They literally ssid they kept the mechanics running on the original engine so the game retains its “bethesda charm” and upon playing it, it became immediately obvious that Todd 100℅ believes what was charming about their games is the jank and bugginess. 🤦♂️
I really hate the fact that Morrowind was such a landmark, amazing, beautiful game in nearly every way (for the time) and they have managed to regress on every single front from that in every single game they have made after.
Video game budgets are still lower than film budgets and ticket prices for movies haven’t steadily climbed, arent anywhere near $60 a pop, nor have there been all these freaks coming out of the woodworks to say movie tickets should cost more.
Minecraft absolutely deserves it. Especially through the educational versions that are really driving these specific numbers higher.
GTA V’s sales were impressive and it is one of the most recognized games even to non-gamers so it makes sense that it is up there. It’s also a good game. At least, single player. The online shit is kinda fucked for the sake of making profit.
Fortnite is inexplicable. I don’t think it is a terrible game, by all means, I just don’t understand why it is the most popular one in its genre. 🤷♂️
I have also not really wanted to go back to 2D games; not because of the graphics, but because of the actual game mechanics of a 2D world vs a 3D world. Case and point: Dwarf Fortress is “3D” without being 3D. The world itself is three dimensional, even though you only are presented with a 2D slice of it. Other games have replicated Dwarf Fortress’s gameplay in 3D graphics, yet are still otherwise just two-dimensional with just 1 plane of operational space.
I love me some Metroidvanias, but I would like to see more that are 3D and not literally copying the 2D design of the OGs that named the genre.
Kernel level anti-cheats don’t appear to work any better than other anti-cheats. Hell, I can’t think of any 3rd party anti-cheat framework that everyond and their brother seems to license out that actually stops cheating to a significant degree. All the games I’ve ever played where it is rare to see a cheater in, if at all, all use in-house solutions.
Damn near every time travel game I’ve played has ended where you basically stop yourself from starting the whole plot so that none of it ever happens.
In the sense that everything you did was pointless: BlastCorps. It’s a “puzzle” game about destroying everything in the way of an out of control truck carrying a world-ending nuke on it, with the goal of having it safely crash into the ocean… But it still blows up and destroys the world at the end. 😩
Are you kidding? Batman has to deal with way stronger freaks in Gotham every single day than Raiden does in the entire MGS series. This includes the metal gears themselves.
