PatrickYaa, do games w This ancient city sim constantly simulates 1000 NPCs in a clockwork murder sandbox where you can poison someone's drink and leave 'confident that you've pulled off the perfect crime'

This feels like what “Kingdoms of Elyria” wanted to be.

I think the real world implementation of “Kingdoms of Elyria” is Kingdoms Reborn. A multiplayer 4X/city-builder hybrid (although it works just fine in single player too).

Screen_Shatter, do games w Sony finally surrenders: PSN accounts will be 'optional' for games on Steam, but they'll give you free stuff if you sign up

Cool, I’ve been wanting to play the new god of war but passed on it because of this bullshit. Time to put it back on my wishlist and … wait some more for a sale, which is never much of a discount with Sony

Bend is best-known for Days Gone and, back in the day, Syphon Filter

Are we just gonna pretend Bubsy 3D never existed?

newthrowaway20,

Damn. Bubsy 3D to Days Gone. What a redemption arc lol

Sterile_Technique, do gaming w Razer has released a backseat gaming AI bot called Ava, and I'm not sure whether using it should be considered cheating or not

If the build quality of their peripherals is any indication, I can only assume this product will also be shit.

fishbone, do games w Against the Storm looks charming and cosy, but it's actually the best and most fiendish city builder I've played in years

Great game. First got recommended it here (I saw the game before but didn’t really pay much attention to it) and I love it so much. I’ve always stayed away from city builders cause I feel like they turn into something I don’t really care for as the game goes on, but the short scale rogue lite nature of this works incredibly well for me.

I really like that settlements are inherently temporary and that the game throws a lot of wrenches at me. It’s a good reminder to try and strive for flexibility rather than optimization. Settlements don’t have to be perfect (and likely won’t be), they just have to work well enough to get to the next.

They’ve also added a ton of content and quality of life stuff since I last played a few patches ago. The UI still has some issues, but auto loading saved production limits and the overlay keys for buildings and workers make it so much easier to see what’s going on at a macro level.

Tip for new players: after you get your bearing in game (maybe 1 or 2 settlements), take some time to just go through and check out the overlays. You can easily do stuff like move workers around or see and adjust recipes of all buildings on your map at once. I only just found those options and it’s a godsend compared to menu diving.

imPastaSyndrome, do gaming w Warner Bros. is delisting games again: a half-dozen Cartoon Network releases have been removed from sale on digital storefronts

Not really anything they can do.

imPastaSyndrome,

Thought they had some games preservation thing

Well first of all these games were never listed on GoG.

Secondly, they can’t (legally) do anything about a publisher refusing to sell games anymore. That’s their IP and they have the legal right to make that decision.

What they can do is ensure games that you’ve already purchased continue to work in the future.

dragonfucker,

Capitalist solutions have limited ability to fix capitalist problems.

Fitgirl doesn’t have to worry about these sorts of limitations.

Katana314, do games w Valve is fixin' to start some arguments over the holidays because 'All adult members in a Steam Family' can see your Steam Replay page

I’m curious whether that new feature, Hidden games, appears in this summary. I think it had some early missteps because it would disappear from some views but appear in others.

mnemonicmonkeys,

I checked mine, and it doesn’t include hidden games on mobile at least

AceFuzzLord, do games w Valve is fixin' to start some arguments over the holidays because 'All adult members in a Steam Family' can see your Steam Replay page

I don’t have any games that would be too uncomfortable to talk about in my library, so this wouldn’t be an issue for me. Sure I might not want to talk in public about the furry dating sim Amorous, but pretty much anything else I’ve played would definitely be fair game. Especially Ardor and talking about collecting teeth to confuse people walking by.

taiyang, do games w Valve is fixin' to start some arguments over the holidays because 'All adult members in a Steam Family' can see your Steam Replay page

My worst offender would be the Neptunia games I’ve played (which I genuinely liked for gameplay lol) but honestly, if your gaming family can’t accept you at your Nep, they don’t deserve you at your NepNep.

Aurora_TheFirstLight,

I’m going to try those games now! (For the gameplay, of course)

GrayBackgroundMusic, do games w Diablo 1 and 2 devs secure $4.5 million for a new ARPG: 'We're going back to what made those early Diablo games feel so awesome but taking them in some cool, fresh directions'

What does that even mean? Why were d1 and d2 good? Plenty of games have come and gone with similar features.

Just as Harry potter wasn’t a great story, but had great timing, I think d2 was the same. It was good but it also was at the right time.

Walk up to area full of rather boss looking dudes, fuck em all up, take their gear and then spend 30 minutes ooing and aaahing over said gear has been a cornerstone gameplay loop for many games for decades.

It’s, dare I say it?

fun?

Fill the area with cool lore, art direction and fold it into a story and hey, maybe it’s a little more fun.

Fades, do games w The Witcher 4 got a surprise reveal at The Game Awards, and this one is all about Ciri | PC Gamer

I can’t wait!!! A little sad the OG Ciri VA didn’t come back tho

learningduck, do games w Blizzard is delisting the OG Warcrafts from GOG, but GOG says it's gonna preserve them forever anyway, hands out a discount, and announces new policy for its preservation program to boot

Use code Makewarcraftliveforever on GoG to get a $2 discount.

Furbag, do gaming w Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

AI slop coming to ruin your favorite IPs in the very near future.

circuitfarmer, (edited ) do gaming w Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'
@circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Musk should buy Bethesda. Gut it like he gutted Twitter. Start development on something random – the Elder Scrolls VI: Kingdom of Doge.

When it comes out, it will be a horrible, poorly made mess. Just like a regular Bethesda game but extra enshittified. He can charge extra for it to make it seem super premium.

People will eat it up.

Worked for Tesla.

Edit: /s obvs

pennomi,

God, that’s how you end up with Skyrim, but endless AI generated quests with NO continuity or sense whatsoever.

Snowclone,

I mean… daggerfall kinda did that.

Simulation6, do games w Steam is 'an unsafe place for teens and young adults': US senator warns Gabe Newell of 'more intense scrutiny' from the government if Valve doesn't take action against extremist content

Crunchyroll removed their comments section recently. They said it was because of all the hateful comments for one show. Sony just didn’t want to deal with it, so gone, which is a real shame. If the comments are not part of the product being sold, then they will end up getting dropped if abused.
