Dariusmiles2123, w PS Plus price hike: We'll all pay for a subscription-based future | Opinion

I’m not buying digital versions (although I have netflix) of the movies I love, so I’m not gonna start buying digital versions of the games I love.

I have a ps plus basic subscription, but I’ll not subscribe anymore if it gets more expensive. I haven’t received any email about a price hike for now though…

Maybe it’s only in some countries for now.

XTornado,

But how long will this last? I am not so sure that the next generation they could not get away with just digital versions not taking discs (or equivalent). The no discs versions of this generation, not just are for having a cheaper version is also a test to see how feasible could be in the future.

I mean that already is a thing on PC, although there are other reasons for it like the low adoption of bluray / DRMs / etc. Physical is non-existent except some really rare case. Even when some games are sold DRM free on GoG they aren’t sold in discs or USBs or similar.

Console_Modder, w Tim Sweeney says Epic Games Store is open to devs using generative AI

Wasn’t one of the main selling points for the EGS that there would be strict quality control so only “good games” would be on this store? And now it will be filled to the brim with the worst shovelware anyone has ever seen.

That is, if this will actually happen. I feel like Sweeney found a couple of seconds away from Epic’s lawyers and is talking out of his ass

Sounds like “Steam doesn’t allow X? We will allow X just to have you because we are so desperate for revenue”

I mean you aren't wrong, Epic did the same exact thing when Valve said no NFT bullshit on their market.

Yup. That seems to be a part of their business model (doing anything Steam won’t do). The problem is when those calls by Valve are for issues that touch on ethics.

It’s why I won’t even install their launcher. I don’t care how many games are free on Epic. I can’t support that kind thing.

cdipierr, w Witcher TTRPG Going on 'Disappointing' Hiatus During The Witcher 4 Development - IGN

There are lots of options for roleplayers who want to bring the Witcher to the table in the meantime, of various levels of complexity. There’s On the Path for something fun and streamlined, or Vaesen and Ironsworn for a bit more meat. You could use Monster of the Week or Bump in the Dark if you’re willing to move the setting into a more Witchery direction.

And if you’d rather stick with a system you’re more familiar with, there are supplements like Into the Wyrd and Wild or The Perilous Wilds that allow you to put your players through dangerous evirons on the trail of unique monsters.

Etterra, w Baldur's Gate 3's companions were overly horny due to a bug

I thought it was a feature.

SHOW_ME_YOUR_ASSHOLE,

How do I keep the bug? I like the horniness! There should be a switch in the options to enable extra horny.

Monomate, w Tim Sweeney says Epic Games Store is open to devs using generative AI

Allowing games that use AI is one thing. But in case of lawsuits, will they defend those devs’ right to keep their games published?

CADmonkey, w Baldur's Gate 3's companions were overly horny due to a bug

My first character I tried to make, I was wandering around poking everything and getting into fights (and losing) while Shadowheart and the green woman who’s name I can’t remember how to spell follow me around being catty or outright hostile to each other.

The second character I started after I basically got stuck in a position where I couldn’t advance, and every door our of the area I’m in was met with a “This is going to be bitterly hard for your sad weak little party” message on my first character. I spent some more time wandering around the crash site, which made me realize I needed to spend more time wandering around the crash site looking for people.

fraydabson, w Game Pass subscribers are snapping up Starfield’s $35 early access offer (extra on top of game pass)

This paired with the Xbox play anywhere system is nice. 2 years of game pass.

simple, (edited ) w Coming to Xbox Game Pass: Starfield, Solar Ash, and Lies of P

Despite the fact that I complained on release that Solar Ash isn’t nearly as good as Hyper Light Drifter, I think it’s a really underrated game. The atmosphere and visuals are incredible, and the platforming is really fun. Hopefully now it’ll get some recognition.

Excited to play Lies of P when it comes out. I’ve been wanting an actually good soulslike for a while.

Seems too little, too late. I’ll never forget the showcasing of “Milo” for Kinect which seems almost undoable even today.

russjr08, (edited ) w Rockstar is selling Cracked Game Copies on Steam
@russjr08@outpost.zeuslink.net avatar

Here’s a link to the thread on nitter in case anyone can’t view Twitter.

But holy cow, that’s uh… I’m not even sure what to say about that.

Edit: Apparently the link breaks for some mobile users and Kbin users due to the underscores, [nitter.net/__silent_/…/1698345924840296801](I believe this one should do the trick).

ricecooker, w Peter Molyneux says he regrets over-promising his games

Being able to say this out loud is a big step. +1 emotional maturity. +1 admitting he’s got a problem.

I’ll not deny that he has passion, but someone really should have reigned him in. It only hurt the game when it inevitably never delivered. Who comes up with game features on the spot to the media? No respect for the people who actually have to make the game, sheesh.

eltimablo,

The last time someone reigned him in, we got Spore.

tonamel,

Peter Molyneux didn't work on Spore, that was Will Wright.

donuts,
@donuts@kbin.social avatar

Frankly, I'm offended by the comparison on Will Wright's behalf.

eltimablo,

Wait seriously?

GreenMario,

Maxis, not Lionhead.

Molyneux released Black and White at around that time.

ABCDE, w Stray is being turned into a movie

With a lot of fleshing out it could be good, with no need to follow the loose story the game has.

OptimusPrimeRib, w DF Weekly: Is FSR 3 frame generation viable for console games?
@OptimusPrimeRib@sh.itjust.works avatar

If the fsr3 upscaler us remotely as good as dlss 2 I’m happy. Dlss is just good enough to use while I really don’t want to use FSR because of the shimmering.
