Game journalists sitting in their office refreshing nexusmods on popular games

CaptainEffort,

Most games’ mods are restricted to reshades and trainers. A game having a thriving modding scene, like Skyrim, is actually pretty rare. So Baldurs Gate having a mod that adds tons of races is pretty cool, and potentially a good sign of things to come.

WarmSoda,

Between this site and Steam Workshop mods are not restricted to reshades and trainers.

CaptainEffort,

I’m literally a premium member of that website, and have been modding for over a decade. Yes, they usually are.

WarmSoda,

LMAO ok guy

Its true, you need an API or source code to delve deeper usually.

WarmSoda,

I’ve been modding since Doom in the 90s. Idk what games you’re playing, but almost all the games I’ve ever played on PC have mods. But whatever.

I have been waiting for playable kobolds to be a thing to buy the game; I was not expecting it to be this fast! Guess I know what I’m doing this weekend.

This looks amazing. It being an MMO is a bit of a letdown personally, but it looks great

I have a hard time believing that such a bland, empty review was written by an actual human being

Moghul, do gaming w Soulframe is Elden Ring meets Ghost of Tsushima, but with 'Disney princesses' - PCGamesN

Man, the flavor of this game is absolutely S tier. I have no idea what’s going on but it looks incredible and I want to know more.

But the combat and movement… I have 5000h in Warframe so believe me, I want this to be good, I love DE, but I haven’t seen anything attractive beyond the finger click and a couple of magic arm skills.

Running and walking feel like there’s too much inertia, like moving through molasses. The sword swings don’t feel fluid or weighty. I get what they’re going for with throwing and calling back the sword, but it doesn’t look good to me right now. The rolling/iframes just don’t feel snappy enough.

I’m looking forward to seeing more from this game, and specifically better combat and movement. I know you can, DE, you made 2 entire movement systems for Warframe.

I genuinely felt tears well up in my eyes as we watched the Torment Stag boss fight – that moment cemented the fact that I want to play this game.

I somehow have my problems trusting a reviewer who gets teary-eyed because of watching some gameplay video.

Russianranger,

Sometimes I get teary eyed looking at videos/gameplay footage, but it’s usually because of the combination of music, aesthetic and fluidity. There was a project trailer awhile ago, that for the life of me I can’t remember the name, but it had the protagonist kind of morphing into different opponents and seemingly very fluid combat and a distinct surreal Japanese aesthetic, and I remember getting teary-eyed at that. But if it was just gameplay and nothing else, don’t think it would have the same effect.

Has combat, must be Elden Ring like.

Cozy f2p MMO with Disney princess vibes is a mix of Elden Ring and Ghost of Tsushima? This equation does not compute.

Gameplay demo looks fine…but the encounters looked a little manufactured to give the appearance of elden-ring-like combat, when I would wager it’s going to be much more hack n slashy in reality.

sandriver,

Cozy Soulslike is a great concept honestly. I loved the first Dark Souls because it mostly facilitated slow and tactical combat. Favourite build was a pyromancer with a high stability shield. Tweak the numbers to add more tolerance to errors (like the boss demonstration showed) and you do get a much more relaxed Soulslike.

I’m pretty sure the only reason those two games are mentioned in the headline is to boost the article’s SEO

ConstableJelly,

Eh, the interviewer and developer make explicit references to both in the article.

The gameplay they showed near the start of Tennocon looked really intriguing game world wise. DE is fantastic at world building so it should be a treat!

And it’ll be free to play so nothing to lose trying it once it’s out

@Fazoo@lemmy.ml avatar

That worries me about predatory MTX then. F2P MMOs tend to go hard in that stuff.

Rezbit,
@Rezbit@lemmy.world avatar

Assuming it’s the same they do in Warframe, it’ll only be cosmetics that are only available with the premium currency. The premium currency is also tradeable, so F2P can get it without spending

falkerie71,

They’ve been F2P for a long time now. What’s different about their model is that, although you can buy in game currencies on their site, you can also trade them with other players for stuff. So if you want to play completely free, you can grind for your loot and valuable items on the market, then trade it with other players.

HidingCat,

Warframe's been around a long time; I know in these parts there's a certain purist view towards MTX, but Warframe does it well enough that I don't mind paying for some of it and getting a lot of game in return.

Sounds like a flop.

You sound like a flop.

Cypher,

Feel free to revisit this about 2 months after this free to play MMO trash releases and has its player count fall off a cliff.

@falkerie71@sh.itjust.works avatar

This isn’t a new game, dude. People who play it already know what they’re getting into.

Wodge,
@Wodge@lemmy.world avatar

You seem to be unaware that this is basically fantasy warframe, made by the original warframe team, which has been consistently one of the most popular games on steam for years. The dev team is very successful at what they do, and they’re doing more of it. It probably has one of the best monitization systems of any F2P game, with it all being cosmetics and time skips, nothing that makes you more powerful than a purely free player.

Stop posting, you know nothing about this subject and are making yourself look like bit of a numpty.

conciselyverbose,

Thanks for this. I was unaware, and that sounds like it has potential.

Cypher,

I can’t think of a quicker way to kill a soulslike than to slap a Disney Princess label on it and fill it to the brim with micro transactions.

I will enjoy rubbing people’s faces in the failure of this soon to be forgotten trash.

Wodge,
@Wodge@lemmy.world avatar

Stay mad.

Do you think a "soulslike" is defined by being dark and gritty? I find it odd that you think the inclusion of anything cute or hopeful/friendly would be only a negative. Maybe your preferences are for dark and gritty only, but I assure you that many people enjoy other styles. There's a charm to there being hope in a dying world, isn't there?

Besides, I'd say most people define "soulslike" by their gameplay, not aesthetics. Maybe the "git gud" fragile-masculinity crowd needs their unforgiving combat system paired with a dark, 'masculine' atmosphere to fulfill their power fantasy, but again, I assure you that many other types of people enjoy those games - especially Elden Ring, which has much broader appeal than the previous souls games.

I'll wager you're a toxic "git gud" type that hinges their identity on these types of games, and that's why the idea of your sacred icon being blemished by comparison to Soulframe upsets you so much. I really can't see why else anyone would be this angry over a game not being to their preferences. If people enjoy something different than you, let them. :)

Cypher,

Microtransaction fueled garbage is a blight on the consumer and I will always hope these greedy developers fail, aside from that the article itself is so poorly written I have to wonder if it was done by a bot.

No actual Disney princesses? What a letdown.

What upgrade? Can someone copy the article here, the website says I'm blocked

UsernameIsTooLon,

4k streaming. That’s it. The article just copies and pastes around “4k” as much as possible but that’s the only feature.

Disaster, do games w Valve gives Steam Remote Play a long overdue upgrade

I wish they’d give SteamVR on Linux a long overdue upgrade.

And by upgrade I mean “Make it look like it’s a project which is even alive”

It needs the same treatment as Big Picture and now Remote Play have gotten even on Windows, too. It’s clunky and really kinda shit. It still uses the old Big Picture UI as a base. And I don’t mean the one recently upgraded from; I mean the one before that.
