Wow, stars really are just like us.

I’ve heard people say they won’t make HL3 until the next big leap in gaming is here.

1 was with us into “true 3D” era

2 was with us into physics engines

Alyx was with us into VR gaming.

3 will be with us …?*

I’m excited to find where we’re going. Gaming has been pretty stale for a long time. Sure we’ve had plenty of games that have got very clever with what we have, but we haven’t had a major leap in a long time, they’ve just been getting a bit more polish and shine each year. Short of deep-dive VR I honestly don’t know what could be next.

*Possibly actual AI? A world filled with characters that are actually intelligently responsive rather than just following a set of predefined behaviour patterns? Vortigaunt teammate that learns from you? Thinking about where we’re at technologically I have been wondering how long until AI is ready for implementation in games. Maybe this is it?

Minecraft, slay the spire, civilisation, atomicrops.

Balatro could have been a contender but I lost interest suddenly and unexpectedly.

I’ve installed Myst around 10 times and I haven’t gotten anywhere with it. I refuse to look at solutions because its a legendary puzzle game and I will not be beaten by it, but also I’m not at all sure what to do at all. I have never solved a single puzzle. I’m never even sure what’s interactive or not, or if I’m even looking at a puzzle or just seeing clues where there are none.

I should try it again soon…

I’m with you there. Except for the “might check it out”.

I definitely 100% no questions asked will be all over it. If it’s real. Which it isn’t.

I’m watching absolutely zero spoilers for it. It’ll still be there when I can get the gear together.

I’ve only played 3 games of it, but they’ve all been close so far. I suspect the window for fun has already passed.

Overwatch is fun every time there’s a new completely game-changing shift. At its core it’s an incredibly fun game, it’s only because its so competitive that it loses all the joy. As soon as a new iteration is “solved” it stops being fun.

I’ll still want it, I’ll feel a strong sense of FOMO if I don’t, but I don’t really care any more. After seeing how much money GTAO was making I strongly suspect they’ll put a lot more focus on that. In my opinion gta online sucked a lot of ass. It was fun as a playground to hang around with friends in, but as an actual game I’d rather we’d have agreed on any other game to play. I would never load it up to play by myself.

I hope I’m wrong and the story mode slaps, but at the super-premium price it’s going to end up costing i won’t justify it.

Steam doesn’t need to. It’s got the steam sale and a hundred million people to share memes of “sale so good spent all my money no time to play all the games I bought in such massive sale”

I wouldn’t say games. I’d say carefully calculated reward dopamine triggers with tendrils snaking directly to the entirety of my liquid assets disguised as games.

The upbeat music that plays once you hit out with some evidence that puts you on the attack. I’ve never felt so emotionally hyped and invested from a text-reading game.

I’m disappointed with it, but that’s my problem. I can’t put my finger on why, I think my expectations have changed. Somehow I was expecting it to blow me away like the first time I played it and obviously it just can’t do that.

Still gonna sink a fair few hours into it though.

Gonna go ahead and show my ignorance here, but why is this such a bad thing?

I’m pretty out of the loop on that sort of thing, but the games come with inbuilt game editors to make your own mods really easily right?

Are Japan that far in the future that they’re using CD the same way we use vinyl?

I’m with you there. It’s going to be cool and I really want it, but I’ve already completed it a bunch. I’m never going to be able to get properly excited like I would for ES6

They’re right on the money. We’re getting double the oblivion!
