I saw recent studies show that Facebook is no longer cool to younger generations, and the older generations are either not remotely interested in VR, and/or aren’t interested in Meta out of principle (security, ethics, etc). I know that’s hand-wavy and anecdotal, but I’m trying to gather who is going to buy these in big enough numbers to make them profitable. Probably just another vector that they want to hoard your data from.

dbtonez, w Weekly what have you been playing discussion - week of October, 9, 2023

fell back into The Division 2 and started Vermintide 2. always playing Diablo 2. playing Baldur’s Gate with a friend once a week. trying to get myself to go back to ARMORED CORE, but i just keep getting my buns handed back to me XD

have been meaning to get into baldurs gate! I’ve got 4 other friends that I played DnD with a while back and it was hilarious. from what I’ve seen of it BG3 would be amazing to play as a group

dbtonez,

i’d highly recommend it. it’s still a lot of fun solo, but playing it with my friend has been a treat. sometimes we make a decision for the laughs, other times we get into semi-serious debates about what to do, where to go… and it’s fun seeing how different our co-op playthrough is from our solo playthroughs.

Greedy out of touch old fuck.
Then again, it’s s not like the board is much better.
He’s gonna be their golden fall guy now, but it’s shit all the way up.

newthrowaway20,

My thinking exactly. He’s just giving the board what they want, and continuing to do so by taking the fall.

Fucking capitalism and it’s endless rewards for price fixing.

TL;DR

New Game with huge matchmaking issues vs Older Game with no matchmaking issues

DigitalCatcher,

Wasn’t there issues with them bringing Payday 2 to the Epic Games Store and trying to have EGS and Steam players cross-play with each other?

BruceTwarzen,

Pretty sure more people would play overwatch, warzone and cs:go if it was still around

Is this like a math problem?

Silent wind of doom is a nice callback. A Muscular Beaver attack would’ve been funny too

More power to you if you like it but man I cannot imagine wanting to play a game like this with strangers

don’t give facebook money. Buy the valve index instead

DaCookeyMonsta,

Tell Valve to not have a wired only option at double the cost then.

simple, w Meta Quest 3 Review (IGN)

The facial interface is lined with a foam padding that will absorb your sweat like a sponge, that’s a sanitation issue because the padding isn’t removable

I thought the padding around the eyes being removable was standard, this will wear over time and smell like sweat every time someone puts on the headset. Eugh.

It’s owned by Meta so I’ll never buy it but still, that’s a weird oversight.

wccrawford,

I thought that this was incredibly dumb, so I went looking… And from what I can tell, there’s a whole section that can be replaced, including the padding. Instead of just the padding. So there will be replacements available, and third party replacements, too, I’m sure.

@starman2112@sh.itjust.works avatar

Seriously fuck those temples. It already takes two minutes to walk from the ship, and now I gotta spend two minutes floating around in zero G?

TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY TIMES?

The1Morrigan,

Two hundred and forty times?

starman2112,
@starman2112@sh.itjust.works avatar

Without spoilers, there are 24 temples, and to max out what you get from them you need to complete each one ten times

shneancy,

bruh

tburkhol,

omg. I’m just 15 hours in, haven’t discovered temples yet, but that seems unconscionable. Like, MMO levels of grind. I mean, I’ve happily put hundreds of hours into each TES-offline, FO-offline, Deus Ex, CP2077, BG3. I don’t mind repetitive if the mechanic is fun.

MMO grind is for when you expect your customers to spend hundreds of hours just hanging out with their friends and you need to find something for them to do. It doesn’t have to be fun or rewarding, just distracting. Maybe TESO and FO76 have distorted their priorities.

darth_helmet,

The “puzzle” is that when you enter the temple, it goes zero-g and a spinny thing in the middle pops up. You have to float to a thing that looks like a spinning top, and once you float through it, another one appears. You float through a dozen of them or so and then you get a space power. Such a colossal failure of game design that this was acceptable to have as any puzzle, but the audacity to make it literally the same puzzle at every other temple completely boggles my mind.

240 times. Sometimes a dude appears when you leave the temple, and he’ll shoot at you. There are better puzzles on the kids menu at Denny’s.

RizzRustbolt,

Nine times.

watches number go up on computer screen

Grace!

GoodEye8,

The number isn’t really the issue. The issue is that every single one is exactly the same. Skyrim had like 80? words of power but they were fun because you had to beat a boss or clear a dungeon or do a quest. In Skyrim you got at least some personal touch to getting those words.

In Starfield it’s always the same 1-2 minute walk from ship to temple and then float around in a small room until the central thing opens and then you get teleported outside the temple where you kill 1 guy that 90% of the time spawns directly in front of you. If it was as many times as in Skyrim it would still be mind numbingly boring, because there’s nothing interesting about them.

Cethin,

To 100% it, yes. It has to be done ever several new game cycles so you’ll also have to go through the other shit multiple times too. I don’t think anyone is expected to do that though. The new game plus stuff undermines the outpost system though. It’ll be gone your next cycle, so just don’t bother I guess? The ideal meta progression would be to rush through the main story and complete all the temples on your cycle then move on.

@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

Removing content from the game you paid for, LMFAO

Cethin,

Emjoyment/hour should be the measure of a good game. This sort of a thing only works to increase time played, not time enjoyed. It’s only a negative.

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

sure if wasting your money adds to your enjoyment go ahead, the rest of us gonna have a laugh though

Fraylor,

He said, standing by himself.

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

what’s the criteria for that? no comment likes? lmao

Fraylor,

Idk, what’s the criteria for assuming everyone or even a group of people agrees with you?

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

You brought it up you tell me

Cethin,

What? Wasting money by not wasting my time on something not enjoyable?

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

Wasting money by buying the not enjoyable thing, pay attention

Cethin,

First: I didn’t.

Second: Some people find the game enjoyable enough. Not every part will be though. If I turn off the startup logo shit, am I wasting my money? That’s part of the vanilla experience that I’m now missing, right? How is this different if not?

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

Tfw you consider gameplay equal to company logo, lmfao go ahead bro it’s your money I’m just having a laugh

Cethin,

Tfw you consider that part gameplay.

I’ve got better stuff to do with my time then those temples and that more important than any “value” I lose not engaging in it. However, how is it valuable to do? If it isn’t enjoyable, it wastes time, and I don’t get anything for it, isn’t that the reverse of value? Isn’t the smart thing to do removing it? Wtf is wrong with you where you’d want to engage with something you don’t enjoy?

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

Tfw I consider gameplay, gameplay. Well whatever helps you cope

Wtf is wrong with you where you’d want to engage with something you don’t enjoy?

The part where you dont want to engage with it and still paid for it 🤣

Cethin,

Dude, read. I didn’t pay for it. Damn, you’re annoying. I’m done. I’m not sure why I responded so many times when you’re clearly a troll, or at least as good as one.

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

Obviously Im referring to the game when I say paid, not the mod that would be even funnier, well if being intentionally obtuse helps u cope like when youre equating logo to gameplay, so be it

Cethin,

I didn’t pay for the game.

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

The majority did which is what my original comment was addressing, if you didn’t I was obviously not referring to you

Aermis,

So you clearly didn’t buy the game or play it. Why are you even here?

synceDD,
@synceDD@lemmy.world avatar

If assumptions make you feel better for removing stuff you paid for, go ahead as well

Dr_Cog,
@Dr_Cog@mander.xyz avatar

Tell me more about what is being removed and why you enjoy it so much you want to keep it in
