So, I haven’t watched this yet but I just wanted to say this. I opened this video in an isolated, private tab. I’m not logged in, this is the algorithm in it’s default state. And litteraly the first video YouTube recommends me on the right of this one is a one hour and twenty-one minutes video called “Spider-Man 2 is Disgusting, Woke Propaganda”. YouTube’s default recommandation are still horrendously fucked and immediatly sends you to far right content…
I mean, if your business is able to convert people to a mindset that is more supportive of your business and less likely to regulate it, and all your concerned about is making money, then this is the obvious choice is it not?
beamNG was one of the games that drove me to build a new PC this summer with an actually modern CPU. That physics engine is completely unparalleled but damn have you gotta pay for it.
I QA tested Carmageddon when I worked at Interplay oh so many years ago. It was one of the only games I worked on that I could still play for fun after. I think I still have my boxed copy.
For me it was pretty great. I was young, did not have many expenses and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and weird people. Play testing games got old really quick and it was rare that any game could continue to be fun after “playing” it all day every day. Carmaggedon was one of those few. It was not even a priority as it was part of a package deal that Interplay would publish it along with some other utterly forgettable game. Brian, the owner of the company, took notice of it when he came to QA one day and found a bunch of us playing a LAN game when we were supposed to be working on other titles. After a few years of game testing I was kind of burned out and was going to quit but got hired into the IT dept. Here I am almost 25 yrs later still doing IT, though not in the very volatile games business.
That’s amazing, thanks for telling. I guess you’re partly responsible for my career in game dev and the pitch black humor my friends must endure.
Hey maybe if you ever have a problem with a server or something you can destroy it with your car.
I’ve looked up swiv 3d. It looks super bland and unexciting. I can imagine getting burned out from that. The predecessor looks better. I used to play tyrion 2000 as a kid.
This game is awesome and deserves more credit than it receives. The only thing it lacks imo is built-in multiplayer support (right now you can have mp with a mod but it has some flaws).
Aero is simultaneously half missing and the most detailed aero of any game I’ve played. if you take all the weight out of a piccolina and put a mattress on the roof and push it down a hill it flys.
A long time ago (at least 15 or 20 years) I played a game on PC with physics like this. I specifically remember driving a Dodge Viper, and every crash would crumple the body a little more where it took a hit. At one point I ended up crumpling the entire car into a single tire I could drive around, as the tires were the only thing that didn’t squish.
YES It was a Dodge Viper game, as in that was the only car available I think. And there was a button to either crush the car more or maybe launch it into the air? I’m pretty sure that’s how I managed to crumple it into a ball with wheels just like you. 15 to 20 years ago sounds right
I don’t think that’s the case at all. Gearbox is developing a mobile game to take advantage of owning the property, along with whatever they plan to do with Risk of Rain 2 now. Returns is from the original studio and is more of a love letter / farewell to the franchise.
Hopoo, the original devs, were already making this and got to finish working on it after the purchase. It adds new content and refines the gameplay of the original (movement feels better and the game just generally plays better) - it was also designed with modding in mind.
This was a project by the original developers, not by gearbox. The original game, while incredible, had stability, optimization, and probably most importantly, multiplayer issues.
The community had asked for a way to play together online without third party solutions, but the code base needed to be rebuilt to facilitate that.
The mechanics are similar but it’s a very different game. I would say look up gameplay and decide for yourself if you’d enjoy a 2D version of Risk of Rain.
Braid is the closest I’ve seen videogames come to literature. The best literature is always about something else - not the plot, but deeper themes. And Braid feels like that, to me. Everything in that game, from the story, to the specific mechanics all tie into the greater theme.
Just watched the Digital Foundry review, unprompted by this post. Sounds like it’s a dramatically better screen, and marginally better in every other feature. Better battery, better performance, cooler temps, lighter weight, better storage…this might be the time to jump on the Steam Deck train.
Way nicer from I’ve been told. I am fortunate that literally every game, including some obscure one from freaking 1998 just works. Some Reddit posts from years past hint it definitely had teething issues at first. Early adopter tax I guess.
Oh yeah, I got super excited when it was announced so I preordred the mid tier. Each month after its released it felt like it was getting better with the games I was playing. Considering my life w a newborn this system quickly eclipsed my gaming pc due to the sheer convenience.
Based on my experience of the current Deck I’d say it’s not for everyone, but for my use-case it’s one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. If you’ve got a large backlog of PC games you’ve built up over the years, you’re OK with a little bit of tinkering to get some of them working, and you want to play them curled up on the sofa, then this is definitely the device for you!
The battery seems like better than a marginal improvement. Valve claims 30-50% longer battery life, but some early reviews are reporting better improvements than that (IGN reports that Cyberpunk went from 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours, same settings).
