CitizenKong,

Between Fable and Dragon Age, which both look pretty good, I’m afraid this game will have problems not tanking.

CitizenKong,

Yes, I really like them as well. And I bet the game will be good too. I just worry about the game not selling good enough and with Microsoft’s current track record of shutting studios down, Obsidian being shut down as well.

CitizenKong,

Someone should remind them that they didn’t do it the last hundred years or so because the alternative was angry mobs trying to kill them.

CitizenKong,

AI is the new procedural generation, in that it will be touted as making the games more real and immersive but really only makes them boring and repetitive, thus stressing the importance of genuine creative handcrafting. I’m looking forward to smaller studios selling their games with a “no AI” pitch in a few years.

CitizenKong,

I mean, Larian is pretty much that. Instead of just doing Baldur’s Gate 4 although Hasbro fired all their contact people and probably would have urged Larian to rush a sequel, they are instead during an IP of their own next and refuse to go public and/or get bought.

CitizenKong,

That narrative LEGO thing sounds like a fancy way of saying that it’s a branching story with several outcomes like Detroit: Become Human, but maybe less linear? Which still sounds like a cool approach for a shooter.

CitizenKong,

I really hope they’re going sci-fi. I can only replay the Mass Effect trilogy so many times.

CitizenKong,

I’m hoping for Sci-Fi and the next Mass Effect.

CitizenKong,

Don’t forget to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow!

Where's Our Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Review? (IGN denied review code) (www.ign.com) angielski

In a bad-vibes moment, they’re denying a huge outlet like IGN a review code. No matter what I think of IGN in particular (nothing good tbh), that’s not something I can find a real explanation for other than “We made DC’s Gollum and want to avoid bad press as long as we can”.

CitizenKong,

That game might have had a chance to find its audience but with the surprise success of Palworld it’s now definitely DOA.

CitizenKong,

I mean it also fucks up the city if you kill the community pillars.

CitizenKong,

Really hope Venom is Eddie this time. (MJ did mention an unscrupulous new reporter at the Bugle). Also playing as Venom was so much fun I just knew they were going to do a stand alone.

CitizenKong,

Is it just me or does this character look like a female Jeff Goldblum for some reason?

CitizenKong,

But only sitting down (you can still look around) and with only two possible scenes playing out in the metro itself. Still, better than nothing!

CitizenKong,

I’m not sure how that’s meant? Expanse was saved by Amazon and allowed to have enough seasons to tell its story.

CitizenKong,

I hope the praise heaped on Cyberpunk 2077 now doesn’t let them forget the absolute shitshow of a launch so that they don’t try to rush out the next game half-baked as well.

CitizenKong,

They also flat out lied about what kind of game it is right until the release. They promised NPCs with their own lives and incredibly intricate dialogue choices that have ripple effects on the whole game. Nothing like that is in the game, even now.

CitizenKong,

They’ll change their tune when Suicide Squad is a colossal flop. These execs don’t understand that it’s really hard to do a good live service game.

CitizenKong,

I mean, that’s pretty much everything that isn’t tech too.

CitizenKong,

It’s very much a technical limitation since Bethesda still uses an engine that goes back all the way to 1997.

CitizenKong,

By all accounts it’s been also maintained terribly over the years.

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....

CitizenKong,

Ignoring morals and basic empathy is probably the hardest part. Which is why psychopaths are perfect for those kinds of positions.

CitizenKong,

Yeah, people tend to forget how shitty Skyrim was at launch. It was completely unplayable on PS3 for literal months.

CitizenKong,

I absolutely agree. Every single voice actor from the main party of BG3 was stellar (including the narrator), while J.K. Simmons seemed to be bored while recording his lines and Jason Isaacs was good but nothing extraordinary.

CitizenKong,

I’m determined to remains faithful to my soulmate Karlach, but it’s sooo hard, everybody is practically throwing themselves at me.

CitizenKong,

Also complete (tech- and content-wise).

Microsoft documents leak new Bethesda games, including an Oblivion remaster (www.theverge.com) angielski

Remember that these were estimates from more than three years ago and before Microsoft completed its acquisition of ZeniMax in March 2021, so there’s always the chance that some of these plans have changed dramatically or been scrapped entirely. But they may provide an early look at some of the games we can look forward to...

CitizenKong, (edited )

Since the Oblivion and Fallout 3 remasters will be on the Creation Engine, they will probably just be the old games with HD textures more or less. So basically what is already possible with mods.

EDIT: Also, I wonder if the Skyblivion project will finally be finished just to get a cease and desist letter by MS because they do their own remaster of the game.

CitizenKong,

A better UI? By Bethesda? I wouldn’t bet on it.

CitizenKong,

It’s funny that the quality criteria for a Bethesda game is “not as buggy and unfinished as previous games”. Which still means plenty of bugs, of course.

CitizenKong,

I still remember playing the first game thinking computer game graphics couldn’t possibly look more realistic.

CitizenKong,

Baldur’s Gate has some of the best gaming moments in my recebt memory, but those are more character and story moments. On the other Hand, FFXVI has the most epic boss fights I’ve ever played, basically Kaiju beating the shit out of each others.

CitizenKong,

Yeah, as soon as it became known that this is still on the Creation Engine, I knew there would be loading screens galore. Seamless exploration of planets and actual infinite space flight is just not something this engine is capable of. Hell, I’m impressed they managed to squeeze even the little space flight out of it that they did.

CitizenKong,

I agree completely and would like to add especially if it’s a Bethesda game. I can still remember waiting for half a year for Skyrim to be playable on PS3 after buying it on launch day.

CitizenKong,

The Reapers have won.

CitizenKong,

They just fired 50 devs while working on two games simultanously. I wouldn’t be surprised if BioWare doesn’t manage to finish either one before going bankrupt.

CitizenKong,

It will likely still have loading times hidden behind unskippable animations. (See the door opening animation in the gameplay reveal.) You’re going to need an SSD to make that work.

CitizenKong, (edited )

Yeah, the only other game that was so brazenly lied about before launch was No Man’s Sky and to their credit Hello Games actually implemented everything that was promised back then now and then some, for free.

I am LOVING Baldurs Gate 3 angielski

I’m just a little bit late to the Baldurs Gate 3 party, but I searched on here and didn’t see much follow up discussion about it after the review thread. I’m also trying to submit more to Lemmy so the communities can grow, so I thought I’d bring it back up now that it has been out for a few weeks....

CitizenKong,

I agree, and the fact the NPCs have conversations and stories that play around you which are not automatically turning into quests for you to do (sometimes even chiding you for eavesdropping) makes the world feel much more alive and less player-centric.
