Nighed, w Gamers Nexus: ASUS ROG Ally Deep-Dive Review: Thermals, Gaming, Power, SD Card, and More vs. Steam Deck
@Nighed@sffa.community avatar

Not sure why they said they would have to buy a new one to investigate the SD card reader issue - could they not return that one as it’s broken?

EnderofGames, w What are some good funny games/mods out there?

There is a mod made for Halo: Custom Edition called "Cursed Halo". The creator, Inferno Plus, has made three versions, now, and the newest is for Halo: Master Chief Collection. The humour is abundant, and it is an absolute ride when he makes a new version.

EnderofGames,

Oh, something I thought of, there is a ROM Hack for Super Mario World I'd recommend, too, called "Diagonal Mario 2". Being in that community, I know of several fun, funny, and trolly hacks- but Diagonal really doesn't rely on SMW, kaizo, or community knowledge. Its humour and gameplay are pretty accessible for anyone.

Saledovil, w Paradox of Hope, a Metro-style VR game, has been removed from the Steam Store following a copyright claim

The one with more money has the upper hand.

That sums up so many problems with the legal system. I suppose the completed form would be “The one with more money has the upper hand, also racism”.

nottheengineer, w What do you think is a good required completion time for video games? What examples come to mind of games that felt just right?

Some games like Ultrakill are short and sweet, but others like Factorio can keep you busy for weeks. Both of them felt right for me, but then again I have quite a bit of free time.

If you like shooters, check out anything from New Blood, Turbo Overkill and Postal brain danaged. Those games are segmented into individual levels, which is great for when you just have half an hour.

ezures,

Theres one way to make ultrakill last forever https://lemmy.wtf/pictrs/image/df2627d0-5006-4a62-ac7e-1eb5bea0908d.jpeg

Kolanaki, w Baldur's Gate 3's director hasn't completely ruled out DLC
!deleted6508 avatar

While DLC would be welcome, I really want a toolset to make my own campaigns.

@FoundTheVegan@kbin.social avatar

I would too, but I get the feeling WotC might not allow that. They are hard core pushing their digital tabletop replacement with D&D beyond. A custom baulders for a flat fee would seriously eat in to their subscription model profits.

Which I'm all for! I'd definitely play custom BG campgains but I have no interest in paying $10 bucks a month for a Skype game or whatever.

There have been digital tabletop tools that allow you to play any game for so long, that are free, I don’t see how they would ever really get anyone on board with a subscription service to do the same thing.

I use a couple myself with my group. They have some premium features like access to tilesets; but they also allow importing an image to use so it’s not like I feel compelled to subscribe.

Aqarius,

It’s what the point of the licensing mess a few months back was: to rope dnd-one away from third party VTTs

FoundTheVegan,
@FoundTheVegan@kbin.social avatar

Those free versions only exist because of the OGL, which WotC wanted to rein in. In part because of their own VTT being in development. This was also before WotC changed how they sold their books, now they are slanted to being part of a Beyond membership. While 3rd party seller still have a supply of books, the WotC main website is now only selling physical books as a bundle with a digital one for an up charge. Wizards is changing and is very much transitioning to prioritize their digital goods.

I mean this isn't just a wild conspiracy theroy, Wizards themselves said as much during an investor meeting.

Potatos_are_not_friends, w [Rumor] Mass Effect 4 will ditch an open world and return to its "classic format", insider teases

Budget cuts?

Or because of Mass Effect Andromeda? I dont think the problem with Andromeda was the open world…

BlemboTheThird, w Starfield Is Seemingly Missing Entire Stars (the local 'sun') When Running On AMD Radeon GPUs

And here I was just reading that AMD GPUs showed much better performance in Starfield. Maybe it’s because they’re just not rendering stuff at all lmao

bionicjoey, w What are some good funny games/mods out there?

Octodad: Dadliest Catch is one of only 2 games that ever made me laugh so hard I cried. The other has already been mentioned in this thread (Jazzpunk)

DrQuint, w What are some good funny games/mods out there?

Game with comedy at its core?

Jazzpunk. It’s an absurdist spy thriller. VERY absurdist. Every stage is basically a bit.

bionicjoey,

Jazzpunk is like the Naked Gun of games

trash, w Todd Howard says Starfield mod support is on the way next year

Laughs is 24fps on PC

Funny I noticed this on New Atlantis and just chalked it up to the devs being lazy

!deleted6508 avatar

Jesus. That pattern someone recognized with the releases of the toolset for each game might have been right on the money. The last game it took 6 months. The previous game was 3. Before that it was under 2. Starfield’s will come in a year 😩

Technically next year is in ~3.5 months. It could launch in January

Blamemeta, w Tomorrow's Immortals of Aveum Update 3 Fixes DLSS 3 Issues, Improves PS5/Xbox Series Upscaling and More

Im surprised anyone is bothering to keep track of the game. It had a peak player count of 751. Not 751k, just 751.

PenguinTD,

Well, it’s surprisingly an 8/10 game graphics aside. There is no mtx, they still fix their game despite low player count on steam. (no idea how many players on the EA play/Gamepass or console. But on PC if you meet the requirement you can run the game really smoothly. (I run 6800XT so at default 1440p/60fps no issue at all. )

I originally bought it for science and see how UE5 features run on my machine from a released game, and it does surpass my expectation. Also see what’s currently possible with those UE5 tech.

It does have kinda bad luck release timing wise, but it fits a good “alt” game you can play without any commitment. (no season pass, no battle pass, no grinding requirements/mission, semi open world but the main plot can be done without doing those exploration/puzzles. ) So I’d assume the sale can last longer people can play this game with more modern PC build.

Blamemeta,

All thats well and good, but marketing simply failed. Literally the first I and many others heard of it was the 751 peak player count. Maybe itll get more popular as time goes on, but thats a hell of climb.

PenguinTD,

Lol, I bought on EGS cause I know developer will get more money out of that purchase.(12% and they don’t have to pay UE royalty for sales on EGS. I do this pretty much for all unreal engine games.)

But I think the honest hw spec probably scare off a lot of potential PC buyers of this type of game. If somehow they have a demo as show case + spec check then people might be more willing to try or even buy.

@bloopernova@programming.dev avatar

Should’ve been there from the start.

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

I don’t even understand the delays. They have claimed that the tools they release are the same tools they use to build out their games. Shouldn’t they already have working tools? And what really changes between the games that I can’t just use Fallout 4’s or Skyrim’s creation kit? I’ve always found this to be odd.

Chailles,
@Chailles@lemmy.world avatar

The tools are usually stripped down versions of their internal kits. At least, that’s what I’ve read on the topic. I don’t actually know whether that’s entirely true or to what extent if it is.

The other reason may also have to do with console modding. Getting that set up or whatever.

Dirk_Darkly,

After playing their games for many years, I’m not convinced their tools are working.

DrQuint,

When Bethesda launches mod support, they will do it as a Creation Platform. They don’t want mods to merely exist, they want to control its presentation.
