Developer of New Postal Game Shuts Down Studio After Game Was Announced, Then Canceled Over Gen AI Allegations - IGN (www.ign.com)

The studio behind the Postal franchise just announced that it will be publishing a brand new Postal game, to be developed by Goonswarm Games. Unfortunately, it even more recently announced it would be cancelling said game, due to accusations that Goonswarm had used generative AI in its development.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond feels like a game stuck between two worlds. When it’s emulating the series’ past, Beyond is an entertaining, if overly conservative, sequel. However, as the shadowy corridors make way for open-world fetch quests, and Halo-style expeditions with AI companions, it’s left feeling like a diluted experience that doesn’t fully deliver on the spirit of earlier entries.

exactly what everyone was worried about. it sounds like it’s still worth playing but doesn’t reach the highs of the series, and those open world bike sections look boring and unnecessary

At the same time i still would like to see some gameplay. The game was revealed in two years ago and we still don’t know how it plays

shame the sequel was so tedious and dull. Somehow they found a way to make the first one look like a masterpiece in comparison

Goat simulator and its sequels/DLCs. It’s a dumb shitpost game where you run around and create chaos but I enjoy it without any irony for some reason

A PC of similar performance is about $550

where did you get that? With the price increases of pc components in recent months, it’s more like $750+.

Definitely over 500$. Considering the statement it sounds like it will be at least 800 dollars.

2x8 GB RAM for 130 dollars? What the fuck? I knew theyve gotten more expensive recently but that stings.

This is not true, development has stalled the past few years because Riot demanded they port it to a new engine, which was why it got indefinitely delayed and eventually cancelled

Things were moving well before that. The original developers took back control of the project and are back on track

Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM?

What is the best current gaming laptop that comes with Linux pre-installed? I don’t want to “pay Microsoft” by buying a Windows-licensed machine. Please suggest the best value-for-money option (original retail price) with 32 GB or more of RAM. I’m willing to upgrade hardware myself, but I want a high-quality, durable...

Correction, don’t buy a cheap gaming laptop. There are plenty of ones like the lenovo legion and rog strix g16 that have good build quality and will last you years.

The ones with crappy plastic and overheat regularly are usually the ones under $1000

These sound absolutely amazing but it all depends on the price.

if the Steam controller is on par with a new 8bitdo then I would definitely pick it up.

The steam machine sounds intriguing but there is already a big market for mini PCs and I don’t know if consumers would go out of their way to buy a steam PC box. I’m most skeptical about this one

Steam Frame looks fantastic but I really hope it’s cheap enough to compete with the Meta Quest 3 and isn’t just another ~$1000 headset for enthusiasts

people can still just buy a $500 mini PC and install Linux on it

I think the mass market would still rather buy a console, so I assume most people interested in the steam machine specifically want a PC box. Now that I looked at the specs it doesn’t seem that powerful, and I doubt it will be cheaper than a PS5.

Day 478 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Today’s game is R.E.P.O. Me and some friends have been playing the latest update. We saw there were some changes made along with some QOL features added at the suggestion of the community which we were excited for. It’s kind of nice to see a developer as active within the community as they are. I feel like all the stories i...

Is it worth playing the new update for new content or should I wait a bit longer? idk if there’s enough new content to tell friends to get on.

Why would anyone be excited for a series that now peaked 21 years ago, and has only had 1 other release in that time?

I understand why youre not interested and I also don’t care for it, but it’s disingenuous to say it isn’t one of the most hyped games of all time. The first trailer has 268 million views on youtube and that’s only on the official channel. People are excited.

as a ps3 exclusive that wasn’t even close in popularity but yes most of ds1 was copied from demon’s souls

Minecraft is removing code obfuscation in Java Edition (www.minecraft.net)

Minecraft: Java Edition has been obfuscated since its release. This obfuscation meant that people couldn’t see our source code. Instead, everything was scrambled – and those who wanted to mod Java Edition had to try and piece together what every class and function in the code did....

from what I understand mod loaders will need to remove the part where they deobfuscate code then translate mods. this update will break modloaders for a while but in the end it should simplify the process and make modding easier.

I doubt microsoft even knows what luanti is
