njm1314, do gaming w Twitch banned Dr Disrespect after viewing messages sent to a minor, say former employees

He should switch over to Twitter, I hear they encourage that kind of stuff.

jadedwench, do games w Microsoft announces the Proteus Controller, a gamepad for Xbox gamers with disabilities

It looks like with multiple power cubes you can break it up. My favorite thing about the switch is the separate joy cons. This is far far far less painful for me to hold than traditional controllers. If this worked on Linux, Mac, PlayStation, and my Steamdeck, I might try it, as long as I could return it if it doesn’t work out.

I struggle with buttons in general. My palms are too small so I can’t wrap my hand around them very well. I have to death grip with my palm or I drop it, but I am constantly shifting around as my fingers can’t reach certain things easily either. The off-axis joysticks on an Xbox controller is a no go as I have to hold the controller rotated a bit which means that up isn’t up. I do much better with PS5 controllers, but still get a lot of pain in my hands if I play too much.

This reminds me of when I used to run windows.

Linux doesnt do this shit. :)

WarmSoda,

No one cares

kemsat, do games w Palworld isn’t slowing down, hits 19 million players across Steam and Xbox

Neat. Hopefully it doesn’t corrupt Pokemon into being a survival/builder game.

SkybreakerEngineer,

Pokemon has barely deviated in almost 30 years, I think it will be fine

kemsat,

I can only hope. I’ve already watched Zelda be ruined.

shea,

zelda is awesome now what are you talking about. botw was the best zelda ever made and the only one i enjoyed playing, and totk is even better.

Boxtifer,

It’s their personal preference just like yours. I know, crazy how someone might have the opposite opinion on something.

shea,

yeah and i was trying to engage in discussion to learn more about why they think that. what a redditor attitude, i know you don’t have friends irl if you act like that

Duke_Nukem_1990,

Yeah could you imagine the horrors of Pokemon changing their core gameplay loop after decades of stagnation? Horrible. Just look at how it ruined Zelda!

TwilightVulpine,

Pokémon can’t even shake up enough to figure out what to do with an open world. They took away puzzles and mazes and replaced them with… nothing. Never seen a more boring open world than Scarlet/Violet. No events or minigames, nothing to discover along the way, only bland scenery and low draw distance creatures.

BOTW ruined Zelda for people like me who enjoyed the dungeons, unique items and narrative progression of older games even if it was a great game for open world fans. Pokemon is even further removed from that action-survival gameplay so it’s not hard to see why people would want new games to be similar even if the current formula is stale.

kemsat,

Yeah pretty much. BOTW is flat out not a Zelda game. It’s a Zelda skinned game.

kemsat,

Yeah, basically. Breath of the Wild is the worst Zelda game, mainly because it’s not a Zelda game. I know lots of people like it, but it’s not a Zelda game. Same with Palworld. It’s not a Pokemon game.

Wouldn’t want Gamefreak to deviate from the same formulas they’ve had for decades and have never bothered to change, while putting out worse and worse quality games every year.

Weslee, (edited ) do gaming w Steam Deck OLED review: better, not faster

Doesn’t take a review to know the performance specs haven’t changed, did this reviewer think oled screen somehow meant better GPU?

unexpectedteapot,

Honestly, I am always appalled by most “pop”-tech journalists like these. They either just repost the tech specs with the least nuance known to mankind, or they make absurd assumptions by having weird expectations (i.e: the infamous Cuphead review) going in. Seems like in this case it is both!

I attribute this to the much centralisation that completely deformed the internet, and a totalitarian attitude to criticism by critics (hypotactic, isn’t it?) they remove and/or make it very hard to have a discussion on their articles.

Back before much of this centralisation of the internet, low-effort popcorn reviews like these would be absolutely panned in the very visible comment section. Also, shitty editorialised titles (which by the way usually aren’t even by the author) like these were not as prevalent without massive scrutiny.

dan1101, do games w Microsoft eyes closing its giant Activision Blizzard deal next week

Anybody wanna speculate on how soon they will weasel out of their promise to keep releasing COD on Playstation?

MichaelHawkinSnider,

As soon as the deal closes.

Blizzard, do games w Microsoft addresses the huge Xbox leaks: here’s Phil Spencer’s full memo

“We all put incredible amounts of passion and energy into our work, and this is never how we want that hard work to be shared with the community.”

Nothing says “incredible amounts of passion” and *“community”*like “Content calalog growth drives net new hours within Game Pass customer engagement”.

jsdz, do gaming w Microsoft documents leak new Bethesda games, including an Oblivion remaster

originally set for fiscal year 2022

Perhaps they abandoned the idea when they heard about Skyblivion.

Perfide,

Starfield is also set for fiscal year 2022 in these leaks, though. Fairly safe to say everything was pushed back 2 years.

sadreality, do gaming w The Elder Scrolls VI will skip PS5 and isn’t coming until at least 2026

Wait we are expecting new consoles by 2026?

johnthedoe,

That’s what I was wondering. Do they know something? I would’ve assumed ps5 have enough tech to get to 2026

navi,
@navi@lemmy.tespia.org avatar

Pretty sure this is referring to platform exclusives and not next-gen consoles.

giantofthenorth, (edited )

Why wouldn’t we? The PS5 is already 3* years old, most cycles are around 7 years

TowardsTheFuture,

Bad title. Will be console exclusive. Not saying it will be next gen.

jonsnothere,

Well, Xbox and PC exclusive.

TowardsTheFuture,

Yeah sorry meant that.

MJBrune,

Honestly, Todd Howard isn’t the sole issue at a studio like that.

Swarfega, do games w Saints Row developer Volition permanently shuts down

Damn shame. I’ve not played the recent game but I loved Saints Row 3. Spent a lot of hours just driving around and beating people up with a dildo. Sad times.

Saneless, (edited )

3 was the first GTA type of game I ever finished in my life. Could never fight through 3, VC, SA, 4, or 5, but I blasted through SR3 every day till I finished it

They actually understood that things can and should be fun

Same for me. ;_;

ryper,

I remember driving around with the crew, singing “What I Got.” Good times.

roguetrick, do games w Saints Row developer Volition permanently shuts down

They had a lot of hits. Descent was revolutionary.
