running out of ideas to add to it, seeing I've been working on it for over a year

crystal mountain
#

I dont have my finger as much on the pulse of popular gaming as you guys but I do remember that

#

rather lame, an overwatch campaign would have been incredible

tardy arrow
#

It's part of the reason activision was losing a looot of money, on top of losing 2 million WoW players.

summer spire
#

I mean, doesn’t really matter because it went free-to-play and now the whole genre uses that model.

carmine gust
crystal mountain
#

just imagine a Blizzard made modern single-layer campaign

tardy arrow

#

The only blizzard games I still play are ones I already owned, I'm never giving that company money again.

summer spire
crystal mountain
#

The writing was on the wall with the Activision merger.

#

I saw it as long ago as 2010

#

I want to say, not sure exactly when it was first announced

#

I saw what Kotick was doing to CoD and I knew eventually blizzard would never be the same

tardy arrow
tardy arrow
crystal mountain
#

Yeah... whats incredible is how he just stayed in power for so long

#

the bad ones always do

tardy arrow
#

it's a shame he was still allowed to leave with any money at all.

summer spire

#

I honestly wish Microsoft took over and threw him out sooner, probably would've saved WoW from being dogshit.

crystal mountain
#

OH yeah, uh Slayur

#

Bethesda.

#

Perfect example of a once great monolith now come to ruin

#

look what they did to Starfield

tardy arrow
#

Hardly ruin.

crystal mountain
#

and also fallout 76

tardy arrow
#

76 is fine.

#

I actively play, 76 is in a very good state right now.

#

A bad launch doesn't mean it stays bad, the games improved 100-fold, much like No Man's Sky.

summer spire
crystal mountain
#

Absolutely!

#

All the Elder Scrolls games were first-in-class

tardy arrow
#

ESO's also doing more than fine.

#

Bethesdas issue has, and always was, never truly finishing the product.

#

Morrowwind was not a perfect game, it had a ton of flaws, as did Oblivion.

summer spire

tardy arrow
#

Starfield is a fine game.

crystal mountain
#

Cant agree there lol

#

I respect your right to like it 🙂

tardy arrow
#

The only issue with Starfield is that it's just fallout in space, outside of thhat, the game is objectively good.

crystal mountain
#

I just tuned into Shroud running through it for a few hours one day and shook my head vigorously

#

those cookie cutter space bases, fighting enemies who dont even face you

carmine gust
#

Squirrel Stapler is a good game

tardy arrow
#

Shroud's a streamer who does everything exclusively to entertain an audience.

crystal mountain
#

everything looked and felt entirely generic

summer spire
tardy arrow
#

Not because something is good or bad.

summer spire
crystal mountain
#

well no understand what Im saying, I just watched his stream to get a take on the game

tardy arrow
#

Frankly, streamer opinions are the least notable opinions.

crystal mountain
#

wasnt letting his playstyle influence me, just what I was looking at

tardy arrow
crystal mountain
#

like he wasnt talking about Starfield being bad, just watching him play it revealed that to me

#

Just very generic horrid animations and enemy AI

tardy arrow
#

Personally, the only way to form a real opinion is to actually play it.

tardy arrow

SC has no sister game, because the "sister game" hasn't released.

crystal mountain
#

Elite dangerous? or is that not a related game

tardy arrow
#

Elite is entirely different.

crystal mountain
#

thats just another video game right

#

ahh ok, yeah they play that one all the time as well

tardy arrow
#

ED plays nothing like SC and tbh I think it's worse, but that's because I do not like the way it handles flight.

Windows itself isn't 35 gigs, it reserves a shitload of space for overhead on any drive its installed on though.

Storage capacity and operating systems have a fun relationship, you never get the full storage.

pick any Linux distro and it's unlikely to be over 10gb with a desktop environment and default apps

#

Alright

sullen yarrow
#

Yeah, when the 3 HL2 games got merged

#

Or, well, 4, since Lost Coast got merged too

#

This merger is mighty interesting because it broke the original version of Lost Coast

spice quartz
sullen yarrow
#

Kinda? It was released to showcase the HDR capabilities of the Source engine but it was meant to be part of the base HL2 originally

#

The original version's flashlight is now broken and doesn't do anything lol rip

sullen yarrow
#

Now we just need a new console port please Valve

spice quartz
#

It's technically a console

sullen yarrow
#

Sure but calling that a console port is quite silly isn't it

spice quartz
#

I want a steamdeck

sullen yarrow
#

It's equivalent to porting it to the Ouya with how so little people have access to it, except the Deck is good

spice quartz
faint ivy
#

The deck is just a handheld PC

sullen yarrow
#

All good, just waiting for Valve to outsource HL1 to Nightdive or something so we can get it on a console that isn't the PS2

sullen yarrow
#

Black Mesa console port is something I want the most to happen but that's been denied already so rip

HL2 on the Switch when 💀

Yeah you can, it has an exclusive campaign, even

#

Both consoles are fine tbh

#

Though the Steam Deck can do much more

#

Because it's basically a PC

spice quartz
#

Cuz I want a steamdeck so badly but my wife won't allow it since I'm going to buy a desktop anyway

sullen yarrow
#

I don't like the Switch personally but it's a bit of a bizarre reason, I still think it's a solid system it being a hybrid just kinda screws over some Nintendo fans

faint ivy
#

Buy one and find out

Not yet tho, i need to buy a desktop first

Hi I'm new here wanted to talk about a bug in doom eternal

tardy arrow
sacred elk
#

I was doing a secret encounter and it was against two elite zombies and a marauder, I was respawning them so I'd have enough ammo and health to properly go against the marauder (I'm inexperienced in dealing with it quickly, he is a heavy hitter too quick for me) when I was full on ammo I was working on getting enough heal when I backed into the area where the marauder can't go, probably because of some invisible wall, I jumped and the marauder died instantly for some reason and I completed the encounter

#

Now I have been playing the game for a week but I'm pretty sure marauders don't die that easily and quickly

blazing briar
#

or its dying due to pathing failure, don't knpw the specifics of that encounter

sacred elk

Interesting

Well I'm glad it's over that fucker killed me about 8 times, and I'm gonna cry if an empowered version spawns

BG3 is only "well made" if it's in comparison to bad games. If you compare it to Infinity Nikki it becomes little more than light entertainment 😌

tardy arrow
astral mortar
#

Every game has weebs. But in BG3 you can't randomly become an electrician, so it objectively flops.

#

Also Infinity Nikki probably has Karlach somewhere, you should download it so you can find out 👀

tardy arrow
#

That's a lie, there's a point where you actually have to be an electrician. However, weeb game simply doesn't have Fireball, thus bad.

#

I have too much other shit to do, I'm supposed to be finishing my tactician run, but I also need to start building arma missions and trying to fix one with a fucked script trigger.

I'm mostly in a cycle of Warships dailies, 76 dailies, maybe do some 76 grind, or grind warframe while I desperately wait for 4.0 to polish up and release for SC.

#

I picked up a weird horror game and it's so incredibly Unity it hurts.

astral mortar
#

Look, BG3 probably has a depressing world. Infinity Nikki's is better because it's really happy and then just randomly they drop some depressing asf shit on you like some kid saying "yeah my mom woke me up in the middle of the night, and said the bad men were here, so we had to run. She ran me for a long time, and then we found my friends and she told me to stay with them for a while, and they brought me here. You travel a lot, have you seen my mom? ....she's gonna miss my birthday...."

tardy arrow
#

Yeah but BG3 has hot druids and that's a hard requirement for me.

astral mortar
tardy arrow

No, sober living sucks.

tardy arrow

But Infinity Nikki does have a hot guy in it so there's that 🤷‍♀️

tardy arrow
#

Its settings menu is lackluster as shit, it has no control customization whatsoever, and it's noticably cheap.

astral mortar
tardy arrow
#

In order to avoid modeling faces they just blurred them lmfao.

#

Though, they put a ton of effort into a goth chick you meet at the start of the game, as the only characters voice you can hear, and I highkey think it was a lewd game turned horror game.

tardy arrow
#

D2 isn't tho, game sucks, literally the worst.

astral mortar
tardy arrow
#

god I think pre-2000's games had better menus lmao.

The only annoying part is how many generic jumpscares its got, because it plays off cliche horror rather than actual horror.

#

This game though, because it feels and looks kinda cheap, I firmly believe it was because they just couldnt be bothered.

#

The game has a lot of gore everywhere and it feels kinda like a first game, except they wanted it to be edgy.

thorny hinge
#

Probably because it is a first game and they’re trying to be edgy

tardy arrow
#

Certainly not terrible, but it's not amazing either

#

It is weirdly lovecraftian though with some aspects, so I'm gonna finish it out.

astral mortar
#

I love face blurring in horror games, because to me it feels like when you experience something traumatic and block it out. The game is recalling the memory but you just can't remember what they liked like because your mind blocked it out. I know it doesn't fit the vibe of all horror games but when I've seen it done right it's done so right

tardy arrow
#

I think the premise of the "world" is like, people are so used to not seeing faces and not hearing actual speaking that it's engrained in everyone to just see blurred faces and weird mumbling noises that.. somehow they still understand as words?

#

idk though, i'm pretty sure theres AI used in the game cause there's a ton of incredibly high detailed art that looks too uncanny.

#

And a lot of the voice acting for the goth chick says some really weird things, like it's poorly translated.

#

Probably shouldn't have spent $12 on it, but

#

steam's anti-ai enforcement sucks.

thorny hinge
#

It had one?!

tardy arrow
#

mhm.

#

It's a recent thing, if a year counts as recent, but Steam classes AI between two different things: generative, and live.

#

Originally they outright banned AI generated content in games.

#

and I wish they kept it, because it was such a fucking intelligent decision.

#

The pre-generated content restrictions revolve arouhnd any art, code, sound, etc created with the help of AI tools cannot be found to cinlude illegal or infringing content, and the game has to be consistent with its marketing.

#

which.. 99% of "AI tools" include illegal of infringing content, because all it does is steal from everywhere to generate its garbage

#

and I wish steam had a real stance and outright said "If you use AI generated content, your game will not be permitted on the platform."

Amazing game, feels a lot like Wolfenstein to me, which I think you said you were quite fond of.

I'll pick up a copy eventually and give it a playthrough.

# buoyant egret Metro 2033 I thought it was going to be a hardcore open world survival horror bu...

The game is pretty old and is called "Metro," so I wasn't expecting anything huge or open world. If anything I was expecting just that, tunnels and corridors. I loved the games underground atmosphere and society and world building that it offered, I was extremely immersed throughout my whole playthrough. I also really loved the atmosphere on the surface. You start the game there in one of my favorite game openings I've played, and when you see it again it's just as appealing imo.

astral mortar
# tardy arrow The one thing I remember from a Metro game was a review of I think it as Last Li...

I just started Last Light and I haven't beaten it yet so I don't wanna say much, but i will say that I have felt like this game was weirdly... horny...? I guess? Idk it just uncharacteristically has a lot of sexual content for seemingly no reason, and tbh a lot of the time I doubt it was made by the same people who made 2033, despite the games being EXTREMELY similar in many facets. Anyway, I'd prefer not to talk about the game much until I beat it, but that was something that did bother me

tardy arrow
#

That alone was enough for me to not bother picking it up, honestly.

astral mortar
#

Fair, based.

#

I will continue playing because I love the world and I loved 2033, but thus far my expectations have been subverted. Im hoping the game can turn it around

tardy arrow
#

Honestly, entirely fair.

astral mortar
#

Oh yeah when we were talking earlier about bad or uninclusive settings menus, I was going to bring up metro but I think I forgot. Honestly I think the only settings you can change are your sensitivity and aim sensitivity (i play on max for both and it still feels low), subtitles on or off (and not all lines have subtitles, for some reason), crosshair and hit markers on or off, and volume settings, which I think is literally just "Master Volume" and "Music Volume". Pretty primitive imo, definitely wish there was more customization

#

As much as I have loved the games so far, there is definitely a good chunk of criticism that they absolutely deserve
