KingThrillgore, do gaming w Ubisoft monetization director blames gamers, says they've been exposed as 'non-decent humans'
@KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml avatar

I get that you should cultivate the audience you want to play your game, but Ubisoft can’t win for losing. This should have gone through 20 publicists. I expect that mong Hero Hei to leap on this shit.

Ubisoft needs a complete management overhaul.

TammyTobacco, do games w Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2

For context. Eric was on Tiger Belly and offhandedly mentioned he COULD make a Stardew Valley 2, not that he ever will.

Apologize for Nanjing and maybe there’s a snowball’s chance in hell you have a leg to stand on.

Edit: he said “It is an insult to the nation.” It’s a nation which is broadly too cowardly to recognize and apologize for the senseless and solely perpetrated murders of hundreds of thousands and rapes of tens of thousands. Your nation’s government has no honor for this, and no microscopic “insult” in a game can sink you lower.

AmidFuror,

So until Japan does that, everything they do or say is not newsworthy?

Until they do that, their PM shouldn’t be getting up in front of cameras and crying like a whiny little bitch about how a video game portrays their history.

StitchIsABitch, do games w Skyblivion, the fan remake of Oblivion in Skyrim's engine, nears completion

Sweet, then I could finally play oblivion instead of giving up after the 34th crash

secret300, do games w Intel Arc B580 'Battlemage' GPU announced - 1440p Ultra gaming for $249

I just bought an a750 honestly I’m loving it. So far I’ve only had issues in Skyrim with the shadows, and vermintide 2.

bitwolf, do games w Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced'

They don’t have a chance. Steam and gog not only don’t suck, they’re actually nice to use.

Using Junk Store on my Steam Deck (and redeeming free games on the mobile website) to completely avoid the Epic Launcher 😎

smeg,

Please tell me more about this Junk Store, I’d been using Heroic for Epic games but it’s been a bit dodgy recently

@june@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Sure, it’s a plugin through Decky. It allows you to log in to Epic and it displays your library in its separate window, allowing you to install them as Non-Steam Games. It’s quite easy

smeg,

I’ve not used Decky before, it always seemed like one of those things that needed constant tinkering. Is it still a bit bleeding edge or has it reached the “it just works” stage yet?

june,
@june@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Decky itself is fine, some plugins are buggy. If you install it and Junk-Store, you should be fine with no problems. I run like a dozen plugins and I only ever had problems with the UI customization ones: css, and animation changer. I uninstalled those and it’s all passive now.

I’ve only had problems with one game from Epic. The rest worked just fine with no tweaks

smeg,

Cheers, I’ll give it a go if Heroic is still not working the next time I try to use it

Annoyed_Crabby, do games w Google discussed teaming up with Tencent to buy Epic Games

Why is everyone buying each other lately???

Waluigis_Talking_Buttplug,

Corporations see others getting profit as competition, and it makes sense to consolidate profits so “Everyone wins” (everyone excluding the consumer)

kakes,

Weakening of antitrust regulations.

WalrusDragonOnABike,

One school of thoughts is companies go through eras of profiting from inflation and eras of profiting from M&As. Guess an uptick in M&A would suggest they're no longer increasing profits from inflation?

Zorque,

Lately? You haven't been paying attention.

youRFate, do games w Xbox Game Pass made $230 million revenue in one month, most users pay for full subscriptions

I like it, cheaper than Netflix used to be, and I use it for more hours / month. Rn I’m using it to play starfield.

Yeah, and Lies of P just released, too. I get more than my money’s worth out of it. Especially with cloud gaming on the steam deck.

dejected_warp_core, do games w Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2
Psythik, (edited ) do games w Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2

I literally just bought the game so he better fucking not.

Edit: Jesus, lol; it was sarcasm XD

simple, do games w Intel announces XeSS 2 with new Frame Generation and Low Latency tech

The first XeSS is very underrated IMO. I found that it generally looks a lot better than what FSR had at the time.

PenguinTD, do gaming w Black Myth: Wukong is one of the best-selling games of all time

I will wait until they fixed some issues DF mentioned before I’ll buy it. (also currently busy with other games.)

@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

Anyone not using Eneba to get three month Xbox live gold cards is missing out. Converts to 50 days of gamepass for less than 9 dollars.

Whirlybird, do games w Xbox Game Pass made $230 million revenue in one month, most users pay for full subscriptions

But but but but $1 loophole and free trials?!?!? /s

Happy GPU subscriber here. It has changed how I buy games, for the better for my finances especially if you ask my wife haha

Klystron,

For me I just can’t support it because I feel like it’s just one more step in changing digital ownership. Always my fear that one day I’ll wake up and storefronts aren’t a thing, you have to subscribe to play a game.

Whirlybird,

That’s fair enough even though I don’t think digital purchases are ever going away.
