not always true, they clearly bought zenimax to make exclusive xbox games.

acosmichippo, wczoraj (edited wczoraj)

i figured it was going to be a transition over time for less shocking optics.

anyway, the main point is microsoft wants them to make games, exclusive or not. buying them didn’t eliminate any competition.

does charging not work on switch 2, or just A/V?

no no we can’t risk the future of the company on AI.

been using Big Picture for years. it’s a better experience than the ad-riddled UIs of the xbox and playstation.

i don’t think it’s a spoiler to say this because you learn very early in the game - physically everything in the worlds goes back to square one after 22 minutes (or if you die).

you do get to keep a log of everything you learn about the worlds and story but that’s all that persists. the log is actually helpful, so follow that if you get lost.

slight spoiler:

Tap for spoileralso the 22 minute reset is not an arbitrary design choice, it’s part of the story and puzzle.

same. the trick is to float by doing literally nothing as slow as possible. it takes some trial and error to figure out when you can maneuver again but you do have to be a little patient.

No mention of who it is even being sold to, so bizarre.

the principle applies to literally all games anyway, but the youtuber almost certainly did that to get clicks.

i think you are misunderstanding the point of the no preorder movement. There never should have been an expectation for it to improve the Day 1 quality of game releases.

The main benefit of not preordering is consumer protection, so we can judge a game’s quality after people who we trust have played and review it. That protection is worth more than whatever paltry nonsense publishers bundle with preorders.

do you really need all new voice recordings for a remake? unless they were horrible quality i don’t see the point.

other location could be the moon, i think they intended for that to be DLC in 2077.

NO direct relationship? maybe it’s not 1:1 but surely there is some kind of direct relationship.

acosmichippo, miesiąc temu

definition of “direct.”

a direct relationship means the variables increase or decrease with each other, but not necessarily in the same proportion.

why are YOU arguing?

There’s probably some sort of positive relationship between the two, but we’d need mire information.

you can’t use straight 1:1 inflation to infer what the contemporary cost should be of digital products like video games, movies, tv shows, music etc. There is no physical asset to tie the individual product value to. There are of course production costs, but those are the same whether you make 50 copies or 50 million.

The reason inflation hasn’t hit video game prices is because the video game market has grown exponentially since the 90s. They make more money by selling low margin at higher volume, compared to high margin and low volume. It’s all about maximizing that total profit, not individual sales.

Publishers can try to charge more, but it’ll be up to consumers if that actually gets them any more money overall. only time will tell.

all of the guild questlines in oblivion are so fun, particularly the stealthy ones Dark Brotherhood and Thieves.

The Outer Worlds is a perfect example of this in the best way possible.

half assed remake

which is exactly why they called it a remaster. it was never their intention to remake the game.

Personally I think most of the stuff that went wrong with Starfield were design choices related to space travel and many many planets, which won’t be an issue with TES of Fallout going forward. So if they stay in their lane I don’t see any reason why they can’t keep churning out decent titles in those series, even if they maybe don’t reach the same heights.

i wouldn’t say discord “spoiled” us by trying to reinvent forums, i’d say it unnecessarily blurred the lines. classic case of feature creep.

i generally agree with the point you are making because Oblivion is my favorite TES game, but I just got done playing Avowed which is pretty good. defintiely not as deep as oblivion in many areas though.

i don’t think they changed the magic system but they did adjust enemy level scaling, which could have been part of your problem.

I’m skeptical that there’s a filter like this over the whole game. If you look at the all of the leaked screenshots together none of the others are anywhere close to this dreary to my eye. Although some of the other images have different issues like extreme darkness/low gamma which makes me think some of them were never intended for the public. They have also since been pulled from the site (supposedly this was the original location). Maybe it was a look they were testing at some point and then scrapped, who knows.
