Take your own advice? What games do they have not on some other developer’s engine? Other than their initial expansions for Half-Life, which are basically mods for Half-Life, all the games I know they have done were built on various iterations of Unreal Engine.

I am a premium gamer; if you want me to play your premium game, you’ll need to subscribe to me for $29.99/month or $324/year (that’s a 10% discount from the month to month!)

My biggest problem with survival crafting games is the balance is always horrendously unfair and is just irritating as fuck, or there isn’t even anything to survive against because they didnt put any kind of antagonists in the game so the building part is completely aesthetic.

The PvP focused ones do both at once! There are no enemy NPCs, and the balance between the human players is stupid AF.

Oh god. They didnt even improve upon the BODY in any way. They could have at least made the feet longer so it stands a bit taller.

Even when I was a kid, the VB was super short and uncomfortable to use as intended. I always just laid back in bed and just let it lay on my face 😅

Surely they could get in the Meta Quest price range.

Or make a Power Glove that works.

I can think of just 1 guy who is even more of a used car salesman… Chris Roberts. Literally has been selling digital spaceships like used cars. Including the actual prices of the digital ships being roughly the same as a used car.

PS2 because the mod I used was nothing more than some styrofoam in the disc ejection sensor to do hot swapping.

Although, I also liked Morrowind on my modded xbox, becsuse it used the same file system as the PC version and could be modded if the mod was just an .esp file made in the editor and you manually added it to the load order .ini.

Something in Elden Ring always stands out to me because you, as the player, certainly do not see any examples of this being true so you really have to trust Melina when she tells you;

However ruined this world has become, however mired in torment and despair, life endures. Births continue. There is beauty in that, is there not?

Difficulty is subjective. Creating multiple levels of difficulty either takes tremendous effort to do well or, as is the case with most games, an adjustment to some numbers that is less an increase/decrease in difficulty and more an increase/decrease to the tediousness of combat.

Puzzle games with difficulty settings alter the complexity of the puzzles. Action games can alter the encounters themselves (how many, of what kind of enemies and their placement in the arena), or even changing the enemy behavior to be more/less complex. Yet this kind of difficulty adjustment isn’t common at all anymore.

Wanted to check the price on Steam and I am not sure what is going on but the New and Recommended thing below the giant banner for Silk Song had Silk Song in it but the price shown there was only $12.49 while the game’s actual store page says $19.99. 🤨

Steam also has a method of creating offline backups for every game on it.

You restore them with the app; you don’t need to be online, which means you don’t need to be logged in.

Have to switch to a regular control method

Does the rest of the game support full motion controls now? It didn’t the last time I played, so it didn’t matter if you were in ship or on foot; you were doing everything with a normal controller, M&KB or joystick setup regardless. It always annoyed me because why can’t I just use my hands to move the throttle stick and steering column in-game?

Every time I look up something I can’t figure out, I am presented with a bunch of tangenital items that I haven’t even seen yet and I’ve been grinding the game for two weeks now. And CA just announced it was getting more! This unassuming retro farming game is fucking massive. 😵‍💫

I’m still pissed that I attempted to buy that setup from Amazon like 3 times, and they would ship it but then cancel the order and refund me without explanation. I want one of those so damn bad 😭

There’s not a cheating problem at all in Rocket League. Literally the only multiplayer game I’ve never seen or even heard of someone cheating in. Not even sure how you would when client side things won’t even help play the game (even an aimbot for the ball would end up being a hindrance) and everything important is handled server side.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

And the person I replied to stated that no multiplayer games of any kind are without cheaters.

How is editing replay clips cheating in the actual game?

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

The clip thing doesn’t affect anything in a game ever, at all. I didn’t question boosting or DDOSing the servers; that shit has an effect on the game. The first thing doesn’t. Not even remotely.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

You boost yourself to a level you can’t actually compete in and just fuck up the game for your team mates. It’s the exact opposite problem smurfing creates.

I’ve always been open to adult only games, but for the vast majority there are only two basic types:

  • Visual Novels - Everything about these is fine. They vary from basically just a graphic novel to a full on RPG.
  • Nude Puzzles - Various cheap-ass puzzles with nude images as the prize.

I want, like, a real game but with full adult only content. These exist, but are hard to find. And a lot of those I’ve found aren’t finished, never will be finished, and/or just suck. It doesn’t even have to be the focus. Just imagine if when you got a hooker in GTA or some other game where brothels might exist, you got to see more than a fade to black/car bouncing around.

Is this month's Humble worth it if I'm not into Persona? angielski

Humble changed their pricing model this year, so it’s my last year subscribing, so I want to use a little more discretion and skip some months because they do have “tent poles” that interest me sometimes. This month the tent pole is Persona 5, which I hear is good, but I still have Persona 4 on my backlog and it doesn’t...

Lil Gator Game is fantastic! Short, but fantastic! I heard they are making a sequel recently, which has me hyped.

Also Banishers is kinda mid gameplay wise, but the story is really well done. Been playing it periodically on PS+ since it was added.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

I actually hadn’t even heard of it, but I’ll definitely be checking it out soon now.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

There is a giant ass cliff somewhere in the game that seems impossible to climb even when you’re maxed out. But there is a way to get all the way to the top and you will find nothing there unless you finish the entire game like 4 or 5 times. And then… It’s still totally not worth it even though they actually put something there.

At Gamescom, it felt like the industry now has a plan: make games quicker | Opinion (www.gamesindustry.biz) angielski

“And at least part of that plan involves AI”, reads the subtitle. To be clear, not an endorsement from me. Some of this reads very strangely to me, but this is boots on the ground reporting from Gamescom of developer sentiment....

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Could you instead make them better? They’re already mostly shit and you wanna pump 'em out faster so quality drops even more? 🤦‍♂️

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

You’re gonna be disappointed as fuck. Open world games are so formulaic and actually easier to shit out than a well-crafted linear experience. Especially when youre using generative tools. Huge maps are NOT hard to create or fill when you don’t give a fuck about quality.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

It’s not a gurantee, but cutting the time down when QA is already paper thin ain’t gonna make shit better and likely won’t even retain the quality it currently has.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Does that mean you would prefer sequels to just be glorified map additions to the game you already own? If Doom 1 and 2 were done today, Doom 2 would have been a DLC.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

The use of generative AI tools implies scope isn’t going to change at all.

Because they are completely tone deaf.

No one is forced to be straight… Most games don’t even have romances.

Like you think Doom Guy is straight because he’s clearly a Christian? When I control him, he’s the gayest queen in Hell. 🤷‍♂️

I don’t even remember everything that came out this year I have played… 🤔

Expedition 33? Blue Prince? Rivals of Aether 2? Uh… 🤷‍♂️ That might actually be it, tbh.

Edit: Oh, just what Ive played IN 2025? Elden Ring. Easy.

Game recommendations angielski

I want to get some recommendations on hardware (controllers) and games. Here’s my lunch time idea. Right now I got a high power 1080p projector that we watch movies on every night. Let’s say I got 8 players and a run of the mill computer. It does have a midrange nvidia card and AMD processor but let’s ignore that. What...

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

I can’t think of a single game other than maybe Monopoly or Worms or something else where only 1 controller is used snd just passed around in a turn-based game that would even support more than 4 people playing at once with a single machine.

Most games only support up to 4 players in split screen, and most of those wre going to be older cuz modern games tend to not have splitscreen multiplayer at all.

Subnautica studio Unknown Worlds files lawsuit against ousted founders for allegedly downloading over 170,000 confidential files (www.gamedeveloper.com) angielski

After filing a lawsuit against Krafton, Charlie Cleveland, Max McGuire, and Ted Gill are now being sued by their former employer for purportedly making off with reams of confidential information including business records, intellectual property, and more.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

The wildest thing to me about this whole thing is that the company says one of the three founders took company money to invest in a personal film project, but when you look into what film project they are referring to, it is an ad campaign for subnautica 2 that the company itself told him to make.

You can adjust a lot of stuff now. And there are also mods that let you adjust even more. You can make it so death is just a minor inconvenience that just sends you back to spawn, keeping everything, including your XP, if you wanted.

I usually turn down the greydwarf spawns, double the drop rate of everything, and enable using portals while holding metal along with removing the death punishments. Only adjusting the mob spawns requires a mod.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

Some of them can be changed in an already made world, but others can only be set at world generation. If it’s been long enough, you might have to generate a new one to get new biomes and such to appear anyway.

Keep in mind your character can be separate from your world so you could have all your gear and levels in a fresh new world, too.

It looks nice. I just wonder if what made the 2Ds ones fun for me gets translated into 3D. I always liked the almost Tribes like movement of skiing and flying from the OGs more than any other side scrolling platform game.
