And how well do you think that’s going to work? Sounds like a shitty service maybe five people will subscribe to, and then it dies a year later.

We’ve had subscription services like this already. I don’t hear much of them anymore… Or at all… So I presume they’re all dead.

The only reason I got a Switch 2 is because a company selling them here in Denmark made a HUGE pricing error. So I got a Switch 2 and Mario Kart World together for just 99 DKK, or 15 USD.

I do once in a blue moon.

Morrowind, if you’re using OpenMW, also has multiplayer.

No, like a legit game engine that is advertised as “console ready”.

Well, you’ll be glad to hear that Toyota, yes, that Toyota, announced a new open source game engine, with deep integration of Blender 3D.

Obviously. And it’ll be just as broken. Show it’s technical age even more.

Stoat has no voice chat and streaming.

The problem with decentralised alternatives to Discord isn’t just the set up time.

Me and some of my friend group are pretty technical and we’re willing to jump through all the hoops and difficulties to make our own little cluster of federated self-hosted servers.

The problems start occurring when we actually look at what these open source alternatives are actually capable of. And… Uh… It looks bad. Voice chatting and streaming and text channels on the same client are an absolute must.

I prefer quality over quantity. Problem is we don’t have quality, even for games that take a long time.

Not even push to talk!? What the fuq?

No! How dare they add useful features! Why won’t give they give MY shitty online game store a chance by not providing customers with useful tools!? This is so unfair! I gotta sue them!

Have you considered self hosting Matrix?

But… But… They pinky promise it’s all secure, and that they won’t hold any of your data! You can’t trust a pinky promise? You monster!

This dumb shit isn’t acceptable, and if I see something like this I just don’t go to the website.

Shopping kart

Yes. The shopping kart feature. Something online stores and webshops came with when the Internet looked like MS Paint.

Somehow absent on a modern platform…

They’re doing that because they want their own walled garden.

As of late 2025, Just Eat now belongs to Prosus.

It’s a Hades rogue-like and a colony management game. But it’s not deep on either front.

The combat and rogue elements don’t come close to a dedicated rogue-like game as Hades.

The colony management doesnt come close to the depth of a dedicated management game.

It is centred around the novelty of a taboo: managing and dictating a cult. There are plenty of little things to do besides the two pillars of the game, but it doesn’t take long for you to have “seen it all”.

Mind you, this doesn’t mean the game isn’t fun. But it’s very light on its individual gameplay mechanics compared to dedicated games.

Sucks to be you.

I’m keeping it around because at some point in the future the Switch 2 will get hacked, and boy am I going to have some sailing to do.

RTS, RPG, Space Sims. Whatever Helldivers 2 is, maybe… I only played one game like that.

I got mine for 99 DKK including Mariokart because the shop selling it fucked up their discount. Best value I’ve ever gotten. XD

So are other MOBAs. Doesn’t stop them from being crap.

Hey, do you wanna bet that the people who can’t stop playing this are the same people who are generally stuck to MOBAs?

Hopefully not a fade-to-black this time. :V

And it still looks uninteresting.

Looking forward to how they’ll do that.

Visual Capitalist says they make all their own graphics (so not just grabbed from the Web) from a “veriaty of tools from Adobe Creative Cloud”.

Adobe has been making a huge push for so-called “AI tools” in their Creative Cloud service.

“Don’t worry about” is the primary reason to start worrying.

Seeing is believing.

Then don’t play my future games.

When I develop my game I’m going to prevent players from skipping cutscenes on first viewing.

Gods, some people are just undeserving…

Videogame us called videogame because it is a game that displays itself with video. You seem to be missing that videogames come in genres, like music, books, and movies.

Desensitised… Or fucked up? :)

He looks to be wearing some sort of symbols that refer to Braccus Rex, a tyrant king. Maybe this is a whickerman situation where the locals celebrate the death of Braccus Rex with a live sacrifice dressed as one?

A kind of flower, can’t remember the name… Blood rose? But it’s a demonic type of flower that only grows in soil that has been tainted with extreme suffering. Might have something to do with the Void…?

Probably some sort of Void corruption, I would reckon. DOSII literally had people and creatures boiling, then exploding, into Void creatures.

Yes.

You don’t know a thing about Divinity or Larian if that’s your takeaway. XD

I only spent 99 DKK (Danish kroner) on a Switch 2 + Mario Kart World because a local company briefly fucked their pricing.

The system is certainly worth 99 DKK, that much I can say. Though… I find myself mostly still graviting to emulated MK8D.

The choice of CryEngine was because of Crysis, a game that was infamous for PC killing visuals. Roberts doesn’t just want a gran open universe, but also something that looks like real life.

Which is why on two occasions new ships were put off from development in order to competent overhaul existing ships to look better, as better graphics became the norm.

I’m surprised development hasn’t completely paused once again to overhaul everything for raytracing.

Well, some of those actors know him. Mark Hammel has worked with him before in Wing Commander.

But yeah, you’re right; same old Roberts.
