MrScottyTay,

I don’t think they have the source code for rdr 1 and that’s why they’ve never ported it themselves.

Although there is the newer switch one so either they renamed it or found it in the end

MrScottyTay, (edited )

A con for GOG is their site is slow as fuck. And god forbid you want to go back to a previous page, you’ll likely lose where you were looking 9 times out of ten. Especially so on mobile.

Pros: Can be the only place you can get old games that would’ve been unavailable otherwise

The older games are often really really cheap, especially during sales

MrScottyTay,

Loot boxes were, if not invented by them, definitely popularised.

MrScottyTay,

It doesn’t really bother me since it’s still on pc anyway, it doesn’t matter massively where you get a game from (unless you specifically want drm free copies).

MrScottyTay,

Microsoft don’t pay for timed exclusivity. Instead they buy the companies and get exclusivity from them now being first party.

MrScottyTay,

You don’t need all store fronts running at once on your pc though. Just boot up what you need for the game you want and it’s just six and two threes, whether it’s steam or epic, or any other launcher.

MrScottyTay,

Where can you find what steam games are drm free?

MrScottyTay,

Sadly, it’s likely a lot of tracking. The kind that look where your mouse is and where you scroll and stop etc.

MrScottyTay,

The website, outside of the client is still slower than it used to be a good few years ago

MrScottyTay,

I’m sure it did start with tf2 and dota 2 has them too

MrScottyTay,

I always get 2FA’d on GoG for an emailed code

MrScottyTay,

Thanks!

MrScottyTay,

Not a clue sorry. I’m personally not one to go out of my way to set up 2FA even though I know it’s good practice to do so (unless it’s work related, then I do)

MrScottyTay,

I would love their to be more games like this. I just finished Nexus and just started rift apart and absolutely loving it. So annoyed we’re not getting another R&C game to 2029. I LOVE the Spiderman games but rift apart is leagues ahead of them.

MrScottyTay,

I just finished GoW Ragnarok Valhalla, really enjoyed the story and it feels like a nice place to leave it for a bit. Would like to see what else the modern Santa Monica can do

MrScottyTay,

I’m currently reolaying Fallout 3 since I last played it around release time on the 360. This time playing on PC. I plan to move on to New Vegas (which is my favourite) afterwards. What is JSUE and what does it do?

MrScottyTay,

But then still, most people wouldn’t pay over the standard full price of a game, no matter how big it is. So that’s actually less sustainable for a company

MrScottyTay,

How much is baldurs gate? It’s standard full price isn’t it?

God of War Creator Is Unhappy With New Games and Kratos' Story (comicbook.com) angielski

Despite being nominated for numerous awards and even winning Game of the Year in 2018, the creator of God of War, David Jaffe, is not a huge fan of the new direction the series has gone in. Jaffe himself hasn't worked on these new God of War games, but thinks that they're not staying true to the spirit of the character and the...

MrScottyTay, (edited )

I’ve always loved god of war. Chains of Olympus being my favourite one. And I still love the new ones both gameplay and story wise. I really like kratos as a character and I like the story of him finally having time to reflect on his actions in the original series and trying to better himself afterwards.

MrScottyTay,

Even people who bought it physically!?

MrScottyTay,

Source?

Good gaming experiences with no HUD? angielski

I’m starting to find that HUDs in games clutter the screen and take away from being fully immersed in the game. I like games that force you to pay attention to what’s going on in the game and not numbers/markers on the edges of the display. What are some of your favorite games to play with no HUD? Here are a few of mine:...

MrScottyTay,

Reboot, I wish they made a sequel instead

MrScottyTay,

I thought that must’ve just been a name of a show I hadn’t watched haha

MrScottyTay,

If it’s an anthology series following different people in different parts of the world dealing with different scenarios then I’m waaay more on board from that than what they showed us in the trailer.

MrScottyTay,

The vault costumes definitely looked cheap, more cosplay fan film than professional production in my opinion. And the cgi on the mechs was very uncanny valley

MrScottyTay,

Rings of power was alright once you accepted it’s just a completely different adaptation with no connection to the previous films. And is also not being true to the books to a T. It’s far enough away from the events that I love in that world that I can separate it enough and still enjoy it.

I still would’ve preferred a more page by page adaptation of the Hobbit onwards though, especially the hobbit since it’s my favourite LOTR book.

MrScottyTay,

You might want to re-read what I said cause I agree with a lot of that. Accepting it’s so different that I don’t even consider it a part of lord of the rings is what allowed me to enjoy my time watching it.

MrScottyTay,

Lines are a bit blurred at a certain point for 360 and PSP to when I wouldve no longer been a kid and more of a late teenager or whatever.

MrScottyTay,

Yeah I’m currently playing the DS at the moment after getting a DSi recently. Trying to play some that I didn’t know about as a kid like Hotel Dusk

MrScottyTay,

Which is more inspired by rather than a full on sequel from what I’ve heard.

MrScottyTay,

Half life 1 just got a new big update that makes it much better to play this day and age and fixed a bunch of bugs. Either way you could skip 1. As a kid I never played 1 and went straight into 2, then 2 episodes 1 and 2 with the orange box. I still haven’t finished 1 but with this new update I think I’ll go back to it some point soon now.

MrScottyTay,

Game pass for games on the cheap i imagine.

MrScottyTay,

Having to be online and with a good internet connection is not well suited for a handheld though, in my opinion.

MrScottyTay,

I like watching it. But i like to see the faves I played throughout the year get recognition and hear a little bit from the Devs when they receive the awards. Announcements are a bonus for me. Plus I prefer to watch things fully even if they had already passed rather than just looking up the winners (in the case of the game awards). It would be like being into a sport but just looking up the results the next morning instead. I prefer to watch the full game unknowing of the outcome, and I take that mentality with me with both award shows (that i care about) and even Nintendo directs and it’s counterparts (which admittedly the game awards is half of)

MrScottyTay,

So isn’t this like what stadia wanted to do with its integration with YouTube where you could watch someone’s letsplay and there’d be a button that could take you to where they were so you can experience it or see if you can do better?

How were they able to patent it if something like this was already described by another company years ago?

MrScottyTay,

There’s too many games in the world that I want to play and I like to change it up in terms of what kinds of games in playing, and often have different games on the go at the same time on different platforms to keep up with my adhd. I really appreciate short games that give me a full experience without overstaying it’s welcome. Very few games can keep me going 30+ hours in, they have to either be REALLY good, the most fun I’ve had in ages or a truly gripping storyline with fantastic pacing, especially if it’s an RPG expecting 100+ hours.

Some busywork in games is fine as long as it’s not overdone. the insomniac Spider-Man games come to mind with that. Traversal and combat are fun enough to carry those games through any lull it may have that it actually makes going around ticking stuff off the map genuinely fun for me. And usually I hate it when games just fill a map with icons of things for you to do. It helps that its world isn’t THAT big compared to the likes of farcry, at least relatively to how fast you can traverse it.

MrScottyTay,

I wonder if the technology they’re waiting for is a more powerful arm processor?

MrScottyTay,

Did your uncle at valve spill the beans?

MrScottyTay,

I think it’s well in valves wheelhouse after proton to do something similar and revolutionise x86 to ARM translation. But at the moment better chips still need to arrive for that too be good enough for a product to built around. Which is why it’s the first thing i think of when they say they need technology to advance more before they make a new steam deck.

MrScottyTay,

Microsoft and Apple have some form of x86 to Arm translation at the moment. Also I know it’s not something that’s really done now. I’m not arguing it can be done right this second cause valve are talking about that there’s something they want to do but can’t yet and need technology to get a bit better before they move on with their plan. I’m saying this feels like the most logical thing that they’re waiting for.

MrScottyTay,

Then maybe those chips that would help with that process is what they’re waiting for then.

MrScottyTay, (edited )

DmC - the reboot one. I could never fully get into the original series (i do like em), but this reboot really grabbed me. I loved the music and the atmosphere. I also liked the whole limbo aspect. I wish we got to see more of this version, the end got me excited to see what could come next. But then they went back with dmc 5 which was so critically acclaimed that they’ll likely never look back again, for better and for worse.

MrScottyTay,

I think people blow that sort of stuff out of proportion. She was meant to just be utter vile. Not every character has to be quoting Shakespeare or dante (of the inferno)

What did you think of Sea of Stars? angielski

I thought that it was overall good fun. The battle system is excellent and the music is great. The characters are cool and generally quite enjoyable. However, the standard ending of the game really annoyed me. It’s totally anti-climactic. I really don’t want to go back and do a bunch of side quests (collectathon in...

MrScottyTay,

I absolutely loved it. Looked forward to every session playing it. I wish it lasted a little bit longer before it forced you to collect everything to get a true ending which I haven’t done yet. And the fact you have to collect everything is a bit of a bummer. Didn’t really feel like going on a scavenger hunt. I enjoyed searching for that stuff while playing but didn’t really want to do it with that being the only thing available to do now.

MrScottyTay,

I wish there were more premium games didn’t have egregious ads or micro transactions and respected your time. I pretty much dismiss all free to play games on mobile.

Play Pass is a god send for playing mobile games if you care enough to do so. Not only do you just get a whole bunch of premium games, it also removes ads and microtransactions in a good chunk of free to play games as well (but that usually puts the game balance out of whack - but that also accentuates how shitty some of those games are, being designed fully around them)

MrScottyTay, (edited )

Find a hobby to do on the side that you can use, maybe something with progression so you have something to focus on and track progress to keep you wanting to do that and not just stick to playing games. Something like drawing, learning an instrument, maybe even exercise, whether it be standard gym stuff or something else like skating or bouldering. If you still want to stick around a computer for whatever reason, maybe learn to code? Having a creative outlet will help loads to keep you from games if you have troubles endlessly playing them because you start getting the creative itches that makes you want to get something done related to that hobby, instead of just procrastinating.

MrScottyTay,

KOTOR 2, Kingdom Hearts BBS, Halo 3 (mostly the memories of multiplayer though)

Also ask me this on a different day and I’m likely to give you a different response.
