Landlord Justifier 3

Now that you mention it, the only way to be a good king in that game is by owning all the property, which is the only reliable way to get the money needed for the choices that don’t fuck the citizens. One of the biggest letdowns is not being able to kill that filthy mr industrialist

I wonder whether the card game will be any good, or if they’ll make a mix of pokemon with yugioh just to spite konami on top of nintendo

I played Fable 3 around 2017 I think? Ok game, but Fable 1 was much better. Felt like they veered too much on making it linear. I wish M$ would release Fable 2 for PC, but that’s unlikely

Rakuel’s post on steam is very interesting

I made this game during the summer in couple months and thought to use AI because in university there is so much brainwashing on students and all the tools are given for free, so I could generate unlimited images for free and so.

Emphasis mine. Universities playing a role in this annoys me a lot.

Some AI companies can use this game just existing as a reason the get more investment for their AI companies, that benefit no one, but rather suck resources from the economy from hard working people.

I think this part alone is incredibly important and the real eye-opener for him.

HB was good when you could set the entirety of your purchase to go to developers. Now they greedily force you to divert a minimum to themselves

Linux isn’t the thing that’s driving Steam’s profits, tho.

I keep forgetting to check it every week to grab a game. Never installed a single one via EGS, but pirated a few later on, though it’s no longer piracy if it’s a game I legally own :)

The main advantage of not seeking profit at all costs is satisfied customers who are very likely to return, who’da thunk?

They can’t even fix their stupid engine to make it not shit on graphics anymore. Seriously, UE5 makes great graphics look like shit because of a bajillion forced effects and filters, like temporal antialiasing.

Been fucking around with pals in Palworld again. Also trying to get matching free time with a friend so we can play Space Marine 2

Like a gambling addiction if you think about it. “No no no, THIS will be THE game that will make us Fortnite money!!!”

Speaking of DLC happy, hi, I’m the blood DLC for Total War games!

I made a review on Steam as well, not as lenghty as this one. I also wrote a giant whole ass essay (>11k words) that might serve as script for an hours-long video review in portuguese, if I ever come around editing the footage. Should I finish that, I’ll be sure to try and contact the devs so they watch it, even if it looks like they’d rather never touch the game again

Does the game still have denuvo nowadays?

I’m willing to bet the fault lies with Epic and their shitty store app

Sega relies entirely on Sonic fans’ goodwill to remain “reputable”, everything else they’re absolute assholes. Good time to remember that Sammy, a pachinko business, saved Sega with a merger back in 2004. Execs knew damn well that it was much better for their PR to be called Sega, despite Sammy calling the shots.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they did. Whether they bothered to load them is a different matter.

4k textures that crash the game

“They will be made redundant” Corpospeech is a fucking cancer.

I never heard of that game. Seems like a mix of fall/stumble guys and light dungeon mechanics

That’s despite a multi-million dollar marketing budget for the game, which included a dedicated video from Mr Beast’s Gaming YouTube channel with a custom set and dozens of content creators.

Great job, you guys, you really know your target audience.

You might want a pirate steam copy if it’s one of the games that isn’t properly updated on gog, which is unfortunately common with newer (2016+) games

Buy on gog if it’s there. Buy on steam otherwise. Keep a pirate copy handy either way.

Also, sometimes games on gog don’t receive DLC or patch updates because the devs/publisher forget or don’t care. I remember seeing an extensive list of games, ~250, explaining what they had missing. I think A Hat in Time was one of the worst offenders

Here’s a gog forum post on the problem - https://www.gog.com/forum/general/gog_is_it_truly_more_difficult_for_developers_to_update_their_games_on_gog/page1

ping 103.224.182.241 gives me a “general failure”. At least I can still find stuff via qbittorrent’s builtin search

A lot of devs stopped giving a flying fuck to disk space and performance a long time ago. “32GB of RAM and 500GB of disk space? Don’t mind if I do!” - for a pixel art 2D platformer

Huh, the site isn’t opening for me at all, DNS_PROBE_ERROR or ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED on my browsers. I wonder if it’s a country-wide block in Brazil? I saw some news yesterday on the police raiding pirate servers

Don’t forget all the “web3” games on EGS that are the future, too!

Careful, his suction might leave you ball-less

There are a few that are actually fun as games, Tifa Tanx2 being the only example that comes to mind, it’s a fun Kung Fu (NES) like beat’em up with easy combos. There are even some work-safe gameplay videos of it on YT

A lot of the games are visual novels, this is where you find a decent variety of styles, though a lot of them use daz3d models, which I don’t like. I’d wager that hentai games are like 60% VNs, 30% RPG Maker, 10% everything else

Hentai games are my guilty pleasures in that regard

Obligatory tutorials. Make it a choice.

QTE “final bosses”. Seemed to be a much bigger problem in the PS3/360 era.

“Open world” or “Sandbox” games that don’t care about your progress, where it’s painfully obvious that your actions don’t matter at all. Yes, this is mostly about Starfield

Games where you can win by a landslide but the computer/story goes “Hah, you were just lucky!”

If it would be available in stores like nintendo, I doubt people there would be much issue regarding high price.

Depends. I still remember when the PS4 price was unveiled in Brazil. Back then, it cost the equivalent of ~1700 dollars

The business hive mind cannot comprehend a company making so much money without shareholders demanding line go up every hour

In other words, Baszucki claims that the reason for the dip in safety spending is directly linked to the adoption of AI systems. One of those moderation systems, announced over the summer, was supposedly designed to detect “early signs” of child endangerment. However, under Baszucki’s social media posts about the tool, you can find dozens of complaints that the AI is failing to stop harmful content.

If I ever have kids, they’ll find that every network at home will block off roblox entirely.

Pretty sure Club Penguin only let you choose from a predetermined list of ready phrases, it worked well afaik. Roblox could do that, but something something engagement

I hope those improved graphics don’t balloon the game’s install size to something ludicrous like 70GB, since the original was roughly 4GB

As RC-1138 would put it, “Times have changed”

I was thinking more along the lines of being proud of shit features that consumers despise, to the point it becomes an ad for your main competitor, like the PS4 “how to share a game with a friend” video

NTH: Hello everyone, I just found out this old game, Elder Scrolls V Skyrim, it looks super cool!

Wow, it sure is a unique game experience! I’m ordering a deluxe account right now!!

RIP Kolanaki’s SNES

I loved Secret of Mana and on several playthroughs, the hardest boss, for me, has always been that damn tiger in the witch’s castle. When it zig-zagged like a spike ball, the chances of getting wiped were huge. One hit = unconscious.
