Alright!

As soon as I saw they would be using denuvo I said to myself “nope! Fuck this game”

Hope they keep their promises

Good. Having Denuvo in an always online game was fucking stupid

I still won’t play it because it’s another always online live service

What is it? I've heard the name around but have no idea what the premise or appeal is.

stormesp,

Its an open world first person shooter but with magic instead of guns, it happens in a Shibuya where all the humans have banished and the city is taken over by spirits/yokai both good and bad and the protagonist has to find its sister while posessed by a spirit that has his own goals but at the same time is what gives him powers, all around the story is simple but decent but the open world and lore is where it shines, a lot of missions where you get to know classic japanese folklore and help spirits trapped in this world for a reason or another. All around i enjoyed my time with it and the “gunplay” is pretty decent after the free dlc that they added when the game was released on gamepass which added a side ability to all three different guns/powers.

Oh shit, that actually sounds pretty cool, I was expecting some straight forward RPG by the name of it, I'll definitely check it out. Thank you

stormesp,

No problem! It didnt get the best reception when it was released as it was a sony exclusive that didnt get much marketing at first, but its a nice experience all around and if you decide to go for the story it doesnt overstay its welcome and if you have gamepass you can play it there as i did, so glad i made it interesting for you!

@all-knight-party@kbin.cafe avatar

I had just never heard anyone speak about it, the premise and Japanese mythology already interest me, and it's developed by Tango, the studio ran by Shinji Mikami, so I'm definitely interested to check it out (though I know he's not directly involved, it lends a pedigree to their studio, to me.)

nimmo, w Ubisoft Montreal's mandatory return-to-office order reportedly leaves staff in "turmoil"
@nimmo@lem.nimmog.uk avatar

I find it quite interesting that Ubisoft Montreal chose the same day as my employer to enforce 2 days in the office every week.

I’ll accept that there is a 1 in 356.25 chance that any employer will pick a specific day to enforce a return to office, but it does seem interesting that there would be 2 employers in different countries picking the same day. Is there something special about that day that makes it a special day to change where and how people work? (I know that there were events on 2001 that took place on this day, but that doesn’t seem too likely a reason to pick that particular day to enact this change)

Dienervent,

It's a monday. So that's already more like 1 in 52. There's been like 5-20 news worthy "return to work" announcements in the past year, I'm guessing half othem have mandatory 2 days, the other half have mandatory 3 days.

Multiply that by the number of things that happen in your life where a coincidence of this level could happen and you should be seeing this kind of coincidence a many times each year.

Fair points well made. I thought the 11th was a Wednesday and I’ve been off on holiday for a week or so, so brain no worky so good just now.

I’ll l go back under my lurking rock again.

Oneobi,

Heh, the 2 days will become 3 and then 4.

These idiots are totally destroying work life balance but honestly, they do not care about our welfare or mental health. We are just human machines that they think they own.

What is completely laughable is how they have become advocates of the environment and reducing carbon. Yah, my unnecessary shitty commute is really not contributing! They turn a blind eye to that yo.

sugar_in_your_tea,

We recently went from 2 days to 3 days, and I chalked it up to our new CEO (old one replaced for unrelated reasons). Granted, many departments were full remote, in violation of company policy.

I’m hopeful that we can get back down to 2 days in office. However, if the industry goes for 3 days as standard, the might not be realistic.

@azurefirefly@lemmy.basedcount.com avatar

Man I miss destiny but I can’t play it cause Bungie are paranoid blaming the wrong group (Linux users) as hackers so blocked us from using it, and even if I could I wouldn’t play it out of principle because of what they’ve done to it. It still has the best shooting out of any game I’ve played, but the stuff you shoot at isn’t interesting anymore

azurefirefly, (edited )
@azurefirefly@lemmy.basedcount.com avatar

Looked at the store, man how much do you have to spend to get the content? $100 for light fall and the battle pass, then $30 for Gjallahorn, then another $30 for some other dungeon and new supers and then $100 more for the new expansion. That’s $260, it’s cheaper to pay for Final Fantasy XIV monthly and get a $60 expansion for a year. That’s not including all the past dlc either

llii, w Sony Introduces PS5 Deep Earth Collection

Im pretty disappointed with the colors. They’re the same that we already had, only in metallic. There where such great PS4 controller designs and colors, but these don’t interest me one bit.

Damn, their writing isn’t very good, but now, their post release support for their own game is easily becoming better than what HBS did!

What better way to manage head counts down?

ISOmorph,

That’s the devious part. It’s just mass layoffs without the severance packages.

conciselyverbose,

It still counts as firing you most places. Materially changing the work environment and obligations is constructive dismissal

Unforeseen,

Especially in Canada, and particularly in Quebec

Astroturfed, w Destiny 2 has one of the worst bugs in its history that’s melting bosses and PvP players

I’m amazed the amount of players those game still has. I bought it felt robbed and quit soon after release. Bungie is a shell of a what it once was.

DeriHunter,

I think you and I played different games… Destiny is a great game! One of the best looter shooter ever made. The gameplay and lore is freaking great. The only issue to me is that there are 2 much content and the amount of time you need to dedicate for this game is huge.but when I was younger and responsibilities free I had a blast

Astroturfed,

Maybe now. They released a game with barely any content and sold the content to you.

Ansis,

Yeah, lotsa downvotes but D2 is great. The issue is the amount of paid content - every tiny little new mission, gun or area is a new expansion or season pass. I get that they need to feed the people creating the new stuff but it’s still like >$100 a year for you to play all the newest content when it comes out.

I usually skip the seasons because they’re basically the same mission on repeat with a little cutscene at the start and end. If you’re patient, you can get the DLCs for 1/3rd of the price and still have lots of fun with it. I even get cool cosmetics (in-game currency) and play endgame content with my clanmates so it’s definitely not pay2win.

all-knight-party,
@all-knight-party@kbin.cafe avatar

I quit it because of sunsetting content. I love to know what I have in a game and that if I wanna stop and play other things for a few months or something that I can return and still play through that content.

As soon as they sunset entire planets and disallowed you from being able to play the campaign on your own time, relegating the entire thing to randomized heroic missions on a daily rotation, I just couldn't do it anymore and left. It's absolutely the worst FOMO implementation I've ever seen in a game and it fucking disgusts me.

I couldn't believe what a breath of fresh air it was to play through Borderlands 3 this year and just be able to know what the whole game was, what all the content was, and that I could play that content any time I wanted, forever, without any chance that it would simply disappear on me, after I'd already paid for it.

Astronautical,

Those things were all taken out of the game like 2 1/2 years ago though

all-knight-party,
@all-knight-party@kbin.cafe avatar

That would be when I quit, yes.

Astronautical,

I meant that those systems were removed. Sunsetting is not in the game anymore, and planets have been slowly trickling back in with seasonal content and whatnot.

all-knight-party,
@all-knight-party@kbin.cafe avatar

That seems a little better, but seasonal content must be paid for, right? Does that mean the content I paid for that's sunsetted id have to pay for again seasonally? And what about the campaign?

Astronautical,

Seasonal content is $12 a season, sadly (really dumb too since Silver only can be bought in $10 or $15 packs) but campaigns and their respective content stays in the game. They also have overhauled practically every game mode aside from Gambit, and occasionally have free weekends for DLC. Overall, it’s better in some ways and worse in others.

SolOrion,

It has great bones. The game is incredibly smooth, and the gunplay is fantastic. Their monetization is absolute trash, though. I absolutely despise their seasonal system, and they keep vaulting shit I’ve paid for.

Plus they keep changing the fucking minimum light! Twice since release, I think, they’ve basically reset me so that I’m functionally a brand new player with some neat level 1 exotics I now have to farm shit to keep fusing to level up.

Pxtl, w Valve employee reveals “stupid expensive” scrapped VR console plans
@Pxtl@lemmy.ca avatar

Imho apple has it right for high-end vr: no wires because wearable computer.

HidingCat,

Only if latency is really really low. VR is one of those things that's really sensitive to even the slightest bit of lag.

I don't mind cables if it's a single USB-C cable.

Pxtl,
@Pxtl@lemmy.ca avatar

I mean a wireless wearable computer would have network lag but the important lag – between the rendering GPU and the screen – would be nil.

I mean streaming the video data to the headset Miracast-style would be dumb, I agree, but afaik all the rendering hardware in the new Apple headset is inside the headset.

The new Steam Deck and its copycats have proven that a compact gaming-grade PC is doable. If not fully contained in the headset, then make a little fannypack with a cable up to vr headset, but you can walk around untethered otherwise.

HidingCat,

Ah right, I see what you mean. I was thinking of gaming that requires a separate computer, but like you said, there can be other ways to do that.
