    Sorry fella, currently banned from Reddit in 1 day, and currently I’m also experimenting with marketing and blogging, so pardon me. Give me some feedback, I will greatly appreciate it

    OMG OMG OMG!!! The peasants will expect quality now! We’re doomed! Doomed!

    Not only quality, but they’ll also expect a released game to be finished at launch!

    Poiar,

    In my area of business, 'being finished" is a part of “quality”.

    I.e., something that’s unfinished, cannot be said to have high quality

    ... proceeds with another yearly installment of game X that could have been released as DLC, but instead built it as "a new game", selling at 1 cent per bug.

    Lol dude absolutely tore apart Diablo at the end there.

    ono, w Baldur’s Gate 3 is Causing Some Developers to Panic

    I have no doubt that the game is outstanding, but after seeing headlines like this all week, it really smells like an advertising campaign.

    Chozo,

    It might be, but what would that change about the story? Unless Larian is paying other studios to say that they're panicking (which I doubt, for a million reasons), then I'm not so sure there's any difference to the situation.

    luthis,

    Not advertising. These are the Steam reviews. It’s organic hype. It’s just wierd because we have had such a shit time with AAA games for years.

    ono,

    Not advertising. These are the Steam reviews.

    Those two things are not mutually exclusive, but I hope you’re right.

    bionicjoey,

    It is actually that good. First game to fully recapture the magic of Dragon Age Origins

    Sites like IGN must follow gaming trends to survive. BG3 is a huge release and I've been seeing this story everywhere for weeks, increasing in frequency.

    luthis, w Baldur’s Gate 3 is Causing Some Developers to Panic

    I might just buy this at full price even though I don’t have any intention of playing it any time soon, just to show support for a game studio that is still doing it right.

    ....even though he left Russia some time ago. A Moscow court tried him anyway and found him guilty...

    How do you try someone not in the court? Lmao, such a shithole country.

    lh,

    I mean trials in absentia are super common, including in Western democracies. If you're confident you can prosecute but unable to detain the defendant, then you can still try them without them being physically present.

    Is there something I can read instead of giving some jackass a view on Youtube?

    Goronmon,

    To summarize the actual tweets/comments/etc that these videos (there are multiple) are panicking about.

    1. Smaller studios aren't going to be able to replicate the scale and complexity of BG3. So people shouldn't be using BG3 as the bar to compare future titles/RPGs from other studios going forward. Larian is comparable in size (or even larger) to Bethesda when they released Skyrim, and no one has been able to compete directly with Skyrim either.
    2. Not all games and RPGs need to be as complex and long as BG3. Expecting open-ended, 100 hour-long RPGs for every future game/RPG isn't realistic. Not all games require that scope, it's rare to get such a budget for this type of game, and even if you did, most companies won't be able to replicate the game in a meaningful way. Just like how companies other than Rockstar would struggle to replicate the scale of games like GTA and RDR.

    There, I've summarized multiple 20 min videos. Just without all the hand-waving and drama.

    So, I see you definitely didn’t actually watch the video.

    Goronmon,

    I did, did you?

    stopthatgirl7,
    !deleted7120 avatar

    Considering I’m the one who posted it, yes.

    Goronmon,

    You would be far from the only person who has posted a link to an article/video they have never read/watched.

    jeebus,
    @jeebus@kbin.social avatar

    It was a pretty good video with a good message. All the more surprising is that it was from IGN.

    lowdownfool,
    @lowdownfool@kbin.social avatar

    I prefer not to sit through a 10 minute video for something that requires less than a minute reading time.

    bleuy007, w Starfield Is the Biggest Game for Xbox Since Halo 5 - IGN

    What are all of your general expectations for Starfield? I feel like in my corner of the internet, people are generally being very skeptical and pessimistic. I think this is fair, based on the last few years of Bethesda.

    conciselyverbose,

    I didn't love fallout, but mostly because of the dinky crafted weapons and their handling and the fact that you almost had to use VATS to make it work. They're damn good at making giant worlds worth exploring, and the gunplay looks a lot more fluid than fallout. I like the premise of highly customizable shipbuilding a lot more than fallout's settlements, too. It's far from guaranteed to be great, but "sci-fi Skyrim with enough engine improvements for guns to feel OK" is extremely promising to me. There's a reason Skyrim is still selling copies a decade later when the mechanics are super limited by age, and if they're able to bring the same world building to space exploration I'm all for it.

    technologicalcaveman,

    I'm not going to get it. I just don't like the bethesda style for their recent stuff. I didn't like fallout 4 at all. My favorite bethesda game is tied between daggerfall and morrowind.

    Kind of a low bar…

    csolisr, w Overwatch 2's Steam debut is big, but those user reviews are rough

    I’m not touching that game until they go and take the cowboy out of the game. We’re not fools Blizzard, that rename was just a cheap way to put things under the rug and we know already who’s that guy based on

    ampersandrew,
    @ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

    But like...the real guy isn't a cowboy. They renamed him. You'd remove an entire character from the game? Renaming him seems like the appropriate response.

    harmonea,
    @harmonea@kbin.social avatar

    I agree removing the character entirely seems too far. The characters are designed differently enough that you would be leaving a reasonable number of people without their favorite playstyle entirely without a suitable replacement.

    I get people not being able to look past the history, but I'm not sure there's any more reasonable course of action that can be taken. The name was the homage, not the kit, art, or lines. And now that name is gone.

    I think those who are still upset about it would have to accept they fall under "Don't like? Don't engage" rather than calling for further action.

    AlbertScoot,

    I was more angry that they changed the name at all, it's just an attempt to pretend they never did anything wrong.

    csolisr, w Keith David Is Zavala's New VA Following Lance Reddick's Death - Insider Gaming

    Wondering if they’ll re-record the late Reddick’s lines to have the voice sound uniform throughout the campaign, like what happened with the Ghost back in the day.

    It said in the article that they won’t.
