TwilightVulpine, w Starfield leaker arrested for felony theft after attempting to sell early copies

Dumb shit to do but a felony? That's just excessive. This is no violent crime, and it's not a large scale one either.

Once again the law seems to care more to serve corporate interest than what is just.

Corporate interests pay politicians and judges who make and pass laws. This guy stole a game and gets a felony, but did anything happen to those who cause financial crisis or housing crisis? They usually get bonuses

tokyo,

I was thinking the exact same thing. That is wild. It really shows you how much power corpos have. They literally destroy the environment in so many different ways and get told: pay these fees and you’re good. Business continues as usual.

But this dude? God forbid he leaked and sold a corporate product. Nothing less than a felony is clearly warranted.

The appearance will not save X. People are leaving the free-for-all cesspool as a result

Ertebolle,

I get more engagement on Mastodon with 1/10th of the followers, and that's supposedly the least popular alternative compared to Bluesky/Threads.

Because people on mastodon don't feel "captive" to the corporate social media feed and are free to engage however they want.

They blame the people for how hostile their platforms are, but all the while feed us only content that makes us angry or upset -- so yeah, it's not a surprise that the platform is a cesspool when they're the ones stirring the shit in the first place to keep engagement high.

ImplyingImplications,

Facebook and TikTok are salivating at a chance to become the next Twitter. Both have rushed out Twitter like updates since Musk has been making terrible changes.

technologicalcaveman,

I really wish he chose anything but X, cause when I hear X I think of Xorg. And I like Xorg, it's like one of my favorite things. Why'd he have to ruin X?

It was all a ruse to make you use Wayland.

technologicalcaveman,

I'm alright with that, my childhood dog is named Waylon and we often call him wayland, among other names. He's still going at 13, I just moved away. Thanks for making me think of my dog.

This is why Counter-Strike is better: Elon Musk has yet to show up.

CarlsIII, w Double Dragon Collection ‘Game Overview’ trailer

Kinda disappointing since the NES games were included in the Kunio collection, and there are still no arcade versions included. I’d basically only be getting this for Super DD and DD Advance (DDIV is that shitty recent game that was only $4 if I recall). Would have been nice if they included other versions too like the Master System and others.

I honestly don’t get what they’re thinking. They make phones. They making gaming equipment. Why don’t they integrate those together like they did with the Xperia Play? I don’t necessarily mean taking another kick at that can (but yes, they should take another kick at that can) but why not work with what they’re good at? Like they work with Backbone to make a Playstation branded version of it – but it runs on iPhones only!

It seems so obvious - make an Xperia/PSP branded gaming-grade phone, offer a first-party Backbone-like controller, sell a Playstation Portal screen-and-wifi-only device that also docks into that Backbone-like controller, etc. The only real problem is Google’s monopolistic rules against letting hardware companies offer alternate stores on PlayStore-based devices, or they could have a Playstation Android Store focused on gamepad-based games that are specifically targeting their gaming Android devices.

Bring back PSP as an Sony+Android gaming brand.

Kaldo, w SkillUp: Right now, Austin cannot recommend: Wayfinder (Early Access Review)
@Kaldo@kbin.social avatar

This truly seems like a cursed genre - I was really hoping to get some alternative warframe-adjacent game to play during content droughts but it seems it's not meant to be. Looks like another mmo-lite looter shooter that seems to have missed its mark, both in terms of gameplay, grind and monetization.

It is still in early access (that you have to pay to access) but it's supposed to be released and f2p within a year so we'll see what happens then.

sandriver,

I think Austin’s review actually missed the amount of mechanical depth that exists in the game already. One of his complaints was that there’s seemingly no reason to put melee on “ranged” characters or vice-versa, but I can say that’s definitely wrong. I’ve primarily been playing Venomess with a Sword and Shield, since it pushes her to near-guaranteed critical hits. One of the SnS options has a potion interaction that lets it oneshot enemy guard meters, which puts them in a state of vulnerability and stunlocks them until they recover. I will say Gungrave is a bit lacking since his skills have extremely low multipliers, so his ability to clear dungeons with a gun is extremely lacking until you get the railgun with infinite body and terrain punchthrough.

On a related note, I wouldn’t say the itemisation is lacking either. They’re taking the modern Warframe approach of every weapon doing something cool. There are basic store-bought weapons, but all of the crafted weapons do something interesting that changes your playstyle. One pair of daggers is unusually good at breaking guard meters, and also places a unique buff on you that boosts all damage, including ability damage, which is totally unique to that weapon and that weapon alone. Another pair poison enemies, which lets one of the two “ranged” Wayfinders (Silo in this case) keep a damage vulnerability debuff rolling on the enemy.

Also disagree with the comment about buildcraft being lacking. Different weapons and weapon types interact with the heroes in different ways, so there’s quite a good loop of doing some theorycraft to find your optimal stat ratios for particular combinations, and what your playstyle is. Two weeks in, and the Venomess community on the official Discord are still debating whether to focus on weapon attacks or abilities, which weapons to use, how to balance crit vs base damage, etc.

Also being a huge Warframe fan, this is scratching that JRPG fiend itch for games with weird synergies and interactions and a really rich character building space to experiment in. Haven’t had this much fun since the first six weeks of the Incarnon launch.

Karak,

That is a great argument for knock-off movies and shitty licensed games because they're cheap. You'd have to be living a pretty comfortable life to cluelessly buy a console.

FlyLikeAMouse, w I'm showcasing new skills for the roguelike game I'm working on

Looks interesting! Just as a helpful tip, the plural of lightning is still “lightning”; the “s” isn’t required.

Thank you, that certainly helps!

nevernevermore, w PlayStation Portal Doesn’t Have Bluetooth

I actually likely would have bought this if it had bluetooth. remote play on my laptop is cumbersome if im sitting on the couch, but if I can't use my airpods then I'm out. i've got some sennheisers I could use with the 3.5mm jack but over ear headphones get uncomfortable quickly to me.

money_loo, w PlayStation Portal Doesn’t Have Bluetooth

Well Bluetooth would likely add a bit more latency, so that makes sense when you think about it.

At least it has a headphone jack.

They’ve intentionally left out everything that could expand the potential user base for this. It’s like Sony wants it to be as niche as possible.

Now you’re thinking with portals!

luthis, w PlayStation Portal Doesn’t Have Bluetooth

Mutahar really ripped into this one.

It’s a wierd play by Sony for sure.
