mnemonicmonkeys,

I think they may be making a joke about how flimsy Nintendo’s patent case is, since the alleged patent was filed this past July

mnemonicmonkeys,

You clearly don’t understand the joke

mnemonicmonkeys,

We… Could have been the ones in pokeballs?

Just look at Palworld

Jokes aside, I recall hearing that humans are actually canonnically aliens and completely separate from Pokemon

California’s new law forces digital stores to admit you’re just licensing content, not buying it (www.theverge.com) angielski

If you don’t retain some kind of actual ownership, they will not be allowed to use terms like “buy” or “purchase” on the store page button. I hope there aren’t huge holes in this that allow bad actors to get around it, but I certainly loathe the fact that there’s no real way to buy a movie or TV show digitally. Not...

mnemonicmonkeys,

They should have swapped a couple of the conch rewards, so you get a flimsy hammer at 60 and the true ending at 48. Pushing your players into an extra 5 hours of searching just kills the game’s pacing

SteamOS could see a general distribution release, work with other handheld gaming PCs soon (www.techspot.com) angielski

One of the Steam Deck’s primary advantages over more powerful handheld gaming PCs is its operating system, which is designed to mimic a game console interface within a Linux PC environment. Valve has long planned to bring the OS to other devices, but a recent Steam Deck software update includes the first mention of a rival...

mnemonicmonkeys,

Unfortunately smart TV’s are just a step up from potatoes. Having separate hardware is gereally better than a smart TV app

mnemonicmonkeys,

Not only that, they probably would have been better off not using the original 4 playable characters since every game comes with a new set. Just make sure the side characters are done well and you keep the same feel as the games and it should have been an easy win

mnemonicmonkeys,

As far as video game adaptations go these days, this actually seems pretty true to the source material.

Uh… What? Look at the casting- Roland should be a straight-man (in comedy terms) but they’ve cast Kevin Hart to tell his typically unfunny cracks. And while I love Kate Blanchett she is not a good fit to play Lilith

mnemonicmonkeys,

Sounds like a good thing. It’s not like Infinite was any good

mnemonicmonkeys,

That’s halo 6

I am aware

Space Marine 2 feels even more explosively, grimly, and hilariously authentic to the Warhammer 40,000 universe than the first game (www.pcgamer.com) angielski

A Warhammer 40,000 space marine is not just your usual sci-fi super soldier. They are hulking behemoths, 10 feet tall (and about 10 feet wide too). They don’t move like people, they move like freight trains. They have the physical bearing of an industrial freezer unit and the emotional intelligence of a crocodile. They do not...

mnemonicmonkeys,

Personally, I hope any issues are with multiplayer because I completely don’t care about it. Single-player ftw!

mnemonicmonkeys,

I would recommend playing the first game (it’s good, though it is showing some age). Apart from that: no, you don’t really need to know the lore to follow along. And the comments in this thread have given more than enough background to follow it.

That being said, if you’re interested in the lore I’ve been listening to a podcast called “Laying Down the Lore Warhammer 40k”. I found it entertaining and informative

mnemonicmonkeys,

Hopefully it’s a bit more polished since DOOM 2016 is an example of the system being used really well. I found the first game to be a bit clunky at times

mnemonicmonkeys,

Any company that isn’t completely incompetent has some revision control solution like GitHub. It saves the original and all the changes throughout the life of the code. It’s designed specifically to allow developers to update or even delete code while still maintaining records

mnemonicmonkeys,

I don’t know where this contractor bullshit is coming from; if anything that should be aimed at Microsoft.

TBF, Valve does hire contractors to help work on Proton and Steam OS. I have no idea what the terms and compensation are, I’m just pointing out that they do hire contractors

mnemonicmonkeys,

And if they don’t want to always use that specific account, they can set it up for family sharing

mnemonicmonkeys,

I guarantee that you’ll get crickets for 99% of those emails

mnemonicmonkeys,

And Ubisoft can go fuck themselves with a cactus

mnemonicmonkeys,

He has hired a few contractors to help build out features like co-op, (though the first few versions were entirely him on his own). That would eat into profits a bit, but even if he paid each of them $100k for their work there are few enough for it to be a drop in the bucket

mnemonicmonkeys,

If it’s literally the first thing on startup, anyone annoyed can just refund it

mnemonicmonkeys,

Japan actually has a rather conservative culture, particularly in politics, so comparing them to US Republicans os very apt

mnemonicmonkeys,

c/patientgamers

It costs them money to include, so they’ll take it out eventually

mnemonicmonkeys,

Also earlier this year they stole purchased content from millions of their customers

mnemonicmonkeys,

Comedy is just tragedy + time

mnemonicmonkeys,

You have to put in an actual support ticket. There’s examples of people who wrote something like “The publusher is forcing me to sign up to a 3rd party and I do not consent”

mnemonicmonkeys,

Well, they’ve already announce that they’re just doing a slightly upgraded switch for their next console

mnemonicmonkeys,

Revolt is still a thing, though apparently they’re trying to rebuild voice chat

mnemonicmonkeys,

There’s Revolt.chat

Horn of Balance - an indie 2D zelda-like

I'm developing 'Horn of Balance', a 2D zelda-like featuring 12 non-linear dungeons, 2 interconnected worlds and a TON of secrets.

Right now, the project is live on Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hornofbalance/horn-of-balance) and we've almost hit the funding goal with just 24 hours left!

There's also a free demo on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2738140/Horn_of_Balance/) and Itch.

I'm happy to answer any questions you might have!

@games

mnemonicmonkeys,

Uh huh. That’s what Palworld said.

And Nintendo still hasn’t filed a lawsuit against them, despite years of development time, millions of copues downloaded, and millions made in profit

mnemonicmonkeys,

They don’t need to if the assets are just similar instead of straight-up copies

mnemonicmonkeys,

Dude, you really need to go touch some grass

mnemonicmonkeys,

They tell all of their users that they must have a legitimate physical copy of Pokemon Firered, which is what PokeMMO was hacked from

There is one uncleared level remaining in Super Mario Maker, with 18 days to go before the servers shut down (www.issmmbeatenyet.com) angielski

UPDATE: Ahoyoo has confirmed that Trimming the Herbs was uploaded with TAS tools, meaning that The Last Dance was the final legitimate level all along! Congrats to kazeihinn on the Last First Clear! The journey continues in Super Mario Maker 2…...

mnemonicmonkeys,

I never liked Gavin, but I never pegged him as a racist. Not sure if I should feel vindicated

mnemonicmonkeys,

You’re missing that the Yuzu repository was not DMCA’d. The Yuzu team took down their own repository, most likely as part of the settlement

Epic Games reportedly hit by 189GB hack, including login and payment info (www.rockpapershotgun.com) angielski

The report comes from Cyber Daily, who also broke the news of last year’s confirmed hack attack on Insomniac Games. The site claims that new ransomware group Mogilevich are the culprits, as per the screencap of a darkweb posting above, and that the hackers are now trying to get Epic or another party to pay up for the return of...

mnemonicmonkeys,

At least that’s how it’s supposed to be. You’re really not supposed to store card info yourself.

Don’t forget that we’re talking about a company that took 3 years to add a shopping cart to their store

How Do You Deal With Thumb Stick Drift? (lemmy.world) angielski

So I like to use Xbox controllers (doesn’t matter if it’s first- or third-party) because I like the layout, it’s just comfortable to me. However I’ve noticed that on all my controllers in the past few years, the left thumb stick will start to “give out” over the course of a couple months. For instance I’ll be...

mnemonicmonkeys,

I like my Gulikit Kong Pro controller. It has an xbox-style layout when you swap around the face buttons and has hall effect sensors

What game do you recommend someone who likes the mechanics but not the setting of Baldur's Gate 3? angielski

I saw people going on about how great BG3 is on this site, so I thought I’d check out a let’s play to see what all the fuss was about. I immediately fell in love with the graphics and the mechanics, such as the classes, races, spells, dice etc, but I disliked the emphasis on gore/horror in the game, and I know I wouldn’t...

mnemonicmonkeys,

To be pedantic, PF1 is lightly modified 3.5E. 2nd Edition is rather different

mnemonicmonkeys,

They can barely make AAA A these days though

FTFY

mnemonicmonkeys,

They’re finally giving a score below 7 lol

mnemonicmonkeys,

TBF, she did go on a tirad against players when the game was getting ciriticized. I found it weird that she took the criticism of the game’s writing so personally despite her not being one of the writers.

Keep in mind that I’m not excusing the death theats. That shit isn’t okay. I’m just pointing out why she may have been targeted for harassment.

mnemonicmonkeys,

They are as disposable as you want them to be. I personally try to take good care of my pals

mnemonicmonkeys,

I hope the devs add a way to release the pals withou the butcher knife. My box is starting to fill up and I need space

mnemonicmonkeys,

From what I hear, that’s par for the course with most Japan-focussed websites
