Kovu, do games w Official Minecraft wiki editors so furious at Fandom's 'degraded' functionality and popups they're overwhelmingly voting to leave the site
@Kovu@lemmy.world avatar

please, fandom is one of the worst sites on the internet

subtext,

When the old school RuneScape wiki moved to a self hosted solution it was night and day the quality difference. I’d argue that OSRS (and probably regular RS) have some of the best wikis in gaming.

Enzy, do games w Star Citizen is on course to reach $1 billion in player funding in 2026, and we still might not get to play its singleplayer campaign next year

They should open up a milking factory

itkovian,

It is a milking factory.

pyre, do games w Star Citizen is on course to reach $1 billion in player funding in 2026, and we still might not get to play its singleplayer campaign next year

I love how they say “next year” like that was the expected release date to begin with.

b34k,

In ‘24 they announced they’d be releasing the SP campaign after not having an official release target since early 2020.

Note that Duke Nukem Forever released (poorly) before this travesty.

What you can play right now in Star Citizen is arguably better than what Duke Nukem Forever will ever be.

SolarPunker, do games w Hideo Kojima says MGS2 was never about AI 'but rather a future I didn't desire' of data gaining a will of its own and 'unfortunately we're heading there'

Great “interview” btw, here the official video link for better quality: youtu.be/02Ah5VQrzvA

Treczoks, do games w It turns out Saudi Arabia will own 93.4 percent of EA if the buyout goes through, which is effectively all of it

Not a loss for me. I liked them when they were still good, on C64 and Amiga. But now? Good riddance. May the sheiks have fun with it.

Quill7513,

i’m less worried about me not buying their games and more worried about the folks who buy madden every year even though the last interesting release was 08

DoucheBagMcSwag,

08 you say?

patruelis, do games w Legendary game designer, programmer, Space Invaders champion, and LGBTQ trailblazer Rebecca Heineman has died

A sad day 😢

nuko147, do games w Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading
@nuko147@lemmy.world avatar

They should use prices of $200, 250, and 300 instead of the $70, 110, and 130 AAA reskinned games. That would work. /s

meisterah,

I like the way you think.

Charge the morons as much as they’re willing to pay!

mic_check_one_two,

They’ll sell games for 227, 375, and 510 UbiPoints^TM^. The UbiPoints^TM^ are only redeemable on their online shop, and are only purchasable in units of:

  • $10 for 50 UbiPoints^TM^
  • $50 for 275 UbiPoints^TM^. That’s 10% more UbiPoints^TM^ for free!)
  • $150 for 938 UbiPoints^TM^. That’s 25% more UbiPoints^TM^ for free! Our best deal ever!

@nuko147@lemmy.world avatar

Why not make it a Gatcha game too? You use points and you have a chance to win a good game with every use.

SuperSpruce,

No no, sell them for 376, 554, and 732 UbiPoints^TM^. Gotta buy that extra pack.

Kolanaki, do games w Valve announces three new products: the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Okay what the hell is up with the Frame?

It says it is a stand alone headset and doesn’t need a PC… Right before it goes on to say it’s meant to be used with a PC but wirelessly. Is it stand alone or not? If I have Beat Saber in my library, do I have to stream it from an actual dedicated PC or can it run straight off the headset like I can with a Quest?

Diplomjodler3,
@Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world avatar

It can do both.

rainwall,

Its both, based on their article. Its an ARM chip they have a translation layer called FEX to handle, so it should be able to play most any steam game. Native vulkan games will apparently run even better because it can skip some of the emulation and just hit the vulkan API directly for rendering. It has onboard storage, so it can be used standalone.

In standalone mode, the intergrated chip will use about 20w, so you will get about 1 hour of playtime on it because of the 20wh battery. In streaming mode, the graphics will be better, and the power use cuts to about 6w, so it can go 3-4 hours. It has an integrated usb port, so you can easily plug in a bog standard battery bank and put it in your pocket for longer play times.

Just want to add an hour in VR is a LOT longer than 1 hour of flat screen gaming. If you haven’t used VR then they aren’t as comparable as you think.

You’re usually on your feet, holding your arms up high, waving them around ,likely squatting - a lot and you’ve got a screen blaring into your eyes with constant high intensity stimulation.

Most people won’t do 1 hour sessions on the regular, forget a 3-4 hour session without being put down to charge for while you take a break.

@riskable@programming.dev avatar

I’ve done a 3-hour session playing Beat Saber multiplayer with a friend. It was the most intense workout I’ve ever experienced.

The only break was in the middle to refill my enormous water bottle and to clean up the huge pool of sweat on the floor that was getting gross (I was wearing socks, LOL).

My arms hurt for like three days straight after that. I still played every night though 😁👍

Rooster326,

Oh man you gotta try Pistol Whip if you have not . I had a 2 hour session and I felt like I could not get up the next day. Knees weak, arms heavy, >!mom’s spaghetti !<

I remember the game grumps did a walkthrough of some sonic game and they were going through some guys 10+ year walkthrough that was really well done. It was hilarious some of the comments the walkthrough person wrote.

Marshezezz, do games w Capcom doubles down on its decision to go pay-per-view during the Street Fighter League despite the fact that nobody really likes it

Come to think of it, the Covenant have a lot in common with American brand millennial Evangelists. Leaning really hard on immanentising the eschaton.

Bytemeister,

There is still time to stop the key from turning.

The Master Chief needs to finish the fight. Fuck up the (Trump) covenant

Zahille7,

Damn, now I want a mod that replaces all Covenant enemies with these fascists, and replace all their voice lines with actual quotes they’ve said.

You could do Stephen Miller for the Prophets, Trump for the Elites, and maybe Alex Jones or something for the Grunts.

fox2263,

You kill a grunt and it screams “they’re turning the frogs gay”
