ampersandrew, do games w Metaphor: ReFantazio's success is further proof that politics are good in videogames, actually—no matter what reactionaries tell you
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

If you want to talk about an honest discussion, consider the sample set you plugged into your search. You didn’t go through two years of articles on VGC or GameSpot. You plugged indiscriminate search criteria into an AI. We just had a discussion a few days ago about how mainstream media is not covering major gaming news, but if you’re reading gaming news outlets, it’s been layoffs for the past two years dominating the news. Gaming news outlets would have very little reason to ever use the word “hunger”, for instance, and “transgender” would apply to far more articles than those about fictional characters.

There were more articles covering game character sexuality than the mass lay offs of the last two years that left entire families without sustenance.

No, there absolutely weren’t.

Schreier’s politics come out in his writing as well as social media. The drum he’s been beating for a long time has been about labor and unionizing.

Not just in games, but often times the point of the story’s fake politics is to be a parable for real politics. But that’s also the fun of it, even if you disagree with the story’s intended message.

It’s extremely rare for a delisted game to be removed from your library, and they only do it in cases where, for instance, the game would literally be unplayable because the server isn’t there anymore. Often times they won’t remove the game from your library in that situation either. Having the game in your library is, in fact, enough.

Anyone who wants to know more about what people are responding to in the industry.

But they don’t have any false expectations of making hundreds of millions of dollars, betting everything they have that it will.

They voted for a handful of them, and then violently voted against the next thousand.

@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

Death Stranding is one of my favorite examples of how many ideas are out there to make games out of without resorting to making a game loop revolve around violence.

I don’t think this game is AAA or that they sunk much money into it. From what I can tell, they just fell $100M short of very optimistic revenue projections based on high initial player numbers.

That’s definitively untrue, and why would Nintendo take that deal anyway?

This is a fighting game without offline multiplayer. Brilliant decision.

I’d love to, but I’m not buying anything from Meta. They’re exclusive-ing this market to death.

ampersandrew, do games w Nintendo has lowered its Switch forecast after sales fell 31%
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

The Switch starts at a lower price point, it’s available at Walmart, it’s more durable for the average child to handle, and Mario/Pokemon/Zelda are what someone like Warren Buffet might call a “brand moat”, where nothing’s really going to interfere with that business model.

And the multiplayer was surprisingly good. I heard that some enterprising modders managed to revive it, and I’d love to play it again someday.
