Let’s plays can be okay for new games, but I’d look into emulating something on your phone. If you crave the pc experience (which I totally get), you can probably get an old laptop for very cheap, slap linux on it and have fun.

FMV game, I wouldn’t count on it.

The few games I’ve played that had a native linux version either were too light to make a difference (FTL) or actually ran worse (paradox games), which is a shame.

Freespace is a bigger game with more ships and is more military focused. This game is more about being a mercenary/freelancer with very good voice acting and the world feels fleshed out. It’s also super easy, comparatively.

His voice and all the other voice actors add a lot to the game. Hope you enjoy it!

It’s a worse Nier Automata in almost every way.

I do think it’s interesting you find video games have an entry barrier that’s higher than, say, music, even though the vast majority of people don’t have a way to listen to vinyl, as per your own example.

Nowadays people need phones, so depending on the game they can indeed experience them is some form.

If I were tasked with this project I’d probably make the plot about Vyke. It would mirror the tarnished"s journey enough.

Try telling your users (who are gamers) that the feature they want is being pushed back. See how well they’ll react.

Including the insane grinds for no payoff (I still love E:D)

Clair Obscur really isn’t an indie game.

Length =/= quality. JRPGs specially love their bloat.

BG3 is held back by 5e mechanics a lot unfortunately.

If you like something more complex, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is pretty good.

The unfortunate reality is that the clickbait game works.

I genuinely think pot of greed wouldn’t even be that great

Everyone that doesn’t have a switch?

Over time they realised that, while holiday windows or whatever have high sales, if there’s a better or more popular game coming out then, yours will just be forgotten.

That said, most “industry specialists” are just glorified influencers, so take it with a grain of salt

The only people saying this were Ultima players from 2005 before they tried and WoW and switched.

So, is it the world first or not? They were technically the first…

Damn, lemmy is so good that it has a time machine to read comments from 2005!

With the amount of 9s and 10s coming out, why would you waste time with a 7? The polarisation is just an effect of the language of clickbait spreading in society, but doesn’t change the fact that average games are probably not worth your time.

Every game that didn’t get made is the greatest game of all time in someone’s head.

I hope this is still early in development. You can’t have a game set exclusively in a city where buildings look like that.

Yes, it squashes the steam deck, that’s what I said.

I believe the biggest issue is more to do with matchmaking trying to provide engagement rather than good assessment of players’ skills. This is obvious when you see systems where winning gives you a good amount of points/tank regardless of the opponents skill level, which just foments even more the want for easy stomps rather than good games.

Is this complaining about skill-based matchmaking?

The ease of use of the Steam Deck cannot be overstated. Yes you can tinker with it a bunch but if you just want to play your games, you download and play. The windows handhelds will never be as easy since windows is just crap for this (and MS is not interested in improving).

If you mean the switch, then it has been thoroughly squashed. If you mean phones, well I think we can agree they are not really competing for the same customers, and if you think they do, most people are buying phones for reasons other than gaming. So you’d need a way to section the market for “gaming phones” (yes, that’s a thing).

We’ll get 60 and above on pc a while later anyway. Also the sold separately thing is probably just like they did with RDR2 where you could get everything or just the multiplayer part of the game, which I personally think is fine.

And you could fine tune basically any setting.

Guild Wars 2

Almost 5k hours of FFXIV, nothing else I can check even comes close (LoL from my teenage years might win, but who knows).

Have a look at steam reviews then ponder how people would use it

Guess I’m OOL. What non-competitive games have kernel anti-cheat?

Pretty cool iteration, hopefully.

Cultist Simulator is most fun when you really know nothing about the game and you stumble into things.

Poorly received games with tons of other venues of monetization outside the box price.

Summoner class going to eat good. Guess I’ll do another playthrough of terraria.

Considering the woman being harassed explicitly stated that the harassment she received was mainly misogynistic in nature, no. It very much is relevant to the situation.
