RagnarokOnline, do gaming w Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty – Official Cinematic Trailer

Story looks dope. Still not preordering.

fsxylo, (edited )

Yup. Definitely playing 2.0 because why not, but gonna wait for user reviews before I buy expansion.

chrisphero,

Exactly! It all looks good on paper, but I’m definitely waiting for reviews. Fool me once…

Murdoc,

Not that the original reviews were that great to go by either. Could have kept me from a lot of enjoyment.

chrisphero,

I played it even one day earlier on PS5… and the experience really wasn’t that great tbh, and than I had a game breaking bug on top of that as well.

I decided to just wait for the DLC and the big patch… we’ll, this took 3 years haha

Yeah, I'm not that convinced that the new skill trees are any better or that they fixed the gearing/level scaling experience. Will definitely give 2.0 a try but might as well wait for a big discount with PL, after all it's not like they are going to work on the game afterwards anyway. The team will be moved to witcher 4 and cyberpunk 2077 is being developed by a new US studio, IIRC.

Side order and mariokart be looking good. league expanding outside of their MOBA and lore expansion is cute. Probably looking to capitalism off the show. Contra looks good even if it’s not “new”. Gf texted me demanding SpyXAnya.

But Jesus there was like 3 or 4 Turn Based RPGs with medieval settings and sprite artwork. In competition with Fire Emblem how is there this many? Good for competition I guess.

These remakes (Luigi mansion 2) are great and all but it really shows that if the cartridge slot had been 3ds sized from the beginning they wouldn’t be able to sell you these games again. LM2 isn’t that old to need a remake but they EoL’d the 3ds so here we are. Pretty diverse announcement set.

freebread,

Unicorn Overlord is from Vanillaware though- I’m willing to give anything coming from them a shot.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Same here. Though, I still haven’t tried 13 Sentinels, so can’t say anything about their recent games. Loved their 2D brawler / RPG ones.

freebread,

Highly recommend 13 Sentinels if you’re a fan of visual novels. Simply beautiful with great music and characters. If you’re not a fan of VNs though, the RTS gameplay is so minimal that I wouldn’t bother. It’s well-designed and enjoyable but barely 10% of the runtime.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Oh, it’s on my wish list, I just have a huuuuge wishlist and a backlog, so haven’t gotten around to it yet.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I think it’s kind of a genre revival. The genre was very under represented for a long time, so probably many devs started working on such games, and then ended up releasing them all close to each other.

I’m glad to see Yahtzee is still doing actual critical reviews. There’s a shortage of that these days.

@harmonea@kbin.social avatar

It's pretty much all he does unless he finds an Obra Dinn-tier darling.

Except for Gollum, he was weirdly defensive of that for a game that pulled every AAA anti-consumer trick in the book without at least the decency to be bland.

joelfromaus,
@joelfromaus@aussie.zone avatar

Yeah, I don’t know who’s thinking Yhatzee is only doing positive reviews. I watch him regularly but I always keep in mind that it could be a 10/10 game that everyone loves and his show is predominantly about shitting on games so he’ll tear it to shreds for entertainment.

BG3 is what games used to be and what they should have been like. It bring me back to my KotOR1/2, and Witcher 1 days. It’s great.

@Nitrate55@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

This reminds me of the time Ubisoft developers decided to have a bitchfit about Elden Ring because it didn’t have any of the same shitty monetization or trash formulaic design choices as their games.

It’s like these developers think that because they’re painfully mediocre, every other studio is required to be as well.

50MYT,

In similar fashion, EA/Dice woukd have desperately tried to ignore battlebit.

4 devs made a game that is better in nearly every way than any of the last few battlefield games in their spare time.

I hope AAA studios clear house and find a new formula that doesn’t ruin good IP.

50gp,

dice is the perfect example of a studio with the worst kind of incompetent people in charge of game direction

they released a great game in battlefield 1 and went to shit after that chasing trends and monetisation strategies over everything else

(shoutout to the guys who worked on base gameplay of BFV, they got fucked over by dumb decisions from higher up)

Wahots,
@Wahots@pawb.social avatar

Battlefield 1 is still good. God it’s fun to play. Though they left balance kinda weird on the last update. I wish standard issue rifles were better than the theoretical automatics that most soldiers didn’t have, or the ones that were invented in the last week of the war.

Or Hogwarts Legacy, which did the Ubi formula without the nonsense.

barsoap,

HZD is also extremely Ubisofty, but done right.

Crankenstein,

Same. It was rough but damn it was good fun. I really hope they cleaned up the edges with two and full send it with that dark satire angle again. I want them to double down with the humor they cultivated for the in-game world.

That’s what happened to that cancelled TimeSplitters reboot, too.

dota__2,

what’s even more wild is that it’s pay to play too.

Joelio, do games w Coffeezilla does a third part of his CS:GO gambling expose...where he squarely puts the blame on Valve

Valve just needs a way to ensure you are over the age of 18, and I know a way they can do that WITHOUT collecting IDs. They need to incorporate an age quiz like leisure suit Larry.

_cryptagion,

Or just fucking turn off trading stupid weapon skins? Idk, seems like the bare fucking minimum of effort.

Mandy, do games w The Witcher IV — Cinematic Reveal Trailer | The Game Awards 2024

Have they even written a line of code yet?
Guess neither people nor they learned that infinite hype is a disgustingly fake practice.

illi,

It was already reported entering full production some time ago

_cryptagion,

They’ve been working on it full-time for two years, so yeah. They’ve probably written one or two lines.

pumpkinseedoil,

Even if they’d take a decade from now to release it, I wouldn’t mind. If I’ve learnt anything from CDPR it’s that masterpieces take time, and I’d much rather have a masterpiece in a decade than something half finished now.

Mandy,

a decade, and than multiple years to make them playable with broken promises and lies.
Masterpieces alright.

Zahille7, do games w Can you trust Valve? Honest criticism of Steam.

Why is Lemmy getting these types of posts? There were all kinds of posts a couple months ago when the lawsuit was going on, and now this one?

Is Tim Sweeney trying to AstroTurf Lemmy?

smeg,

If he is then he needs to try harder, people really hate Epic here!
