I see

Why'd they put so much effort into the Half Life bit.

seems like more effort was put into that than anything else.

[polar wren]

God I never knew it looked this Ass

Actual texture barf

No wonder palworld gained so much traction and hasn't died yet

Palworld had like 70,000-100,000 players today on steam alone

Nintendo needs to strip Pokemon from game freak

[near frost]

they probably realized they had no money left for the CG cyberspace sequence they had planned and someone figured out they could do machinima for real cheap

[polar wren]

Even looking at the better images of that game it still sucks. The best images of that game are comparable to the worst images from legend of Zelda totk, Luigi's Mansion, Kirby forgotten lands, and splatoon 3

Absolutely stunning quality games

[sacred iron]

Some atmospheric fog would go a long way

[empty ivy]

I honestly have zero idea how SV ended up looking as bad as it did.

SWSH at least in battle looked amazing.

[tribal crypt]

Game freak just exists to make new games as cheap as possible

[empty ivy]

I couldn't even properly close my eyes all I saw was flashes of purple and blue.

[brittle portal]

i feel like i'm gonna be mildly annoyed if i watch this.

yeah

https://x.com/VGC_News/status/1880983902564819361

...I have a response to this but it would almost certainly get me warned

[next rapids]

If that does happen I know where I'll be getting my games from

[austere sonnet]

so switch 2 is bigger and that’s all

[brittle portal]

has a different attachment method for the controllers, I think it has an extra USB-C port. It probably has some specs upgrades though they've not said anything about that yet.

[charred quail]

[brittle portal]

I can't imagine they'd go through the effort of making the entire thing slightly larger and not put at least slightly more powerful hardware in it, especially if they're gonna make games exclusive to it.

[next rapids]

they could get away with it probably

[latent moat]

That different attachment absolutely was a response to everyone jigging theirs

[next rapids]

nintendo can do whatever they want because if people want their games they have to buy a switch, buy their subscription, and pay the prices they set

[latent moat]

To easily access recovery mode so they could sideload a homebrew OS

[brittle portal]

i mean, they were experimenting with that kind of attachment method on the OG Switch, but couldn't get it working on there so they had the rails. I don't think they were anticipating jigging being a thing.

besides jigging isn't really a thing outside of like, Switch models from when it had just launched. I don't think they'd redesign the entire attachment method just to deal with something they already fixed.

[austere sonnet]

16 times the details

[ivory onyx]

16 times tons and what do you get?

[brittle portal]

I guess but I donno why they'd waste the effort in redesigning the entire thing if it just has the same hardware in it, making the concept of Switch 2 exclusive games extremely arbitrary.

[ivory onyx]

who could have seen this

[brittle portal]

Delta Force is one of the games of all time

[small relic]

Yeah I still feel the lameness of it. But fortifications is a decent upgrade. But still doesn't have the smooth battlefield feel. It's ok

[latent moat]

fortifications?

hmm.. I wonder where they got that from....

nah, it's a totally original idea that they thought up of

[small relic]

Bf5 fortifications has a better feel. BF is still the unmatched king of large scale warfare.

Community manager of palworld

[gentle plaza]

W tbh

more devs have to take a stance like this

[latent moat]

Pretty much no dev cares about exclusivity

They Want their games to be played by everyone, seriously

[gentle plaza]

I just don't understand why some people can't accept the fact that nobody cares about console wars for several years now lol

[latent moat]

People Forget that Arrowhead actually asked Sony once if they could have HD2 on Xbox too because they didn't want them to miss out

[gentle plaza]

I still have people messaging me like 'oh you play on Xbox? L exclusives PlayStation better' like.. I have a PS5 too? lmao

[latent moat]

Devs themselves don't care about exclusivity, apart from a spare few weird ones

[gentle plaza]

I just don't care about exclusives I play Battlefield and Sims for the most part 🤣

[latent moat]

Publishers do because they need them.

I mean that's a main reason why Kojima bought the death stranding IP back, he wanted to have the game on Xbox.

Only reason he's with Sony right now is because they're willing to write him blank checks for batshit crazy ideas he has for games essentially

[latent moat]

People like that have not emotionally matured

[gentle plaza]

I personally think PC gaming is better than everything, but I do respect my console friends
now people who argue about what's better are genuinely so immature sometimes, 90% of the time it's people older than me arguing about it too

[inland coral]

Ironically enough most console war discourse I see is literally just banter

If anything it’s some PC players who take it seriously

[ivory onyx]

but pc is superior

[gentle plaza]

don't even get me started on them

again, I believe PC is better than console, but I'm not going to sit and keyboard warrior my opinion 300 times because someone I don't even know likes console lol

[inland coral]

Yeah I’m on ps5 and I agree pc is a superior platform (except for convenience and cheaters which is literally a million dollar business for pc unfortunately)

[gentle plaza]

we love cheaters tho (yeah no we don't lmao)

that's a plague with no cure though unfortunately

[inland coral]

An eternal cat and mouse game

[gentle plaza]

although on the bright side, I'm yet to encounter a cheater in the newer Battlefield games

[inland coral]

The average toxic console player: swears at you in vc, maybe uses some slurs, that’s it

Average toxic pc player: hey you know what I’m actually just going to remote shut down your entire pc kid

[gentle plaza]

so far I've not run into any on PC

[gentle plaza]

you mean recites your entire address and also messes with your PC remotely? lol

GTA Online modders are capable of real life crime and it's genuinely concerning this is even possible, let alone the fact that people do it 😭

PC GTAO is a game I am staying far far away from for this reason

or GTA V for that matter

[inland coral]

And the old CoD PC ports are literally full retail priced security hazards just waiting for you to buy them

[gentle plaza]

there's other means of getting them

I personally buy DVD games just for display

but sometimes it's genuinely cheaper that way too

managed to snag World at War GFWL version on DVDROM for 5 bucks a while ago

game is 20 on steam iirc

[inland coral]

Oh sick

[gentle plaza]

and no, I don't need GFWL to play it

[inland coral]

I know there’s also sites that give cheap steam keys as well

[gentle plaza]

not particularly for CoD unfortunately

[inland coral]

Though idk if those are ethical or safe for the most part

[gentle plaza]

World at War retails higher than Steam at the legit resellers

the rest I stay away from

plus I question the legality of key resellers

they're 'legal' but I'd like to know where they get these keys lmao

especially for 20+ year old games

because if it's (albeit highly unlikely nowadays) a keygen goldmine then that's HIGHLY illegal lol

oh great, first BF4 wouldn't recognise my DLC now it won't even install it

sick

[inland coral]

I’m having a slightly similar problem on console

[gentle plaza]

I'm on Xbox and it just straight will not work

[inland coral]

Battle log recognizes that I have all of the DLCs on my PlayStation account. On the actual ps store I can only download like 2

[gentle plaza]

it's the opposite for me

I own all the DLCs, the in-game marketplace recognises this, but I can't launch DLC servers

also Final Stand for whatever reason refuses to install itself

[gentle plaza]

also, double check from Battlelog itself if you can download them

[inland coral]

I assume I’m able to do that while in game through the battle log menu?

[gentle plaza]

yeah

if you go to Store in the main menu

it'll list the expansions

[inland coral]

It’s literally the only reason I haven’t played bf4 in years because it’s so unmotivating how I literally still have my loadouts on dlc guns saved too and the game just won’t let me enable them

[gentle plaza]

if you click into it, it should let you download them

assuming they're stated as owned*

[gentle plaza]

I'm a Premium member and the game doesn't seem to recognise this so I get it 😂

'Secure a Premium Membership'

Premium Member since 2015

ah it is having an all-out stroke

I don't own anything apparently as far BF4 is concerned

[inland coral]

I’ll have to redownload bf4 but I’ll give it a shot if I can get battlelog to work

[gentle plaza]

Purchase Hardline, 1, 5, 2042, BF4 Premium, subscribe to EA Play

I own all of these lol

Gimme PPSh and Gewehr 43

[charred quail]

there are a whole lot of guns from blops cold war they could use but they are withholding them and dripping the content faucet

Particularly with the magazine placement

Hell it might be a combination of both honestly

[charred quail]

probably yeah

[austere sonnet]

That do be kinda pog

who knew the only problem with Bo6 was the fact that it didn't have an FAL in it.

...until today. Because Genki has absolutely delivered a love letter to arcade racing fans everywhere with TXR 2025.

• No always online
• No DRM
• Solid, single player arcade racing
• Beloved gameplay
• Almost bug free, for an early access title. That's unheard of in most cases.
• Amazing OST, made up of remixed tracks from previous games
• Insanely optimized game. They are using UE5 and yet you can run this game on a GTX 550ti. Dead serious.
• Steam Deck support + bindings
• So much, much, more.

extract from one of the steam reviews

$30 for all this and it's in early access

solid 30 hours worth of gameplay

worth it

[brittle portal]

And they actually have a plan for Early Access

like

hold on, a friend of mine posted it on another server

“The plan is to improve the quality of the game by making various improvements based on your feedback over the course of approximately 4 months of Early Access. Depending on how the progress of development goes throughout Early Access, we will decide and announce the full release of the game as soon as possible.”

-Genki

and also some mention of how much is in the game already

“Over 200 rival characters each with their own unique storyline have been implemented already. There will also be a total 50 playable cars, and over 180 kilometers worth of the Shuto Expressway to race upon.”

[latent moat]

[brittle portal]

Like, to me that's quite a bit for Early Access.

Games have launched with less, costing about as much.

[next rapids]

sounds cool but the driving looks super floaty judging by some videos i'm seeing

[brittle portal]

I mean, it's an arcade racer.

[next rapids]

i can't say need for speed looks the same despite also being arcade

it's like the car is gliding in txr

[brittle portal]

Probably will be something they'll address over the next few months in early access. It doesn't really bother me all that much tho.

Giving early access to a game as a bonus for preordering it is not a Steam exclusive thing, dude.

im told steam metrics are the only important thing for game health

Back in my day we only had 1 version of final fantasy 7 .. and you liked it

[latent moat]

how do I even get into FF

like 78 games and apparantly they're both connected and not connected at the same time

[viral swift]

None of the FF games are connected besides obvious sequels(X-2, XIII-2, LR, 7 Rebirth)

Start with whatever interests you

[latent moat]

what would you recommend I start with

A newer one like 15?

[vestal crystal]

7 is straight forward story while 15 is more open world

Has like fishing and stuff

[ivory onyx]

the biggest for me was.. wasnt FF a rpg game, then suddenly its an mmo

[wet sage]

One thing I'll say about ff7 remake is that the game expects you to know of the events of the original game. I missed out on some many references when I played it for the first time.

But still ff15, ff16 and ff7 remake are all good starting points. I like ff7 the most.

Doom dark ages has no multiplayer

[brittle portal]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Considering Doom 2016's MP was not that successful, and same with Eternal's, I am not surprised.

Doom is not a franchise people generally remember for multiplayer. That's Quake.

[cobalt spade]

Everything is multiplayer, so they can squeeze players' wallets with microtransactions

Gta online is so profitable, so rockstar scrapped 5 single player dlcs of gta 5

[lost sluice]

[vestal crystal]

Tlou2 also has it

the psn requirement is just a dll lol

there's a mod already that bypasses it for GOW ragnarok

it came out like 10min after the game launched on pc lmao

[lost sluice]

cant they ban you from the game if you dont run that dll tho

[latent moat]

ban?

it's not multiplayer

[lost sluice]

singleplayer games still got bans and stuff

if you temper with their files. depends on what security they got tho

[latent moat]

the amount of people that actually care to do it will be miniscule that they won't bother

besides, ragnarok has been out for months, no issues

[lost sluice]

alright

[latent moat]

afaik the way the mod works is that it basically tricks the game into thinking you're running it offline

even then if you're discovered I really don't think sony would go as far and 'ban' you

And by i mean complete its mean full of vehicles car , boat ,plane etc and dozen of way to complete objective

sleeping dogs is also an open world , u cant fly and stuff but the story and fighting system is way better

u can drive around by car tho

true crime streets of la is also a solid game, which is sleeping dogs predecessor but its abit old

the new TXR has simultaneously one of the cleanest and best UI I've seen in a game but also probably one of the worst ones in terms of navigation

They intend on you playing with a controller but you navigate menus with a cursor

Sliders are so sensitive too, but also simultaneously precise in some menus so you end up needing to drag them. It's all so inconsistent

But it is early access ig, very first version

Idk the first one maybe

[ivory onyx]

the lack of fuel management thats like super arcade but if their goal is just pure fun with the sandbox features ok i guess

[polar wren]

It's not much on traversing risky areas compared to the last game

More on fixing those areas

[shut wigeon]

Reinstalled cod and had this wholesome interaction with a stranger

[ivory onyx]

legit the longest ive seen someone go with out running into an enemy in a cod clip

[shut wigeon]

I don’t play cod only reinstalled cos of the new zombie map but I also tried out the two new multiplayer maps

[vestal crystal]

Water is wet

[indigo gyro]

one of the best action game of 2024 imo waiting for its steam release

[latent moat]

2025 already off to a wild start

[lost kelp]

@austere sonnet How you feel about Nuevo Mexico being cancelled

[ripe pike]

That race may be hard as well if you don't lock in

wild if true

Doesn't pay employees for over a year while he buys himself a vision pro

[cobalt goblet]

el gato

[ripe pike]

U still playin BO6 ?

[next rapids]

it really is great, feels like i'm playing nier automata again

[indigo gyro]

i have only seen combat and that combat is made for me and i listened its soundtracks i avoided story but i heard story is inspired from bible so that is great news for me

[cobalt goblet]

stellar blade is from the bible?

jesus?

[indigo gyro]

inspired and i heard about it i am not sure

[next rapids]

yeah it definitely takes major inspiration from some themes in the bible

names make it pretty obvious

i don't want to say it copied nier automata but the story seems pretty similar, just a little less in depth

[indigo gyro]

eve adam xion yes it does

[indigo gyro]

devs are big fan of nier they even did collab

[next rapids]

yeah it's great

also holy fuck this fishing minigame is so good

one of the best uses of dualsense i've seen

[indigo gyro]

how is the difficulty

very hard
medium

easy

?

[next rapids]

i'm playing on normal and it's okay

harder than the usual hack and slash, a bit souls-y, but i wouldn't say super hard

[indigo gyro]

it is medium

[next rapids]

you can get your ass handed to you if you don't learn the combat properly though

[indigo gyro]

then

[next rapids]

also the skins are pretty good

[empty ivy]

You can vote for games on GOG for the preservation thing

If they get mech 4 to 2 CD versions to work fully I'm gonna be so happy.

IT'S HERE

[cobalt goblet]

BUMBOCLATTT

[polar wren]

Is that a gas giant?

IT IS

[cobalt goblet]

NMS is one of my fav games, it literally helped me in astrology somewhat.

[polar wren]

WE GOT GAS GIANTS

[next rapids]

sure hope you mean astronomy

[polar wren]

And unlike starfield the gas giant in nms are explorable

Or that was I just saw

[cobalt goblet]

you go inside

[next rapids]

they definitely didn't seem to be inside it

and i would hope they weren't

nms isn't completely unrealistic yet

maybe i should try getting back into the game

[ivory onyx]

you can explore very briefly

[polar wren]

They updated the terrain and lighting

[indigo gyro]

loading screens is very explorable in starfield

[polar wren]

Lmao

The only loading screen in nms that annoys me is the start up loading screen

It always takes so long

[next rapids]

well how else are they gonna load in all 5 quintillion planets

[polar wren]

And there's another where you jump to the next system but at least it doesn't give you any black screens

Yeah no black loading screens
