I remember connecting with WON before steam, nostalgia CS days

Prewash_Required, w Atari acquires massive Atari archive (AtariAge) after revealing a 'new' 2600 that takes cartridges

Sadly, this may mean the days of homebrew programming for the 2600 are at an end. AtariAge is where all those programmers sold their wares, along with homebrews for other platforms like Intellivision and ColecoVision. I’ll have to head back over there for the first time in a while to see what they say about it.

Current Atari is only Atari in name, they’re a completely different company.

geosoco,

From a hardware perspective, that's been true since just after the 1983 crash, when it was sold to Jack Tramiel's company -- even before the Lynx and Jaguar. The software side was split into Atari games which has an even longer history of being passed around.

Nibodhika, w Paradox of Hope, a Metro-style VR game, has been removed from the Steam Store following a copyright claim

That’s kind of stupid, Moscow metro station IS an anti-bomb shelter designed to surviv an atomic blast, anyone who’s visited knows this, they can’t copyright something that is real, is like if someone made a game setup in New York and the makers of Spider-Man sued them.

Saledovil,

I’ll estimate that the PoH guy would win if it went to trial, but he doesn’t have the money to actually defend himself.

If it’s slam dunk, lots of lawyers will accept commission for such a job.

Now, wether they can afford the time off is another matter.

I intend to take all the accumulated experience from working on PoH and release a new game in the same genre, but without using the Moscow metro setting. I will also likely seek the support of a major publisher this time around to ensure avoiding copyright issues.

Maybe the publisher would be able to help them with that and encourage them to keep the Russian metro setting?

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

Yeah. With how copyright claim happy companies like Take Two Interactive are I could see them doing that to any game set in your New York that had a slightly brown hue. Would be a funny trend though if publishers started going to court over the piss and shit filter that games of the mid 2000s had like Fallout 3, GTA 4, and Resident Evil 5.

The premise is pretty absurd though. Just because your game was popular in the west means you now own the Soviet aesthetic. Never mind the dozens of other titles that have done it but haven’t seen widespread acclaim.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

The copied the monsters and many other aspects. Lots of screen shots floating around.

Nibodhika,

A quick google revealed nothing, and looking at some in game footage those look like generic monsters, but so do the metro ones so they might be copies, but I can definitely find games older than metro with similar monsters for sure.

vivitux, w Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition has been revealed by Singapore's rating board

Yes! I was right to wait for the complete edition to buy it

Skunk, w What are your favorite split-screen co-op PC games?

+1 for it takes two.

There’s also a pretty nice list already in the comments.

I do like a lot Portal 2 but wifey cannot play for too long with me as she becomes impatient. When that’s the case and she just want to watch a story like you would watch a movie, I play A Plague Tales (both of them) and she ends up wanting to know more and finally, crying.

Omnimater,

Lmao yeah portal 2 was a little challenging

ArchmageAzor, w ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON - Patch Notes 1.02
@ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world avatar

Rather than nerf some overpowered weapons, they seem to have buffed some forgotten-about weapons.

Pxtl,
@Pxtl@lemmy.ca avatar

Well the Curtis rifle is hardly forgotten-about, it’s just that high ROF weapons that can charge are super tedious to wield in this dual-wielding meta.

weirdo_from_space, w Sega has a collection of 55 Sega Genesis ROMs for sale on Steam

I didn’t know Sega did that, pretty neat.

snakesnakewhale,

My impression is that Sega’s always been pretty chill & receptive to interest in respectful revivals of classic IP.

It’s been nice to watch a large company respond to that interest with more accessibility, and not less (Nintendo).

Scrof,

Sega does what Nintendon’t, but unironically.

The Stanley Parable, although it couldn’t be further from High on Life in terms of its comedy. Personally I don’t love the game but it’s absolutely hilarious.

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

Fun fact: There’s a fan-made Unity port of the Stanley Parable for PS Vita

azalty,
@azalty@jlai.lu avatar

I tried the game and it really wasn’t a fun experience for me. It’s just an overpriced walking simulator with some not really funny dialog playing.

All I did was trying to find bugs because I wanted to uninstall after 30 mins, when I figured out it’s not just the start that is slow, it’s the entire “game”

Oneeightnine,
!deleted4231 avatar

I mean yeah, it’s absolutely that.

azalty, w What are some good funny games/mods out there?
@azalty@jlai.lu avatar

High on Life is cool but seems defo overpriced and still has unfixed bugs that can brick your save.

I like to find bugs and do out of bounds in games but here it just broke a lot of things.

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

That’s always a shame. I wonder if there is a mod out there to remedy some of those issues or if they are still rolling out updates.

azalty,
@azalty@jlai.lu avatar

The last update was 6 months ago on Steam, I wouldn’t get my hopes up steamdb.info/app/1583230/patchnotes/

smallaubergine, w What are some good funny games/mods out there?

The South Park games are fun, I liked Stick of Truth more than Fractured But Whole but they're both enjoyable and funny if you like that kind of humor

bjoern_tantau, w Astarion's voice actor (Neil Newbon) is doing a let's play of Baldur's Gate 3
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

I hope they get the audio problems sorted. They do hilarious shit but Tom’s robotic voice cutting out all the time makes it a hard listen.

BTW, they had the Narrator, Amelia Tyler, as a guest for their third stream. She’s a friend of Neil.

Cavemanfreak,

He has pinned a comment on the first video saying audio won’t be a problem going forward. Not sure if that’s for the videos already out, or for a new batch of videos though, haven’t seen the first batch yet.

Nice, thanks.

gencha, w This Fallout New Vegas Mod rewrites over 1,000 functions to improve performance and reduce load/save times
@gencha@feddit.de avatar

Is the source code available or how does this work?

ArmoredThirteen, w This Fallout New Vegas Mod rewrites over 1,000 functions to improve performance and reduce load/save times

This article is talking about it like this is a new thing. It has been part of the core set of QoL mods for new installs for years now. Looks like they got a recent update though which is exciting

Edit: Didn’t look at the link just knew by name, looks like they released a new mod to compliment the one I’m talking about? This person is a fucking godsend

Coelacanth, (edited )
@Coelacanth@feddit.nu avatar

They did indeed release a new engine optimization mod, separate to the standard mandatory-install Stewies Tweaks. The past year has been crazy for NV mods.

Destraight,

It’s new to me, because I barely mod my games

Oha, w What are some good funny games/mods out there?

Postal 2 is pretty amazing

I had a bit of a hard time getting into Postal 2 with how dated a lot of the references were
