Have they? IMO Super Mario Odyssey is the #1 Mario game ever made (Super Mario World being #2). And Wonder is pretty good. Heck, even tbr 3d remake collection thing was pretty nice, as far as “remastered” releases go.

Things have changed quite a bit since then.

I have great memories of Skyrim. And FO3. And New Vegas. And Fallout 4. And Fallout 76 actually got not bad. And Elder Scrolls: Online had one of my favorite quest chains in a game. And…

Starfield didn’t have modding, but was it an embarrassingly buggy title that hasn’t innovated on anything since Fallout 3?

What does that have to do with the comment you replied to?

Also why would it be annoying if people say a good game is a good game and it is warranted?

It’s like people on this thread have some pathological need to complain about SOMETHING.

OK, that’s true for a few places, but why is it true in the majority of casss where people are buying the ROG?

What’s the advantage of the mini PCs over a relatively cheap Android TV with the Steam Link app or even an old Steam Link hardware?

What’s the hardware you’re using?

I have been doing local streaming from my gaming PC to devices around tbe house (using mostly Steam and Moonlight) for nearly a decade.

I just find the steam stuff maddeningly buggy (setups that worked a month ago suddenly start having some new issue, usually Steam Input or otherwise controller-related). But when things work, it’s fantastic. Especially for living room gaming with friends (or my kid)

No, a bunch of people here just need to be outraged about something all the time, and pessimistic about everything.

Nothing can ever be even modestly positive. Everything - everything - has to be bad and negative all the time. If it was a cute puppy video, there’d be a bunch of comments about how puppy farms are evil and etc.

It’s exhausting.

Or Star Citizen, which may still never deliver (at least not a “launch” game and certainly not 80% of what has been promised).

Most time and most money spent developing a game ever so far.

Yeah, it’d be nice. Which is why they’ve pulled in $750m.

Unfortunately they’ve also spent $750m and they’re not even remotely close to what they promised.

We get what you meant. And I totally agree with the reaction.

Don’t know why that person is having a tough time getting it.

Ah yes. Unless it’s shitting on something, or something negative, it’s not news. Or something anyone would be interested in.

This was more a way for them to keep people putting in quarters at the arcades and selling machines to arcade ops.

It translated to some home games, but wasn’t the focus of putting out all these new versions. It made some sense at the time.

I felt the same way about E:D, and I also enjoyed No Man’s Sky quite a bit.

There is at least a couple of core storyline loops that I think are fairly engaging, besides just setting your own goals.

Yeah, for the most part ship flying is better in Elite. Especially travelling long distances. But I still enjoy it in NMS for the most part.

I heard also that even earlier than that, there was an E.T. game that may have been a bad cash grab. I doubt it had any serious impact, though.

1080p (docked). So you’d plan for 1080p.

But you’re actually probably at least partly right. I’m sure they’ve done at least some upscaling and stored at a higher res which may actually take up more space.

This is the way.

You’re trying so hard to do some edgy pessimistic thing and it’s pretty funny how bad you’re failing.

Man, Dune 2 was so innovative at the time. And I didn’t appreciate it enough (I was pretty young). I actually liked Dune 1 better at the time.

It’s also weird to me that you can draw a (almost) direct line from Dune 2 to World of Warcraft.

ripcord, rok temu

I mean, there was StarCraft 2 after it. And the Warcraft 3 remake thing. But yeah, they mostly lost interest (in anything that wasn’t just an absolute fucking printing press for money like WoW was)

ripcord, rok temu

?

They lost me when they started getting all serious. with the “named” seasons and Church as a tortured AI and whatever.

After that I’ve caught an occasional episode and PSA that were old-school stupid and funny; did it eventually go back to being that in general?

My wife still wishes they featured more Baby Blarg, she loved that guy.

Thanks for that!

They’ve been working on a sequel for quite a while, including doing regular hours-long YouTube videos although I’ve never followed closely enough to get a feel for how far along they are or what their plans really are. Most of the posts are pretty abstract and the videos seem mostly like futzing with assets and tweaking melee modes and things.

Tangent: SC2 is possibly my favorite game of all time for different reasons. And honestly I liked Star Control Origins a whole lot, for anyone who hasn’t played it but liked SC2. It’s rough and dirivitive in some ways, but excellent in others, and improves on a lot of things in SC2 (including a bunch of quality-of-life stuff). And the writing and voice acting and things is pretty good. Actually, 3 of my favorite races come from the game.

I guess I don’t. I would have assumed the team would have mentioned it. Especially if there was communication, but it moved forward to DMCA request anyway (i.e. there was a disagreement or something). But seems like the team would have responded pretty quickly.

But yeah, I don’t know for sure.

Still, it seems way more likely that Valve legal just went straight to DMCA.
