orcawolfe, do gaming w A Misguided Guide To Finishing Your Gaming Backlog

Whenever I hear of a game I might like, or buy one on a whim I add it to a list. I do something similar with books and movies. The purpose of the lists aren't to put pressure on myself, but to remind myself of all the things I'm interested in and to avoid the feeling of "I have nothing to play/read/watch". If I'm not enjoying something, I just won't finish it and I check it off the list so I know I tried. For me, deciding what to do with my limited time can give me analysis paralysis. I don't see the list and backlog as a chore, but more of an easy menu of options that I've already considered.

I have so many games I’ll probably never play lol I just play the ones I like. Backlog problem solved.

alehel,

How do you know if you like them if you haven’t tried them 😋?

I really wish more indies could take on the no-sales policy. It’d give me tons more peace of mind to buy a game when I actually want to play it, rather than always waiting and doing weird backlog hoarding when Valve decide it’s wallet-opening-time.

But as the video shows, the policy was a risk for Wube even back in the day – it’s an even bigger risk now that everyone and their dog expects to wait for the sale, and especially if you happen to have a game that’s not quite as incredibly popular as Factorio.

sparky,

They should do an April fools’ sale where they reduce the price by 1 cent

smart_boy,

It’s not exactly the same thing, but itch.io allow developers to have a “reverse sale”, where the price goes up for a given period. It was mostly a joke feature, perhaps intended to provoke a little thought about sales culture.

How is this an unlisted video with some 250 views that seems like a high quality production on a channel with 1.2 million subscribers?

Maybe a leaked YouTube link from their Patreon?

Deestan,

I did not think that through.

Oh well, exclusive Lemmy access promo I guess. I’ll throw the Escapist an extra $10 on their next donation-enabled stream as an apology.

Don_alForno, do games w Total War: Warhammer 40k

I have questions.

Are there gonna be 3 levels now? (Real time battle, planetary overworld, space over-over world)?

Are the space marines gonna march in a phalanx formation?

Which space marine is gonna be the princess?

Dalacos,

Are there gonna be 3 levels now? (Real time battle, planetary overworld, space over-overworld)?

Presumably? There might even be a fourth layer if they go battle/planet/system/interstellar.

Are the space marines gonna march in a phalanx formation?

I doubt it. Round bases man, squares are for fantasy!
But really, I assume they’ll be in a skirmish formation.
Facing is only supposed to matter to vehicles and armour, IIRC.

Which space marine is gonna be the princess?

I am! (Actually I love my 'nids so really I’d be a queen.)

Shit, I haven’t even played Rome 2 properly yet and Rome was my favourite one! Very excited about this though.

Glad to see People Make Games cover this. They have a lot of reach

Ooh. Fond memories. A friend and I held the top spot on the coop leaderboards for a handful of levels once upon a time

Prox, do games w N++ — 10th anniversary update

I picked this up on Steam for cheap today just so I don’t have to hook up my PS4. Still a super duper amazing game.

I have no idea how to unlock the TEN++ content, though.

12 Playable Characters at launch, with many more released via Season Model

Ugh. No thanks then.

Pretty par for the course for a fighting game though, no?

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds,

still a shitty trend

What would you prefer instead?

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds,

invalid question,

I think getting kicked in the nuts hurt and I don’t like it

WELL? WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GET KICKED???

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

I’d rather people get paid when they work hard to add stuff to a video game.

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds,

then make a videogame, not part of a game for 59.99$ then you have to buy the rest of the game picmeal. only so the executives get bonuses and the people actually working get crunch time.

kay4749,

I agree and support this sentiment.

However, the correct approach would always be to wait until all content is available and then torrent the game for free.

If corporations want to “it’s just business” us, then we should “just business” them right back.

I am not an Avatar fan, but I will caution Avatar fans that Nickelodeon games are historically made for shoestring budgets; basically whatever they find in the couch cushions. As a fighting game fan, there’s enough left to the imagination here that this game could be literally anything, and the developer has no other games to its name on Steam.

QuantumTickle,

Watch the Announcement Trailer for Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game (working title), an upcoming action fighting game based on the beloved Avatar franchise, developed by Gameplay Group International in collaboration with Paramount.

Nickelodeon isn’t mentioned and I don’t believe they’ve been a part of Avatar’s new development studio or creative direction for awhile.

While I do see a generic game, it’s worth blaming the right people.

kay4749,

Nickelodeon isn’t mentioned and I don’t believe they’ve been a part of Avatar’s new development studio or creative direction for awhile.

What makes you believe that? The IP is owned by Nickelodeon. Literally nothing gets done without their approval.

Oh my god I’ve been waiting for this one for years. I thought it was dead at this point since I never saw another trailer since the reveal trailer years ago

@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

The only destruction I remember in FC2 was the fire spreading system. 🤔

I also can’t believe Rust didn’t make the cut, considering how popular it still is and it having a destruction system similar to Teardown and Red Faction.

GammaGames,

When did Rust add that? Back when I played it was essentially Ark/Fortnite building

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

It’s been there as long as I can remember. Make a big tower and take out the bottom. The whole thing collapses.

GammaGames,

Oooh, Teardown and Red Faction have a bit more physics involved but I see the comparison

Loving the gore, but the combat looks really basic.

Looks like you just press square and Wolverine locks on and snaps to an enemy.
