Everblue, do games w Dragon Age Dreadwolf keeps getting delayed internally, report claims

Delay as long as you need, just please release a good game. I loved the first game, and while I felt DA2 was a step back, I still enjoyed it. DA3 felt too… MMO-y to me.

It’s such an amazing world to play in, I really hope the 4th installment isn’t garbage.

mothersprotege,

Totally agree about the DA series. Can’t say I have very high hopes for this one, given the direction they’ve taken the franchise, but I’d love to be wrong.

dewritochan, do gaming w Denuvo security is now on Switch, including new tech to block PC Switch emulation

theverge.com/…/nintendo-switch-denuvo-drm-anti-ch… this news isn’t even new. i figured they’d have at least applied it to a game by now.

count_dongulus, do games w Grasshopper CEO Suda51 says people ‘care too much’ about Metacritic scores

It’s a useful place to find out if something totally sucks though. That’s how I use it. 60+? Probably good, at least for some audiences. Less than that? Only if you’re already hyped or a fan of whatever thing it’s related to.

Yeah I mean ratings are giving you an idea of whether there’s a chance you like that game. The higher the rating, the higher the chance. But there’s always a bit of chance involved.

I tend to buy highly rated games much more often, but if I really am hyped for a game with an OK rating, I still might give it a go. You never know if it will hit your specific niche.

count_dongulus,

Yep typical ratings are oriented relative to the “average” consumer. But no person is actually THE average.

Jimbo, do gaming w Braid Anniversary Edition has ‘sold like dog sh*t’, creator Jonathan Blow says
@Jimbo@yiffit.net avatar

I’m rather unfamiliar with this game and even I know a remaster would not have done well

It has an engine that permits recording and “rewinding” gameplay, with a lot of interesting quirks, like elements that don’t rewind. Puzzle platformer based on that.

It was a fascinating thing technically, and the creator did a lot with that capability. But IMHO it’s not otherwise exceptional, like graphically or such.

@tal @Jimbo truly something special back in 09 or whenever it was released. The twist ending and mind screwy real end were super unexpected back then .

Today nothing really to write home about. It's all been done and built on already.

Joker, do gaming w A ransomware gang claims to have hacked nearly 200GB of Epic Games internal data

Fuck ransomware gangs. Also, fuck Epic. I guess if it’s gotta happen the silver lining is that it happened to an asshole company.

lolola, do games w Rocksteady pulls Suicide Squad an hour into early access after players’ games ‘auto completed’
@lolola@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I’d like to imagine this is analogous to autocomplete on a keyboard, like if I mash “A” a few times to get to the title screen and game’s like “Did you mean A A A A A Start Start Down Start A A B Right Right…”

bstix, do games w Max Payne voice actor James McCaffrey has passed away

I only played the first game more than 20 years ago, but I can still hear the voice.

echo64, do games w Nintendo says it has a ‘great relationship’ with Microsoft, after it emerged Xbox wanted to buy the company | VGC

Blogspam. This is a boilerplate answer to the question.

shapesandstuff, do gaming w Cancelled Hyenas was ‘Sega’s biggest budget game ever’, it’s claimed | VGC

I tried an early playtest of it and it felt like a mobile port of some free to play pubg copy.

Janky, unfocused, confusing.

@navi@lemmy.tespia.org avatar

To be fair that’s what actually early playtest are for.

“Beta” and “early access” are so abused these day.

shapesandstuff,

Yeah but i dont think anything changed about my complaints as far as i could see

averyminya,

The game shut down after the play test. There was nothing they had the opportunity to change.

If you’re talking about systemic issues with the games design, that I will agree with. From my understanding it’s a 5 team of three PvP/E heisting game in space.

That means that there’s zero gravity sections, maps large enough to have heists, and, again, 5 teams of 3. It’s not so much that the game itself has any specific issue, the issue the game has was sheerly its scope and ambition. It seems like it could have had a lot of potential if it just weren’t so many systems being combined.

shapesandstuff,

The tests went on for quite a long time is what i mean, i kept getting emails even after i stopped.

Idk about the scope being so crazy, there are similar games executing such concepts well. It was simply the execution of the systems and overall game and level design. That and the terrible technical issues that really held back whatever they had managed this far.
