Yeah. That’s bad. Whose the developer?

Testuserplsignore,

Care to specify what did you dislike?

GONADS125,

Not the one you asked, but this looks like a low-quality mobile phone turd to me. It also looks too similar to the only game that could rival ET as the worst game in history… I personally wouldn’t bother given the Wheeble Wobble art style and being seemingly built on Gollum.

Son_of_dad,

Free range games. Looks like they’ve only done oddworld:soulstorm and a mobile game before that

MisterBrickBrack, do games w The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria™ - Launch Trailer

This looks a bit underwhelming, and I’m not even meaning the visual style they leaned towards. I just think the combat looks a bit flat and the adventuring about the caves that I’ve seen in other gameplay has seemed rather stiff and lifeless (for lack of a more apt descriptor because I haven’t played it)

Anyone else think this is missing some polish and spirit?

Spacemanspliff,

Yeah definitely didn’t do a good job of really making me wanna play it, though it does look significantly better then gollum did, but that’s not a very high bar to cross.

GONADS125,

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how much polish goes into it. A polished turd is still but a turd…

verysoft,

It's an attempt at a quick cash grab by some publisher, abusing the LOTR IP and it's current resurgence in popularity. Epic Games only too. I wouldn't be surprised to hear later down the line how the devs have been on crunch to get a game out in a ridiculously short amount of time.

Epic store only is a dealbreaker, especially in the age of the Steam Deck

maxprime,

Is it possible to play EGS games on steam deck?

aesopjah,

Yes, but not as seamless. You basically add the epic store as a ‘game’

HeavyRaptor,

Not at all, you can use Heroic launcher to add games individually

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

It is. And you can choose if you want to use the Epic launcher or not as well.

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

You can play both Epic and GOG games on the Steam Deck, and you can do it with or without the Epic and GOG launchers. Your choice. I did so today, in fact.

The Steam Deck runs Linux. That means anything that runs on Linux, and most things that run on Windows or Android can be run. Including Windows-only software.

Idk why people act in this day and age like the Steam Deck is some crippled device. Unless your desktop runs Linux, your Steam Deck can run more things than it can.

Please don’t misunderstand their criticism. It’s not criticism of the Steam Deck, but of Epic as a company. Epic’s store is the crippled thing, not the Steam Deck.

Yeah, we can work around it, as customers. We should not have to.

I’m having a ton of fun playing it with friends. One of the best games I’ve played this year. We had to drag ourselves off of it so we could go to sleep.

I’m so glad I can buy the games separately. I’m really only wanting to play MGS3 but already own 1 and 2 on GOG

stephfinitely, do games w METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol.1 | Launch Trailer

I knew this would be a lazy port but I had hope for a little bit more compatibility.

echo64, do games w METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol.1 | Launch Trailer

I know a lot of people are super down on this, it’s a fairly low effort collection and we are often spoilt by other companies.

But it’s the games as they were and its nice to have an accessible way of playing them so I’m excited at least. I really didn’t want to have to dig out a ps2/3 to play MGS2

ProfessorProteus,
@ProfessorProteus@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah it does look a little low-effort. My first thought was about the GTA trilogy debacle. But it can’t be that bad right?

Konami doesn’t deserve the money, but it’s hard to argue against accessibility, so I won’t. If someone wants to enjoy these iconic games I wouldn’t try to stop them.

Defaced, do games w Squadron 42: Hold The Line

Says their game is feature complete then starts talking about new features they’re adding and improving. Not sure these guys know what feature complete means.

It’s obviously not vaporwave, but it’s clearly vaporware.

Kaldo, do games w Squadron 42: Hold The Line
@Kaldo@kbin.social avatar

I ain't falling for it again, I will believe it once it's actually out and playable, until then they can fuck off.

@ADHDefy@kbin.social avatar

Did they get Gillian Anderson for this fucking game?! lol

Carighan,
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah but I think they did it back in 2013. No clue whether the contract is still valid or it’s all old capture.

shartedchocolate, do games w Squadron 42: Hold The Line

Alienate a shitload of gamers in favour of whales and shovel cute trailers. RSI is a joke. People that keep telling others to install and try it are the same people that bought RAGE and thought it was a full game.

avater, (edited ) do games w Squadron 42: Hold The Line
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

It turns out Squadron 42 is NOT vaporwave.

that is a very bold statement. I would wait until release before I make any conclusions.

I must admit that the first seconds of the trailer are looking beautiful but the gameplay then suffers from the same issues (strange controls and a horrendous framerate) of the base game.

After all this time and for a singleplayergame without any server issues, this is quite alarming.

Carighan,
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah in theory this sounds awesome. But given the shoddy state of the multiplayer alpha, I wonder how/when this will release.

Still, if they actually bring this out in a year or so, I would definitely check it out (given 1-2 years for bugfixes, learning from CP2077).

drekly,

It’s an absolute joke that fans of SC say ‘when you get a clear server it runs perfect’, because it doesn’t. I’ve been in a brand new, freshly populating, rebooted server. The game runs like ass, the bugs are still everywhere. it’s just a badly made game and the design ethos is “we added more time wasting for realism!” (when they’re pretending not to just be ship salesmen)

Also, haven’t they STILL not decided on the final flight model for the game?

oh, so there is still hope

@shapis@lemmy.ml avatar

Bought the game after following it for a while and thinking to myself there’s no way it doesn’t release later this year.

That happened in 2014.

Lol.

SkyezOpen,

I once dug into old reddit threads and the cope is always the same. “They’ve made so much progress it’ll be done in a year or two tops!” over and over since the early '10s

I wonder if anyone’s made a compilation.

Answer the call 2016!

I’ll believe it when I see it.

TurboHarbinger, do games w Squadron 42: Hold The Line

No comments until it’s released. I just hope it doesn’t take more than a year.

magic_lobster_party,

Spoiler: it will
