Elevator7009, do games w Kriegsspiel! How Napoleon Accidentally Invented Strategy Games [Super Bunnyhop]

Good content, just wish it wasn’t a video and was an article instead. Bless YouTube transcripts for getting me one step closer to that.

It’s a long video, so I guess you’re sitting down with a book. For the record, the visual aides contributed quite a bit, and a lot of it is him contextualizing something that’s already a book: Playing at the World by Jon Peterson.

Been following Alan Becker since the beginning and it’s been so fun to see him improve his animation. I backed this immediately on Kickstarter and I’m excited to see it come out.

I’m especially excited for the unlocked stretch goal of a Roguelite Mode, I fucking love me some Roguelites

Let‘s see if it is Steamdeck compatible.

George is a veritable treasure. Highly recommend his videos on Pentiment.

Devmapall,

I haven’t watched his videos in years because I stopped watching YouTube like that. I’m so glad he’s still around and apparently is still laying good content.

Viri4thus,

Follow him on nebula. It’s a nice platform afaik, and remunerates content creators better.

It’s most likely because Nintendo is going to use it as a launch title for Switch 2, so they can’t announce the release date of MP4 beforehand.

Still haven’t reworked those ascensions? Still haven’t reinstalled.

PushButton, do games w Path of Exile 2: Dawn of the Hunt Gameplay Trailer

I watched a video of the new warrior ascendency “blacksmith”.

I lost it when the character spawned an anvil out of no where on the battlefield, and started to smash his weapon to buff it with explosive hits…

Like really? That’s what they come up for “charging” your attack? That looks ridiculous and immersion breaking in my opinion.

Anyway… As a poe1 fan, I feel sad when I see what they are doing with their second game.

I am all-in to make it more “soul like”, but there is a clash between having significant fights while having hordes of mobs.

The slowness is becoming tedious very fast and, add on the top that, the enormous size of the maps, the game is becoming an unpleasant chore.

I never thought I would one day say that I am more excited about the new Last Epoch season…

Shayeta,

They tout the “slow and methodical” combat (which I actually liked throughout the campaign) and then they just slap in mechanics like Breach which are antithetical to it.

Feels like there are too many cooks in that kitchen.

SunshineJogger,

Exactly.

The endgame has a speed dps problem and nothing I saw so far fixes that.

xcutie,

The anvil is just a cosmetic effect (a twitch drop). I think it appears when you kill a rare or unique monster and has nothing to do with the blacksmith acendency.

PushButton,

It’s not what I am talking about.

First, the Twitch drop isn’t an anvil but a guillotine, and it was about the new warrior ascendency…

xcutie,

What? Really? That anvil animation would be stupid if it was just for the acendency. When I saw it in the video, I was so sure, it was the mtx.

MudMan, do games w Marvel Cosmic Invasion official announcement trailer, beat 'em up game from the makers of TMNT: Shredder's Revenge

Looks good, seems fun and it's obviously ripping off the SNES demakes of the X-Men CotA and MSH Capcom made, which is 100%, absolutely the right choice.

Can't wait.

Let me sell my digital licenses before we talk about them like they‘re comparable to physical media.

So it’s the overly complicated version of a system that’s on more sane platforms like Steam? Ok.

You can lend games on steam ???

Family sharing I presume. I’m not entirely familiar with the scope of the service myself as I’ve only just set up family sharing with my child. But when I did, they had a huge catalog of games in their own steam account as a result.

thermal_shock,

Yup! Not all, but most. Some with high levels of cheaters block family sharing, like RUST

thermal_shock,

Only recently has steam gotten better at this. I’ve got my account, my kids account, and a 3rd account that owns games we may want to play, so that it doesn’t tie up either of our main accounts or if we want to have a guest use it. (all are shared to each other). Until last year, it was not super easy sharing them all, lots of logins, authorizations, etc.

Exactly ! Steam families are now dead simple, whereas this new oh-so-Nintendo method seems as janky as it gets.

It does have one standout feature that Steam families do not though: ability to play shared games even when offline.

Kelly, do games w Nintendo Announce Virtual Game Cards (Digital Game Sharing)

Its a strategic time for this regime to be implemented. With a sequel console on the horizon a lot of households are going to become 2 switch families soon. Anything to make customers more comfortable spending money will speed the uptake.

For PlayStation I liked they way they let each user nominate 1 primary PS4 and 1 primary PS5. They both could play the PS4 library without restriction so the old console was a perfect hand-me-down.

In comparison for Xbox they have maintained that the whole platform is homogeneous with each account only allowed one home console at a time be it One or Series.

thermal_shock,

This household will be migrating to steamdeck or equivalent. We’ve invested too much into PC games and moving our main desktops to Linux, it only seems right. I’m tired of supporting companies that don’t care about us, only our money, and even then slap you when you’re not looking.

Shredder’s Revenge was a lot of fun, if this has local coop i’ll buy it on release and visit my brother to punch some dudes :)

uber_chicken,

It says in the Steam page that it does

tauren, do games w Nintendo Announce Virtual Game Cards (Digital Game Sharing)

I think that is a good thing. There are many reasons to dislike Nintendo, but they had no pressure to do this due to the lack of competition on their platform from other stores and manufacturers. 14 days is more than enough to finish most games or at least give them a try before buying.

PieMePlenty, do games w Nintendo Announce Virtual Game Cards (Digital Game Sharing)

I don’t get why they needed a 14 day limit. Sounds half baked to me. Steam, although with its own limitations, still does a better job at game sharing.

smeg,

Because if they don’t then you can essentially just give a game away, and that means less sales

Kelly, do games w Nintendo Announce Virtual Game Cards (Digital Game Sharing)

Its still missing physical object’s killer app: permanent license transferability.

With physical objects I can buy them from others, give them to friends, etc and that transfer can be permanent.

All of this lend and automatically return is just a mechanism to block permanent license transfer.
