This might not be too bad if they improved the controls. Deus ex is such a good game outside of the N64 era PC controls.

All my fears came true when I saw it wasn’t Nightdive doing it. Nightdive wouldn’t have changed shit mechanically, they would have just incorporated GMDX/Revision textures.

It goes from early PS2 graphics to mid PS2 graphics

Aspyr doing their usual…

This really needs an Elder Scrolls Oblivion-style remake. Use the original engine for everything except graphics, and remake only the graphics part (and the contact surface between the visual and original engines).

I said when they put the trailer out that it didn’t look any better than the Revision mod and I got shit for it.

That game was never about the visuals anyway.

Shiny.

pennomi, 2 miesiące temu (edited 2 miesiące temu) do games w PuffPals: Island Skies, a cosy game that earned $2.5 million on Kickstarter, has been slammed with refund requests after its website and online store disappeared

People greatly overestimate the chances of success of a video game, even with $2.5 million. It’s even easy to fail entirely for reasons unrelated to developing a game, such as corporate governance.

It’s not totally comparable, because we did a physical game, the Kickstarter I created ended up succeeding and shipping (over a year late!), we lost virtually all profits to early company investors and surprise tariffs. It was basically a wash financially.

Gerudo, 2 miesiące temu do games w Would-be City of Heroes successor, Ship of Heroes, decides to launch the MMO with a $45 price tag and a $15 monthly subscription and it's, er, going about as well as you'd expect

I can’t believe the devs sat there, built that abomination, and said, yeah $45 and $15 a month sounds about right…

Pika, 3 miesiące temu (edited 2 miesiące temu) do games w Starbreeze says sorry, reverses price increase on Payday 2 DLC bundle: 'We definitely didn't handle this right'

payday still exists? I haven’t heard of the game in years. I’m surprised they even attempted this as a whole because it sounds like it’s only going to piss off their remaining userbase.

BEING SAID, I think their main issue here isn’t the fact that the price went up in the first place, it’s that they decided to make it almost 25% more as the increase after having it be ~52% off for ages. This rollup should have defo been more gradual if they wanted people to not be pissed about that. An instant 50$ increase in price is a tough amount to swallow for a 12 year old game, regardless of if DLC is involved, even moreso when it boosts the price to $170

Payday 3 didn’t make enough money, so they’re following the players back to Payday 2 to try to shake them down there.

What a sad decline for such a great dev :c

They are only sorry the fans saw right through their plan. There’s no reason to increase the price on old digital content.

Anyone from Czech/Slovak Republic here?

I know it’s infantile, but.

RememberTheApollo_, 3 miesiące temu do games w EU tax officials confront the most pressing legal question of our time: If you sell RuneScape gold to someone and they use it to buy a magic sword, do you still have to pay taxes?

I dunno about the tax laws here. Seems anything purchased in game with fake game money that stays in game shouldn’t be subject to a sales tax. Buying game currency with real currency? Sure. Buying real things by selling in-game accounts or items for real money? Fine.
