itsJoelle, w Baldur's Gate 3 Will Release on Mac on September 21, Alongside the 3rd Major Patch

Been looking forward to this :)

I want to see how the M1 version fairs on my tiny laptop. Obviously it won’t be as good as my gaming machine, but finally: a Metal title I’m interested in that can push the hardware!

Saledovil, w Why Unity's New Install Fees Are Spurring Massive Backlash Among Game Developers - IGN

I’m confused. I’ve never licensed a game engine, but I figure you’d write what charges you pay into the contract, and as far as I know, you can’t just add additional charges in later without renegotiating the contract. At least, you’d have no way to enforce those. So I’m sort of at a loss how this is even supposed to work.

Mandarbmax,

The game engine is licensed as a subscription. When January 1st rolls around and the dev’s meed to renew their subscription it will have these new terms. Their options are to accept this or to never update their games again.

Saledovil,

Makes sense. I hope the unity guys come to their senses. This whole thing seems rather self-destructive on the company’s part. Unity is far from being a monopoly, with one competitor being free and open source (Godot). And pulling stunts like these, even if you walk them back later, does not engender trust.

Mandarbmax,

For sure. Proprietary software, and especially subscription licensed proprietary software, is a blight.

BubblyMango,

Oh, but already completed games that dont want to make more updates dont need to pay this fee right?

Mandarbmax,

As I understand it yes, that is correct.

conciselyverbose, w Starfield Bug Forces Players to Change Gender to Fire Guns

I'm vaguely curious what gets re-initialized by changing gender to fix this.

Cavemanfreak,

Apparently it’s nothing to do with changing the gender, only opening the character creation screen. So you can open that screen and then just close it, and it should work again. Weird bug though!

conciselyverbose,

The article says that the console command to swap genders also works.

I haven't experienced it so I have no clue.

turtlepower,

You haven’t experienced swapping genders? All the cool kids are doing it.

schmidtster,

Wonder if that pseudo opens the screen.

520,

It might alter some of the same variables causing this bug.

Blamemeta,

It runs the change character script, which resets animations.

4am,

It probably triggers a write of the character data which ends up overwriting some bad value that is actually causing the problem.

WolfhoundRO,

This is why you don’t use global variables, kids!

MissGutsy,

If starfield works like every other Bethesda game, the game can’t actually change the gender directly, it instead remakes your entire character, which will reset whatever is causing the bug

JPAKx4,

Prgramng!

Mathazzar,

I had a bug caused by the shipselling bug where each time I went through a load screen my gender and appearance randomized. So I can’t even begin to guess how all the noodles are connected.

yaminoEXE, w Princess Peach: Showtime! | Nintendo Direct 9.14.2023

They put her in pants, think of the children. Nintendo is so woke nowadays.

This is what right wing YouTubers will say. Or Mormon pundits.

NOT_RICK, w Unity backtracks slightly on plans to charge developers for game installs
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

They’re idiots for this policy. You alienate your devs, you ruin your platform.

Saledovil,

Most businesses get ruined if you alienate your customers. The exception would be monopolies.

I think they removed Only Up! for that reason

Mini_Moonpie,

From games as a service we went to game engine as a service. What is the next step? C++ as a service?

Don’t give them ideas.

LoafyLemon,

C++ rebranding as €++ 🤑

ChickenAndRice,

More like oxygen as a service at this rate

maynarkh,

There absolutely were non free language compilers at some point. If we hadn’t had tjings like GCC, it’d be a different world.

Just look at Apple, they always asked money for XCode.

gk99, w New PlayStation 5 update allows for second controller assist

Glad they’re finally catching up to Xbox from a platform features standpoint. Things like this were why I used to be so pro-Xbox, but that gap is narrowing rapidly.

gk99, w Square Enix games misfire due to being "single producer's fiefdom", report suggests

Maybe they shouldn’t be doing everything possible to drive off consumers. Exclusivity deals everywhere, prices that don’t like to dip, multiple versions of the same game so you need to pay more for the complete thing later. I tried to get into FF with 15, and I actually really liked it. Then all this nonsense happened with FF7R and I just gave up because it seemed like a pain to try and follow the series.

corrupts_absolutely, w Faze Clan fires CEO as esports industry struggles

they should hire mr burns hes good at taking lollipops from children

FunderPants, w Creators of Slay the Spire will migrate their next game to a new engine if Unity doesn't completely revert their changes
fogetaboutit, w The next Sims game will be free-to-play with paid DLC

If sims 5 doesnt allow my sims to exit the house without loading screen, then it isnt worth it

geosoco,

The loading screen is optional DLC. Definitely not a micro-transaction. Just very small DLC.

I want to actually watch them do their jobs, too. Not just enter a building and forcing me to watch time go by for the 8 hours they are there. I don’t care if they’re just packing boxes for Samazon; I mean, I will watch them watching TV. Watching them do boring stuff isn’t that boring.

bionicjoey,

Agreed. Working is the worst part of the Sims. They make you just fucking sit there for all that time staring at the outside of a building

fogetaboutit,

yeah, jobs on sims 3 is basically entering a building and waiting. With an occasional prompt about “what should your sims do?”

DocBlaze,

you never used open careers mod? it sort of works how like university life did. you get career progression from using associated objects, and are otherwise are free to talk to your coworkers, grab lunch, etc during the work day.

fogetaboutit,

That sounds awesome actually, but no im not aware of it. I think it would be nice if its integrated tho

forgotaboutlaye, w Disney Dreamlight Valley finally adds Belle - and Beast - in today's update

I had a blast with Dreamlight but took a break about 4months ago. Looking forward to seeing what I’ve missed in that time.
