I feel that for just a few dollars more (a lot more dollars now) I could have bypassed this inconvenience.

Ain’t this the truth. “Do I buy this thing I sort of need right now when it’s a BIT overpriced, or wait until it gets REALLY overpriced” is the modern dilemma consumers are facing across the board, it seems.

Now that all the AA’s have been ported (I am still SHOCKED we got Investigations 2 tbh) , I am hopeful that we will get a new one soon. I think Capcom has even said AA is one of the IPs that they want to grow.

And Phoenix and Edgeworth will finally kiss WHO SAID THAT

No worries, it does only show the steam link thumbnail on mobile (I was on desktop originally)

While I agree with you wrt consoles locking people in, my parents are hobby console collectors and that got passed down to me. I buy whatever comes out and sell as needed. But is it getting less fun to collect with the current gen, I’m not gonna lie. Games don’t even come on discs anymore, so a physical collection is starting to become useless.

For anyone curious: I don’t scalp/resell btw, MSRP + shipping as needed, this is a hobby not a side hustle for me.

I’m still running a 2080Ti so I’m doing ok, but it it definitely starting to show it’s age. I somehow ended up with an Intel low profile GPU from my local tech store (I couldn’t even tell you the model) for like $65USD and it had display port so I decided to plug my monitors into it, and it helped my primary GPU performance more than I expected. Maybe something to look into? Assuming your mobo and CPU can handle 2 GPUs ofc

good to know, mine’s actually currently upside down because that’s the only way the power cord reaches my outlet 💀

It’s the OG headline of the article, Graveyard Keeper 2 is coming later this year.

There’s a SEQUEL?? Man, this game was my JAM back in undergrad.

Buying the disk version of the Playstation 5 at launch might have been the best investment I’ve made this decade, followed closely by the extra RAM kit and 2TB Samsung 990 SSD I bought in Aug. 2025.

Guess I can eat avocado toast guilt-free 🥹

As someone who didn’t like Max Payne as much as other others, I’m loving this new era of Remedy.

That being said, I’m waiting for them to integrate it into the AlanWakeControlQuantiumBreakiverse (or whatever we’re calling it) somehow through the remakes.

MY BOY’S BACK WITH A NEW ASHLEY LETS GOOOOOO

Honestly, I’m really happy when I see a different artstyle from the “UE5 3rd person view and everyone’s covered in vaseline” 90% of games now have. I will be checking this out.

I’m so hype for this! Returnal was one of my favourite pandemic era games I played, and really helped me get back into gaming as a hobby. Very excited to see what Housemarque have cooked up.

Casey Hudson was the original project lead of Kotor 1 and the entire first Mass Effect trilogy. I think that’s why a lot of people are hopeful about the direction of this new game.

I’m curious too. Original Sin/OS2 are really tight turn based strategy games (with D:OS2 being the best game Larian has ever made IMO (sorry BG3 fans)), but Divinity II was an ARPG, and I would not mind seeing a Larian with actual resources trying their hand at it again.

I know Lara has never been flat. But I honestly wouldn’t put it past the “Feminine characters are sexist and wrong” modern gaming land scape to fuck that up

This has not been a trend in gaming for years, if ever. This was just Twitter outrage you fell for. Stellar Blade was literally topping the Steam charts a few months ago.

Thank you Remedy for not Epic-jailing this like with Alan Wake 2! That game is such a masterpiece that more people need to play 😭

I think Legacy of Atlantis is actually a remake of the first Tomb Raider, so I think Crystal Dynamics wanted to be like “Don’t worry guys, you’re also getting a new one” at the same time.

Yeah, this I believe. I saw the news that they sold one of their studios back to the original owners while still publishing the game they were developing. I must have missed the news about them downsizing their in-house stuff.

I looked up what studios they would be acquiring under the WB merger and uh…outside of the new Mortal Kombat, Hogwarts Legacy, and the DC games…I don’t really know if they’re going to make a big dent in the gaming sphere immediately. A lot of these already look pretty mismanaged, maybe it could get worse, but it could also get better.

But if we’re worried about moving towards even more subscription-based cloud gaming…yeah…looking at the state of gaming and hardware right now, I can’t argue with you there.

Hasn’t Netflix been “in gaming” a while? You can access a lot of games on mobile from them. I opened my Netflix Android app and just from the suggested I can play Red Dead Redemption, Story Teller, Dead Cells, Spirit Fairer, Shredder’s Revenge, Street Fighter, and bunch of Choose your own Adventure type stuff from their own IPs. They’ve been angling in to game publishing for a while.

OH I see it now. Yeah, the area with Aerith’s house is gorgeous, and I was already enamoured with it in the OG with PS1 graphics. Remake really is great with the environments.

The first screenshot for me is Rude pulling a wrestling move on Cloud, so I’m really wondering if I’m missing a joke…

It’s so interesting that the Roche fight is where you felt the combat click, because it was the exact same for me! The game got waaaay more enjoyable once that happened, haha.

I know people dog on the remake for not being the OG/overpriced/a scam/whatever, but I really enjoyed my play through.

Make that three, I also call him that whenever he comes up.

This is for newgen gamers though, isn’t it? Konami is probably banking on them seeing this as a “new game” because it’s novel for them, and paying the “new game” price.

Unless the oldheads really want to see Ocelot meow in HD…

You misunderstood: current gen isn’t getting price drops while previous gen usually did. Current gen PS5/Pro and Xbox Series S/X are all actually more expensive now factoring in inflation (excluding the impact of the tariffs) than at launch. Since the Switch 2 literally launched two months ago, we can’t really talk about price drops for it, so we compare the Switch 1. The article headline is correct, and all of this is in the body of the article.

That’s not what this article is talking about though. It’s talking about how single generation consoles don’t get any price drops anymore. The comparison isn’t Switch 1 vs Switch 2 prices, it’s launch Switch 1 vs current Switch 1 prices.

Like let’s vent about Nintendo all we want, but at least let’s read the article first.

Yeah, I really like Kotone’s SLs (ignoring Ken), especially the fact that we get an actual Ryoji SL. I think Reload not having FemC was a huge miss.

But I’m glad you’re enjoying it! I really wish Atlus kept the dual protagonists in tbh, it makes NG+ a lot more fun to go through.

Since it’s been a week, I thought I’d ask: how’re you enjoying your FemC run of P3?

This is THE Bioware game for me, I love it so much. I remember teaching myself how to rip music from video game files because the soundtrack of this game was my JAM.

RIP Bioware, wish we got a sequel to this before you got sucked into EA hell :')

The can’t even publish games properly at this point. They’re just gobbling up other studio/publisher’s products for Gamepass.

I hate to tell you this, but they announced it at TGA in 2020…which was 5 years ago.

According to their Wikipedia, Techdirt only accepted money from Charles Koch’s foundation for a lawsuit (amongst other donors), and are owned by Floor64.

Floor 64’s website only has 2 people listed in their management team, but I couldn’t dig up if either are linked to the Koch’s (I was pretty cursory about it though).

The article was worth a read for this quote alone:

VGHF library director Phil Salvador puts it even more simply: “Generative AI video is a great way to preserve video games, in the sense that mirages are a great source of water.”

The hours I spent on that FUCKING DICE GAME

Kingdom Come Deliverance wasn’t even on my radar and now I’m obsessed. The NPCs are so fucking funny

It’s Apple, ofc it is 🥲

I love Crypt of the Necrodancer, I had no idea there was a sequel. I’m so excited!!

Yeah ngl, I don’t really care for the more Elvish focus that Inquisition (and now I guess Veilguard) has. The best part of DA was always the mix of all the lores clashing.

You should play the original if you can, it really is the best Dragon Age game. Steam has a guide to get it up and running on modern machines.

Also, were you able to follow the story of Veilguard? I haven’t played it yet (and honestly I might never) but I got the impression that it was pretty tied to the story of Inquisition.

That’s still just gambling in another costume 😭
