GammaGames,

This isn’t surprising to me, with so many free to play games and the fact that this survey included mobile gamers. Still an interesting stat!

GammaGames,

A majority! Some players buy a few but it’s mostly supported by whales that buy everything

GammaGames,

You’re right! The guy that published the info had a funny disclaimer:

Pro-tip, before replying, know that even seeing this post likely puts you into that hyper enthusiast bucket, so the actions of you and your immediate cohort likely do not match those of the general gaming audience.

GammaGames,

After 20 hours of manually placed footsteps… Baby Steps is complete! Probably one of my favorite games this year, the story was thin but the writing was hilarious and kept me climbing to reach the next cutscene. The credits screen shows a dotted line of your path as you went and, since I played with my partner, we were constantly laughing as the dot rolled down hills and reminded us of our tumbles. If you have patience and are okay with occasional immature humor it’s worth a play. I thought the ending was perfect for what the game was.

I also finished Sniper Elite V2, it was good but showed its age. The new games were still too expensive so I got the Zombie Army Trilogy (an offshoot of the Sniper Elite series) for $5 as the autumn sale ended and have been having fun kicking skeletons apart

What’s Dying Light like? I played the first a bit and had fun, but haven’t been following the series lately

GammaGames,

Is it still mostly melee combat? Games with good melee are tough to come by, and I remember the first being pretty good with all the running and jumping

I’ll add it to my wishlist!

GammaGames,

Is that split screen? I was looking to play Don’t Starve Together with my partner but Don’t Starve didn’t say it was local, only online or LAN

GammaGames,

Ah I looked it up, Don’t Starve’s local coop is only on consoles. For some reason.

Cult of the Lamb isn’t though! Might have to pick it up, thank you!

How Games Do Destruction [Game Maker's Toolkit, 19:07] (youtu.be) angielski

Tldw: In this video, Mark discusses how modern, 3D games do real-time destruction. He goes over 6 different games as examples, and demonstrates how they each use different techniques to calculate real-time destruction that reacts to player actions. The 6 games are:...

GammaGames,

When did Rust add that? Back when I played it was essentially Ark/Fortnite building

GammaGames,

Oooh, Teardown and Red Faction have a bit more physics involved but I see the comparison

GammaGames,

Wow, congrats on beating Silksong! I’ve been watching my partner play and am afraid of the bosses, not sure how far I’ll get in it.

I’m slowly working through Baby Steps and having a blast with every tumble. It’s hard at first but after a handful of hours I’ve got a rhythm to scramble up most inclines. I find the navigation fun in the same way I like Snowrunner’s exploration: difficult terrain that can be learned and quickly traversed.

I’m also finishing Sniper Elite V2 because I never completed it and I didn’t want to buy the new Resistance game.

GammaGames,

I actually didn’t know that until a few days ago, I’m playing the original! They definitely went the right route in the newer games with the sandbox level design, but I’m still having fun with the linear levels

GammaGames,

What is coop like? I didn’t know it was a feature, I’m watching my partner play and it looks fun!

GammaGames,

Ah that makes sense 😆

GammaGames,

Oooh, I remember seeing that somewhere in the first game!

GammaGames,

These threat actors bypassed initial security screening from Valve which allowed the deployment of malicious patches and infected multiple users of the platform.

Good call! Considering the initial safety check they do before approval this seems like the easiest way for it to happen

GammaGames, (edited )

I’ve been playing Easy Delivery Co! It’s a little delivery type game, it reminds me a bit of Snowrunner but smol and fast

I uploaded a few clips to youtube, if anyone is curious and doesn’t want to look it up: youtu.be/TS4v3AL_xG

GammaGames,

Have you played Dishonored? It’s an immersive sim with assassin magic, one of my favorite games!

GammaGames, (edited )

That’s surprisingly similar to my experience! I played the original a handful of times when it released but never beat 2 because it came out at a time when I was busy.

Somehow I did end up playing a bit of Death of the Outsider and really enjoyed what I saw, I should revisit the series to give them a fair chance

GammaGames,

The Walking Dead! That was the first episodic game I played as it released

GammaGames,

How do you play them? I don’t see any builds or even screenshots to see what they look like

GammaGames, (edited )

You’re 100% right, but it’s also a problem of devs underpricing themselves. They’ll work for 2 years on a game and then set its regular price at $5, which actually limits its reach (shoppers see the price and skip over it, thinking it’s low quality) and helps make a race to the bottom that’s already destroyed the mobile market.

Silksong isn’t going to upend the market, some of the quotes are silly, and it’s not underpriced since they were going to sell millions upon millions of copies anyway. But the wider discussion of pricing is important since lots of developers don’t seem to understand the larger picture.

GammaGames,

Consoles aren’t doing much better, Xbox apparently crashed and ps5 currently has a 404 for the game’s page

GammaGames,

Switch 2 was the fastest selling console of all time in the US and has sold roughly 75% more than s1 at this point in its life

GammaGames, (edited )

Steam mostly prioritizes what makes them money, and free to play games don’t on PC

GammaGames,

Panic has been doing those SASE with most of the games they publish, I think it’s fun!

GammaGames,

Put over 6 hours into the Baby Steps demo, we can’t get this fucking cup up the mountain!

GammaGames,

I remember that being fun!

GammaGames,

I cannot get enough of ai failing

GammaGames,

Been playing some Battlefield 3 after it went on sale, mostly multiplayer. It’s still fun! There are occasional hackers but they get vote kicked within a few minutes.

I’m impressed how well it stands up graphically, and aside from a few control quirks it plays great. The biggest problem is that everyone else on the servers has been playing for the past 15 years so I’m pretty outmatched 😆 though I can occasionally get a nice sniper kill with my recon loudout

GammaGames, (edited )

Agreed, FC5 was great until the point it got repetitive. I played the latter half in co-op, it was absurd fun with the little helicopters!

I also spent the first 2 hours at the arcade playing launch week user created maps. They were… rough.

The detail about the sounds is interesting, I hadn’t noticed it!

GammaGames,

Played so much mkds, the snaking was unreal in that game

GammaGames,

Same!

GammaGames, (edited )

lol, that’s you in the thumbnail

Edit: the thumbnail used to say “you will own nothing” with Cayde-6 giving a thumbs up

GammaGames,

Finished Expedition 33’s 2nd act last night and still processing it! Beautiful game, I adore the story and world they created

GammaGames,

I hope it does, it deserves it! The fact that most of my complaints are insignificant annoyances really says something to the quality of the game, everything works together so well!

GammaGames,

Yes! I would still like a failed animation when I miss a parry and ground clutter sometimes has annoying collision, but neither of those stop me from enjoying the experience that is there. Everything is at such a high standard that it’s hard for any single issue to overshadow it

GammaGames,

I mean, they did? I wonder how the AI voice things will fare if this goes poorly for roblox

GammaGames,

They host diddy and hitler characters

Also cnn.com/…/character-ai-ceo-chatbots-kids-safety

GammaGames,

I’m 15 hours in and constantly surprised, definitely my favorite game lately! Even though I suck at parrying

GammaGames,

They do! I’d appreciate any feedback on a failure too, sometimes it feels like the worst parts of dark souls without the half-rolls lol

GammaGames,

Thought this was an interesting read on academic research and the machine that is marketing

GammaGames, (edited )

A NSFW game apparently had the most played demo last NextFest

GammaGames,

One of our first games for the original xbox was NFSU2. On so many Saturday morning’s I’d wake up revving engines from the other room as a friend played through the campaign

GammaGames,

I played the Knights in Tight Spaces demo and it’s really good, they evolved the hand to hand brawl theme from the first to add multiple characters in a party. The first game (Fights in Tight Spaces) sometimes felt like there was only one good play for a given hand. I found it really satisfying but this sequel feels a lot more strategic

GammaGames,

Hell yeah, he’s 1000% right

GammaGames,

Stop with your logic, I just came here to be mad!
