There’s an investment you have to do, you can’t just make one line and expect people to take it, you’ll need to make sure you have good coverage, just like in a real city. A train line between each major area, and busses to connect multiple blocks within the smaller section, so people can easily go from anywhere to anywhere. Roads will become laden with traffic soon. Just like real life it takes an initial investment, and then becomes indispensable later.

I feel as though the combat is much cleaner in my book. Yes it’s based off a 20 year game, it’s not going to match the witcher in sword play, but it’s not annoying anymore to me.

Also played Oblivion years and years ago, and I can agree and think you put it best. “It turned out as well as it could have”. Because to anyone complaining here, any and all changes anyone here suggests the team obviously thought the same things, but there is obviously a balance. Change it too much and hardcore original fans are pissed. Don’t change it enough and new fans are pissed because it’s too old. No matter what people were going to be unhappy. Gamers are some of the most negative people I’ve met.

I see a decent remaster, I see gameplay and motions have been updated, I see a lot has been updated without changing the core game too much. It turned out as well as it could have.

Upvoted, I hope someone can help you here. But also a bit of condescending, it’s been solid as a rock for me on linux :D But, seriously hope you figure it out, it’s frustrating having a new game not work

Beyond selecting a proton version it was no more difficult to set up than any windows game. Deck hardware I’ve heard issues with, but I’m not surprised. The deck is essentially a mid level right from about 8 years ago. The remaster struggles on my 3090. I was finally able to get 60fps after tweaking graphical settings for a while, but none of that was because of Linux.

Let’s hope other studios get worried. We do have power if we all collectively work against a company.

I loved the first act. It was so much fun to be there and run around. Then I was so disappointed when the second area opened and I realized oh, so I just… Do the same thing again? Like exactly the same? By the end I was just bored

Don’t go back. Geralt’s relationship is… complicated. Personally I’m a Yennifer fan, mostly because of Geralt’s history with Triss. Triss knew that Geralt’s memory was gone a while back and took advantage of that, even though she knew that Geralt really was with Yennifer. So… I was always salty.

That being said, this is a game I recommend playing again someday. So just choose Triss next time. Enjoy Yenn, IMO they compliment each other well vs Triss who is just obsessed. Triss’ relationship isn’t as healthy

I don’t mind sitting at a desk, but some care tips.

• Stand up at least once an hour, even just to get coffee, go to the bathroom.
• Always have a (full) bottle of water with you. If it’s there, you’ll drink it, you won’t even notice it. Keep it in your eyeline
• Eyedrops. If you’re in an office job, you need eyedrops. If you game on top of that you need them more. I actually dried out my eyes from coding and gaming too much, it’s very easy to do. Talk to your eye doctor, get some artificial tears. Look away from the screen every 20 minutes or so and just blink.

It’s an interesting debate. One that I will not touch with ten foot pole because I do not have the knowledge to say which is right, but it’s interesting.

Is it better for people with these uh, interests, to have artificial content if it satisfies their needs? As in, for non consensual the vast majority of people would think it’s revolting, and that it should go. We want no part of it in society. But here’s the rub. What if the alternative is actually committing the crime? By offering an alternative that is morally questionable could it reduce the actual crime from happening?

Same thing with AI generated CSAM. utterly revolting. Think it should be purged. But, some psychologists argue that it would satisfy the desires of some of them, and it could reduce actual children from being harmed. Some say it could make the urge worse but some say it could prevent the real thing from happening

I don’t have the training or knowledge to say this or that, but it’s interesting

It’s because valve has always been transparent about it. They’ve also put in place a lot of protections for gamers, which is why I trust their store. Their stuff is also a license, but I have yet to see something pulled out of my inventory. Actually there was a game once, and it was a Ubisoft game now that I think of it. I believe that’s when they put in more protections.

Ubisoft wants to make everything cloud dependent and then want us to be happy that we can’t play our games anymore. They lost all of my trust. If it’s not a purchase, then it’s a rental in my eyes, and I’d never pay more than $20 for a rental.

scrubbles, 14 dni temu

Yeah, but it’s always been a license. I’ve never been unaware of that, it’s only now that publishers are starting to abuse that fact that they’re making it obvious. Again, I’ve never been burned by valve, so I trust them. Maybe that’ll change some day, but for now, that’s why they’re doing better.

Then they’re all shocked Pikachu that people are so determined to emulate them. You know what games aren’t being jailbroken en masse right now? Steam games. Because the store has been trustworthy since day one. They may break that trust but it hasn’t happened yet.

scrubbles, 18 dni temu

I think that’s my point, that they’ve built such a easy to use trustworthy store that everyone just buys it because what’s the point of stealing anything from them. Vs Nintendo when that’s the first thing people start working on.

God so many projects are completely dependent on it, and we have seen now while rare, there are cases where repos will be taken down. At least have one backup somewhere. I run my own forgejo and mirror a lot of them, but the owners should have a mirror somewhere

Agree, what a weird take that says more about this creator. If positive reviews make you angry, well that’s says a lot about you more than a game. Out of all the things to be angry about…

WHY?! WHY ARE THEY BEING SO STUPID WITH HOGWARTS?!

They built this whole world into the game and did NOTHING with it! It’s empty! Hogwarts the settings is perfect! The castle was fun to walk around in, to explore! I 100%'d the game because I loved exploring in it! Then they did nothing else to the game. I don’t even remember what the antagonist’s name was!

The game oversold all expectations! People just loved shelling out money for it! Then WB just dropped it.

I see things bitching every day about how their game studios don’t make enough money and then they shit the bed here by just letting that game sit here!

If they’re actually worried about money why are they not cranking out DLC every 4-6 months?! People would buy it! The world they built is begging to have more stories told, and people are holding out their wallets asking for more content for it - and they cancel it?!? They can’t bitch and moan that games don’t make money and then they just flip the off switch on their freaking money printer.

Thanks. That was cathartic.

Which is fine, but I have no idea why they’re just throwing everything they have in the trash. They built the whole world and just sat on it. Expansions could make them so much money to fund the next game in the short term

I’m glad I’m not the only one genuinely confused by this. Are they shorting their own company? What is going on?

I mean, a Gollum game?

Seriously they could have done sims level DLC and people could have just kept buying. New mounts, small new areas, bits of story here and there, a new class

I loved shadow of mordor/war, and always wondered why they didn’t make another. However I also guess better to go out early before it’s done to death

I’m usually pretty cautious on stuff like this, I’m in the minority that says the newest games don’t need to get 60fps 4k ultra on the newest GPUs, that it’s okay if you can get medium. Gives games room to future proof themselves.

But this is bad. A mid tier brand new GPU can’t play your game more than 720p 35fps? That’s laughably bad. I’ll wait to get some other reviews before I judge completely, but that’s just utterly unacceptable.

But they care so much about history there at Ubisoft

They’re years behind and they have a half baked idea. Of course they’re going to come out with one!

They also have piles of metrics saying it’s going to become the dominant in the market, that it’s way better than the competitors, and that the Xbox interface will be loved by all.

And then it’ll come out, be mediocre at best, and silently dropped in 3 years.

It’s Microsoft. I’ve seen this one before

RDR2 is one of the best story games ever. It’s one of probably 3 or 4 I would call masterpiece, and it legit made me cry. I connected with the characters, I felt the pain of the gang falling apart, I felt fear and pity for dutch, it was just amazing. RDR2 is one of those few games where you can say "sure, it has amazing gameplay, the side games are fun, and it plays great, but I don’t play it because it’s one of the most fun games to play, I play for the story "

Truly just the brute force solution. Need a shitload of compute? GPUs can do it! No one stops to think if we really need it. It’s all about coulda, not shoulda. Yeah, ML and AI has a place, but big tech just thinks “slap an LLM everywhere”. Just such horseshit

You’re going way off point of what I originally said, and I’m not having an argument here about rich vs poor or class systems. All I said was that a higher quality game earned a higher price than a lower quality game. Anything else you want to assume or believe is your own, but it’s separate from my statement.

That mission was one of the best in all of Halo. Where you really feel how dire and ruined everything is. Mixed with running around actual civilian places contrasted to the numerous forerunner built, bunkers, or nature locations or the other games and it really hits home.

(Outskirts and New Mom asa got close, but with the graphics of the time and mostly being outside it didn’t quite hit the same)
