Honestly I’m really thrilled to play the update tonight.

rigatti, do games w Sea of Stars is adding co-op multiplayer to the dazzling Chrono Trigger-inspired RPG
@rigatti@lemmy.world avatar

Seems fun maybe if they also add some other stuff to make the combat more interesting. It starts off looking promising then just doesn’t really go anywhere.

LaGG_3, do gaming w Elden Ring is getting a free-to-play mobile version with in-app purchases

I guess it’s cool that some people may be able to play the game when they wouldn’t otherwise, but yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up being shit.

I doubt is Elden Ring actually, probably is just the IP name with some of the assets toss over in a simplified version.

LaGG_3,

Yeah, and not even a simplified version like the Final Fantasy 15 for the Nintendo Switch. Probably just going to be a half assed thing.

Moira_Mayhem, do gaming w The Day Before studio say the game's downfall was thanks to "a hate campaign"

The loudest sign of a weak character is the inability to take responsibility for fuckups.

qooqie, do games w Piranha Bytes, devs of Gothic and Elex, are next on Embracer's chopping block

The games aren’t award winning but I genuinely enjoy their games so I hope they don’t get fucked over by a shitty overseer company

DdCno1, do gaming w War Hospital, out now, is a tug-of-war between empathy and efficiency

It seems interesting, but based on the Steam reviews, it’s apparently a buggy mess.

petrescatraian, (edited )

@DdCno1 I see. I haven't encountered any bugs, but based on my experience, it is rather hard.

Edit: I first thought that this comment was a reply to my comment, lol.

petrescatraian, do gaming w War Hospital, out now, is a tug-of-war between empathy and efficiency

@alyaza Interesting game, will definitely put it on my wishlist. Seems a bit similar to This War of Mine, where you play as a group of civilians which have to survive as much as possible stuck in a besieged city.

This War of Mine is a good game, but I found it too bleak to keep playing. I am sure that is part of the point, but I usually play games as a form of escapism.

DdCno1,

You have to break into the apartment of an elderly couple very early into the game. I remember the man reacting to the break in, defending himself and his wife. His death made me feel so terrible (which is the intent of the game, of course) that I put the game down.

petrescatraian,

@DdCno1
I broke into their apartment without fighting them. Just hid from them and stole whatever I could. The next day, the news broke out that raids have started and basically nobody was safe anymore, and I kept losing things.

I died fighting someone with fists against a shotgun.

frog, do gaming w Rock Paper Shotgun's 75 most anticipated PC games of 2024

I love that this list includes a lot of smaller and indie games as well as the big releases. Definitely some games there that have caught my eye.

Wow how far he has fallen and what a way to ruin your legacy

MrMamiya, do games w Arkane release new Marvel's Blade concept artworks, hinting at missions, combat and levels

One could argue the blade trilogy predicted the fate of the marvel franchise as a whole. We are currently in blade 3.

Zahille7,

I mean we can thank Blade and even Raimi Spider-Man for the current state of superhero movies. Before then we had that crappy Captain America movie from the 90s.

SomethingBurger,

And now we have The Flash and Morbius… The golden age is over, we’re back to shit.

Back in the 90s we had the Flash as well.

Somehow I still have that theme song stuck in my head…

And that scene where a brainwashed Flash destroys an entire row of parking meters…

ampersandrew, do gaming w Marvel Snap devs say the card game won't go anywhere, as publishers reportedly look to exit “mainstream games”
@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

As long as it requires a server to operate, then yes, it will go away one day. That it failed to turn a profit even before the economic downturn, according to that Reuters article they cite, doesn't inspire a lot of confidence that it's going to run for very long.

Swedneck, do games w Latest Baldur's Gate 3 update adds colour-blind settings, hireling customisation and best of all, sponge baths
@Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

so is it the good kind of colour-blind settings or did they fall for the old “this is just fucking filters that simulate colourblindness” chestnut?

kadu, (edited )
@kadu@lemmy.world avatar

I can’t test it (not colorblind) but many recent developments have been made with Microsoft’s help, and for all their faults, Microsoft is usually quite good with accessibility so perhaps it’s the good version.

cambriakilgannon, do gaming w Space sim Squadron 42 is "feature-complete" and gunning for Starfield's lunch with massive new video

Backed the kickstarter, still excited. Even in its current state it’s one of the more interesting games I’ve ever played. There’s probably a reason no one else has tried to make star citizen before. If SQ42 ever launches, hopefully in a decent state, assets will start getting moved to the multiplayer side of things.

GunnarRunnar,

What exactly is Star Citizen? And how does it differ from everything else?

bermuda,

It’s a space MMO sandbox game that’s been in development for like 11 years now I think? It’s still in the alpha stage. I think at one point it was the highest backed Kickstarter in history. Some people think it’s fraud and they’ll never deliver, others think they’re working on it just slowly. I think at this point universally though, people are just starting to give up hope. The game is available and in a playable state, it’s just nowhere near the promised state.

It also doesn’t help that a lot of ships in star Citizen can be bought with real life cash for pretty exorbitant amounts. A cursory Google search (haven’t played the game) tells me that the “600i Executive Edition” is the most expensive ship in the game, available for $25,000 real life USD.

I’ve heard the best comparison for the game is the presently finished game Elite: Dangerous. Star Citizen is basically saying they’re E:D but better.

stargazingpenguin,

The Javelin is the most expensive ship you can actually buy, at $3,000. It’s still a crazy amount of money though! But if people want to pay it, more power to them. It allows me to enjoy the game with my $70 starter pack!

While you technically have to spend $25,000 to get the 600i Executive Edition, is actually a perk you get once you’ve spent that much on the game itself.

hornedfiend, do games w Elite Dangerous studio Frontier Developments announce layoffs and "organisational review"

That’s just sad. I invested so much time grinding my way through this game and engineering my 6 ships and getting a fleet carrier only to be ultimately disappointed by the lack of content and lackluster updates.

It saddens me that I now have to look forward to that mess of a tech demo called Star Citizen, but I’ve already burned my money on that too, so I’m only left with a dream.

For finished solo games you also have X4 foundations and Everspace 2!

hornedfiend,

I know. I have 1.5k hours in x4 and over 100 in Ever space 2, so I pretty much played all content in those. They are not the same thing though.
