Oh
It's just a traditional singleplayer game
It was standard run-of-the-mill single player AAA
And a really good one at that imo
The scale imo was pretty low, I wished for a bigger world
But it was genuinely a good game
Sushi Squad was live service and didn't sold well 
I don't really get why tf they would ruin Hogwarts Legacy
Just make another big singleplayer game
Hell make a Harry Potter MMORPG
You can monetize the fuck out of that
For YEARS
DECADES even
But not a damn live service, fuck that
ah yes just make an mmorpg because that's so easy to do well xD
If Warner Bros can't make an MMORPG then fuck me
Amazon managed to make one on their first try
It was a bumpy road but they did make one
Eh, they have more than enough money to get some MMO veteran devs, and good HP one would bring billions from cosmetics alone
it also requires a shit ton more devs and cost an equal shit ton more to make
Still worth it
However, they won't go for that, because it'll make money in the long term. And they want money now, hence live service
WB made a really good single player game with the tiniest amounts of live service bullshit
Back in 2015
Still waiting for the next game 
All they have to do is just make a new Hogwarts game
Supposedly Legacy sold over 15 million copies
That's not enough?
If the profit is smaller than it was in the last quarter, then yeah, it was not enough 
Still, if they're jacking off to the graphs, MMO would be a great choice for them, player retention would skyrocket
Valve prioritizes long term profits, small steps, but in different directions, checking what's working for them
Steam Machines were a flop, they stepped back, refined software, put out Steam Decks - and they were a success
Only cause it brings people to buy more Steam games really
I doubt the Deck makes that much profit
By itself? Most likely they sell Decks at a loss
But overall? Huge profits, and lots of new users
And solid start for their future ecosystem
I doubt that they sell it at a loss
certainly not anymore now that the lowest tier is gone and most are oled models for a bit more
Now maybe not, but at the release they most likely did
maybe, we'll never now
Must've been really worth it though
I mean 2 is an exclusive kinda
Imagine Sony being in charge of sweaty FPS gamers.
That's always been Xbox's college frat image 
TPS 
I CAN DREAM CANT I
Oh you too huh
Ori dev puts game on gamepass
People play it on gamepass
Surprised pikachu face
you make less money on gamepass than by selling your game full price
I wonder what the math is.
And if the good old "if they were going to buy it, they would have" argument works.
gamepass should fail so we dont need to deal with it
hurts the entire industry aside from microsoft

The end of an era indeed.
Same because F that noise, I aint paying for another subscription
Had to double check, thank gosh
ye
WOOOOOOOOOOO
ngl i havent even used them all that much
same
I know RoosterTeeth's quality had gone downhill but geez ;(
"Anonymous on March 6, 2024 11:18 am
The social media era is over this is just the beginning"
Has RWBY even finished? I stopped following that because after Monty died it really slid downhill
Last time I saw there was S09 and some spin-off with DC superheroes 
I Heard the newer RWBY seasons were better, but that would mean having to trudge through half a dozen awful seasons
Then again whoever put up with that mean seasons of RWBY probably can't be trusted to give a fair review
Apparently Crunchyroll was involved in later season, so I don't really watch it
I watched High Guardian Spice, it was... well... was
RIP FBI

https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1b8727j/intresting_reply_from_dev_in_discord_chat_over/
HAhaha, he left the Discord too
Him and the CEO have been insulting customers left and right, saying they don't understand the game or that they shouldn't rely on what the in-game stats tell them...like it's textbook 101 on bad PR.
Reminds me of Black Desert at launch
With the lead designers defending total stat obfuscation
I have no clue what the website even is
But its mass effect 5 and dragon age still in dev
Headline says it
Yeeowch
Ahh, good old accuracy vs ap
And some items just for no reason having invisible bonus stats and never explaining what any of them do anyway
Just like helldivers 2, and then the CEO mocks you for not knowing their hidden values
Also the explosive liberator got renamed to concussive liberator
Had explosive effects removed
So even they don't know what their game is
Lol
Damn my performance tanked with this new update, Iw as just getting sub 60FPS on a mission for no reason, GPU and CPU were less than half usage
Wasn't happening before the patch
Keeps nerfing our ability to deal with armored enemies, but doesn't stop their frequency
I'm glad I only played the game for like 90 mins, hit that refund button today.
Hey guys
i jus wnted to ask yall for some help
so like
i wanna know the most optimal keyboard settings i can get with the wooting two he
for fighting games like brawlhalla
It's just preference.
well it's like i dont wanna make my game too responsive and i dont wanna make it not as responsive as i wnt and idk how i can find the middle line between the 2
Just gotta thug it out and test it yourself to find what works for you and your setup.
You can search the profile section for brawlhalla and see if anyone has shared anything you can use as a starting point.
where's the profile section?
Man, everyones crashing or being kicked from games randomly nowm, this patch broke shit hard
Yeah, hearing a lot of mixed things. Balance aside, this game isn't stable at all.
Last time, all 3 people "left" my game and I was by myself, i died because the last objective had like 4 chargers and 2 bile titans, very hard solo with the new nerfs
I then got invited back by my friends
To the same game, the ywere near the end of the mission, so it somehow separated us into two identical matches
Interesting
Yeah, and I didn't get any rewards when beating theirs, so like my loss in my own one counted as a loss in this one
Their networking is...truly unique lol
I noticed that when the game crashes
It tends to be like a chain crashing
1 player crashes then the next then the next then the next
Doesn't matter who crashes first
Like
Even if its not the host
Everyone will crash
Yeah it's their networking shit is causing this, always online requirements keep winning
Mkilbride and Helldivers, name a better love couple, I couldn't
its a bit excessive
its almost as bad as pleasant and that bungie game
Yeah that one
dont you mean destiny2
Yeah Pleasant's having a boner for destiny 2
Just like quin and FFXIV 
dont think I post nearly as much as those two about any game lol
I mean if you ever talk about a game you play, it's always FFXIV
well yes I am playing it a lot 
Btw, quin, on the topic of FFXIV

I don't remember FFXIV looking like that
Looks PS2ish, far worse than it should look like
Just a console port thing or is that literally how it looks
well aside from the last few scenes everything ran on ps3 still
graphic update coming this summer with the expansion
but its still keeping ps4/xbox series S so theres a limit what you can do without mods
You don't remember what PS2 looked like. 😛
I do since I still play PS2 games
I so miss playing NBA Street Vol. 2 on my PS2 slim
What even is that sentence.
I don't really know but it's weird man it's possible

Wow people are really thirsty for the character lol
Well yeah. Gamers.
it's the dev of fukking nikke
what do you expect
gacha stuff? 
Makes sense
the horniest gacha stuff
Please
There's 10x worse
Ever seen that Azur lane game or whatever
They have sex, literally
is the "gameplay" asses jiggling in your face
Yes
I played Azur Lane for a while
It was my first and last gacha game, at this point I was still young and stupid and didn't knew there were MTX there 
my wooting is rly buggy
make a post in #1019755933959733258 about the issue
like when i plkay val it randomly toggle crouchers n when i click esc it does the windows key thing
I have allergy for games with non-cosmetic mtx
And gacha games are the most blatant example
if characters are gacha exclusives and theres no easy way to earn gacha tokens i agree
wtc is wrong with my head today
there fixed the logic
jesus
had to read it 5 times
Don't worry, I understood you just fine 
That was quick
jesus
Cool
Maybe I'll get it once the game will stop kicking me out 
I haven't noticed drop nerf tbh 
We also don't know the price.
It's definitely real
But it seems to be heavily rng based
Sickle was my go too in the firsrt
No stratagems though

couple weeks these days means datamined+solved+L+ratio
While I love the idea of changing meta from shield+railgun, it'd be better if they just buffed the rest of weapons 
https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1b8re6c/have_a_mess_of_a_launch_get_some_goodwill_back/
Yeah exactly
Railgun feels gross now
Imagine firing superheated metal slugs and they bounce off a generic enemy
How is that in any way fun
im enjoying the flamethrower
I feel kinda conflicted about flamethrower now
It does nice damage, but mostly in dota
And it needs to "fart" before using it -.-
That fart is realistic. 😛
That fart has costed me multiple resupplies yesterday
I just want roasted chargers
lol
🍿
It is wild watching how the first week or two, people sucked Arrowhead off so hard it made me angry
Like the people held them up as these gods of development
And then within a few days they burned all of it awya
lol
Backend guys still deserve praise
I can imagine what hell they were going through while trying to scale this game 
CEO of a company + Twitter always ends in diaster
Every time
Honestly, the game isn't fun right now.
They increased spawn rates of all enemies, including heavies, and reduced our ability to take care of them.
My biggest complaint currently is bug spawning mechanic
With bots you can notice that one of them is raising the arm to shoot a flare and react
With bugs they can instantly summon friends after spawn, not even a moment to react, it's nightmare to deal with them now after increased spawns
yeah the bug breaches have been a bit annoying when you basically insta kill a group and it still calls in support
They get nuts when you kill 99% of the patrol and a single one hiding behind a rock shoots his bug goo
Like fuck me I guess
And a LOT of times now, I've had Chargers or bile Titans spawn directly on top or below me
Like PHASE into reality
It's not fun lol
Oh yeah, I had that too
Imagine my reaction when I discovered I'm reloading under the titan out of nowhere 
Also had a patrol of bots spawn directly on top of me
The issue is that past difficulty 4, almost all enemies gain armor, and most weapons...don't damage armor.
The ifrst game wasn't like this so I don't quite understand why #2 is.
You could damage armor with any weapon as long as you kept shooting
Eventually you wore it down
That's not the case here
Also the enemies weak points all took high damage, you could 1-shot chargers in the first game.
the game for some reason likes to take away my primary smg mag when i switch weapons
even when the mag was full lol
the game must be hella good, because everything else i heard about it sounds like big shite
Do your bit for the Galactic War effort and unleash all-new toys of tactical chaos with the Cutting Edge Premium Warbond.
This unique anti-alien cache includes explosive weapons, prototype armour, capes and player cards, emotes, and utility boosters for this month and beyond.
HELLDIVERS 2 is Out Now on PS5 and PC
Also Arrowhead changed their FAQ, there will be no free Warbonds going forward
Only Premium 
Gotta love devs when they get successful
Where?
Bait and switch or carpet pull? Xd
did they ever say the opposite? I only remember someone last week saying future ones will be premium
I mean it was implied considering one was free and the other premium
not sure how that implies anything
@still spire you're making claims but I can't find it lol
The game is great fun as-is, and there is no requirement to spend more than the base game price on it to have fun and play with friends. Anything more than that is a bonus for people who either a) enjoy the game so much that they spend more than a few dozen hours in it or b) don't mind paying more
Some people just get upset that this is on disc DLC basically
i.e, these guns and the mechs and APCS are in the games files already, have been since day 1, the Warbonds are just unlocking them
They've gotten a lot of slack for it, but it's honestly pretty scummy. 😛
almost every game that does dlcs has parts of the dlc in the game on release
so idk how that holds up vs anything else
I find the game as delivered was complete and full. They had a few growing pains with respect to server stability, but they addressed those quickly.
so hows your feeling about cs2
Eh
You can farm all premium warbonds given not a lot of time, so it's fine they're going with premium warbonds onwards
I mean it'd be nice if they threw in some free small ones for holidays or something, but it's ok
Takes forever without the free pass super credits though
eh, depends what missions you do, what you loot etc.
I've played 62 hours, have unlocked the premium warbond and bought multiple cosmetics without paying a cent more than purchase price.
This seems acceptable to me
You also gained like 800 super credits on the free pass
and 300 i nthe Premium
750 but yea
Maybe log in and out
I just logged in though
Bugger of lol
Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. 200 years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind — and are shocked to discover ...
Huh surprised it’s not ahead of 16
yeah, that's been on my radar for a while
apparently the speculation about the F4 next gen update was...this being delayed
a la show meshing well with game interest
apex is broken once again on linux
EAC problem again?
not sure, latest update just borked completely
eac loads as usual, just black screen afterwards
Proton issue
Runs just fine on Experimental bleeding-edge beta
Not sure what going on with audio there lol but it's my steam deck plugin
I have the sycle
Oh my fucking god
What?

Ready for some bounty hunting? 🎷✨
Overwatch 2 x Cowboy Bebop arrives March 12 🤠

♻️
Eh
either way, I am probably going to watch it
...fallout 4 update interesting at all?
I'm kinda hoping they backport a lot of the stuff from 76 tbh
I just wanted TESVI, they gave me a half baked space fallout
What Fallout 4 update
The big thing they keep delaying
you mean The Outer Worlds?
no, that was Oblivion
This is the only somewhat interesting thing about this
NCR moment 💀
NCR being in a relatively bad position in the world and having a war with brotherhood
they...did though
this was established in the lore
they had several, in fact
we meet the Mojave chapter AFTER the NCR-BOS war :P
Well yes NCR had several wars with brotherhood, and BoS didn't do well
generally they held their own iirc
the Mojave war was the exception
But this seems like a bit of a weirdly exhausted NCR
I wonder if this takes place after FNV events?
So.. who won battle for Hoover dam?
they always were a mess fighting raiders along the west coast
the newfound strength that led to overextension was very much after that
iirc this happens sometime between the events of fallout 1 and 2, maybe after 2, but not before NV
yep
So, NCR must have lost the Hoover dam war
that wouldn't make sense though
Legion doesn't seem to be featured so I am assuming Caesar died and they splintered
... House always wins
Would be cool if House won the war
And NCR is really struggling
what confuses me is that the Legion would probably have swept the Mojave, and then went further into NCR territory proper
from what little we know, the Legion never makes an appearance in the show
Which is highly likely that Legion in some way lost Hoover dam war
my assumption is that the NCR wins the battle for the dam, and is on its last legs as as fighting force, just as they are throughout F:NV anyway
House is just...a wild card ending
I honestly kinda want to see House winning
That's just yes man
Yes Man is somehow even more so
House honestly seems like the intended ending for FNV
Legion is no more, NCR is fucked, New Vegas prospers
ngl, that ending always made the most sense to me anyway, left the rest of the Mojave basically undisturbed
removed the two invading powers and cemented House's rule over the strip and loosely, the Mojave
Fallout 5 should return in some way to what happens with NCR's diminishing power, some 20-30 years later
It's a 50 inch and it looks kinda small but it's closer than the picture shows & it does it's job quite well still but I've been eyeing some bigger TVs
inb4 raider massed gang, ripping off Nuka World, the 76 Wastelanders Raider questline and making it a possible ending for a main game

76 is some 100 years before any Fallout games though no?
25 years post bomb drop
yep
also completely shits on existing lore regarding the BOS...
76 isn't canon, whatever you say
At least I fail to consider it an actual official lore piece
It's just a mess
it really is
Cause, F76 initially was extremely barebones and quite shit
excavator power armour
something explicitly military?
being developed for coal mining
during a RESOURCE SHORTAGE?
What happened now is the reverse, it has way too much content and most of it makes no sense
I'll admit that there are pieces to be salvaged
but they're few and far between, probably unique to Appalachia anyway
by design probably lol
I'm glad that a ton of missing but existing things returned...like the 10mm SMG
a common weapon used by...pretty much everyone in the prewar security realm; military, police, etc
that somehow NEVER makes an appearance in Massachusetts, a supposed HIVE of activity in that field
What I like about F76: some cool new fauna that were missing in previous games
Like this bud, this guy is cool
awwwwww mega sloth
But then they.. completely shit the bed
they're derpy and adorable
just...don't shoot them, even accidentally
they run surprisingly fast and hit surprisingly hard
What the fuck are these
There's literally no chance of such lifeforms forming after what, 25 years you said after nukes fall?
This guy is just a STALKER rip
no clue for top left, I recall the top right being a queen ant
scorchbeast in bottom left, a massive stretch
Damn burer
And what actually completely pissed me off about F76 and its direction
What the fuck is this
Appalachia got a lighter dose of rads than everywhere else, so this level of whacky mutation is a...
WHAT IN THE FUCK
They added weird aliens
of course they did
no wild wasteland trait required 
What kind of shithole direction did they take during the development to think of this
Just keep it normal
one really wonky acid trip
What I always liked about FO3 and NV, and to some extent 4
Was that the world itself was the ironic part
The weird ultracapitalist world
But what you actually interact with firsthand is mostly normal
Also F76 is a lot EARLIER than the other games.
People are typical post-apo idiots
Monsters are believable to most part
Well the weird water guys that fire sonic rays in FNV were weird
Mirelurk kings?
But still it was a dystopian world in a post-apo setting
Mirelurks weren't a thing in FNV
Ah. I don't remember any "water things that shoot sonic" from FNV at all. Only from Fallout 3 (like below the nature druid area)
They were very much the only water creatures you could find
These shites
Lol it went from mirelurk to "lakelurk"
hank
Hold on how tf did I miss this

These are Black Mesa remake devs
They are remaking Ricochet??
Boooo more harder more better
The background noises of this trailer are confusing the hell out of me
Colour palette is like Ricochet inspired
But the sounds are more.. Day of Defeat?
I mean there's too many damn chargers
I like the difficulty but with the recent nerf regarding armor peneration
Makes sense to adjust
Especially on 7 and up
But it leaves you standing there
It's not powerful enough to justify that
It should be able to melt heavy armor/chip it off progressively
It only works on med armor
But it's fun 
Yes fuck them up!
EU absolutely loves whamming Apple it's amazing
Apple should just threaten with pulling out of EU entirely. DMA would get reversed so fast
They won't though?
500 million people live here in EU, you think Apple wants to lose out on many billions 
We however would me more than happy 
I'd be happy if I didn't have to see Apple in my life anymore
Yes
No more shit Apple ads
No more shite Apple phones
I'd actually be glad
Will it happen? Fuck no lol 
EU fucks them from the front, Oregon from behind... https://techcrunch.com/2024/03/05/right-to-repair-bill-targeting-parts-pairing-passes-oregon-house/ 
well i mean giants have fallen before, its possible but probably not any time soon
Apparently it's a pretty strong year in FY24 for Apple already in EU, they'll do more than 100 I think
Good
Yes now imagine if EU had the balls to slap on say a 30 bn fine
Right to Repair is one of those things that are non-debatable and should be globally enforced
Why would they
Because Apple's DMA compliance is incredibly shitty
€1.8 billion is already a massive fine which is what they got fined just 3 days ago lol
apple would rather eat the fines than pull out
Fine, 90
apple leaving europe would be reason to party hard
I wish
Quebec did pass a pretty good right to repair bill last year
Ew, Canada
do you have to mention quebec every chance you get?
First canadian province to do so
smh, filthy canadian
I'm just pointing out its nice seeing more right to repair
It made me happy as a customer here
Hoping more and more follow suit
But Canada is more consumer friendly, like EU
US though just starts getting friendly right to repair bills
I know, thats actually pretty hype
That's false
The consumer laws are kinda shit in other provinces
Similar to us laws
Still more consumer friendly than US 
Where as qc was already closer to eu consumer laws
Don't let that distract you from the fact for every single normal bill passed in Canada, they pass like 10 terrible ones
Canada has been terribly mismanaged for like 30-40 years now
thats a really fair argument, but literally every single country is like this
There's a difference between federal and provincial litigation
Just saying
I mean it's just a pseudo-American backwater province, not like it really matters
Pretty poor, not that many peeps live there, rather irrelevant 
true
considering GDP is falling wildly behind even the poorest parts of the USA...yeah it's getting BAD
Remember Nortel 
I wanted to move to canada until I realized its just as bad as here in the states, they're just really good at marketing
blame canada
frankly, it's worse
in the states, they at least won't kick you while you're down
hows the canadian dollar holding up 
Let's face it things always look better elsewhere
But its all perspective
yeah...ugh
Still better than yen 
no
what's a great place to live and avoid responsibility?
the economy is just growing much slower than elsewhere, often stagnating
and we admittedly started from a high point
New Zealand
Chill ass island in the middle of nowhere
we handled the financial crises of the late 2000s and early 2010s better than our neighbours
sweden
there was a point where CAD traded at or below par for the USD
good fuckin times
some swedes live there and cross the border to come work here, higher salaries with lower cost of living lol
I mean you just have no economy
Avoid responsibility? Poland when we had old government 
Canada is better off just getting subjugated and becoming a state than staying independent
yeah...
a part of why I am setting myself up to leave is just that
there ain't much of a future here

especially not for debils like me with a degree or two and a couple brain cells to rub together
truly
Every country has issues
canada should become alaska pt 2
unironically
make Quebec an autonomous okrug of the USA, like Puerto Rico, nominally independent but...not actually
and turn the rest of Kanukhistan into states
On the bright side as a 51st state Canada could at least claim to be 1) Biggest in area 2) Have the most population from any of the states (just a little bit more than Cali)
And unironically why would Canada even stay independent, it just hurts you more than staying "free"
judging by how puerto rico is going... that sounds like an awful idea
frankly
geopolitics keeps us existing...for now
Puerto Rico is just a god forgotten shithole that only has taxes going for it
The constant natural disasters just proves that
oh my god you're starting to get the idea
I know a lass from PR
ok thats where you're wrong, its not forgetten. where else would the US gov abuse and constantly steal natural resources from?
And the lass has been mentally devastated to the point I have no clue how tf are they even alive
Constant natural disasters
Lack of any support from the government to hurricane victims
Like, what's the point of it
Just live in Cuba, praise Castro
puerto rico is effectively a third world country
About on par with most African countries
as someone who is puerto rican, its just sad how its been utterly abused
I just really want to move to New Zealand and forget about the rest of the world
Herd some sheep or whatever
lmao
poor cubans
its straight up just a random island that somehow has a really high quality of living
Cause peeps there are mega chill
its also really pretty
And unlike its closest neighbour, isn't fucked with spiders and snakes
It has barely anything harmful
Like it's just a weird heaven on earth where nearly everything is perfect
Closest thing to Utopia
and its also supposedly less corrupt
Actually really competent government
COVID they dealt really fast with
It's just that its biggest weakness (and strength) is that it's so far away from everything
Idk I just wanted to share Europe fucking with Apple
its pretty much general 2.0 (with 100% less slowmode!)

Nice
Still not worth it
Found out that Suicide Squad: KtJL had 26 writers. Which would explain why the story was an inconsistent jumbled mess
Can't wait for it to be free on EGS
sounds like business as usual for "AAA" studios these days
employ too many people working on a project not talking to each other resulting in a disjointed mess of a game, then ask $60+ for it because you got a lot of employee wages to pay
.... Oh
and where did you find that its 29 writers?
because in the writing credits I dont count that many
26
yes, anyway, same thing, didnt count that either
Here I was hoping that it'd be with Enigma
Me too
Day 1 crack 
a game like dragon's cockma deserves to be bought
but wirebugs completely alter the flow and speed of the game
not a fan of the claw either but its better than the Bugs
If games had like 10 hour refund windows I wouldn't mind buying em
2 hours is just not enough
DD1 was interesting at first but quickly became boring
DD2 though, I hope will be good
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12892300/fullcredits only lists like a dozen?
And are amazing with insect glaive and its switch skills 
Claw was a bit too OP - you could tenderize any part of monster easily, put it down on the ground and hold it there for half of the hunt 
well ig is the one weapon where it fits yeah
Seems you are right in regards to the Rocksteady team, but they also hired on some consulting agencies to help with the story who aren't credited
However I think those consulting agencies even added in wouldn't add to 26 writers, unless they hired a crap tonne for some reason

EA games will get even worse 
how surprising
Might be just me but has it been less fashionable lately to shit on EA?
Everyone just dogpiles on Ubisoft
I don't have a clue what EA releases anymore
yeah you cant hate on ea if they have no games
probably because of that, they haven't had anything big coming out aside the sports side
They released no games so far in '24
.....the community are fast!
Huh.. they made Dead Space remake
And that was really good
Jedi: Survivor was bumpy but good
Their "sports" games prolly usual cashgrabs?
They really haven't made much for a massive studio though
2042 is up there lol, that feels like it's been a while ago
Bonus points for Dead Space
wasn't developed by them
Heh, maybe EA has clawed back some reputation
ah you're right, they're a subsidiary as well
They were established as a subsidiary
yeah just checked
Not even a usual "buy the studio"
Proper offshoot
Surprising
Ngl though recently I had some newfound respect just for EA Originals
maybe that's the proper way of doing it instead of buying a studio and cannibalizing it from the inside
EA Originals, Command and Conquer Remastered
Dead Space I suppose
I.. kinda respect it
Ubisoft is so much more shit 
Now just need a Red Alert 2 Remastered
Ew, no thanks
I grew up with tiberian dawn and red alert 1
RA2 is such a thematic change into a parody that I hate it
RA1 had just enough of "serious" and silly
RA2 is just silly
agreed
Ah gotcha grew up with RA1 at a friends house and RA2 was when I really got into RTS
I just couldn't like RA2
Psychic peeps, rocket men, graphics looking oversaturated (iirc)
Like RA1 had the whole "chrono" thing which is just silly scifi and Einstein killing senor Hitlor, but it tried to be serious
I prefer my RTS as a serious thing
Gotcha, what about Starcraft and Starcraft 2?
Don't hate me, I've never played either
My PC could not run those games until like 2016 at which point SC2 has gotten far less popular and not on my radar anymore
And when I did try it would just refuse to launch lol
Kinda like how I want to play Assassin's Creed Black Flag and Rogue right now, and the games just don't launch
Sad
I played a bunch of RTS on PS1, Command and Conquer, Warcraft
Warcraft 3 and a bunch of lesser known old titles on PC
AoE3 was fun
Nowadays I just prefer RPGs and sims
Helldivers 2 Space Program
3 times during one mission I was launched to the other side of the map 
those last 3 shots on pharah were like 5-10% hit chance each HAHAHAHA
Did they fix that projectile size issue?
seems like it, I can't reproduce the ridiculous hitboxes in training ground
but maybe that's different for controller I dunno
game doesn't feel weird anymore to me

What am I even doing with my time
intredasting
My fellow gamers... My I'm tilted.... I whiffed on a 1v1 clutch situation and the other person was literally looking the other direction.....
gg mental reset go again
This is still absolutely wild to me.
Also got to love background tasks making your sword go straight through blocks because of a few lag frames.
skill issue
Just funny that they have stealth nerfs and stealth buffs and not tell us when we complain about it. Why is having detailed patch notes a bad thing. 😛
That feeling even when a community you're in is used to nothing being disclosed so tooling is made to automatically diff everything.
Cant wait to play pokemon zaza
For example they increased the spawn rate of enemies by about 50%, and didn't put it in the patch notes
One of those things they said they didn't feel the need to tell us, but oh boy we felt it lol
<@&490097707487330305>
Gotta wonder how many people actually fall for those bitcoin scams
Wasn't that long of a game quite chill and restarted 2 times because of 1 achievement, seemed bugged for some reason?
Now i just need another kinda short game to keep me occupied until HFW
15$ for the franchise
Not bad
Wait what?
40zł for whole C&C? And DK with DK2 added on Steam? For a reasonable price?
tf happened to EA? 
Dunno but im in
Also no origin needed at all @hardy merlin
I guess they just took GOG builds and slapped it on Steam, but still, pretty nice 
https://store.steampowered.com/app/24880/The_Saboteur/ @hardy merlin also this is on steam now
Not all wars are fought on the open battlefield. Download The Saboteur to visit 1940s Nazi-occupied Paris, as you play tough Irish racecar mechanic Sean Devlin. Working with the French Resistance, Sean is out for revenge against ruthless Nazi Colonel Kurt Dierker, who executed Sean’s best friend.This open-world action thriller takes you through ...

Was so good on 360
Bavk then
It was short and good. And definitely tried way too hard to be cool and adult.
For 7$ i'll gladly replay it
Its was so long ago too
Yeah but it doesn't include CNC Remastered. 😛
Kinda pointless ot own CNC + RA1 original when Remastered exists.
The rest is good though
Really hoping for RA2 Remastered. The original CNC Remastered is fun, but sadly due them not fixing the AI, still fairly impossible to beat a lot of missions.
Fucking burn it
What did happen to EA?
Their games seem alright now
They still do the cashgrab sports games that fund their whole enterprise
But let's be real, that's kinda the whole point of those games nowadays
But EA does fund indie games and even develop fully fledged actually quality singleplayer games
It was fun to hate on EA like 10 years back, but then they kinda slowed down, then Joseph Fares came around and said that EA just funds his whole studio with nothing in return
Now they are funding Tales of Kenzera: Zau which looks pretty damn fun
A gold spec in a pile of poop doesn't make it good.
Are you mad
I'll reserve my curiosity when they release the next big Battlefields, Dragon Ages, etc
They seem to have a decent track record lately
Not hating on EA, not by any means
It's just that they have a habit of forgetting about their old games, so seeing Steam event with EA classic games... yeah, quite unusual
they have a habit of forgetting about their old games
Unless it's Sims 4
A single game came out that wasn't shit from EA but even that was plagued with issues in 2023
And yes ok they fund indie games.
They didn't release anything this year you donut ofc it was in 2023
Ok? My point being EA still deserves the hate they get.
Last year they released Dead Space which was great, F1 23 which is typically pretty good Codemasters franchise, new Star Wars singleplayer game
(and a bunch of sports cashgrabs)
The Jedi series is pretty good
Jedi series is fantastic
Hence listing that myself
But I still don't see that as EA as respawn are kinda their own thing under EA
Which is probably why they do so good
I'm looking at games they published and to find the last actually bad game (outside of sports games cause frankly idgaf about that, you're a donut if you play those) it was literally Battlefield 2042 3 years back
They haven't really done much bad lately
Immortals of Aveum
That one's a bit bleh
Still sits at mostly positive on Steam
Unlike 2042 which was a downright disaster
Didn't they release a battlefield mobile game xd
Idk I don't pay attention to mobile
Cancer market
I am cautiously optimistic to what they will release this year
Dragon Age: Dreadwolf is this year iirc
Wow I just realized how little reviews there are for Immortals of Aveum which is nuts.
I have 0 faith it will be good but it's a new Dragon Age
Holy shit lol
I mean it didn't sell shit
Has more than double reviews though 
80 euro game 
Tbh though, I can't say much about forspoken but it looked hated for memes
The clips I saw weren't that bad
Damn, CNC Generals has crashing issues regardless of using fixes I'm reading, that's too bad.
Unironically though, I get that EA sees a lot of money in the Sims franchise
But please make Maxis work on Spore 2 
Either way I don't like EA
There are great reasons not to, same with Bethesda
But idk they seem fine rn
Wellz
I am more preoccupied hating Ubisoft lol
When Ubisoft goes away then I'll go back to something else
But I need Ubi to fuck off first
You ain't wrong in both occasions
Indeed
Unironically though, EA's big test will be simple, will Dragon Age Dreadwolf suck ass
RPGs are so hard to do nowadays
I did kinda like um
You either have soulless shit like Starfield or the good ones that take near 10 years to do like BG3
Shit what was it called
How have I forgotten one of the biggest game series from Ubi
Far cry 6
Despite all it's flaws
Dreadwolf so far seems to be off to a rocky development, cause development wasn't great
Far Cry hasn't been good imo since 4
At least it wasn't the reason for me, they just bore me.
I liked 6 because of the world and villain, female danny was great.
And one of my favorite things was when driving she sang which was so fun haha
But the ending was pretty shit tbh
And the filler was dragged
Because they actually had a marketing budget, unlike the other
Always fun to see major marketing campaigns have no sales
And then Palworld releases out of nowhere and claims 2nd place of concurrent players count on Steam of all time 
I doubt it made half that in sales
How did they mess up
If you say so - I literally - NEVER - heard of the game till articles about it absolutely flopping came out 😄
Forspoken on the other hand was everywhere.
It was at every single event
It was just so boring looking my brain filtered it out
It just kinda looked generic af
If you mean "awards shows" then I have never watched one, never plan to. I haven't seen a single soul talking about the game organically anywhere, nor seen any articles in passing.
Ye
They had insane casting too
Idk what happened
But it also ran like shit tbf
They literally had a whole section at SGF
Idk how you missed it
BG3 happened
It released like few weeks after Baldur's Gate
All I heard about Aveum is that it's going to be THE GAME, BESTEST AND GREATEST
Nothing more about it
I still have no idea what is it about 
When everyone was still talking about BG3
Literally none of these acronyms mean anything to me.
Summer game fest
Which is... what
Geoffs summer event instead of E3 basically
Aha.
I wish the battlefront collection would release already

If only they did this for OW1

@small comet 
ok one more reason to not play
im legit scared Nintendo are gonna target the Steam Deck next
Since yuzu was mostly used on that
"for enabling piracy"
what
what
that doesnt track in the slightest
nintendo logic doesnt track
The Steam Deck isn't a piece of software. It is a computer.
Unless Valve were releasing an emulator, your concern has zero warrant.
what
nintendo argued that yuzus patches for games that arent released can have only be done via piracy for piracy as there was no reason to have these in the codebase before release of the game. furthermore they sold access to official early builds via patreon.
if you combine those 2 its enabling piracy
none of those 2 has to do with anything but yuzu
this would be like banning screwdrivers cause people can open devices with them
You might not agree with Nintendo’s decisions by the absolutely follow a certain logic
also trademarks and copyrights need to be actively defended to stay as such i believe
And even with valve would put out piracy guideline and tutorials at best they could go after some parts of steam not the deck
Trademarks yes, copyright no
i would imagine courts take not protecting copyright in similar situations as precedent
Nope
so if there was a second emulator that does exactly the same as yuzu does with the same source code and such you think the courts wouldnt go why are you only attacking one and not the other when both dont have permissions for this
dont give apple ideas
Nope the court will look at the case and the case alone, if defense brings in that something else was not attacked it will not be let in because it’s not relevant
ok apparently courts are dumber than i thought
It might sound dumb at first but this is the better way for everyone involved
Also it need to be a actual court case to be used as precedent
So since yuzu settled it can’t be a precedent anyway
well yes but it also means if they could have won its not a precedent
Uhh I don’t get your point there
if they didnt settle and they would have won it would have given other emulators stronger legs to stand on
now we wont know if they would have actually won or lost
Sure
But most likely the issues they would not still lost on like sharing pre release stuff etc. would have still finished them imo and that’s why we don’t see Nintendo go after ryujinx for example
good question. id love to see the alternate universe where they didnt settle
maybe they also just settled cause they didnt wanna spend so much time in court cause this prob drags ages
I mean they still have to pay in this settlement so I still hold the opinion if it was just about emulation some firm would have taken on the case for the same or less or even pro bono
i mean yes they have to pay but it doesnt take up months or years of your life however long such a big case could go
never been sued for something similar so idk
Yeah that’s a fair point
But you also don’t have to be in court every day or so for these years as a non lawyer
yeah but it does weigh on people from what i hear/read online from news or videos
Yeah that depends on the person
Some would love having a chance sticking it to Nintendo
i mean some just love bringing justice like karl jobst vs billy mitchel
The issue is cash. It would take 10s of millions to fight Nintendo
its either cash, time/life or insecurity related
insecurity as in not sure if they could even win
just 8 minutes to install and login into ChimeraOS
compared to like 30 minutes, at least, to go through Windows 11 OOBE + system updates
if it was just about emulation some firm would have taken on the case for the same or less or even pro bono
Why would anyone take that case for free
They would have to front all that money until they possibly recover it when they win
because if its a clear or very likely win there is a good chance they can get get teh opposing party to cover their costs and you get the pr bonus of being the firm that beat nintendo in court
That's not how it works
Even if you have a clear chance of wind recovering the money is not guaranteed and especially not recovering enough to fully recoup your cost
well yeah obviously
i love the taste of democracy in the morning
Unless it's a civil injuries case most pro bono lawyers are really just charity
and laughing at freddy fazbear
but thats also why nintendo is not just slamming every emulator
because if thats all they know they would lose without it getting complicated and expensive
Because they can
