Well, Warframes are killer space ninjas. A number of missions they do does indeed involve the gathering of intelligence, such as Spy, mobile defence, or Capture missions.
This can be considered normal, as the usual role for a ninja is intelligence gathering, with such things as assassination and murder usually being rare objectives. However, since Warframes are from the distant future, and have some pretty insane powers, it’s easy to assume the role of ninja has expanded somewhat.
Such as into fashion… Or looking practically naked.
It’s not the account that’s banned. It’s the device that’s banned. You can factory reset the Switch 2, completely wiping all data, and it will remain banned. This means that none of the games you’ve purchased legally will function, as cartridges no longer contain games and Nintendo’s services are required to play them.
Looking at the listings on Target and GameStop, I’ve noticed that many publishers decided to use the game-key card format. This is allegedly because Nintendo is only offering third-party developers the 64GB cartridge or the game-key card—there is no smaller, standard physical cart. This would explain why nearly every major (and minor) AAA release is on a game-key card, since publishers don’t want to pay extra for the more expensive storage space.
Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD, Hitman: World of Assassination, Hogwarts Legacy, Madden NFL 26, Raidou Remastered, Sonic X Shadow Generations, Split Fiction, Star Wars Outlaws, Street Fighter 6 Year 1-2 Fighters Edition, and Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut will all require an internet connection to download before playing. Civilization VII will actually just be a code in a box. I can image there will be more (of both) in the future; the Switch 2 only just launched.”
How do you play any new game? You need an internet connection to download games as the majority wont be true physical games anymore (the cartridge is a “key-card”).
Your console is banned from connecting to Nintendo’s services (apparently not for the console updating service, as users from gbatemp.net have figured out), so you won’t be able to play the majority of the Switch 2’s library, even when purchasing a game legally.
Yes, but that’s not the same as merely putting the console into airplane mode. And it’ll be 2 to 3 years before CFWs, homebrew, and piracy will be viable on the Switch 2 (based on the time it required to do the same on the Switch 1, and 3DS).
According to those on GBATemp.net, the update server and the eshop server are both different. Your console being banned means it’s banned from all the shop services, but console updates still happen.
I think console updates are semi-forced, so you’ll still have to keep the Switch 2 offline and/or keep denying update prompts like usual, even if it’s banned.
Played Conan Exiles. It’s my favourite survival game put of all the ones I’ve tried. Might give this one a shot, but I’ll have to see some gameplay and reviews first.
You can pick any artistic style you want. There literally aren’t any real hardware imitations to graphics anymore. And yet it’s always realistic graphics for AAA games, and pixel graphics for indie games (with a few rare ones in between that do it different).
You’re… Not exactly disproving what I said or making a real case why it’s beneficial. On the contrary, you’ve only reinforced exactly what I’m talking about:
For quite a period, and still today, the indie scene is dominated by pixel art, because those people grew up with games that looked that way, and are still stuck there. But now the people who grew up with the PS1 are also capable of completing game projects, and they themselves are stuck in their past.
I used to go to Lightbrick Studio here in Copenhagen to alpha-test the various features and mechanics they were developing for this game. That was a few years ago by now, where the environments looked a lot more bland (it was literally just a raw test of the puzzle mechanics).
Nice to recognise all the things I tested in the trailer.
Not sure if I’ll play this (maybe if I get it through Humble Monthly at some point), but I’m glad this exists. Nice to see studios trying different things.
This trailer is entirely cinematic. I don’t know what to expect from the game, what kind of RTS it will be (does it feature base building? Is it more tactical or grand scale? Is it MOBA-like with hero units being the main feature? Is it war-game-like?). This trailer literally tells me nothing.
Oh for fuck sake, this has never been a good argument, and people who keep repeating these argument-questions (almost like they’re a copy paste) either never read what Stop Killing Games demands, or lack the reading comprehension necessary to understand it.
The third option would be malicious sabotage, but I’m hoping it’s just one of the two stupidity options.
We see it most prevalently in games because the gaming industry is massive. But this can also happen to your car… Or your fridge…
Here’s a fun story:
There were these few blind people who volunteered to have cybernetic implants that would help them (partially) see. The company went under, the patent is held by a patent troll, but the people still have those implants in their head… Which have now either shut down or are malfunctioning…
Yes… Because all those games where you play as some American grunt fighting in the middle East is something totally different and not comparable at all.
I get that Steam is where everything and everyone is at. And that the user experience and functionality is best there BUT having another player to try an compete with Steam is a good thing, right?...
X4 is more game than Star Citizen. Elite Dangerous is more game than Star Citizen. Both these games are still getting updates that expand and build upon their mechanics. But the time Star Citizen becomes 1.0, these other games will have already surpassed it.
Hell, graphically Star Citizen used to be cutting edge… Like nearly 10 years ago. Now it just looks kinda “normal”.
Sure but… I’m subscribed to Humble Monthly. So instead of getting a CD with a magazine containing a bunch of demos, I get a bunch of keys for full games. A lot of them pretty neat indies.
One more time!
