henfredemars,

My heart goes out to the workers trying to make the best of really terrible administrative decisions on the part of their leadership.

The business has lost trust in their brand.

henfredemars,

Original ASCII Dwarf Fortress

With that said I still prefer it to TMNT.

henfredemars,

That shame and disappointment you feel? That’s fun. This is the fun. This is what you want.

henfredemars,

It will be double dead with the shift toward digital games over physical copies.

henfredemars,

No, it’s not coming back like the title indicates. This is by zero of the original people and none of the original code. It’s a clone, of which there are many better ones, as the article content explains.

This is a scam abusing a legal loophole (sniping the trademark) to sound official.

What games would you recommend others to just play on easy difficulty angielski

I am making my way through Yakuza series right now and while playing 5 I realized that I am not that invested into the game’s combat, so I turned it to easy and that just streamlined the combat so much for me. I would recommend to maybe try Yakuza 0 on normal at first and then just switch it to easy if you feel like the...

henfredemars,

Shoutout to Twinge’s Balance Mod. It’s actively maintained, and it makes the game more interesting by encouraging use of unpopular weapons and systems

Captain’s is great too, but it can be overwhelming.

henfredemars,

That’s what happens when MBAs start making too many product decisions at a tech company, and game companies are no exception.

henfredemars,

“Not a team player” “Culture mismatch”

henfredemars,

I can only enjoy this game on easy, and I have 200 hours in the game.

henfredemars,

I’m starting TF2. I’m a little intimidated however because so many gaming veterans play that game.

henfredemars,

Warms my heart.

henfredemars,

Such a great game. I love the dodging mechanic.

henfredemars,

Escapism is an appropriate coping strategy for situations where you do not have influence over the outcome.

Where is the harm? Why care so much about things we cannot change?

Naturally, things get hairy when you have some influence but that influence is very small or difficult to measure.

henfredemars,

In the interest of preserving realism of the gameplay experience, gamers should not be punished.

henfredemars,

I understand the frustration, but I can’t help but feel that their anger is misdirected. Do we really think video games are promoting violence?

[…] playing the game led the teenager to research and then later purchase the gun hours after his 18th birthday.

I’m getting a sense that there are other steps that could have been taken to prevent this tragedy aside from this video game that features guns.

henfredemars,

Accountable for what actions exactly? Depicting a photorealistic gun in a video game?

Note: not the downvote. Just want to understand.

henfredemars,

I’m not sure I understand. When was the last time a video game was used to go on a killing spree?

The same argument can be used in one context and be wrong, yet used in another context and be right.

The object in the argument matters. For example, the argument that punishment reduces undesirable behavior. This could be true in criminal justice, but it’s absolutely not true when applied to early child development. It just teaches them to be scared of you if the child isn’t old enough to understand.

There might be an association between guns and violence. Is that even true for video games?

henfredemars,

I remember reading about that. All I could conclude is that the voters must approve in some sense of those actions. In which case, I’m afraid your peers have spoken and clearly indicate that it’s not a priority. It’s a shame.

henfredemars,

Certainly. Hence, steps. Although, video games is probably not where I would begin if we wish to take this problem seriously. It should be part of a complete plan to address violence involving guns.

henfredemars,

Those arguments were weak then and they are no better now after years of research trying to test whether video games cause violent behavior. I don’t think there’s a need to revisit the same argument — unless of course new information or context that changes things has been found.

henfredemars,

I really hope Steam doesn’t consider this “review bombing” and take down such reviews. The response is entirely justified.

henfredemars,

Apple warns that developers are “responsible for all such software offered in your app, including ensuring that such software complies with these Guidelines and all applicable laws.” This raises the question of whether anyone can release a game emulator or only the companies that own the rights to the games distributed for it.

A good move, and great for distribution, but this does look like it’s difficult to publish an emulator unless you could control the games too. I don’t see this clearly permitting a general purpose emulator. It’s possible, but knowing Apple, I would expect that this could let Nintendo publish an emulator but not necessarily an open source project.

I’m glad to see it, but this to me feels more like testing the water then jumping into the deep end.

henfredemars,

A lot of those executives own real estate and need to keep those numbers up. I wonder how long before we pay people to sit in offices just so they can inflate their value.

Wait a minute…

henfredemars,

My wife is a big Harry Potter fan but has mixed feelings about it. She described the game this morning as not great but not bad either, with great graphics, but also with an indecisiveness to it that suggests too many cooks in the kitchen.

With that said, that’s just one opinion. The game seems outstandingly popular. She felt it’s worth the money if you can get it on sale in her personal opinion.

henfredemars,

I’m only one data point but nearly all my gaming hours are indie.

henfredemars,

Is this the cuckoo’s egg strategy? Require the user to install your games and consume so much disk space that they have to choose between playing your game and somebody else’s?

henfredemars,

Is this true? Could I not do OpenGL on a Mac?

henfredemars,

Is it not still maintained and the simplest graphics API available of the big three?

I learned that OpenGL is no longer maintained on Mac. I understand it’s on a might work but no guarantee status and no help if it breaks.

henfredemars,

We did it Patrick! We saved the town.

henfredemars,

This is such a better use of their time and dollars versus improving their service to make it more attractive to customers.

If this is the change that really sets them financially straight, then I would say they have a failing business model.
