The IGN Hogwarts Legacy review is one of the funniest pieces of games writing ever:

• This game barely works
• Inventory can hold four items
• There are two enemies
• The story and worldbuilding make no sense
• An inset about how the author is a bigot
• But I love Potter so 9/10

4 items slots what

[random field]

damn maybe this game shouldnt be cracked

[glass knot]

LOL

[random field]

at least not for a few months, at least then the crack will have whatever patches come out

[glass knot]

yeah before the reviews all i've seen was like

people on twitter saying the game was ASS posting clips from it

taken down by WB

Remember one person saying the combat is "shittier destiny"

[slate thorn]

the early access reviewer whatever gameplay that had already been out for a while seemed pretty cool 😔

[placid otter]

apparantly reviewers and outlets that mentiondd the boycott didnt get codes

"well the game barely even functions. 8/10"

"We're sure they'll patch it eventually, 9/10 :)"

Ok this one's decent

[smoky imp]

They put a trans character into Hogwarts Legacy

Yeah I am sure this will make stop people thinking at how shits it's creator is

And her name is Sirona Ryan????

[glass knot]

That's a name

[neon scroll]

What's the issue with the name

[glass knot]

But yeah adding a trans character won't really do anything

[smoky imp]

In HP many characters often get called by their last name instead of their first name

https://twitter.com/BurgundyBitch72/status/1622739098870882311?t=Xu5xexLVk1zM2w5OXbWDSA&s=19 there's also this but well maybe a bit exaggerating but the name really does feel under the nose

Memento Mori, Sed Vivere Ne Obliviscaris. (@BurgundyBitch72)

@Nortuet Its worse than that. SIRONA RYAN of Three Brooms. You've got Sir, Ryan, 'Rona, AND Aryan in the name there, plus three brooms as a crude "third leg" joke. (Could have been aaanything else, but no, three brooms.)

Twitter · Feb 6, 2023, 11:28 PM

[neon scroll]

Some of that feels like a stretch tbh. The game devs were very adamant about the lack of involvment from JKR, so it's not like she named the character for her nefarious purposes

[smoky imp]

Honestly especially the last two names feel like a stretch

But it still gives off a weird vibe

[neon scroll]

idk, looks like a perfectly normal fantasy setting name to me

[smoky imp]

Also apparently she is just a random character in a single side quest and a last minute adaptation

So well

It feels like one of these look how inclusive we are moment

[neon scroll]

Like, if you told me that's a main character in a YA novel I'd say yeah, sounds about right

[smoky imp]

To be fair

[glass knot]

I'll agree that the three brooms part does sound like awful jkr stuff but I doubt she's involved w that

[smoky imp]

It does give off YA names

Yeah I think it's rather an issue from the devs part

Rowling wouldn't put a trans character in even if her life depends on it

[glass knot]

She definitely would and they would be really evil

You're talking about the author who literally has a book where a character gets cancelled online for holding opinions and dedicates pages and pages of it to having actual tweets attached

She definitely would.

[smoky imp]

I forgot about that lmaoooo

That was the funniest shit ever

The character even got murdered for her shitty opinions lmaooooo

Alright she would

343 added community-made maps into Halo Infinite Matchmaking, wow

[warm pumice]

This late in the game?

[warm pumice]

Nice

[dry gale]

atleast they included the maps eventho it took them 1 year

but they also told it will be evolving in future

Ig there won't be any campaign DLCs for Halo Infinite as they are working on implementing Halo in Unreal Engine... so they will continue with Infinite until it dies

[warm pumice]

Honestly haven’t kept up with it and don’t even know what they implement so far

[warm pumice]

Did Halo 4 or 5 have DLC as well?

I just been playing the campaign on the MCC

[dry gale]

they are a different story, Halo Infinite is totally different from them

they told they will support the game for the next 10 years

[warm pumice]

Oh damn

Talk about commitment

[dry gale]

it won't happen honestly

they need to work on the unreal engine to make the switch to new engine

I mean... other platforms are at 80 bucks for new AAA titles. Wouldn't be surprising if Nintendo wanted in on that.

[random field]

other platforms have the excuse pumping out highly detailed and demanding games though

not even the biggest nintendo apologists can justify paying $70 for a game that isnt even full HD or 30 fps

Microsoft's 'Call of Duty' deal to harm gamers: UK antitrust body

British antitrust regulator said Microsoft's $69 billion deal to purchase 'Call of Duty' maker Activision Blizzard would harm gamers as it would result in less innovation. The regulator added the deal may weaken rivalry between Xbox and PlayStation consoles. "Our job is to make sure that UK gamers are not caught in...crossfire of global deals," the regulator's investigation chairman said.

how it would harm us? lol

Gamers will enjoy it... there's nothing harm in that

[placid otter]

eh, both xbox and activision blizzard are already very weak in innovation imo. won't make a difference there

[sand mural]

antitrust: involving laws or actions that are intended to make business competition fair and** to prevent any company from being a monopoly**

[glass knot]

Innovation

Call of Duty

But yeah idk even if it could be beneficial to activ/blizzard it's also just big company engaging in monopolistic behavior as they usually do

Which is always bad

[minor bolt]

cod is too much of a household name at this point

it doesn't matter how much money and marketing is thrown at developing a competitor, it's way too big to be caught up with

tsk they wanted to join the ride

[random field]

this is basically a "we're doing it because we can get away with it" kinda thing

unless news comes out that the game is bigger than the current biggest switch game (which i think is The Witcher 3, not sure) its hard to really justify that price

the most interesting part is that pikmin 4 comes out after TOTK and its still priced at 60

[minor bolt]

i was gonna say hopefully nintendo fans realize companies arent their friends but we all know that wont happen

[placid otter]

they changed nothing. saw a vgc articls mentioning their not working on new hardware or software and instead will continue fo focus on the 122 million switch units

[glass knot]

Makes sense

Imagine having to do another mario kart and smash game

After mk8 deluxe and smash ultimate lol

There's just too much stuff on these games, they really can't follow it up, specially when it's still selling well, both console and games

They could uhh probably invest more on actually funcional online and maybe get better hardware so devs can have more headroom for the switch but eh

[minor bolt]

don't really need to do anything when your fanbase eats up any slop you give them

[glass knot]

Is smash ultimate's online still ass

I remember a lot of people complaining about it

It's probably still crappy ig

[sand mural]

anyone playing dark and darker demo on steam

how extensive is da demo might try on weekend

[agile gust]

they confirmed that prices are set on a case by case basis

pikmin seems to be $60

price didn't change for me its the same as BOTW

mario and zelda will probably be $70 from now on

[agile gust]

weird bc I remember seeing an article saying they're focusing on a new console rather than a new switch model

unless they changed their mind again

also not working on new software? as in games?

[placid otter]

didnt post the tweet as i doubt its true, but i assume software meant something like the OS of the switch?

def never gonma stop making games that would be weird

[agile gust]

they weren't doing anything with that anyways

idk why they even have a themes menu in the settings if they don't plan on majorly updating the software anymore

[neon scroll]

So they actually did it, lmao

[warm pumice]

But aren’t collector edition more pricey though and varies from game to game?

But base being $70 is wild

[digital crane]

CAP xenoblade wave 4 dlc looks GOATED

no silksong but DAMN that was a decent direct

Fans: "Damn, what a good direct!"

[valid lava]

and thats only steam

[placid otter]

so 1m then pog

[stray blade]

Pikmin 4 is still 60€ + botw and smash have always been more expensive in Europe than other switch games so I don’t understand why you’re so surprised about it

[neon scroll]

Who said I'm surprised.

[stray blade]

You sure looked like it, sorry if I was wrong. Would you like to talk about pikmin 4 now?

[dry gale]

man I need this game but expensive

Off the top of my head I’d say queen of hatred as least favorite and red hooded mercenary/big and will be bad wolf as favorites

A longtime dream of gamers has become a reality now: you can talk to NPCs inside video games.

Not by choosing dialogue options but by literally typing to them whatever you like and expecting a coherent context-appropriate response.

How about no

[glass knot]

How about hiring a competent writer that can actually think about how characters interact

[fleet wave]

that's a pretty cool tech demo but a whole game like that wouldnt work

[glass knot]

Really depends on what kinda game you're making

[random field]

I bet next they’ll have the character voiced using an AI sampling a famous voice actor without their permission

[glass knot]

If your game is about dialogue then yes

Like idk

Façade

That one game

The oculus guy already has us covered with the headset that kills people if they die in game

Add a deepfake generator to that and you're golden

[glass knot]

But yeah besides that I don't see that many spaces where it can be implemented But well that's 100% gonna be used now to create videogame dialogue instead of hiring writers

[neon scroll]

At that point games lose any rights to that claim of being a form of art btw

And instead become a parody of it like, you know, AI generated art

[placid otter]

would be hilarious if its like the stuff athene recently has been doing on stream

What happens if I tell the NPC to stan loona?

are there any splatoon players in here and if so is it worth it buying splatoon 3 this year
im just scared that im getting into the game too late or something

which ik sounds weird since the game is a year old but i remember wanting to get splatoon 2 and they announced the last splatfest as soon as i went on the eshop

so im paranoid

[random field]

I think splatoon 1 and 2 had like two years of updates and support

[agile gust]

[random field]

Splatoon 3 only came out like 5 months ago

[agile gust]

yeah but

idk I just dont like being late to things

i wanted to get zelda but idk if its not too expensive and if I wont drop it half way through like i did BOTW and then just not play it bc I had other games to play

and i loved botw

i just cant bring myself to finish it

plus with splatoon 3 needing NSO and stuff

i overthink man!! i always need to justify a purchase with something and with splatoon games having a pretty short lifespan for an online game i just dont know if its worth but i really wanna get into splatoon

but splatoon 4 will probably release on the next console which i probably wont own when it comes out and its just leaving a bad taste in my mouth

[random field]

I think you’ll be fine if you get splat 3 now. Plenty of time to enjoy it.

[agile gust]

I'd probably be getting it in like 3 months

idk if that changes anything

still though knowing me ill just drop it randomly and then play it the moment support ends

i think ill just get something else.

cant risk it

[placid otter]

tldr nintendo sucks

[agile gust]

true

[random field]

For supporting their game for two years?

Huh

Weird complaint

[agile gust]

u don't support an online game for only two years

[sand mural]

splatoon's not a live service game theres 0 microtransactions

its da most generous, FOMO-free online shooter ive played

even their stuffs from their past 'battle passes' u can get later

[cinder rivet]

this "later" never comes if game lifespan is 2 yrs

[sand mural]

ppl didnt drop splatoon 3 between 2019 and 2022 just because theres no new content anymore

r ppl so attuned to live service games dat they can only play a game if theres new stuffs in it constantly now

dat comes at a cost u know

[cinder rivet]

3/4 of valorant and csgo players dont even spend money on in-game stuff

[sand mural]

ye but dat remaining 1/4 r whales dat spend hundreds each season

devs only target those

those who cant spend cant spend no matter wat fomo tactic u use

[cinder rivet]

wrong

devs target ppl who spend often

so in most cases ppl who buy battle passes

battle passes and skins

are the most profitable things

and devs focus on ppl who tend to buy every single battle pass (or most of them)
and this is why more popular characters (if game has different ones) get more skins than less popular ones

whales are very small % of players

and they give companies a lot less money than tons of ppl who buy just battle pass

[sand mural]

nah i didnt just think of dat i did read it somewhere

its common business practice, target da big spenders

dats y so much time is spent on da differentiation and targeting process

[cinder rivet]

this is ONLY true if game is p2w

[sand mural]

either way remembered another gud example of a generous game dat just relies on fun gameplay to retain players

team fortress 2

zero content update since 2017

hasnt left top 10 most played game on steamcharts ever

not necessarily

even skins and battle passes can cause hella FOMO

(ik cause ive spent hundreds on collection events in apex for heirlooms)

(which r like knife skins in csgo)

[cinder rivet]

most of the skins in most of the games are premanent anyway

premanently in shop i mean

or come back in random/fixed rotations

only battle passes have fomo skins

that are gone once bp is gone

[agile gust]

i mean idk

personally if i spend 60 dollars on an mmo i expect it to be supported for more than 2 years

like idk if thats a hot take or smth

[sand mural]

i think only mmo dat generous is guild wars 2

rest is subscription based live service model

[placid otter]

iguess new world, but doesn't feel like it will last too long

[neon scroll]

NW needed a soft reset after fixing their shit to fix the fundamentally broken forever economy

But alas

The whole thing with Hogwarts Legacy is, I very much get the stance specifically many Trans people are taking, which is "I don't care if you're playing that game, but don't pretend to be an ally, cause you're not. You've made you choice."

[smoky imp]

i mean

it's not wrong what they said so yea

you made your choice

[placid otter]

just watched what a genius LOL

[warm pumice]

Goat game

Patch coming soon for pc users

If it ain’t huffling,it ain’t puffing 🟡⚫️🦡

[fallow vessel]

I honestly think that this harrasment of people that play it is gonna hurt the trans community more than JK Rowling did

[warm pumice]

I don’t use Twitter so I don’t know the deal over there but it’s Twitter so can’t assume much reasoning over there but on Tik Tok,I ain’t seeing shit about it

That’s my experience

[digital crane]

this is equally stupid imo because rowling is very detached from the game in itself

the single connection that she has to the game is being the writer of the source ip

she got royalties and that's it

the dev team aren't problematic, there's nothjing transphobic (or antisemitic since a lot of twitter users are revising history to paint the devs as antisemetic) in the game itslef

it's like rick and morty

the creators are pos but if someone else adapts rick and morty (which im pretty sure is the case since the og creators aren't directly involved in writing/production anymore) will people try boycott it?

eerily reminds me of alt righters flaming "woke" shit in media, it's just driven by unnecessary hate (and bandwagon)

[minor bolt]

this is generally the case when people get militant about social issues that every day regular people don't give a shit about

[glass knot]

Unfortunately the incessant complaining on Twitter ever since this game got announced was just free advertising, and also kickstarted a dumb culture war again
The boycott was impossible in the first place. I think anyone who cares enough about JK Rowling being transphobic and considers themselves an ally will, 99% of the time, not buy the game anyways

[minor bolt]

i didnt realize it had been like 10-15 years since the last well received hp game had come out

so theres been a whole generation of people who never played one

yeah good luck boycotting that

[glass knot]

At the end of the day, this whole thing ended up just hurting the trans cause even more
Now there's more gamergate stuff around with the discourse about the ""woke mob"" cancelling streamers or whatever
Also incessantly complaining about one who was planning to play the game just to raise funds for trans charities

Pretty unfortunate overall

This game was always gonna do well

[fallow vessel]

Zepla had nice rant about the situation as well before she started

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vnllpOShkNM

[glass knot]

I get the feeling and intention behind it but it was pretty silly

Anyways fuck jk rowling

[warm pumice]

1.4gb update, not bad

[neon scroll]

It's not "equally stupid", no. And it has nothing to do with the Twt mob either, those are indeed bandwagoners who the terfs then pretend are a trans people mob with an agenda. And it's not about the devs or the game itself, it's about the fact that JKR makes money from it. JKR, a person who is at this point one of the loudest and most influential terfs on this whole planet and who is very vocal about how she thinks everyone who consumes any sort of HP content agrees with her world view and confirms it.

Oh yeah

[fallow vessel]

also adressing the comments like "don't pretend to be an ally of trans people if you play this" etc.

the launch of TDM was pretty disappointing so its nice to see theyre quickly making changes

TDM shouldve been a quick game to play, but instead having 3 rounds, the game could end up taking as long as a BR match

hopefully theyll be able to solve the problem with quitters but im not going to get my hopes up.

[glass knot]

THANK GOD

I didn't even play it yet cause i KNEW

This shit was gonna happen

LOL

On control the moment you start losing people are just gone

Having 3 round TDMs is just silly specially on this game
people lose one round and bounce

[random field]

i still think 50 kills is too much though

40 at most

30 probably wouldve been fine

[glass knot]

Also on Control back then the matchmaking was pretty weird too

Sometimes it's just be a full team against 3 people

And of course first thing they do is just leave lol

Hopefully it's better now

[random field]

TDM doesnt have any sort of matchmaking it seems so thats probably still gonna be a problem

[glass knot]

Oh no

[random field]

i dont understand why they dont just backfill when someone quits

[glass knot]

Too complicated

[random field]

when i read in the patch notes that TDM was being designed as a way to warm up before hopping into a BR i just knew this was not going to go well. people aren't going to take a mode seriously if the devs themselves are just like "yeah, kill a couple dudes then play the REAL game!"

[glass knot]

Honestly to me the best fps experience would be smth like battlefield where i can just hop in a conquest game

Vibe around

Do my thing

Have my fun

And when it's over I'm like
Yea

That but with apex gameplay

[glass knot]

Yeah i don't like this mentality too

[random field]

these guys had a great tdm in TF1 and 2. why is this so difficult 😭

[glass knot]

Man i have no idea what respawn is doing, for all I know maybe there's 7 people working on apex and the rest is doing whatever star wars project next

Since the Titanfal Legends thing was scrapped

[sand mural]

not gonna grind this apex season battle pass but just playing casually w friends is fun

[slate thorn]

I haven't touched Apex in so long, just don't really enjoy the game solo anymore, after playing solo for like, a million hours :(

great vid btw talks abt how early video game music's repetitiveness and focus on catchy melodies makes it perfect for jazz improvisation n watnot, potentially can become da new jazz 'songbook' for future generations dat grew up playin those games

[placid otter]

am too good ppl reporting me lol

[warm pumice]

Ngl,after all this time,I assumed your pfp was Kula from KoF,it wasn’t until I took a look and realized it wasn’t her

https://tenor.com/view/kula-diamond-kula-nyeh-akanbe-bleh-gif-24948586

[placid otter]

not even close lol

[warm pumice]

Must’ve been the hair

I never bothered looking at the outfit tbh,the face and hair just resembled her and just ran with it

[placid otter]

looking at jedi survivor gameplay makes me wanna try it

[pearl cobalt]

the game that keeps on going

[pliant temple]

I really hate the fact that the norm for battle passes is still them being timed

i wonder how much companies make from people buying levels to rush them

[minor bolt]

i just hate how it almost forces you into only playing one game if you want to complete its pass

juggling lol and ow passes sucks

[pliant temple]

rn i have the ow and fortnite passes

really sucking out my enjoyment of those games tbh

[pliant temple]

indeed, it was cool when fortnite first introduced the concept but then every game ever just had to have it too

[random field]

i only ever buy the pass if i complete it for free

because i cant trust myself to complete it after buying it

[pliant temple]

i've always made the mistake of buying them before completing them lol, i'll do that too honestly from now on

[random field]

the only downside now is that a lot of games have extra shit after finishing the pass. so if youre finishing the pass late in the season you might miss extra things

like overwatch has titles after the main pass. not a huge thing but still kinda neat.

[smoky imp]

Elden Ring has sold over...20 million times

[glass knot]

that's almost as many as the amount of repeated dragon fights on the game

[random field]

whats crazy is, it released with no DRM, was available to pirate on day one, and it still sold that many copies

[fleet wave]

yeah everyone loves fromsoft so they don't want to pirate

[placid otter]

i got CoD battle pass now because i got free currency over many battle passes worth and collected it to buy it.

[minor bolt]

tbf piracy is more of an ease of access thing than a price thing

[pliant temple]

deserved tbh

[neon scroll]

It's also a "I don't want your spyware 'anti cheater software' that you don't even bother mentioning when the game installs yet there it sits in the damned system files"

But re: Elden Ring, turns out people are willing to pay for a great, actually finished game that doesn't ask you to pay another 100000000$ for shitty "extra" content and is just there and fun.

If getting your genitals crushed repeatedly by some impossible boss is your definition of fun.

[neon scroll]

Ah yes, I definitely will totally play a NCSoft game for sure, they're not one of the worst companies in existence or anything

The monetization on that game will be aaaaaaaass

[random field]

yeah but at least the characters will be very pleasing to the eyes

they have that going for them

[placid otter]

really, besides their own game amazon only publishing highly monetized stuff

although that is very common nowadays

[neon scroll]

I mean yeah, it's just that NCSoft is especially bad and they have a tendency to drop whatever tf they're doing after a year or two

See: that Kpop Universe app

And then they outsource their western distribution to something like Gameforge

That last point obviously not an issue this time, but still

[glass knot]

NCSoft is one of those logos that immediately get you super worried whenever you see it

[slate thorn]

Also gets your wallet worried

[neon scroll]

But my nurse outfit for EVERY character

What will I do without buying that

[minor bolt]

nexon too

[glass knot]

True

[worldly tangle]

Denuvo Remuvo 🪄 just happen ..13 days oh boy..

[random field]

the nfo for the hogwarts legacy crack from EMPRESS is absolutely unhinged

https://imgur.com/a/1FKuCNe#AMVZ09j

killing the embed because its full of the F-word and not the fun one you do with a partner

[minor bolt]

oof

[smoky imp]

Lovely

Man

What a bitch

[agile gust]

its a shame she's the only one cracking denuvo nowadays

she's rly weird

[smoky imp]

I would rather buy a game bcs damn she should get her head out of her ass

[stable stratus]

Helping but also annoying

[worldly tangle]

need to resurrect CODEX from retirement

[stable stratus]

her subreddit and herself actually got banned

[minor bolt]

skidrow

razor1911

god those names take me back

[stable stratus]

RELOADED

(im not remember if reloaded still active or not)

[worldly tangle]

have not seen that name for so long i mostly see TENOKE nowadays new group? but i know that Razor1911 still active

[stable stratus]

i do remember ALI123

and they're still active cracking stuffs

[worldly tangle]

maybe RELOADED will comeback when EA game release

[stable stratus]

but nowadays those are getting rarer thanks to steam emus

that is undoubtly make games cracked easily with just copy and paste

and for most games too

but yea I still do miss the good ol' crack era

[worldly tangle]

they even come with installer that apply crack for you Easy Clap Pirate Era

[minor bolt]

nowadays i dont even know where to get good cracks that are known safe

just easier to buy or use gamepass i guess

even more so since steam has a good refund policy

[worldly tangle]

yea after steam become a thing i rarely crack unless i feel it too overprice ( say by a guy who pre order No Man's Sky) but well it become worth now

[random field]

|| cs.rin.ru/forum|| is probably the best site for that

[smoky imp]

https://twitter.com/MorsGames/status/1628073943675416578?t=lVqeVq9Ts3EqhCRypAjswQ&s=19 does anyone still play this

Mors (@MorsGames)

so let me get this straight

-they removed angry birds 1

• people got mad
• they brought it back as a paid game
• people decided to buy it instead of spending money on microtransactions of their other games
• they are now removing it bc they want people to buy microtransactions

2012 was a beautiful era isn't it

[dry gale]

wtf hogwarts legacy has been cracked in a short time?

it's a denuvo game though

[glass knot]

Never underestimate one highly unhinged individual

[agile gust]

i know its empress but a part of me wished hogwarts was next bc of jk rowling being transphobic

but no

it was just popular

[smoky imp]

Not surprised going by her comments but it's a shame

Tf did trans people do except exist

how does dual sense work with turn based

cross-save also cool

[slate thorn]

What's DualSense?

[random field]

the ps5 controller

full support would be things like haptic feedback and adaptive trigger support

[neon scroll]

Probably gonna runble when you throw your fireballs and hit yourself, as one does

[slate thorn]

When you accidentally hit your entire party with a spell

Oooooh

[placid otter]

ohhhhhhhh

ive barely played divinity 2, but what i did was very fun

[slate thorn]

I recently started playing divinity 2 again

This time I'm doing it multiplayer with a friend, so much fun

Especially since I'd never played it multiplayer before

[placid otter]

ive restarted that game like 4 times as ppl always quit halfway through starting island or after the island

[slate thorn]
