New Details on Valve's New Game 'Deadlock' - Insider Gaming (insider-gaming.com) angielski

As already leaked, the game is a 6v6 third-person hero-based shooter. Heroes include magicians, robots, creatures, humans, and more. There are currently 19 different heroes, each with different abilities and playstyles that you’d come to expect from a MOBA including ranged, healers, tanks, assassins, etc....

Lmaydev,

Apparently valve doesn’t really assign teams to certain projects. People can work on what projects they like and things organically get people behind them if they are looking good or interesting.

This means games that do get completed are often really good and ones that weren’t looking good fizzle out.

It’s an interesting approach for sure. I think it makes sense rather than steaming ahead with a bad game. On the flip side what could be an interesting product may die out.

It’s happened several times to half life 3 apparently.

Lmaydev,

We know very little about it at this point. It doesn’t reek of anything, seems like you’re just making assumptions based on very little information.

Lmaydev,

If they want to sell skins that are purely cosmetic I don’t have an issue with that. Some people have money to drop on stuff like that and it helps fund the game.

Loot boxes on the other hand can absolutely get fucked. It’s gambling, plain and simple. It has no place in games.

Lmaydev,

Boomer basically means 20+ years old nowadays as far as I can tell. Or older than zoomers.

Lmaydev,

Just don’t buy it.

30 is nothing to some people. It’s up to them if they want it or not. Doesn’t affect you.

Lmaydev,

“Hold alt and type equipment” was a favourite of mine.

Lmaydev,

Kind of a good description of our mars missions.

Lmaydev,

The key is making the dungeon/boss fun. The quests are just to lead you through the content.

If you don’t like fighting through dungeons and fighting bosses then the game may not be for you.

Like with GTA getting to places needs to be enjoyable.

Lmaydev,

It’s what Pokémon should have been a good decade ago.

Picking up charmander and using them as a flamethrower. Cooking Pokémon. Using them to water your farm.

Pokémon is one of the most wasted IPs I’ve ever seen!

Lmaydev,

You can butcher and cook animal crossing characters?

Lmaydev,

No palworld.

The chicken one lays eggs.

You get meat when you kill them which you can cook.

You can pick them up and use them as weapons.

It has a lot of cool features actually.

Lmaydev,

I totally disagree with the exclusives point.

So, so many games can only be brought on steam. It’s always been that way.

Lmaydev,

A large chunk of steam games can’t be brought elsewhere.

Lmaydev,

The end result is the same for the consumer.

Lmaydev,

Not to me. I just want to play games. Already have multiple launchers. Doesn’t make a difference.

Lmaydev,

Either way you install a client and play a game. Already have a few so it doesn’t really matter.

Lmaydev,

All the same to me. I have to install a specific client to play a game.

Lmaydev,

Yeah but if you think about looking at things you have to move your head up to look up hehe

Lmaydev,

If you’re playing first person you aren’t moving a camera. You’re moving the player’s head.

Lmaydev,

The city looks amazing! I’m guessing they spent all their time on the graphics and forgot the actual game.

Valve needs to step up on Anti-Cheat angielski

So yeah, I want to discuss or point out why I think Valve needs to fix Anti-Cheat issues. They have VAC but apparently its doing jackshit, be it Counter Strike 2 (any previous iterations) or something like Hunt: Showdown the prevalence of cheating players is non deniable. For me personally it has come to a point that I am not...

Lmaydev,

We went through this in RuneScape with auto miners. You just randomise locations and times slightly and it’s almost impossible to tell the difference.

It’s so easy to get around.

Lmaydev,

I was so excited for this initially.

All they had to do was add higher res resources and release it.

Such a shame.

How to let my kids find quality games on Android? Right now they only find the pay to win / ad riddled games.

My 9yo daughter has a tablet with family link, so I can monitor what apps she wants to install. As the garbage games are mostly at the top free, she keeps asking for games that I reject, in most cases because it’s riddled with ads....

Lmaydev,

Play pass is really good for games but my kids still constantly want shitty ad filled ones tbh.

Setting up adguard DNS worked really well but it can break games if they’re dependent on ads. Which isn’t a bad thing in my opinion.

Lmaydev,

StarCraft 3 and warcraft 4 hopefully.

Maybe a non shit diablo game.

Lmaydev,

They need more games for their pass.

Lmaydev,

The big difference is Reddit isn’t taking a portion of their wages. It was purely moral outrage.

Things are different once money is involved.

Choosing an engine is a business decision for a lot of people and using a free alternative that isn’t quite as feature rich sure seems like the better option now.

Lmaydev, (edited )

Which is exactly the plan. Short term cash boost and loss of trust followed by a new CEO who builds that trust again. Rinse and repeat.

The current CEO gets a golden parachute and the investors get some quick cash and likely buy more stock when the value falls.

Lmaydev,

PlayStation seems to have plenty of exclusives.

Lmaydev, (edited )

Trust is broken now. If they can just drop a new charge like this when ever they want how can you possibly plan a business around it.

Lmaydev, (edited )

Then we shouldn’t have artists because they looked at other art without paying.

Lmaydev,

A lot of people get very upset when games break their immersion.

So I guess you could argue being able to carry unlimited items does that. But so does carrying 15 two handed swords without a backpack.

I’ve never found it fun or interesting tbh

Lmaydev,

Kenshi. The story is basically what happens during a play through. But there is plenty of lore to discover.

Lmaydev,

One of my favourite games. So much fun.

Actual Hidden Gems on Steam angielski

I love obscure and overlooked games and want to share a bunch with all of you. Most “hidden gem” threads end up listing titles with thousands of reviews or that got some level of marketing. I aim to mostly avoid that. While you may see a few familiar games here, everything in the list below has under 1500 reviews on Steam...

Lmaydev,

I can lose hours in those games. I didn’t enjoy 2 very much but 1 and 3 are great!

Used to play the original back in the days of flash.
