weirdo_from_space, w Overwatch 2 is now Steam's "worst game of all time"

Every week some other game seems to claim that title.

fritata_fritato, w Stalker 2 could still release this year, according to distributor listing

Whenever will be all good. There are a few things going on over there

Aye, my boy Pan Pizza getting a shout out on Lemmy, let’s go. I love his videos so much.

gk99, w Obsidian says Avowed was originally co-op but it just wasn't Obsidian enough

Lame. There’s no reason you can’t have co-op in an RPG. Wasteland 3 was made 100x better with the addition and allowing me to share the experience with a friend.

“I wish you could see me! I’m missing 3 limbs and I’m kicking your ass!” Lmao, this guy’s amazing! Some people are incredible.

gk99, w Strange Colorful XBOX 360 Games #13 (@RebelTaxi)

I don’t agree with the classification of 360 as “retro,” because I can think of multiple 360-era games in the top 50 charts today. The implication being that if the 360 is retro, so are its games.

And I can’t imagine going up to someone playing GTAV or CSGO and saying “bro this game is retro.”

can, (edited )

That’s a good point. To be clear I was commenting on people saying that in general. I don’t think Pan actually called it that.

ME5SENGER_24, w Ubisoft has a new Far Cry IP boss

I like these games. I do. But at the same time I don’t. They’re repetitive in the gameplay and it gets stale to the point where I never finish them.

Along with the Assassins Creed series, they have sucked me in and don’t deliver enough to maintain my business, yet a couple of months after a release when I see them go on sale the end up in my collection.

I’m hoping this news will end in an awesome game that I’m obviously going to buy and that I will actually finish, for once

coffinwood,

Agree. I’m playing Far Cry 6 and somehow got the feeling it’s even slightly worse (more stupid) than the 5th entry.

The map is filled to the brim with NPCs and animals, yet I’ve rarely witnessed such a dead world. Not a single NPC has a purpose or life. Cars outside the render distance disappear from the game too: turn around and that vehicle is gone like in those 1980’s video games. Turn around again: new NPC.

Finished a checkpoint / road block: your car is gone Baddies reappear in enemy areas although I just cleared it out. Such a lack of persistence is almost an offense.

Not one car that doesn’t sound their horn at me because they think I’m trying to ram them off the road. Arcade games from decades ago were less dumb.

Nfntordr,

Ubi really need to scale down the size of these games and adopt a quality over quantity mindset. I’ve played multiple Ubi IPs and they’re the fucking same at its core.

Nfntordr, w Stalker 2 could still release this year, according to distributor listing

Release about 1 month after Starfield to potentially capitalise on everyone realising it didn’t live up to the hype.

LilBagOfBunnies, w Overwatch 2’s Story Missions Are Good, But Not $15 Good

A buddy of mine loved OW1, ranked top-100 for Rein, and preordered OW2 a long time ago. Not only did Blizz not refund his $60 after they changed directions, he said he still has to pay for this content.

Obviously the main takeaway is another reminder to never preorder games, but that is so slimy.

Lojcs, w Researchers find China's game time limits ineffective in reducing excessive play

Is data from unity enough to draw conclusions? Wouldn’t they need data from other engines too?

Also unity collecting statistics from games using its engine and sharing them with other people is yuck

For unity, it’s becoming a you are the product type of deal oh and trend chasing.

JackGreenEarth, w Researchers find China's game time limits ineffective in reducing excessive play

Nobody seems to be saying this, but a 16yo playing 2hrs or more any day is ok and their choice. Making anyone under 18 only allowed to play 1hr a week is overly controlling and uncompromising - much like the rest of China’s policies.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Yup. We limit our kids (2 under 10)to 2hr/day, though they need to “earn” that time by reading, and we give them a free hour each week.

We think that’s fair, and that’s our choice as parents. As they get older, we’ll give them more freedom to set their own rules.

If my local government made the same restrictions as I make, I would totally oppose it. I as a parent should decide what my house rules are.

weirdo_from_space, w Researchers find China's game time limits ineffective in reducing excessive play

Spending too much time with games or internet either implies serious problems the person is trying to escape from, or a lack of alternative activities. Trying to force the people to stop won’t do anything, the goal should be to make it so people don’t feel the need to rely on these two as much.

If someone is bored they will just move to the next most dopaminergic activity, I would know I stopped playing all games one year at university and all I managed to do is read a bunch of books namely 2000 chapter Chinese xianxia novels. Me deciding to purely grind schoolwork was the thing that actually had any impact.

LittleWizard, w Rockstar acquires GTA 5 roleplay devs Cfx.re

Is this a good or a bad thing?

mom,

Is a bad thing. They will probably close it down.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Or worse, fill it with microtransactions.

Meowoem,

Only time will tell, it could go either way but it could mean the best bits of fiveM get included in VIo which could be fantastic.

“Fortunately for Glukhovsky, he is not actually in Russia, and was sentenced in absentia. His current whereabouts are unknown.”

Literally the last sentence lol thankfully, he’s not in Russia.

Yes that is good to hear! Hopefully they never find him

iltoroargento,
@iltoroargento@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Agreed. He shouldn’t have to hide, either, but that’s not where we are, apparently.

whataboutshutup,

He only needs to never come back, and for him it’s easy. It’s not yet that stage when they smuggle people back, rn they just clean up cultural landscape from ‘traitors’ to make it 100% sterile. Music scene is already like that.

jayandp,

What a relief. He must’ve dipped as soon as he saw where things were headed in Russia. I wonder where he got asylum? But at the same time I hope I never find out, for his sake.
