some unfortunate takes i see from this accouncement:

theres no mention of the level editor itself being released which would make new campaigns and major edits to base campaign design impossible, beyond editing data like enemies and spells which unofficial mods can already do

also their last game DOS2 had some stupid proprietary audio format so you couldnt add new dialogue (i belive they fuckin nuked any way to export any audio to the editor), which may still be a thing in BG3


quite a dick move for them to see it to be popular enough to continue re-releasing but not translate it for other regions


thats a fuckton of server space, i didnt think playing on random official servers with no admins or good anti cheats would be that popular


search for steam forums has the worst ui they could have possibly made, quotes of posts are completely fucked


yeah i remember zenimax not sending review copies but dont remember if they did it with any other higher profile games


nothing more agonizing than listening to people with no knowledge about how 3d models or how games in general work talking about “ai generated games” or ripped models



they do lots of polish on character design then its gamefreaks turn to churn out something mediocre in a 2year dev cycle


may as well let gamefreak have permanent patent on monster capture games at this point when people want only them to create any


you do know that quality over quantity right? nobody likes bethesdas radiant fetch quests and this is that but with exposition dumping npcs


time for mods to go all in on handmade design then and delete the proc gen



these types of comments are worth nothing when you are selling a fresh product and you are studio lead


only way this engine will see any dev if they fully release the pipeline for modders to use


just weird they would not use their modern scifi universe series branding and instead use… ancient scifi universe from quarter century ago that was killed off by their most well known scifi universe series that they didnt want to work on any more


bold move by the corpse of bungie to believe anyone cares about a multiplayer-only marathon like 25 years after the last game


definitely indication of “we dont want to pay our 20-year veteran staff what they deserve”


many senior personel left after skyrim and fallout4 without making any headlines so its nothing new


EA is just a gaming company releasing yearly mtx shitboxes for whales while FIFA is global level corruption fuckfest with actual influence

These are not comparable



looks like there are few reasons for the outrage

  1. they deleted daily challenges which were reworked like a year ago and replaced it with this worse implementation (these gave lots of xp, not anymore)
  2. this is the main content update for the month?
  3. they promised to listen for feedback, but in true jagex fashion they ignore all mtx related feedback
  4. battle pass comes with buffs for some content which may spiral out of control as time goes on
  5. the game has sub fee, loot boxes, store and a battle pass which is fuckton of monetisation for less content updates than 10 years ago
  6. battle pass is LONG grind to get everything, and its probably limited time only

and this filter will totally not only work for english and falsely flags and bans people using any other language, surely



only reimagination dice seems to do these days is trying to find ways to monetise instead of making a fun game

see: their battle royale fail, 6v6 mode they wasted time on that didnt even release, heroes in 2042, battle passes




nobody has made a better team shooter so no competition


he also hasnt released anything relevant in over a decade so I doubt his charisma checks will succeed anymore
