

MGS and ZoE are Kojima creations, I don’t think Konami can pull them off without him.

I agree. But they don’t have to.

They’re not pulling off Silent Hill, either.

What they did was license the franchise to competent studios.

Horror games make bank. It’s one of the few commonalities between indie and AAA.

I don’t understand the appeal personally, but the genre prints money.

MentalEdge,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

Oh I’m glad Silent Hill is back.

But horror isn’t CoD. I will never be that big. But Konami thinks it can be, and will either sacrifice the quality of the games in order to appeal to a wider audience, or keep the games as scary as they are, and fail to meet their own unrealistic expectations.

The scariness of the games is an additional complication that AAA publishers don’t seem to get.

A bad Call of Duty still lets you click heads and scream slurs in a match lobby.

But make a horror game that isn’t scary? Or even the wrong amount, or type of scary? Complete failure.

If you target hardcore horror fans, your game has to be good enough to scare them, and you’ll never be able to sell to everyone. And if you can’t scare the hardcore fans, you need to be interesting enough for the casual fans to buy in. Getting both is near impossible, which is why indies do so well in the genre. It’s REALLY hard to make horror for everyone. Usually, a horror game interests only a subset of gamers.

And when you have a franchise, every new game needs to figure out how to scare people who have played the previous games. Or else interest them in other ways.

Horror is really easy to overplay. If your game is too long, the scares stop working because the player gets used to them. If sequels just do the same thing as the last game, entire games can stop being effective. And once you start trying to reinvent things every game, they can end up losing their identity (see RE5 and 6).

Doing this every 12 months? Just no.

Resident Evil is an excellent example. Capcom has tried and failed to increase release frequency, but titles that actually sell are about two or three years apart no matter what they seem to do. And that is WITH their new formula of using two completely different styles to reduce the sameness of the titles.

If Konami wants to release more games, they should tap their other IPs, not oversaturate the already crowded horror genre even more.
