That looks awesome. I have been on the look out for RTX remixes some are pretty nice and a great way to introduce someone who is a graphics snob to older titles. Quake 2 RTX was fun and I think portal really benefited from the RTX graphics. The RTX reflections in the GTA:V:E are very satisfying I love all this. Don’t know why lemmy is a bunch of pointless assholes who seem to hate something for no reason. God forbid other people fucking enjoy something, cunts.
I am well aware of what ray tracing is. Which is why I know RTX is not simply ray tracing and I can refer to it. I am specifically referring to RTX technology and not ray tracing in general. And heck throw DLSS in there too fucking love that shit. Is it wrong to be impressed with the game I have been playing for ten years because they not only gave us a graphics improvement but also a noticeable performance boost?
It still it is using RTX tech even if it isn’t advertising it. Because RTX is the marketing term of the underlying technology for that ray tracing on Nvidia GPUs. So I am still right to be impressed by its performance. I probably didn’t need to bring it up in my post and left it at the stuff titled RTX. RTX. (and I cannot speak to AMD or Intel GPU technologies, and I don’t see anyone else either)
I was excited, but it's a pass from me. No reputation, no freedom on whom to fight, little ability to customize my character from what I've seen... no thanks.
Literally the first dialogue with Garryck. It’s like it was Va’d by different people depending on your answers.
“That’s the imperial envoy you’re talking to, show some respect” - lol perfect deadpan delivery, emotional delivery is for losers.
And that’s before mentioning all the other missing perks of past obsidian games, like the interactivity of the world. It’s like a single player shooter stuck in an MMO world.
I gave you plenty of evidence, you just decided to ignore it because for some ungodly reason you attached your personal value to it.
70€ for a PC it better be better than just meh and deliver what was promised by the adverts. I work to have those 70€, if a company lies and overcharges, sure as shit it’s a 1. They advertised a completely different game than what was delivered. And this is after 6y.
You’re basically the equivalent to a Taylor Swift fan arguing with people who don’t equate her music to Bach or Brahms…
This genZ-bait soundtrack is making what looks like pretty cool gameplay look incredibly lame. Too many of these GaaS titles that inevitably enshittify use this same marketing to the point where it gives a Pavlovian signal to stay away.
Jup, I watched it without sound first. After reading your comment, I rewatched it with sound. I missed nothing the first time 😅 I hope when its time to heat the marketing machine for release there will be a much better choice…
It’s interesting to me how divisive reactions seem to be on Avowed, some people loving the hell out of it and some being very lukewarm. It’s not even falling along the usual IGN reviewer love vs indie reviewer scepticism divide like Starfield or Veilguard. I wonder what’s driving the difference?
The difference is what people want from their games. If you want a living open world with NPCs who react to stuff. You’re going to have a bad time with Avowed. But if you don’t care about that stuff. Avowed is the game for you.
yeah that’s the problem, when people (myself included) see a game label itself as “RPG” we kind of expect the world to be living, a world that feels like you could go anywhere and find amazing treasures, friends, enemies, anything and everything on your journey! A world where talking to any character could send you on a quest you’ll never forget
in avowed NPCs are static, there’s like 2 non-hostile animals, if something doesn’t have a healthbar your attacks phase through them, every chest has the same 4 ingredients in it, you can’t interact with the enviornment unless it’s a box, an urn, or specific vines, you can’t tell your companions to fuck off ever, if an NPC has a quest for you they’ll have an exclamation mark above their heads - which completely takes away the reason to talk with anyone else but them and vendors, and just sigh it doesn’t feel like an RPG at all to me
after i got a plot breaking bug (plot dialogue wouldn’t progress) i uninstalled it and downloaded skyrim again, which though flawed, at least it’s an RPG
For what it's worth, this game was formerly "Monolith". Fantastic twinstick bullet hell shmup roguelite. Difficulty is somewhat on the hard side but it's learnable.
It was a competitive mainstay for years. Like with MvC2, they could probably charge for this one game what they’re going to charge for the whole collection, and people would pay it.
Steam reviews and only possibly, in only very rare cases, although disappointingly-often not - YouTube video reviews, can be a good source.
The idea is… to not to listen to people who don’t play games the way you do.
A friend, potentially a random Steam user, a Reddi- Lemm- ahem, sorry,a… social media user, a… person who has played the game in question thoroughly and pointed out what they liked - and you know they’re like you, …and they played for similar reasons as you; these are the people to listen to. People who play games, like yourself.
Only they can tell you if the game is totally worth your own time!
that meme is sorta funny. that is actually normal behavior. disney was known for going after people making no money. like literally school plays or such.
