BlackEco, w Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare Coming to Switch and PS4
@BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com avatar

That’s not what I wanted, I wanted RDR on PC 😟

Anyway, it’s extremely weird that they chose to release it on PS4 with backward compatibility to PS5 🤔 (according to Rockstar)

This gives me a little hope that we can at least emulate the PS4 version (using pcsx4). This can be done already with the PS3 version but the requirements are hefty and it’s pretty clunky.

Edit: nm, pcsx4 is scammy and bad news.

    My thinking was the graphics themselves actually, on the assumption that the Switch version wouldn’t look as good, but wasn’t considering that this is an old title so probably won’t matter

    But which did better, and by how much over the other?

    As of August 6, 2023, The Super Mario Bros. Movie has grossed $574.2 million in the United States and Canada, and $779.3 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $1.355 billion.

    wiki

    [Tears of the Kingdom] sold more than 10 million copies in its first three days of release, and had sold over 18.5 million copies by June 2023.

    wiki

    at 69.99 a game, would mean the total volume sold is roughly $1.295 billion, 60 million less than the Super Mario Movie.

    I’m not certain if the movie gross is the same calculation though. It seems that the calculation is fair But data for Tears of the Kingdom is about a month older so that it seems possible it passed The Super Mario Movie by now.

    James, w Xbox Game Pass trial reduced from one month to 14 days

    A little bit puzzling at first, but it does make sense.

    With starfield coming out, they don’t want people to get the trial to essentially play it for free and then stop using the service.

    1 month is just about enough time to beat a large game for someone who has a few hours a day to play. 14 days won’t be enough for most people.

    What if Chuck E Cheese was in your bedroom and it was marketed to make you feel like you were missing out if you didn’t have the thing your friend’s had, but you can’t buy the thing, oh no that’s too easy. We’ll let you buy the chance to own the thing.

    Shere_Khan,

    I’ll give you the proximity point, it is easier to access loot boxes when they are in a game.

    But as for the missing out part, yeah that’s how it works. Your friend wins something from the claw machine or gets a bunch of tickets, now you want that. That’s part of the fun, your parents could just buy the toy but that’s lame

    DarraignTheSane,
    @DarraignTheSane@lemmy.one avatar

    But your parents can’t just buy the toy. The only way to get the toy is through the element of chance - sometimes with a near zero win chance - by spending real world money.

    The only reason it’s not de-facto gambling is that there are consolation prizes, but in most peoples’ view that doesn’t make it morally okay to push on children, nor does it make it completely not gambling either. It’s just gambling with consolation prizes.

    Shere_Khan,

    I disagree that most people view it as bad. Arcades and stuff have been around forever, and are still being used by a ton of people. Just because you don’t want send your kids to chuck E cheese doesn’t mean most people agree with you

    DarraignTheSane,
    @DarraignTheSane@lemmy.one avatar

    You keep relying on the Chuck E. Cheese anology, but it simply doesn’t work. At Chuck E. Cheese the prizes are a bunch of toys that your parents could otherwise buy, and the fun is in playing the games themselves which pay out tickets toward earning those prizes. That is in no way the equivalent of gamble boxes in video games.

    Gamble boxes contain prizes that can’t be bought outside the game, and in nearly every case contain prizes that can’t be bought with the “consolation prize” (i.e. “tickets”) that are dropped when you otherwise win nothing or very little compared to the actual prizes. And there is no inherent “fun” in clicking an “UNLOCK BOX” button compared to actually… playing a game in order to earn prizes. Not comparable at all, really.

    If you’re going to try to convince people they’re not gambling (and you have quite the uphill battle to fight), you’re better off likening them to blind bag grab-packs of card games / collector cards / toys, etc. - Pokemon, Magic the Gathering, sports cards, blind-bag toys etc. That is their closest real-world equivalent. Many would argue that those are also a form of gambling, as well.

    @DarraignTheSane@lemmy.one avatar

    Wait, there are still mobile games without monetization?

    Astronautical,

    Usually ones that come with an upfront cost, but yeah. There’s actually a lot that are pretty good, like Monument Valley 1+2, or Stardew Valley’s mobile port.

    huginn,

    Droechai,

    Unciv on Android is quite fun :)

    Sebastrion,

    The Base Game of Vampire Survivors is free and the DLCs cost a few Dollar like the Steam Version.

    That’s some bullshit. Not radical at all.

    WarmSoda, w Translators for Baldurs Gate 3 worked for 3 years translating more than 1 million words and Altagram Group only credited their execs and leads

    That’s how being a vender works.

    deranger,

    I’d say that’s okay if only the company is credited by name, but the execs names were included. If they’re including names, include all the names. It’s not a long list from what I saw on Twitter.

    Don’t buy the game then. Editor won’t stop if their sales don’t decrease.

    else,

    The game is great and easily the best japanese fighting game experience for casuals. (Mechanically I prefer anime fighters though.) For once a Japanese game has all the bells and whistles instead of almost purely focusing on the multiplayer.

    The cosmetics are what they are. At least it’s not p2w but it’s up to consumers to not spend if they don’t agree with paying more in a game they already bought.

    Edit: downvote me all you want but the truth is that street fighter 6 was a very big step forward for japanese fighting games in terms of what they offer consumers. The fgc hasn’t had games that can truly appeal to and bring in new players so I can’t help but be happy for it. The only exceptions would be NRS’s games and smash.

    cantstopthesignal,

    I don’t know why people hate on this so much. Cosmetics are how they want to make money and it doesn’t fuck up the game play.

    It's like gaming companies almost want to see the market crash with all these bullshit things they are doing. Yet people keep buying into it.

    ThiefUserPermissions,

    Havent made a single apple purchase for over 2 years now.

    This is how it starts. How it ends is up to them.

    sugar_in_your_tea,

    I don’t pay for microtransactions out of principle, yet I’m sure there’s someone else who will not than make up for me. I honestly don’t get it.

    That’s nice, maybe I’ll buy it on sale for $5 one day.

    kostel_thecreed,

    I feel as if it is worth the price its currently at. I got 60 hours out of it, without even doing 100% of the acheivements.

    BakedGoods,

    Sure but they put Denuvo on it so they pay the asshole-tax.

    Since you’ve played it, I do have a couple of questions.

    1). I haven’t played really any JRPGs before so is this game friendly to newcomers or not really? It looks really beautiful and that caught my eye when I first saw it

    2). Do I need to play the previous one to understand what’s going on?

    kostel_thecreed,

    It was also my first JRPG, and I would say it’s pretty easy to grasp the concepts of it.

    No, it’s a separate story line.
