New FPS Built Using Doom Tech Is Better Than Most AAA Shooters (kotaku.com) angielski

Things aren’t looking good for me. I’m a few levels into Selaco, a new FPS out now on Steam, and I’m stuck behind a bar as a group of sci-fi soldiers unload their rifles and shotguns into my hiding spot. I’m also low on health. So yeah, a bad spot to be in. I take a deep breath and try something....

drislands,

Irrelevant. This game is purportedly built using the original doom engine, while almost all other FPS games since Doom are designed with similar mechanics.

drislands,

Great point. I saw an interesting video recently that touched on this exact issue:

As graphics increase in quality, the desire for developers to fill spaces with clutter grows – which makes it harder to make meaningful levels with thoughtful design.

drislands,

Looks like I’m in the minority, but I subscribe to Nintendo Switch Online. My wife and I enjoy the extra Mario kart courses and I personally enjoy the N64 virtual console.

drislands,

That seems… statistically unlikely.

drislands,

Then I take it back! Statistical likelihood increased!

drislands,

Capitalist utopia? Isn’t the whole point that it’s a Libertarian utopia?

drislands,

Don’t get me wrong, the only Libertarianism I’ve ever known is intertwined with Capitalism. But they aren’t the same thing, and I always read BioShock as being a take on Libertarianism specifically.

drislands,

FYI l: That’s the CEO of Arrowhead, who made the game.

drislands,

It’s unfortunately classic Lemmy. Every post has at least one person commenting something along the lines of “Why would anyone like this?” as opposed to, y’know, actually engaging with the content.

drislands,

Awesome writeup. I had heard that some very special individuals were trying to paint this company as “pro-woke”, and therefore any game they touched should be avoided – and that’s obviously going to be nonsense, but it’s good to see the full story.

drislands,

They’re not worried about pirates, they’re worried about nude mods. It’s still idiotic, but it is consistent.

drislands,

I don’t disagree. But the inciting incident was when an official Street Fighter tournament went awry when the person hosting left on a nude Chun Li mod. I imagine they’re specifically trying to prevent that from happening ever again.

drislands,

I actually just finished playing Dredge. It was a lot of fun, though not as horrifying as I had hoped.

drislands,

Do you happen to have a link? I’d be interested in reading more.

drislands,

Yeah I don’t think anyone realized that everyone got the same word. Can’t blame em for babbling about it, but it’s a major bummer because now I’m obviously not going to play.

drislands,

Take a look at COCOON. The mechanics are brilliant and I really wish it was longer. Might be right up your alley!

drislands,

It’s a first person puzzle game. You move around the world interacting with various elements, such as laser redirection, to obtain the keys needed to progress. There’s an interesting story going on at the same time, which although I didn’t find it super compelling, it was good enough to keep my attention to the end.

The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 25-09-2023 (lemmy.world) angielski

Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!...

drislands,

I just finished Chants of Sennaar. It’s a puzzle game that has you deducing out glyphic languages from context to find solutions, and it’s super satisfying.

drislands,

I’ll take a look! Thanks for the rec!

drislands,

I’ll add that my understanding is that you aren’t even prompted to choose a pronoun in-game – it defaults to one or the other based on your character creation choices, and you can then change it if you want to. It’s literally a non-issue.
