I think the issue is calling a next gen port a remaster. Yea it is technically a remaster but adding that to the title makes it seem like more then that.

If said game was released as definite or something nobody would be talking rn

New games don’t make as much money as old games that people are nostalgic for. I hate that fact but its what the AAA industry has turned towards

Bonus menu of artwork, music, and behind-the-scenes videos, showing never-before-seen concepts and unused art as well as the entire Cuphead soundtrack

all stuff that’ll be online within 24 hours, no new gameplay content

Its very easy to play the older AC games. Download a rom/iso and emulator

This is exactly why emulation is a needed thing.

Unless you are trying to the the ps3 game the ps2 and psp should be able to be emulated on literally any pc.

Hell psp runs fine on most android phones as well.

You literally have to be trying to not find a way to play these games if you say they aren’t easy to play. Fuck legality if the copyright hold is sitting on these games for no fucking reason

Thanks, I hate articles that spread misinformation

If it’s at least as powerful as the steam deck, then this tracks tbh

Its a cute device, but 90 bucks without a pi or sd card?

If the release is on Deezer, you can use deemix and you can get a arl with some easy googling

I dont see that in the article, does it say that elsewhere?

No? I’ve definitely played denuvo games on my steam deck completely offline. It’s like a once a month check or something.

And according to the website the drm is moreso hardware based, which is much more feasible on set hardware like the switch versus PC.

Fuck Denuvo and all but let’s keep speculation and facts clear

Also sorry about my tone, I realized afterwards it came off as kinda dickish.

I will say this post isn’t completely true. Denuvo (on pc) requires online checks but from what I’ve experienced it’s typically every 2-4 weeks. I’ve played persona 4 and 5 on my steam deck without internet just fine.

Edit: Of course this could change for switch. It would be backwards as fuck, but I suppose it is possible

I’m one of the very few who dump my own roms and use as a sorta cross platform game save.

Sentinian, 10 miesięcy temu

Let’s be real, the devs of switch emulators will get past whatever shit they put in. Denuvo isn’t gonna harm switch games nearly as bad as PC games

Edit: Worse case it just need a more unique console identification which might curve piracy but not stop legit emulation

We will need to see how it works, but the software checks in theory will be hardware based, so if the yuzu or ryujinx devs figure it out we should be good. Roms will still popup quick

I am very hyped. I got into mech games from daemon x mechina and want onto playing some of the older AC games. When they announced this my heart damn near stopped

Gameplay wise it’s a blast. The story is a pretty basic anime esc story. Back when it first came out the pvp and pve was a blast as well.

Sentinian, 10 miesięcy temu

I’m a bit out of the loop in gaming, what the other big ones?

(Huge mech fan so this is a quit everything and play this game)

Before this tweet, they also mentioned piracy over grey market keyshops, which seems to be a lot more of a valid reason to endorse it. This seemly links to that tweet.

I loved the skip puzzles feature! I struggle with them a lot and I’ve dropped so many games cause of them.

Having a long commute has taught me the valve of going to bed on time. Despite having to wake up at 4am I can easily hit that 8.5 hour mark most nights, just by actually turning off electronics and such. I also sleep really well cause of it.

Before anyone comments I don’t have any children so yes I know it is easier for me but this post is for those who are on the same boat as me. You signed that right away once you had kids (which is the main reason I am waiting till I am a very good position in life to have them)

I know this is satire but I would definitely play a mode like this. I may only be 20 but a 10 hour shift plus nearly 2 hour train rides kill me

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu

I actually have both a deck and a switch. I’m just too tired before and after work to play on my commute.

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu

A good game should present a fair challenge but also not explicitly just waste your time. I like difficulty but when I feel my time is being wasted I just quit.

Play a lot of jrpgs, I understand that too well. My playthrough of persona 5 has been going since the beginning of this year and I’m hardly halfway through the story

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu

This isn’t a new game only issue tho. Plenty of games waste your time wether it came out this year, 10, 20, 30 years ago. It can be moreso worse in the past due to limits in game design such as only saving at set checkpoints (or even saving at all if you go back far enough)

My situation is lucky not the worst. I am currently going to a technical school for medical work. And when I actually am at the place I work in it’s hardly “working” much at all, a good number of days I literally can watch an movie between cases.

Honestly most of the feeling dead is the commute, which unfortunately I don’t have many options for, can’t drive plus no other job I find offers nearly as much as I make (coupled with the fact that this quite literally the only job of its kind in the area).

I also get along very well with my team (literally no drama) and management is pretty nonexistent and we all take a firm stand when they do.

I very much appreciate the concern however

Let’s Game It Out is a gem to watch whenever he uploads.

Zelda is definitely a pretty mid tier open world game, both botw and tolk but it gets a pass cause it’s Zelda. And it’s pretty fun as well in terms of abilities and combat

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu

Another thing for Temtem, it just launched a f2p battle only version of the game if you just want the pvp

One mans trash is another’s treasure.

For every crappy shovelware game at least on person will have fond memories and see it as a classic.

This was my first video of his, I loved it. The idea of space in a game is really interesting to me though so that might make me biased

Yeah his style ain’t for everyone. Normally not a fan of filler unless its done in a way like how it was edited

Can we not become subreddit by posting this shitty screenshots trying to justify our reasons? Just share your media and enjoy it.

This game gets universal praise and I’d love to play it but as a PC gamer I refuse to as I wouldn’t want to support a dev who not only never does sales but raises the price because of “inflation”

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu

A game going up in price is fair from early access to release. This is a typical concept and an expected one for the reason you stated, the company makes a promise that it will be fully released.

To me the issue is the inflation price increase that most recently happened. Typically when a digital good releases in a finished state, it tends to stay at a max price. 30 USD is what Factorio decided on. Then it’s up to 35. Sure its had updates since the full release but why should I have to pay more then the full release price because I waited?

Typically sales are the reward for those who wait. Factorio seems to be the opposite, those who wait pay more. Inflation is real I understand, but this is also a digital good that has infinite supply. I as a consumer want to buy a game, and I can’t tell what the content changed from this 1.0 to the 1.1 since I haven’t played it. It probably is justifiable for the 5 bucks increase, but the consumer doesn’t know that. I just know this game I want, was 30 bucks and now it’s 35 and still hasn’t been on sale.

The reward for getting a full release game before a sale is to play it early. You aren’t losing the value of your purchase because I got it for 30% off. You got to play it early, and I waited for a price that I felt willing to pay. (The you is referring to people in general, not you specifically)

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu

Because when you buy it now for $35 right now, you get more for your money than what I got years ago for $25. Even ignoring the additional content and polishing, you’re also getting the benefit of all the testing and bug reporting by early adopters, as well as the bug fixing by the developers.

Is that not the opposite? Sure I get less buggy version, but you also have how many years to play compared to me. And you are getting the same game I am when I buy it. You eventually get that content, which one could say is added value to the 25 bucks vs the 35 I spend. You got 10 bucks of content from free essentially.

This is just the wrong mindset. Why would the developer, publisher, valve, or anyone else want to reward you for not buying their product?

It’s not the publisher rewarding me. The reward comes from me waiting and getting a cheaper game then those who bought it earlier. As you state

so ideally they would set the price individually for each customer based on the highest amount that customer is willing to pay. Sales after a while are a mechanism for this.

If a game isn’t worth X amount of dollars to me then I will wait till the game is Y amount of dollars. If the game never does then I never buy it, meaning the publishers lose, not me.

Sentinian, 11 miesięcy temu (edited 11 miesięcy temu)

No, you’re forgetting the fact that when I bought it, I didn’t know what I’ll be getting in the future. I lucked out with Factorio, but it could happen that the devs just stopped working on it, I didn’t know at the time.

That’s the risk you paid for. My criticism is price increase after full launch. If early access game goes up in price when it fully releases that is a different thing.

Who do you think sets the price, if not the publisher?

The publisher sets the price. They put a game on sale to make more money. I buy the game on sale. I get the game as the reward. The publisher gets money they wouldn’t have otherwise.

And yet, it’s not the publishers complaining about it online.

I’m a random person who has no reputation to defend. I could just as easily start over online and nothing would hurt me. The publisher has a reputation to keep. They need to keep making money. Other then that, complaining is the way to for the consumer to get thoughts out about practices. I don’t like a game going up in price due to “inflation” and a game never going on sale therefor I will communicate that.

This appears closer to something like steam’s remote play together, where you can connect to local multiplayer games with streaming. You could use it as a sort of GeForce Now service, but it wouldn’t be the best way to do it.
