Use none of them. Embrace funny duck

Why do you think valve is under fire from every angle lately? They are winning and winning fairly and some people don’t like that.

Occasionally we get the odd tech update but they consider it basically finished now.

But the tl:dr is

• Bugs fixed

• Optimized

• Gameplay enhanced

• Dlc is amazing

Y’know they actually did

Nah you’re right. It’s overrated. It shaked the Zelda formula up and that’s all that people see in it. It has a ton of fun details in the world sure but let’s be honest BOTW has like 8 different enemies you will fight over and over. The shrines aren’t even a challenge after the first third of the game since you know the ins and outs of your abilities. Your abilities are all gained right at the start too and there’s no cool loot other than another bow or a random melee weapon.

The open world nature kills so much of the story pacing and cinematic elements we have come to expect from the series. Then there’s the whole no real dungeons thing. a Zelda dungeon used to be an all day affair. Took you hours with a challenging unique boss fight at the end. The beasts we got and the copy pasted phantom ganons were so lame.

I honestly feel like they serious took a dramatic dip in theming and focus with BOTW. It took a dramatic leap forward in innovation for the series but it really doesn’t feel like a legend of Zelda game anymore.

Tears of the kingdom is just The Legend of Zelda Nuts and Bolts. Change my mind

Boredom is your brain urging you too change your behavior. The magic of gaming will return if you take a nice break and focus on yourself and other things. At least it works that way for me.

Yeah an AI can make clone slop sure. Enjoy your slop

To make a videogame (that’s worth being played) you need to innovate and iterate and find fun in the mechanics by testing them for “fun”

An AI doesn’t inovate. An AI doesn’t have “fun”

AI cannot make an original videogame

I dare them. Striking is the peaceful compromise.

Cyberpunk 2077. It was hated on release but it really has made a comeback after 2.0 was released.

I think cyberpunk really puts so many triple A titles to shame when it comes to the quality of the characters and quests.

Dude I’m trans and hate the acolyte. It’s cause it’s shit not “woke”

There’s plenty of “non woke” media that’s shit too

Turns out if you write nothing but shit you get nothing but shit. This is a capitalism putting restrictions on the artist not our society.

It’s happened time and time again they force trends and focus tested ideas into the writing room instead of true passion. It will happen no matter the context. Shit media will just be shit media regardless of “wokeness” that’s just a current symptom of how we create media. It’s all for profit not for the sake of art.

That’s what you actually hate dude.

Add twitch integration. Viral success overnight

Oh I thought we all agreed that the Sims 4 was trash and that we would stick with the Sims 3 forever

New sims game? This is the first I’m hearing of it. A complaint thread on Lemmy. Game’s DOA

A lead Roblox dev went to prison recently for locking up children in his basement. It’s actually crazy how far you have to dig to find this news. But he got two life sentences

Anyone remember Shedletsky? Yeah that’s him

You literally opened the thread. People are gonna talk about anything you can’t stop them. You going in here like this is just foolishness.

That dlc was cooking forever. I’m so confused as to why it has the bugs it does.

You should try a wholesome cute game called Bread and Fred!!! It’s got penguins!

Then steam will still be worth it. If valve ever goes public we jump ship collectively

You’re right. The witcher 3 never grabbed me because of these reasons. It’s got such phenomenal quests and storytelling but in between feels like a chore since im just staring at the minimap the whole time. I installed mods to remove HUD elements to help fix it but I still needed a toggle for them to show me direction occasionally since the games design relies on those HUD elements to drive the player.

It’s such lazy design in an otherwise rich experience. It boggles my mind.

Im so glad the minimap genre is dying. Fucking killed gaming there for a moment.

I can’t actually recommend Starbound. It’s a game sure. And made by an indie team. But it’s past is stained. The game is also hollow and devoid of true substance and this is clear after less than 5 hours of gameplay.

FTL is a much better space themed indie masterpiece.

As with any proprietary hardware on a GPU it all comes down to third party software support and classically if the market isn’t there then it’s not supported.

DXVK is sooo good now I install it for half my games on my Windows machine just for the performance gains
