Chariotwheel,

Nintendo dying confirmed!!

Chariotwheel,

Yeah, if a product is sold, I expect it to work for the most part. Now, mistakes happen, and not much to do about very obscure things and it's great if thing can be added afterwards.

But what I want, and this is apparently wild, is a finished 1.0 product that works as expected.

Chariotwheel,

This might be an issue, however:

In a separate slide that’s explained a little more fully, the company adds that the impact of mods on their reputation isn’t just the result of someone stripping Leon Kennedy down to his knickers. Players who install mods only to suffer performance problems such as crashes, freezing or save data corruption can end up turning to Capcom for support, which can then eat up workload and development budget that might otherwise be spent on creating higher-quality games.

Chariotwheel,

Actually, no.

While it’s hard to imagine anyone finding goofy mods swapping cartoon characters or kids’ TV characters for grisly monsters all that scandalous - something that Capcom seems to recognise by acknowledging that “the majority of mods can have a positive impact on the game”

Chariotwheel,

Restricting, not preventing like you said.

John Riccitiello is stepping down as CEO and president of Unity (investors.unity.com) angielski

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Unity (NYSE: U) (the “Company”), the world’s leading platform for creating and growing real-time 3D (RT3D) content, today announced that John Riccitiello will retire as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, effective immediately....

Chariotwheel,

He's been there for 9 years, not like he was just recently hired.

Chariotwheel,

They just really like EVE Online.

Chariotwheel,

The title should already give you a hint. "Everybody Hates" is a good beginning to a title for a 00s sitcom, but not exactly peak journalism here.

Chariotwheel,

I haven't pre-ordered since Stellaris. I bought in the launch week when I was sure that the game of desire was actually playale and fun.

Preorder FOMO shit can miss me, I have gacha games for that.

Chariotwheel,

A game engine

Chariotwheel,

I knew that game was DOA, I just didn't expect it at this point to not even make it to the A part.

After what CA did to Warhammer III it's even more infuriating that Hyeanas was thing and was for six years. All for nothing.

Chariotwheel,

No, they were bought by SEGA in 2005, so a really long time by now.

Chariotwheel,

While other devs are fighting errors, rpgmaker became the terror.

Chariotwheel,

Yeah, Nintendo have enough funds to just sit there and do nothing for decades. We also have seen plenty that they chose to go their own way instead of chasing whatever is popular right now for a quick buck.

As long as they have leaders following the Nintendo philosophy, they're just going to truck on, at their own pace for better and worse.

Chariotwheel,

Also, less innovation. Nintendo, for better or worse, always does its own thing. Sometimes that turns out bad, but often it turns out interesting at least and amazing at best. PS and Xbox do mostly the same thing with small gimmicks that are sometimes just dropped (kinnect 2). Nintendo goes all out with stuff that nobody else does. Like the combined portable and home console, handheld with 3D, a console with a giant board controller, a console with nunchucks as controllers. It goes outside of the box boldly and people rightfully love it for it, even if their hardware is most of the times weaker than the other console makers.

I can't imagine that Xbox or Playstation would want to get rid of the business rival that deliberately not competes with them on the same level.

Unity reportedly considering cap on hugely controversial per-install fees (www.eurogamer.net) angielski

A week after Unity announced dramatic changes to its Unity Engine business model - drawing immediate and widespread condemnation from the development community - the company has reportedly told staff it'll be making adjustments to the controversial new pricing plan....

Chariotwheel,

It doesn't work the same here as with B2C products. Excluding hobby developers who wouldn't been hit either way. most people paying for Unity are trying to make a living and a company eradically throwing the pricing model around is not a good look when there are altrnatives around.

People can and will go to alternatives for new projects. Unreal, if you want a marketplace and impressive 3D and Godot if you want FOSS. Not to mention the otber game engines.

It's about money here, in some cades not little amount of money.

Chariotwheel,

Unity the Right something something

Chariotwheel,

Gotta love how they really tried to check every argument against the engine.

Financially, trustwise, politically. Next would be sexual harassment in the office then.

Chariotwheel,

Great, what else then? Child labour?

Chariotwheel,

Heck, this worse. We wouldn't lose massive amounts of money when posting on Reddit. This is about the existance and viability of development and companies.

Chariotwheel,

Don't shove us all under the same rug. I packed my bags, shred my old comments and posts and went into the Fediverse.

Chariotwheel,

Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft Lawyers united... that's an enemy you don't want to fight. Each department alone is scary enough. All three of them? Now, that's something you want to be on very solid ground for.

Chariotwheel, (edited )

Takes a while to make a game. If I had to start right now, I would not pick the product where I wouldn't be sure where it stands in 2-3 years.

Epic Games is probably celebrating right now.

What are some games that "spin" failure states? angielski

What I mean by this, is instead of when you fail and are met with a game over, the game finds some way to keep it going. Instead of being forced to reset to a previous save or an autosave checkpoint, the game’s story continues in an interesting path. Are there any games like this?...

Chariotwheel,

A DC game with the system would be interesting. Not necessarily Batman, but on the street level of Batman. You start with a bunch of known villains and random thugs and as you progress and take out the known fixed villains, you get to see the progress of your own rogues gallery. That would be amazing. You see a villain at the end of the game and know their origin story, which you may have been part of, you know where they earned scars, where they got equipment and what drives them.

You know that's not Evil McDouchebag that someone directly wrote. That's the Evil McDouchebag that naturally occured and was forged in your play through.

(I specifically mention DC because WB has the licence, so what's keeping them)

edit:

Just saw that Monolith is actually working on a Wonder Woman game. Not quite street level, but otherwise I kinda might get my wish.

Chariotwheel,

That would be a dream too.

Not just enemies emerging dynamically, but your hero developing too.

Chariotwheel,

Maria Mario, Luigi Mansion, Supersmash Bros: Melee, Sam Aran, and Zelda Williams all were very upset.

Chariotwheel,

If you have time, I also recommend the People Make Games documentary that takes a look at and interview the people both sides: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGIGA8taN-M

It's more than two hours, but it's worth every minute.

Chariotwheel,

mfw a Bethesda game doesn't launch with thousands of handcrafted bugs

PlayStation Portal Doesn’t Have Bluetooth (gamingbolt.com)

Sony has officially unveiled the PlayStation Portal, and as a cloud-exclusive Remote Play handheld device, it’s obviously got a few caveats attached. The fact that it can’t play native games – or any native media – is, of course, one of them, while it’s also been confirmed that even the cloud library of PlayStation...

Chariotwheel,

They looked at the Vita and thought that the time of handhelds has ended. Only for 3DS jumping up after a rocky first years , the Switch released in fiery success and the Steam Deck even introduced mobile PC gaming.

Chariotwheel,

Copyright for the first Middle Earth starts running out in 2032, 95 years after The Hobbit was published. Probably want to milk this out of money while they still can, even if it's for scraps.

Chariotwheel,

That's what it is. They need approvement from the UK and will play nice 5-10 years and then they reconsider.

Steam Deck VS rivals

I was interested in buying a Steam Deck… Until I discovered all the (apparently) better alternatives. Asus Rog Ally, OneXPlayer, Aya Neo etc… I like the idea of an handheld console and obviously I would like to have a device that can run almost everything, so the Windows based handhelds seem better than the Steam Deck. Is it...

Chariotwheel,

Yeah, the Rog Ally got the more powerful hardware, but this is a good example how power isn't everything.
