All we need is some way to guarantee valve doesn’t become public.

I am hoping for aperture science to find a immortality solution for Gabe.

Oh I see I see… that’s why they made current air vent smell so enticing, so when they release it we all go to smell it.

Well I would expect some patches at least for fallout 3 as that was more broken with current PCs but who knows.

XTornado, 9 miesięcy temu

The updates are still annoying but yeah it’s better than nothing. Of course there are some releases with the complete games all patched but those are rare and usually special/limited editions.

Unless they are overclocking the developers I doubt it.

There is a video already from the Nintendo direct so you can see already how it looks graphical wise.

Oh I don’t think they imply they will cover the costs. More like the only ones to know exactly the installs will be them, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo , and that’s why is done this way. Also to simplify the billing as well they already pay them for putting the game in their respective stores in one way or another.

Of course they could put a remote call that notified back to them in the game engine… and probably will work this way for PC, but probably the console companies might not be too happy about it.

15 here.

Ugh… the last part is still happening? Like are the new CPUs also so hot or whatever would somebody call it?

I am tempted to build a new PC all AMD for costs alone although the AM4 probably won’t last as long as the Am3 did sadly. But the summer is already terrible with my Intel… no need for more heat.

Idk is funny, maybe there should be like /c/piracy_humor like the existing one for programming, /c/programming_humor.

The star map? Aren’t the complains about the planets maps? I don’t see what are the issues with the star map .

XTornado, 9 miesięcy temu

Well with planet map I actually meant the local map, sorry for the confussion.

I mean even if they hadn’t announced, it’s Payday it was expected. Fuck it I even prefer this, I am surprised companies do this, now we know what is on it and what is coming and if is worth it buying it now or not. The alternative is finding out when you already bought the game.

Nah… I would guess a remaster or something at some point. The skull&bones game has been dead for a long time…they will release it as they legally have to…but they will not give a crap after.

I hope I am wrong but I see the next generation as completely discless specially if this current generation discless versions sold good enough. The only exception could be Nintendo.

Of course they might require some deals with stores or just sell themselves the consoles online… Because the stores want to sell games, they might still sell peripherals and redeemable cards for money or maybe CD keys… No idea tough, but if the benefits fall they might say “Nah I am not selling your console if games aren’t sold here”.

But how long will this last? I am not so sure that the next generation they could not get away with just digital versions not taking discs (or equivalent). The no discs versions of this generation, not just are for having a cheaper version is also a test to see how feasible could be in the future.

I mean that already is a thing on PC, although there are other reasons for it like the low adoption of bluray / DRMs / etc. Physical is non-existent except some really rare case. Even when some games are sold DRM free on GoG they aren’t sold in discs or USBs or similar.

That happens in Skyrim? But I remember videos of people suing fast travel after shooting from really far a way, like crazy away and then the arrow arriving where they fast traveled. Which fascinated me as I didn’t expect the game to track it.

I mean… Usually in this cases once they charge you you can still ask for a refund as long as it hasn’t passed a lot of days but yeah I agree is shit.

They are usually fund-inducing bugs which are the best kind of bugs.

I mean is Bethesda and for what is seen there will main quest and so on… Yes there will be random generation for random planets or sections not designed for those quests, and for random quests like Skyrim random quests… But I wouldn’t say like No Man’s Sky, it should be rpg (at Bethesda way, not like Baldurs Gate of course) with a more defined story and so on, characters, etc. Of course I haven’t touched No Man’s Sky on years… So maybe they have something for that now?

XTornado, 10 miesięcy temu

Well…depends on what you want to do I guess. I do not own it but you can do stuff for sure…

Complete? No it isn’t and never will be as they want to do crazier and crazier stuff and keep asking money in a way or another…

Overpromise Underdeliver And Repeat again with a new feature, new ships or whatever that requires a new payment.

Yeah… 76, seems a case study.

I mean the only reason to get the SS is and was the much cheaper price, being digital only was part of it but not the only thing or main thing as at the end is less powerful.

A digital version like the PS5 would have been much more expensive, like removing the disc reader it’s not like much saving. So at the end I doubt a lot of people that got the SS would have got it if this model was a thing tbh.

XTornado, 10 miesięcy temu

They are usually more expensive too tbh.

I see where you are going with this… But let’s be clear this is not an attempt by them to make you fail at fixing it, but an attempt to avoid manipulations for jailbreaking/bypassing it’s security and block piracy attempts. That said yes, that has consequences for the repairability. And that maybe, I am not expert, there might be better ways to handle this.

I just need them to confirm existing cartridges work and I am there buying it day one…

Yeah but still there will be less work, eventually they will generate new voices not related to nobody, yeah in some cases if they want the fandom of or popularity of a famous person yeah that will still be needed as you say, but for generic NPCs? An AI generated voice that is a new person in a way will be enough, so less work for voice actors for sure.
