[mild flicker]

fully explorable

[dry copper]

Destiny is made for people that listen to Duran Duran ironically

[frank ibex]

is there a channel here for like guild recruitment

nvm

WHY AM I LOOKING FOR GUILD RECRUITMENT HERE

[mild flicker]

its more like corp recruitment

[frank ibex]

😭😭😭

forgot this is nms

[mild flicker]

players can establish corporations

eve is literally capitalism simulator in space

[frank ibex]

is the econ there like

booming?

[mild flicker]

yes

[dry copper]

You know what else is capitalism simulator? Every economy that doesn't force labor on the poor.

[mild flicker]

the economy is the backbone of the game

no economy no ships

cuz players have to build the ships

[frank ibex]

like for a example a ship cost 2b

[mild flicker]

mine for the materials for the building process

[frank ibex]

is it like that?

and the materials is like

2m for 1?

[mild flicker]

lets say u need 50,000 materials to build 1 ship

you can either mine all of them and refine them and build the ship yourself

or buy the ship from the market where players already built it

and sell it

[frank ibex]

ohh

alright

[obtuse reef]

Did somebody say EVE Online?

[dry copper]

no

Eve Offline

[mild flicker]

or u can build ships yourself and sell them for profit too

its up to you and what u want to do

[obtuse reef]

Correct

[mild flicker]

nah we talking about spreadsheets online

[frank ibex]

so its like albion?

[mild flicker]

albion?

[obtuse reef]

It’s just a pain in the ass to build anything bigger than a frigate

[frank ibex]

search it up

[mild flicker]

albion online?

[frank ibex]

econ,politics,and guild vs guild is pretty much the same

[dry copper]

Albion...The game where you can build your economy and watch it get robbed.

[frank ibex]

ya

[mild flicker]

i dont play conventional mmorpgs with swords and such

except for oldschool runescape

[dry copper]

Join a guild or get fucked - Albion Online

[mild flicker]

and ultima online although i rarely touch it

[frank ibex]

mist is a thing now

u can do full solo run

ill try eve

if i got fucked up ill go buy nms

[mild flicker]

they are two different games keep that in mind

[frank ibex]

thx for answering my questions vex

[frank ibex]

ya

[mild flicker]

and for eve, get ready to learn a lot and spend many hours on it

[obtuse reef]

Yup

[mild flicker]

have fun (3

[frank ibex]

im just gonna troll in eve

or do sum fun

[mild flicker]

join a casual corp that focuses on real life

[dry copper]

No such thing as real life

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5ebkj9x5Ko

[mild flicker]

oh shit im getting attacked in eve

[dry copper]

Happy Monday btw

[mild flicker]

brb in a few mins

[dry copper]

My first experience in Eve wasn't horrible, tbh

[obtuse reef]

I can fly a dreadnought

[dry copper]

I was a noob learning to mine and a group of two ships came to rob me, so I flew away...and a giant consortium of ships came to my rescue.

I hung out with them for about a half hour shooting the shit

[mild flicker]

when did u join eve

[dry copper]

They were a mining guild

Or whatever that was called

It was a very long time ago

I thanked them for their help and uninstalled the game

never touched it again

[mild flicker]

one hornet 2 pirates down

[dry copper]

Too many cheaters in PVP.

[obtuse reef]

Behold, the thing I can fly

[mild flicker]

hehe

[frank ibex]

u can get robbed?

[obtuse reef]

Lol, they physically can’t cheat

[dry copper]

Robbed by way of shot to shit

[mild flicker]

just dock when u see a scanning probe approaching you

ez

[obtuse reef]

If they can you can file a support ticket and they’ll get permanently banned

And you’ll get your ship back

[mild flicker]

lets talk abt star citizen

[dry copper]

There are cheaters in eve online.

[mild flicker]

did u see the new server meshing?

[obtuse reef]

Chances are they just did a ton of damage quickly.

I’ve never seen someone cheat in combat

[mild flicker]

ive never seen someone cheat

in eve

[dry copper]

That's not even a remotely left field statement to make. The devs have openly stated they make fighting cheaters a priority.

[obtuse reef]

What exactly did they do, if you remember

[dry copper]

What are you talking about? I didn't say the people that beat me were cheating.

[obtuse reef]

Oh

You brought up cheaters tho

[frank ibex]

yo btw in eve is it one big ass server?

[obtuse reef]

Yes

[dry copper]

I don't PVP because of the prospect of cheaters in competitive gaming

I've met way too many sweat lords and sore losers who go to cheating where competition is part of the gig.

Eve is a perfect game except for the always online PVP part.

[mild flicker]

mhm

[dry copper]

I'd have started playing Eve long ago if PVE toggle were a thing

[obtuse reef]

It’s a big selling point of the game, the freedom to do whatever you want

Sets it pretty far apart from any other MMOs

[mild flicker]

ive never seen any other game lik eve

like*

[dry copper]

That's why I don't play it, but also don't necessarily say it's a bad game 😛

Different strokes for different folks

[obtuse reef]

Ofc

[mild flicker]

im fine with the pvp aspect

i avoid it since im not a fan of it but it makes it much scarier to go into nullsec

[obtuse reef]

I’m ass at PvP, but hopefully I can get better at it

Especially due to the fact that I can fly and also own a dreadnought

[dry copper]

Eve players would be royally fucked if their ships didn't log off when they did

[obtuse reef]

They don’t

If you have a combat timer your ship won’t log off

[dry copper]

Their ships can still be destroyed when they log off?

[obtuse reef]

Yes

[mild flicker]

i wonder what it feels like for your electricity to black out mid game

[obtuse reef]

It’s to prevent combat logging

[dry copper]

I'm talking about an hour or two afterwards

Not a 5 minute timer

[obtuse reef]

That’s different

[mild flicker]

that would really suck

[obtuse reef]

If your game randomly crashes the game will log you off

I know this because it’s happened to me

[dry copper]

The idea of existing in a persistent world of PVP that lets you basically toggle off the PVP by virtue of logging off and not having to suffer the long term side effects of your conduct...

[austere lance]

This is why so many people have avoided Sea of Thieves too, lol

[mild flicker]

what if someone wants to combat log and they have a special program that crashes the game

[obtuse reef]

Well, you can report them for cheating

[dry copper]

It's not cheating

[mild flicker]

oh well

[obtuse reef]

It’s an exploit

[dry copper]

Oh that

yeah if you are crashing people on purpose, that's exploit

[obtuse reef]

Which the devs have explicitly stated that they do not allow that

The devs are actually pretty involved in the community, which is really nice

I actually think they might be one of the games where the devs are more involved

[dry copper]

Eventually they will be threading a very fine needle in defining what is and isn't cheating...with the way game development goes

To date they've had their controversies and I think have handled them well

At least they aren't banning entire clans that they don't like losing too..../s

Yeah...I just mocked Snail Games

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fHmDoqiUrY

When anyone questions why Ark struggles, I point to conduct like this.

On top of treating customers like shit, they take out huge loans that they can't possibly pay back in a reasonable amount of time

Eat so much interest that the entire enterprise of their business is built to fail

[idle saffron]

Yeah but dinosaurs are cool

[dry copper]

Ror

[idle saffron]

Would like to see a good dev do a dino survival game

[dry copper]

Does it need to be a fps?

What about isometric dino?

[idle saffron]

If it's really good and not turn based

[hollow perch]

Believe it or not, Rare is actually about to address this issue! I'm December they're gonna give players the ability to have private servers with their friends for those who hate PVP

[idle saffron]

Get out

Peer to peer or hosted?

[hollow perch]

Hosted I think

[dry copper]

Then they'll see PVE servers skyrocket filled with people who don't pvp and people who want to grief pve'ers out of some righteous pvp cause

I hope these servers will have whitelisting

[hollow perch]

Does peer to peer mean couch co-op or something like Minecraft realms?

[idle saffron]

I don't know about Minecraft realms - it would mean that the host would have to be online for people to play there

[snow zenith]

@dreamy zinc Home in about an hour, hoss

[dry copper]

Wouldn't the host just run a server client?

[snow zenith]

https://tenor.com/view/heavy-flamer-heresy-purge-warhammer40k-lightning-claws-gif-16488791

[dry copper]

I'd hope they wouldn't need to have a player client to operate a server

[austere lance]

They're limited servers, unfortunately. You earn gold and XP at a reduced rate and you have a level cap on all the factions so you can't hit Pirate Legend

[dry copper]

I see how eve online makes its money, with microtransactions

[austere lance]

And you can't buy a Captained ship

[dry copper]

Is Omega some sort of eve subscription service?

[bleak void]

Yes it is

[bleak void]

You can pay with real life money or in game money (isk)

[dreamy zinc]

https://tenor.com/view/hans-flammenwerfer-get-ze-gif-15834368

[dry copper]

What is the conversion rate of $ to ingame currency?

[bleak void]

About 15$ to 1b Isk last time I checked.

I haven't played Eve for a few years.

[dry copper]

1 billion?

[bleak void]

yes 🙂

[dry copper]

That means you'd have to be a billionaire in the game to afford to pay for an omega sub

With ingame currency

[bleak void]

Its not as bad as it sounds

[austere lance]

@hollow perch

[bleak void]

A million is easy to get. Several hundred million a bit more difficult.

[dry copper]

Sounds like the economy is super inflated.

[bleak void]

I reguarly had 40b+ when I played

It is

[dry copper]

Super inflation devalues everything across the board. Are they planning on making USSR simulator?

[hollow perch]

Dang, guess I didn't read the fine print 😭

[bleak void]

I mean - there were rumors the Russians were using Eve for money laundering.

It's been a while since I played, so please take what I am saying with a grain of salt regarding the amounts.

[dreamy zinc]

https://tenor.com/view/peaky-blinders-gif-26516992

[bleak void]

With the more advanced ships (super carriers), it was pretty easy to make 100m an hour. But I believe they nerfed that really hard.

[dry copper]

I'm not even talking about russia necessarily...only the economic impact of super inflation I can remember (post war USSR)

[dreamy zinc]

that's not just eve tho

that's any MMO

[bleak void]

The economy is player controlled. So play the players! lol

[dry copper]

The only way to balance an economic model that fucked is to force regulations

[bleak void]

Really? I honestly did not know that.

[dreamy zinc]

gold bots

[bleak void]

Eve is less special in my mind now

[dreamy zinc]

the fck you think those are

[dry copper]

Gold bots...Don't even remind me

[dreamy zinc]

bots in general

[bleak void]

Fair enough

[dry copper]

It used to be you couldn't join a new MMO without in the first three days having someone selling gold or leveling services

Broadcasting it on global

[dreamy zinc]

still is like this

[bleak void]

I know about them, obvs. But I had never attributed it to the Russians in particular. In Eve, it was very specific (not to say others werent doing it)

[dreamy zinc]

RS has them still

[dry copper]

RS?

[dreamy zinc]

vist GE in RS and you'll see

Runescape

[dry copper]

I believe if the developers decided to undercut the gold sellers and offer the same service for less, they could drive those markets into bankruptcy

and they wouldn't even need to make it a permanent offer

Walmart the market

Once it is eliminated, remove the offer

[dreamy zinc]

WOW did that

and some other dirty shit

[dry copper]

If it comes back, add it back

[snow zenith]

https://tenor.com/view/warhammer-gif-26209389

[dry copper]

Ultimately the service survives on there being a consumer base interested and I have no qualms with bankrupting it in a PVE game

[snow zenith]

Man if the game didn't ask for 400 more coins I woulda bought the Krieg pack and made a Veteran

Alas, 'twas not to be

[snow zenith]

If there's a Maccabian pack I'm giving them my kidney

[dreamy zinc]

i should really start reading up on that stuff tho

[snow zenith]

Yes

[dreamy zinc]

but reading Dune

[snow zenith]

[dreamy zinc]

[dry copper]

Speaking of Noir...Can you imagine Noir on UE5 with Omniverse running it?

[dreamy zinc]

yes

still 30 fps

[dry copper]

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/omniverse/apps/audio2face/

[dreamy zinc]

i couldn't paly NOIR due to headaches

[dry copper]

?

[dreamy zinc]

idk what they did with the FPS

[dry copper]

Headaches from the game?

Oh

[dreamy zinc]

yes

[dry copper]

You had it locked to 30?

[dreamy zinc]

first game i had that issue

game is locked at 30

or was

[dry copper]

I say f that and take the games ability to control frames away from it

Give that authority to your GPU

Nvidia Control Panel

Mind you the developers of noir locked the frames because of bugs in the games engine

[dreamy zinc]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uVHrY3xRo0

[dry copper]

So increasing the frames...expect your car to drive twice as fast

[dreamy zinc]

i know

[dry copper]

It's a silly situation. Think there will ever be a noir 2?

I don't understand why there isn't already

The game was a fricken hit

Oh wait nm I see why

It's a rockstar game

[dreamy zinc]

the atmo and stuff was great tho

[dry copper]

They're incompetent

[winter yew]

What game is for people that listen to Rick Astley unironically? Love hearing that guy sing

[dreamy zinc]

R* inst incompetent

Take 2 is

everyone confuses that shit

R* is dev

[dry copper]

It's not the development side...it's the money side

[dreamy zinc]

Take 2 == money bags

Take 2 owns R*

[dry copper]

High on life

[dreamy zinc]

and Take 2 CEO wage is tied to micro transactions
https://www.axios.com/2022/05/06/take-two-ceos-big-microtransaction-bonus

[winter yew]

Dang, I don’t agree with the creators of that game or Rick and Morty though.

Maybe another choice lol

[dry copper]

What are you talking about, agree with?

[snow zenith]

Not shocking

[dry copper]

What statements have they made?

[winter yew]

Freaking a, that’s outrageous

[dreamy zinc]

so please for the love of god stop balming R*

[snow zenith]

Large part of EA's revenue is microtransactions

[dry copper]

[dreamy zinc]

even with that BS CEO breathing down their neck they create great games

[winter yew]

They’re pieces of crap, and this isn’t the channel for me to delve into that

[winter yew]

[dreamy zinc]

Fifa yes

[dreamy zinc]

did they showcase stuff like this back in Crysis 3 days

[dry copper]

I love metahuman

I've been following metahuman since its inception

[snow zenith]

Complaints about microtransactions are more and more nostalgic than anything. Complaints about fair gameplay, state of a game & microtransactions are more relevant.
They've been here to stay for years, that's not about to change. The degree a game is built around them is what's valid discussion.

[dreamy zinc]

oh i know

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dESLRuaii40

i loved this one

[dry copper]

Question: Has NVidia always owned metahuman? I don't remember it being associated when I first saw the project over a decade ago

It was a stand alone software

[dreamy zinc]

im rememeber some facial animations way back

[austere lance]

Microtransactions aren't even micro anymore, all these friggin AAA multiplayer games are selling tons of $20+ skin pack bundles on top of battle passes 😭

[dreamy zinc]

i mean i don't give 2 shits about skins

[dry copper]

Ah here it is., I am mistaken it wasn't metahuman

It was MakeHuman

[dreamy zinc]

the problem lies when you offer shortcut packs but also make the game grindy

[dry copper]

http://www.makehumancommunity.org/

[dreamy zinc]

instead of just having a normal game and offering shortcut pakc for people with non time but money

[dry copper]

Open source free for commercial purposes etc etc

[dreamy zinc]

BF3-4 were actually decent in that regard

but those game as well as cod should learn from BF hardline on how to handle unlocks for weapons

never knew that i could say something truly positive from BF hardline lol

[dry copper]

Define positive

I mean...Is hardline good or just less brain damaged?

[dreamy zinc]

God I hate driving in Lisbon during Christmas time

[obtuse reef]

Its not me or my family, we hardly celebrate

Its all the fucking craziness about it

My presence is your present

[snow zenith]

I hate it

[dreamy zinc]

i like christmas tho

the atmo is nice

[snow zenith]

The veneer of a wholesome time on top of endless consumerism

Makes me blood boil

[dry copper]

I don't really celebrate. I like the change in culture though...I wish it stayed nicer year long

People being nice for special occasions is....painful

Happy Birthday every day

[snow zenith]

You're gonna wish they die the rest of the year or not give a fuck but suddenly Christmas

I hate it

[obtuse reef]

I like Christmas because people are socially obligated to give me free shit. Downside, I always put off getting other people free shit

[snow zenith]

I don't gift anyone anything unless I want to

Ask people to do the same with me

[dry copper]

People get mad at me giving them shit

[snow zenith]

Fuck if it's my birthday or Christmas or Easter or your mum's arse

[dry copper]

"I didn't get you anything"

[dreamy zinc]

For us its more a time for being together

the gifting is usually done on budget

but other thant that i just like the jolly atmo sphere and the cold (and snow if it ever does that again)

but right now

too earlty for christmas

[winter yew]

Too true

[edgy viper]

When bethesda does CP 2077 flop its somehow not that bad " because its bethesda" smh.
Konami is head deep in gambling and mtx. Dont count on them making proper AAA game anymore . Their main revenue is from mobile and pachinko/gambling machines and they are doing better than when they did video games. So dont expect much.

[dry copper]

Doing better is subjective. They're spending less, so making more.

[inland oasis]

starfield had no where near as horrendus a launch as cyberpunk tho

[dry copper]

Bethesda didn't make a CP 2077 flop...at all.

Having played both at launch, Starfield was magnitudes more stable than CP2077

and more stable across multiple setups

[inland oasis]

Agreed. And at the moment cyberpunk is more engaging and has more longevity imo. Until starfield can expand its copy pasted content

[dry copper]

CP2077 was crashing on the most expensive systems in the world

[inland oasis]

Not that it isn’t good by any means. I LOVE both of them

[dry copper]

Agreed.

[inland oasis]

But cyberpunks got its hooks in me again after retrying 2.0

[dry copper]

I haven't touched CP2077 since the new update. I'm going to go into it with a fresh perspective.

Cleansing my gaming palette rn with Robocop

[inland oasis]

It’s highly recommended to just start a fresh game

[dry copper]

Which is fantastic btw

[inland oasis]

So many of the systems are completely gutted and reworked. Some stuff hardly resembles how it was at all.

Skill system is completely re vamped

[dry copper]

My only regret with CP2077 is how much of it can't be fixed because of the engine

[inland oasis]

It’s as moddable as starfield tho. At least it has been for me

[dry copper]

They can make the game as best they can and that's fine, but the shit that was done to that engine at its development stages make modding it almost not worth it

[inland oasis]

My games beyond modded out

[mental rose]

AND nfts, don't forget the Castlevania auction that got them... I think it was 120k $

[dry copper]

I can't unsee the 2D distant sprites of cars in the far reaches of LOD territory

[inland oasis]

I’ll admit one thing it does do that’s extremely jarring and noticeable, is when driving, after reaching specific speeds n such, traffic and crowds won’t render/spawn anymore as to save cpu costs and such. I’m not a fan of it. Even with a mod to disable it, still occurs a good bit

But idk if that’s just a “me” issue with my pc personally

I use maxed settings. Just no RTX. So, I don’t think so

[dry copper]

I hate RTX

I have RTX GPU and still hate it

My reasons....I don't appreciate the overhead.

[inland oasis]

I turn it on just to see the difference and HOLY F-K, but I can’t do 7-13 fps 😂

[dry copper]

The return on processing isn't worth it

[edgy viper]

It looks like it will get worse. Its old tactic.
-Something bad with mtx
-Pepole are angry
-devs take step back
-players get used to new bad standard

• devs do 2 steps foward and make even worse game filled with mtx

[inland oasis]

I do enjoy that it splits the raytracing into both lighting and reflection settings. Not just both in one setting. And I agree. Until it gets even more optimized it’s not worth

[dry copper]

I bet my antivirus is updating or some shit.

My net is shitting the bed rn

[inland oasis]

I just do like to see it’s a noticeable difference, however yea, just still not worth it imo

For how great it can still look without

[mental rose]

I sometimes get pretty deep drops in the center of Dogtown, but I think that might be hardware issue, my CPU is 2 gens old

[edgy viper]

Imo yes because bethesda got more time, money and resources, to make good game. Starfield worked but not much more besides that.

Played the demo. Its a walking sim but If you liked soma or firewatch and you like sf retro punk imo you will like it. Game is not long tho. Heard its 6h

From what know S. Lem books are really good so i think its worth to check them out.

[dry copper]

The Marvels are ducking for cover. They bombed.

They couldn't even cover the cost of production on their opening weekend. I'd be shocked if any of the marvel actors had a career with the studio after this piss poor launch

What are the origins of the names Barbie and Ken?

I'll give you a hint.
They were brother and sister.

Good reviews

[willow crypt]

The Invincible is great so far

[dry copper]

Is it tacoma like or is it its own thing?

by that is it a narrative story adventure or something more?

[willow crypt]

So far narrative driven with no combat

didn’t play Tacoma

it’s got a lot of interactive gameplay though, as well as dialogue choices

[dry copper]

tacoma is like...mystery narrative adventure

[willow crypt]

more akin to Firewatch

[dry copper]

Some minor puzzles

No combat

When you think of what a game as a story might be, tacoma. Or "Gone Home"...or "Captain Spirit"

No real combat....Just a narrative exploration

[willow crypt]

Gone Home i’d consider far less interactive gameplay

still good game

[dry copper]

Currently looking at The Front...but I worry it is just a Rust clone

...with a bigger map

[willow crypt]

seem to be a lot of those

[dry copper]

Humble choice supposed to be tomorrow I think

Current rumor is Hardspace shipwrecker on the deck with a zen game about packing and some others

packing or unpacking....

[willow crypt]

heard about that one

[dry copper]

oh wow...invincible price is pretty cheap. I wonder if the game is super short now

ah...5 hours

Five hours could be rushed I dunno

[long beacon]

I wonder how many choices there is, might be able to turn 5 hours into 10

[dry copper]

dunno. I was told robocop was like 12 hours. I wasn't even near the end at 16 hours...I've just been chillin in dystopian detroit

I think for the right demographic, the time it takes to complete varies...

[long beacon]

I think generally playtime is written by reviewers who rush main story and don’t chill out doing side stuff, I def take a lot longer

I enjoy games who put mini games within the game or little shows

[dry copper]

At 22 hours in, doing every side story I can find and exploring maps repeatedly for more engagement opportunities, I'm approaching the end of the robocop story

There's a grading system as well that you can see if you missed stuff in a map between levels

There's no NG+ so I'd recommend anyone playing in the hope of using all their super robo powers, do those side missions

Can't get enough points to max out your cop if you don't

robocop fully ripped is a beast

slow time ability, shield ability, dash power, shoot bullets and ricochet them off shit

Changes the game feeling fundamentally

Someone throws a grenade, you hit slow motion...you got options. Shoot it mid air, turn around and dash away...hit them before they get it launched....turns it against them

Options

There will be no debate in the gaming circles...."Does robot kill people?"

Robocop turns people into jam

They is def no marvel game

[dry copper]

I just had an idea for a game

The game, a storied adventure set in a cultist mansion in the early 1600s as you're investigating the death of a young girl...

Time does not move forward unless you're moving around, but when you're moving around time is moving forward rapidly, days, weeks, months, years even...the faster you move, the faster time moves.

This mechanic changes the environment you're in as it rots and falls apart all around you. In this sense, one wrong step could put you in a position incapable of completing the game because it blocks you physically with some environmental change.

You follow the life of a house cursed by an ancient cult...haunted by a ghost as you seek to find out who killed your daughter.

The story follows the house for over four hundred years surviving multiple wars and fires as the world changes around it and you, exploring a new world being born in the ashes of its ancient mystery.

Ballsy move for the developers to add something like that

[orchid fox]

mind u if u want full rewards (2 minions 1 2 seater mount bird and tp ring) u need 2 plat bracelets (1 per partner, limited to 1 marrage a character), but plat band is like 20 euro

https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/product/374 also fun fact this got un-genderlocked

males can use it

lol

https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/category/8 but ye pay like 20 or 40 if u want the 2 seater for both of u (both get a copy) u both need to pay 20 cuz the marriage ceremony prio the lowest tier bracelet (soooooo no buying 1 plat 1 free cuz marriage will count as free one)

[quaint escarp]

why wear a maid outfit in game when you can wear one irl

[orchid fox]

interestingly enough this doesnt..... have a displayed cooldown

lol

was right with thirty min it seems

[dry copper]

It says partner

Does the partner have to be a NPC?

Is that a real player?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itLIM38k2r0

it demands an actual player for partner and features, both wearing a paid wristband. this is not a singleplayer game

To play Sims 4 do I need to have some special EA account ?

I haven't logged into my EA app in so long

Ah yes

I absolutely hate how expensive bundles are for this game

I can totally see this game being loved enough for girls to buy every single one of them

My sister loves it

Oh sick. It works on steam deck

Oh sweet. There's a relive the failure of your highschool education expansion

[edgy prairie]

LOL

[dry copper]

Decided to go with sims 3.

The ability to build multiple lots is too tempting

Maybe in december when rental units are a thing I'll consider sims 4

I should've just installed the tenants again....

Instead, I bought the sims 3

Boogie looks disgusting. Some dude did a biography of the youtuber with boogie's consent and I gotta say: It's gross. Boogie is portrayed as a conceited misogynist that treats people (even his fans) as tokens of entitlement. His youtube fame went straight to his head and scrambled his brain.

He's probably conceited enough to think acting pathetic, people will feel sympathy for him.

Otherwise known as "The Credible Hulk", her posts are by far the most educated I've seen on the entire platform.

Speaking of, she posted some imprisonment stats from bloomberg coming out of El Salvador. The US gotta up its imprisoning citizens game...El Salvador imprisoning their civvies at three times the rate.

just kiddin...El Salvador is currently in a crime crackdown

They aren't just arresting civvies. They're organizing against a growing criminal enterprise.

and being robin

to become Nightwing, his own protector of Bludhaven

Where exactly even is Bludhaven? Is it part of Gotham City? @austere lance you definitely know

Imagine an Arkham game but from Nightwings POV, in Bludhaven.

that’d be sick af I think

nightwing underrated

[mental rose]

Isn't Bludhaven the prison in Gotham City?

[winter yew]

Bludhaven is separate from Gotham. It’s a city between Gotham and Atlantic City

Blackgates in Gotham

In an older section of it I think

Blackgate gets mentioned at the start of Arkham Asylum. There was a fire, so all the prisoners were moved to the Asylum

[tame cairn]

Ah neat.

“Blackgate Penitentiary is a fictional prison depicted in the DC Universe, traditionally located on a small island in the Gotham Bay, Gotham City”

blackgate is in gotham knights right?

MK9 version was so cool

[austere lance]

Basically, lol. It's L4D with skill trees and cool abilities and character classes, and decent character customization. And it's obviously set in the 40k universe 😆

[mental rose]

And the banter between classes

Seeing a lot of clips about those

[austere lance]

Yeah, each voice you pick for each character class has different lines and interacts with others differently, so there's a good amount of variety 😆

[mental rose]

Like how Ogryns pronounce "sir" as "sah"
It tickles my funny bone 😄

Fractured looks like a sad game

I was looking at the MMO thinking...could be interesting, but the more I thought about it - The less interesting it became. It looks like a griefers heaven

One review read (paraphrasing):

Calling this a beta is setting the bar really high. None of the features promised have been implemented. If you're interested in getting the game, don't get any of the extras because they aren't implemented and you'll have at least gotten your moneys worth before you realize how bad the state of the game really is.

Jesus Christ

a South Korean man got killed in a freak accident yesterday in a factory

the robotic arm which is used to pick up boxes of vegetables in order to package and seal them, mistook him for a box, lifted him up and put him on the conveyor belt

the ensuing process caused massive blunt trauma to his head and chest

"mistook"

fatal software glitch

I've seen my fair share of "humans getting stuck in machines" videos on Reddit 💦

[inland oasis]

This is how I want in cockpit warping animation to be

This is how those freighter warp animation can be like
https://media.tenor.com/NyLVWzG0l7gAAAAM/star-trek-fleet-arrives-warp10voyager-enterprise4k-hd.gif

I think it will add an awesome sense of space and sheer size of things in nms

Right now even though freighter are big they seems really small

[sonic sonnet]

Another animation which would look cool

[obtuse reef]

I liked the elite dangerous warping animation

[winter yew]

YES

[sonic sonnet]

Which one is that

[obtuse reef]

I mean, it’s the game Elite Dangerous. I can’t describe it good

[grand mica]

So I've been playing Star Trek online lately, and although I didn't know how to hide the UI i think this is a nice screenshot.

[winter yew]

star trek online, i played that somewhere in 2017 idk

[grand mica]

Yeah, it's a relic of an MMO now. Lol! Ancient shiz

[obtuse reef]

I still play EVE online, which is essentially the great great great grandfather of every space MMO

[winter yew]

I miss it

[earnest hatch]

great animations not a very fun game

[inland oasis]

if elite dangerous had focused alot more on the "off ship" portion of the "space genre" itd be pretty good

[earnest hatch]

Agreed

It just its so boring after like 30 minutes

also the planets are pretty awful if im being honest

[inland oasis]

ive had to restart countless times just cuz of the learning curve in that game

and sometimes trying to travel somewhere feels like it took literal hours

[earnest hatch]

Thats also the problem aswell

it takes FOREVER to go places sometimes

like sometimes its fine and I can deal with it

[inland oasis]

yea, not to mention the issue of slingshotting way past your desitnation. having to fly all the way back with the wonky warp system stuff etc.

[earnest hatch]

and othertimes its just "so this is it huh"

also a little off topic

[inland oasis]

there been times ive run out of fuel just from trying to do a simple A - B run cuz i kept somehow missing where i was supposed to land lol

[earnest hatch]

But its insane how fast the GTA 6 News blew ip

[earnest hatch]

also that

Fuel is so annoying

[inland oasis]

weve only been waiting for TOO DAMN LONG

[earnest hatch]

I ran out and just didnt touch the game since

[earnest hatch]

thats true

but I mean it has 10 years of development

[inland oasis]

3 of my restarts have been from running out of fuel.

[inland oasis]

even tho its proabably going to be the largest launch of a game ever, i cant help but feel, idk, shielded to expect the worst from rockstar

[mental rose]

Elite Dangerous is one of those space simulators that doesn't hold your hand right?

[inland oasis]

yea, youll restart alot just trying to learn simple shit

[mental rose]

I used to play the original on my brother's Amiga... of course I was... I think 8(?) so I didn't understand anything 😄

[earnest hatch]

It is going to be the Biggest Game Ever Made to be Honest. I have trust in rockstar just because they really do put care into there games and are a really god triple A studio

[inland oasis]

its not the quality that scares me. itll be the predatory monetization etc.

and if theyll pull a GTAV with it

[earnest hatch]

That yeah that does scare me a bit but I def have a lot more trust in Rockstar than I do with something Like Activision per say

like the new COD

[mental rose]

Soo... you're just gonna let slide the fact they released the horrendous GTA "Definitive" trilogy and delisted the originals because of it?

[earnest hatch]

it is beyond awful

[inland oasis]

for the next 30+ years GTAVI may be all we get

[earnest hatch]

That is bad I will admit

[inland oasis]

that wasnt rockstar tho

[earnest hatch]

Also that tho

[mental rose]

It wasn't? 🤨

[inland oasis]

it was pawned off work to a third party studio

[earnest hatch]

no it was a third party studio

[inland oasis]

published by rockstar

[mental rose]

Oh

[inland oasis]

kinda like how new vegas wasnt bethesda

[mental rose]

Published by Rockstar.... getting a Hunt Down the Freeman deja vu here 😄

[inland oasis]

i do think GTAVI is going to be insane but i also think that compared to what the POTENTIAL for how good it COULD be is going to get watered down because of investors, and monetization

[mental rose]

I do agree, San Andreas was da shit back in the day, played and replayed it for hundreds of hours on my PS2
Aand that's where it stopped... think I switched to Saints Row 2 from there

So I didn't play 4 or 5

[inland oasis]

When rockstar decided that in game money had real world value, things went downhill

Gta4 was a masterpiece. I love the multiplayer party mode

[earnest hatch]

Honestly after RDR2 I def have faith in rockstar to make games. It is ass that the Multiplayer was kinda cut but while it lasted it is still fun to mess around in I do think that yes predatory monetization is gonna be a thing but I also actually have gotten to talk to a Ex-High Ranking Rockstar person who helped develop the NPC ai and I have a lot of faith for GTA6

[inland oasis]

RDR2 online tho…. Absolute shit show

[tame cairn]

yeah pretty sure a mobile dev did the gta trilogy remaster

or it just looked like mobile 💀

[inland oasis]

Yes it was a mobile port

[tame cairn]

yeah so it makes sense

[earnest hatch]

it was

[tame cairn]

still sad though

i was excited

[inland oasis]

“Mobile port” should be an arrestable offense

[earnest hatch]

Agreed

[tame cairn]

fr lol

gta 6 will be big no matter if its trash

it will sell hugely first week

it’s the long awaited gta game lol

[inland oasis]

Yea it kinda is bound to succeed no matter what cuz who honestly is okay “waiting even longer” lol

[earnest hatch]

It is the most anticipated game of all time

[inland oasis]

its such a forced but well deserved anticipation too

[mental rose]

With all these years, it better damn be stable on day 1 😄

[earnest hatch]

thats also what I have the most faith in about day 1 the polish of the game

[inland oasis]

im only sad pc doesnt get it day 1. but thats typical to prior releases

[earnest hatch]

true

but also we dont know if they will do that it could change but its unlikely

[inland oasis]

shit my pc may not even be able to run it xD

[earnest hatch]

Im just nervous to see how big the game is especially with the budget leaks etc etc

I mean RDR2 has 500,000 lines of Dialogue

[inland oasis]

gta 6 min requirements: rtx 10090ti, amd1670000k, 90 gigs ram, 447Tb storage space.

you must also be plugged into the Central american power grid

[earnest hatch]

I cant wait for the 120000 missions the huge map a billion cars and 1,000,000+ lines of dialogue

the last one is actually possible tbh

[tame cairn]

i really hope its nothing too crazy

rdr2 is still like

[inland oasis]

im gonna guess at minimum 300GB game

[tame cairn]

one of the best looking games ever

[earnest hatch]

dont say that please

P L E A S E

[inland oasis]

RDR2 was what? 120?

[earnest hatch]

110 I believe

[jovial warren]

GTA 6 is coming 🎉🎉🎉

[inland oasis]

yeh close enough haha

[earnest hatch]

honestly

[tame cairn]

yea around there

[earnest hatch]

thats like normal game size

[tame cairn]

I mean rdr2 is wild

[inland oasis]

R6 seige is literally like 250-280 gigs now i think ? XD

[tame cairn]

Compared to gta5

[inland oasis]

inSANE

[earnest hatch]

RDR2 is crazy

[tame cairn]

People literally do their jobs

all day

lol

[earnest hatch]

its 70

[inland oasis]

oh wut

[tame cairn]

lumberjacks will be cutting down trees

[earnest hatch]

if you do the HD textures then it huge

[tame cairn]

you can just watch them do it

[inland oasis]

that explains it

[earnest hatch]

They compressed the game also

it went from 120
