@theangriestbird

It's not suprising but nevertheless very sad.

Hopefully the rest of the team can save the game still.
And for all the rest i wish them that they find jobs fast again.

I purchased the game at launch to support the devs.

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Sorry but there’s no saving this. When EVERYWHERE. GAME shut down that was the end

stoy, do games w Fan-made Mario Kart 64 PC port released, with track editor and ultrawide support

Impressive to see that the software can distinguish between a legal and an illegal ROM file

Psythik,

lol sarcasm aside, it actually can’t. This port is being developed by HarbourMasters, the same people behind Ship of Harkinian and 2 Ship 2 Harkinian (PC ports of OoT and Majora’s Mask, for the unaware.)

stoy,

Yeah, I just found the article really annoying at constantly talking about legal roms…

Denjin,

And 3 paragraphs talking about Mario Kart World.

Lumisal,

I mean, have you seen Nintendo?

stoy,

Yeah, I know they are psychotic about this shit, doesn’t stop me from getting annoyed

anakin78z, do games w Star Wars Jedi director’s new studio is making a Dungeons & Dragons action adventure
@anakin78z@lemmy.world avatar

Single player D&D? A bit hard to get excited about that.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

I’m questioning if there’s ever been a good D&D video game adaptation that wasn’t trying its best to just replicate the tabletop experience, and then I’d ask if it’s worth trying when you could just continue to make good replications of the tabletop experience.

iAmTheTot,

I mean, BG3 sold very well and certainly not everyone is playing that co-op.

anakin78z,
@anakin78z@lemmy.world avatar

But a lot of people are. I didn’t care for BG3, but I tolerated it as a multiplayer game because it’s fun to play with friends. I also played Solasta solo, but most of my hours were co-op, because it’s just a lot more fun.

I guess for me the adventuring ‘party’ experience is a big part of D&D.

A solo experience could still be fun, but, like I said, I’m not getting excited about it.

solo RPGs have been doing party experiences for a long time.

Y’all are acting like I said I hate all fantasy rpg games.

evening_push579,

I didn’t even know I could play coop… (・・?)

inclementimmigrant,

Now you know and no worries if you decide to do the romance path and watch the sex scene, other players won’t be made aware. :)

@tal@lemmy.today avatar

I like single-player D&D.

catloaf,

Never played Diablo or any of the Elder Scrolls games? Even Baldur’s Gate? Those have all been very popular games based on D&D (some more closely than others).

anakin78z,
@anakin78z@lemmy.world avatar

Sure, and Dragon Age, too. But they’re not D&D. I like fantasy RPGs, but when I think D&D, I think party of ~4 with friends.

catloaf,

That’s fine, sounds like it’s not for you then.

Kolanaki, do games w Peter Molyneux explains why his infamous Kinect game Project Milo was never released
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Is it because the whole thing was absolutely bullshit? The dude was trying to sell it as if it were an actual artificial intelligence years before LLMs were even where they are now (and they absolutely fucking suck rn).

Edit: lol “I want to sit down and smoke what I smoke, drink what I drink and not dance around like a twat.”

FlashMobOfOne, do games w Lies of P is getting difficulty options to make the Soulslike more accessible

The dodging on this game was frustratingly buggy.

The visceral feeling of betrayal I felt coming to dark souls2 never really petered out

secret300, do games w Lies of P is getting difficulty options to make the Soulslike more accessible

I hope it’s clear which option is the original difficulty. I plan on playing it and honestly I’m worried how they’ll implement it. Difficulty settings are great but hard to pull off

frigidaphelion, do games w Lies of P is getting difficulty options to make the Soulslike more accessible

I really wanted to like this game, paid for it and everything, but I just couldnt get in to it. I’m an avid fan of fromsoft’s stuff and have done them all several times, but with LoP i never felt like the combat clicked, and I strongly disliked most of the enemy designs. Not that fromsoft always has great enemy design either, but LoP just didnt vibe with me. I’ll have to revisit it some day though

TheOakTree,

The game doesn’t really explain this, but you get different dodge animations when you are using an extra light build. To me, this made the game feel more like bloodborne, which made the combat easier to read. Eventually, I ended up parrying everything instead of dodging, but I really like how the game plays in this state. YMMV

frigidaphelion,

I’ll have to try that out, thanks

finitebanjo, do games w Grand Theft Auto 6 release date has been announced, but the game has been delayed to 2026 | VGC

Hang on, they just now announced it, it’s been delayed, and they still plan to launch it next year? This is gonna be a straight up shit show, folks.

Vopyr, do games w Game preservationists say Switch 2 Game-Key Cards are ‘disheartening’ but inevitable
@Vopyr@lemmy.world avatar

Game-Kay Cards?

4am,

It’s like a virtual license file for a game. It’s basically the same system as before but now you can trade them with people on your friends lists.

People with kids: be sure to set parental controls on this before your kids are bullied into sending away all the games you bought them

WDIT: I see the article is not actually about the virtual key cards but the physical ones. This is a game cert without the game on it, just the license file. You still have to download it.

Honestly I think that fucking sucks because they can just take it away from you.

Vopyr,
@Vopyr@lemmy.world avatar

After researching the question a little more on the Internet, I can confidently say that this is bullshit. Screw Nintendo.
