Spudwart, w Take-Two shuts down the AI-powered story mod for GTA 5

Common Triple A L.

OmegaMouse, w Story Kitchen Partners With Monomi Park For Film Adaptation Of Hit Videogame Franchise ‘Slime Rancher’
@OmegaMouse@feddit.uk avatar

Interesting! There isn’t much of a story to Slime Rancher, so I could see a standalone film, free to do its own thing and set it that universe being fun.

fartsparkles,

There’s enough plot hooks to work off of though. Beatrix LeBeau signs up to go to the Far Far Range to take over a ranch in disrepair, left behind by Hobson who has mysteriously disappeared. Beatrix leaves behind their lover Casey, the two experiencing a long-distance relationship and the struggles that come from being so far apart from each other. Whilst striving to rebuild the ranch back up to its former glory, Beatrix slowly uncovers what happened to the elusive Hobson and revealing the mysteries of the Ancient Ruins, The Glass Desert, the reality-changing Quantum Slimes who seem to indicate more than one reality can exist, and ancient portals between worlds.

I mean, how could that not make for a great movie!

Very true! A really interesting world/backdrop to set a film in. I’m optimistic

the_postminimalist, w EA loses minor FIFA loot box legal case in Austria

Do we know how much they made with this loot box system in Austria? I can see just one Austrian whale paying more than the ordered €10,800 on loot boxes. I don’t see EA stopping if they’re still making a profit on these in the big picture, if they’re only losing some legal battles and being ordered to pay less than they made.

PatFussy, w Larian working on mid-game Baldur’s Gate 3 character customisation

Ive had more issues on this game than not having the right haircut… ive had scenes turn black mid dialogue, clipping through walls, weird camera angles that force my character to T-pose… the list goes on. The game is great as long as it doesnt get bugged out

Duke_Nukem_1990,

All of those sound like minor bugs at worst tbh

Artaca,

They sound minor, they look hilarious, but then your smile fades as whatever is causing the bug blocks input to try and get past it, forcing a reload. I’m LOVING this game, but out of the 20 or so hours I’ve been able to sink into it since launch, a solid 2-3 of those hours have been retracing steps or generally trying to circumvent big bugs.

(Full disclosure: I am playing exclusively on the Steam Deck which I am 99.9% certain is the reason for all of the bugs I face)

Duke_Nukem_1990,

Interesting! I haven’t encountered any such bugs on Arch Linux (I use arch btw) so maybe there is some specific deck trickery going on.

themusicman,

Not sure if the steam deck gives you this option, but I’ve found the directx version to be much more stable than Vulcan when using proton

Andy293,

That’s so strange, I am 40 hrs in and can’t remember any bugs.

The only annoying thing is the camera that sometimes doesn’t show the layer I want so see and it’s sometimes hard to navigate, but I wouldn’t count that as a bug. Also characters in my party walking over hazardous areas when following the main char is so fucking annoying. I’m like 99% sure they didn’t do that in divinity original sin 2

PatFussy,

Yeah im also about 40 hours in and ive had at least 4 or 5 force quits where ive lost about an hour of time. Ive had bugs right from the beginning. In the cutscene where you leave the ship, ive had 2 friends say their screen either just flickered or their screen froze on screen for minutes. It was funny because they were playing naked and the screen froze on their butt for a solid 2 minutes. This is only within the first 1 hour. Ive had maybe 20 or 30 occurances where the screen freezes and I have to either wait for the game to unfreeze or it goes to that force quit i mentioned earlier.

I know the teams are different but i just thought its weird that its not talked about. It cant be just my group of friends that has these issues.

RegularGoose, (edited )

Ive had more issues on this game than not having the right haircut…

Sure, but it’s not like the team responsible for fixing those bugs is likely to be the same team working on character creation. Any time any studio announces something like this, people suddenly act like division of labor isn’t a thing. If you’re running a store and new inventory needs to get unloaded off the truck, you wouldn’t shut down the checkouts and send your cashiers who don’t drive forklifts to go do it.

Catoblepas, w How Unity and Early Access helped make Dave the Diver one of 2023's biggest indie hits

I’ve been watching a few streamers play this game, and the pixel art animations are honestly amazing. Every time a new cut scene is triggered it’s just delightful to watch.

Klystron, w Larian's unfair advantage - Credistick

Yeah imo it’s a pretty bullshit take to say what xalavier did. Like no shit not every new RPG is gonna be to the same quality as bg3 but is that us as the consumer’s fault? We’re supposed to just ignore bg3 and be happy with the status quo? When has being stagnant ever been good for anyone, ever? Fuck off and just make a good game and no one will complain

adept,

Nothing is gonna change. Consumers gonna consume

People will preorder the next cash grab and whoever cares about quality games will just have to wait. Although i have to admit that it will be pretty much impossible to match the love and care larian poures into their games.

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

Overwatch has had an identity crisis since Jeff Kaplan left. It’s a husk of what it used to be and a disappointment of what it could be.

It was supposed to be tf2 with moba elements. But now it’s trying to be left4dead with moba elements. I think it would be better off to return to roots and just keep innovating on the character and weapons and skills.

Anyway fuck blizzard.

AlmightySnoo, (edited ) w Valve Says Counter-Strike 2 for macOS Not Happening Because There Aren't Enough Players on Mac to Justify It

Could also be because of the Arm chips which add more burden on the developers who have to account not only for another OS but also for a completely different CPU instruction set.

@Granixo@feddit.cl avatar

Good, Ubisoft lost the way since *Revelations.

*I do think AC3 is awesome, aside from the ending of course.

Sinnz,

AC3 had too much of that boat gameplay. Worst thing about the game imo.

Mojojojo1993,

Absolutely disagree. Literally added “boat game” on every sequel. People clearly enjoyed that. I know I did. Will get a sea shanty going

Computerchairgeneral, w Disney CEO Deputies are pushing for Iger to transform Disney into a Gaming Giant (Perhaps via EA Acquisition). Currently non-committal. Rumor

Didn't Disney drop out of gaming during Iger's first run as CEO? He seemed pretty disinterested in gaming outside of licensing IPs. Then again his opinions may have changed over the years. Not sure how I feel about EA being bought up by Disney. On the one hand, Disney gets one step closer to being an all-consuming pop culture monopoly. On the other hand, at least Disney doesn't have a console or platform to make EA games exclusive to. Well at least not yet.

Brunbrun6766, w Making Tears of the Kingdom: Inside The Legend of Zelda's finest hour
@Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world avatar

It’s a good game, a great game even. But idk about ‘finest hour’

DScratch,

BotW was better, imo. But that doesn’t make as pleasing a headline.

misk, w New look for PS5 console this holiday season
@misk@sopuli.xyz avatar

Still looks like an air purifier / conditioner unfortunately.

I was holding off with upgrading my PS4 Pro with SSD but when I saw new PS5 leaks I went with XSX. Sorry, that thing has no place in an adult living room lol.

Fridge gang vs wifi router gang

Molecular0079,

Yeah, why they have to make it so curvy in the first place? And then they have to add a stupid extra base just to get it to not roll around. Too many designers in the kitchen IMHO.

UrPartnerInCrime,

I also like making dumb decisions based purely off of something or someone’s looks

misk,
@misk@sopuli.xyz avatar

I’ll take the bait. I consider both consoles evenly matched but from the perspective of Sony diehard it’s quite attractive value proposition:

  • I don’t care about first party exclusives because I’ve played enough Naughty Dog games by now. Third party ones will come eventually as always.
  • I didn’t own any Xbox consoles up until now so it’s a treasure trove thanks to backwards compatibility. Especially when plenty of X360 games run 4k60.
  • Game Pass is cool although new Microsoft games seem to be released in quite barebone state.
  • The console itself can be quite cheap where I live, got an XSX bundle with Diablo 4 for ~$450. Game Pass Ultimate with Live Gold tricks is like ~$70 for 2 years. If you want to get really cheap, region change to Turkey, buy rechargeable Visa and enjoy everything being -50% off all the time.
UrPartnerInCrime,

Yeah those are all solid reasons to buy then. I agree with you fully.

I prefer the curves though and that’s where my argument ends so you win lol

Let’s get a Lemmy server going.

Fizz, w RuneScape ends Hero Pass following pay-to-win criticisms
@Fizz@lemmy.nz avatar

The worst thing about jagex is their management. They are so out of touch and only see runescape as something to squeeze money from. They should be happy they have generated as much revenue as they have from such an old game. Last I checked it was pulling in hundreds of millions in profit.

mindbleach,

From a game that looks like the Atari Jaguar got a modem.

Oh right, and the other one, which looks like the most anticipated MMO of 2009.

raptir, w EA Games will Shut these Online Servers Down in 2023

And then we have NC Soft still running the Guild Wars 1 servers.
