DrSleepless, w Diablo 4 Twitch viewership continues to drop as Diablo 3 overtakes it

They kept nerfing the fun out of it

Swim,

correction, they were feeding us medicine but forgot the sugar.

Cheers,

That implies they’re doing something good for us. This is like giving your friend a box of smokes and then offering them chewing gum to hit the nicotine fix. It didn’t help, but I guess I have some gum now.

Swim,

this is litetally the analogy blizzard used.

Xanvial,

Last few updates there’s only buff I think. Seems the nerf patch only happened before season 1

Jamie, w Unity reportedly considering cap on hugely controversial per-install fees
@Jamie@jamie.moe avatar

I had a feeling something like this was gonna come. It’s an age old trick.

Do something that makes people mad and gets attention.

Let it stew for a few days while you’re “considering” things.

Come out and say you made a mistake and the initial plan was misguided, present the thing you were actually planning to do instead.

Brag about how much you “care about feedback” while still doing what you want

Chariotwheel,

It doesn't work the same here as with B2C products. Excluding hobby developers who wouldn't been hit either way. most people paying for Unity are trying to make a living and a company eradically throwing the pricing model around is not a good look when there are altrnatives around.

People can and will go to alternatives for new projects. Unreal, if you want a marketplace and impressive 3D and Godot if you want FOSS. Not to mention the otber game engines.

It's about money here, in some cades not little amount of money.

Being Blizzard’s highest-sold game ever

Do you guys not have phones? With an internet connection to read about the things Blizzard has been doing with their games recently?

Anticorp, w A quarter of Starfield players couldn’t even be bothered to finish the first mission

Starfield has been out for long enough now that anyone interested in playing it likely already has.

Not even close, especially not in the year that also brought us Baldur’s Gate and Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. How much free time does this writer think everyone has?

explodicle,

It’s a Bethesda game. In a year most of the bugs will be fixed by the Unofficial Starfield Special Edition Patch, and it’ll be on sale.

Cethin,

They were actually fairly accurate that it’s their least buggy title yet. That’s not to say there are none, but they are few and far between. The game just isn’t that fun for now. Animations take too long (currently already mods to fix most of them), traveling is boring, outposts suck, and just so much QoL changes are needed. Bug fixing isn’t really required from my experience. Plenty of other fixes are though.

Feathercrown,

As much as they do, probably

Aganim, (edited )

Yup, definitely interested in Starfield. But at the moment still enjoying Act I of BG3, Cyberpunk 2077 patch 2.0 and DLC are right around the corner and after I’ve finished those Cityies: Skylines 2 will be available. So I’ll probably have time for Starfield somewhere early 2024, depending on if my recurring Satisfactory itch hits before that. But by that time more official and unofficial bugfixes and QoL mods will be available, so I’m fine with waiting a bit longer to play. This year is just filled with too many goodies. 😁

Cethin,

I’ve played Starfield (did not purchase it on Steam…) and it’s alright. I haven’t finished it, and I won’t be for a while. It’s is missing so much QoL and so many thing will need the mod toolkit for modders to fix, which isn’t available yet. It should not be purchased by anyone at the moment. You’ll have a better time in several months, and it’ll quite possibly be cheaper.

There’s so much else to play. I’m wanting to get around to Armored Core 6 sometime, but Payday 3 is coming out, and Cities Skylines 2 and Counter Strike 2 (both CS2, and cities dropped it’s ‘:’ to add to the confusion) are coming soon. I may hop back into Cyberpunk if I get around to it, but it’s on the lower end of the list. There’s literally no reason for anyone to bother purchasing Starfield for a bit.

TheDarkKnight,

Yeah this one is most definitely back burnered cause it didn’t launch with DLSS and Bethesda always has a million bugs. I’ll wait for the mods to fix everything and play the polished games first.

ZOSTED,

I haven’t even got around to Sea of Stars, for pity’s sake

hitmyspot,

Why buy then? Wait for a sale and buy then.

BlackEco, w Spider-Man 2's Ray Tracing Feature Always On
@BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com avatar

Somehow I was convinced that Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart was Insomniac’s first always-on ray-tracing game and that non-raytraced graphics had been added to the PC port but I was completely wrong.

mindbleach, w Your Minecraft account might be gone forever unless you act now

Yeah hey that game you bought? Fuck you, jump through hoops.

HKayn,
@HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

That’s on you for buying a licence to play the game and not the actual game.

mindbleach,

Fuck that stupid word game.

mindbleach, w Xbox Partners With Alpine F1 Team For Multi-year Sponsor Deal As "Official Console Partner"

Anti-competitive exclusivity is the only thing propping up the facade of console platforms.

Never in my life has gaming ever thronged me into rioting. I’d rather play games instead

Yea, I tried League of Legends, but it wasn’t my thing so I don’t play Riot games.

Police officer shoot a dark skinned kid point blank, at the corner of Place Nelson Mandela no less, people revolt in protest:
“These damn gamers”

Checks out.

I swear if this had been a movie, people would complain about the plot.

I wish there were more games licensed to use idtech.

Kolanaki, w DC Comics adamant The Wolf Among Us' source material is not in the public domain, as its creator calls them 'thugs and conmen' and insists it is
!deleted6508 avatar

This seems kinda random for a game that old and nothing changed between its release and now. Is there a sequel in the pipe or something? Why now all of a sudden would they make this press release?

chuckleslord,

This is about the comics that game is based on and the characters/settings therein. Not just the material in the game itself.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

Yes this has all started by the announcement of the reboot of the A Wolf Among Us by a team who bought the rights to TellTale old library.

That new company didn’t legally have the rights to the new title as they assumed and DC pushed on them.

In response to this Bill released his creator-owned series to the public domain. Meaning anyone can make adaption of his work now.

Other examples of creator owned DC comics works is The Sandman and Y: The Last Man.

circuitfarmer, w The Elder Scrolls VI will skip PS5 and isn’t coming until at least 2026
@circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I get why PS5 players should be upset, but as a PC player, this is also bad news.

Starfield had to run on the Xbox, the base model of which is the least powerful console on the market (leaving out Nintendo). It seems clear that some decisions around Starfield were made to ensure it would still run on that lackluster hardware.

Doubling down on that for ESVI means the same thing. We’ll get less game so that M$ can have an exclusive.

And that’s ignoring general trust issues with Bethesda entirely.

Selmafudd, w Diablo 4 Twitch viewership continues to drop as Diablo 3 overtakes it

How could d4 have possibly sold more copies than wow?

Sparhawk87,

Just my 2 cents but could be the extra 2 Billion people in the world since release. When wow came out internet wasn’t as widespread and fast as now, as well as anyone buying into wow after the 2nd or 3rd expansion might have trepidation with the sheer amount of content.

Kuro, w Diablo 4 Twitch viewership continues to drop as Diablo 3 overtakes it

Glad I didn’t bother with the game

JokeDeity, w A quarter of Starfield players couldn’t even be bothered to finish the first mission

I don’t have this game yet but I know out of the box modding any of the Fallout or Elder Scrolls games disables achievements (but you can get around this with other mods), so I assume it’s the same here. Bethesda games being some of the most modded games of all time I wouldn’t be surprised if even a lot of first time players were using one or two mods and having their achievements disabled.

MonkCanatella, w Spider-Man 2's Ray Tracing Feature Always On

Love Insomniac so much. Not many companies have such a stellar track record. And there’s never been a single mtx in any of their games that I’ve played.
