Stealth kill missions are my bane. Really hate them, also, where when you have you have to start the mission from the beginning. At least you had fun.


Not a huge fan of multiplayer games, but can be fun with friends.

As for people who don’t like live service games, Sony has mentioned multiple times that the budget for live service games is completely separate from single player games. The issue was that they previously put their good single player studios to making these games, as long as they get proper third party or specialised studios for these and leave their first party studios for first party, I am happy.


“It’s either a passion project you spent ten years on, or you need a bunch of money to be able to hire people and resources”

From the article.


Yeah, that will also require more work and animations for each feature like this. Much easier to do in a game like this.



Heh, true. When I first looked at it after hearing so much about it I thought it was a wrong game.


Wow, it’s weird to realise that there is so much depth and features in a game that look like this 😀




I believe so, except in review build it was a minor who was riding it, and we don’t know what else was there in the “interactive dialogue sequence”



You don’t have to finish all the games. It’s okay to drop games you aren’t enjoying. In the long run, time is a much more scarce commodity than money.


That’s a nice list. Did you finish all the games you started? Or drop some games too?


JRPGs can be annoying to play multiple times.

Civ 6 (or some other strategy game like Age of Empires) and Factorio are great choice for this though.


This looks great. It may scratch that Skyrim itch.


Yeah. I think it’s because no matter how much you improve, you keep learning new stuff to make your code better, so it always feel like what you have already written is a mess.

Also, obligatory comic about code quality:



Ooh, I would love to see your commands / scripts, if you are willing to put the on some day.


Oh yeah, the modern era in Black Flag era was pretty meh. Haven’t played any AC game after that so no idea about those.


So DMCA takedowns are only for gameplay videos, they haven’t sent any takedown (or any other) notice to whoever is hosting / running / developing the custom server code.

It will be interesting to see how it progresses.



But that would change the format of the title! And while it has evolved over the time, that would feel so weird!

Also, it’s sometimes fun to see the featured picture and guess what the game is 😀


I guess large library size can be a contributing factor too. I have tons of games in my backlog and not enough time, so prefer shorter and tighter experiences, which can sometimes be difficult since my favourite genre is RPG, but I have lost interest in games that doesn’t respect your time, which is most open world games.

There are always exceptions though, just got a Platinum for Ghost of Tsushima few months back. Though I think that only happened cause a friend of mine was also playing at the same time, so discussing the things he has done or I have done kept the interest going for much longer.


they’re an evil shadowy cabal that mind controls companies and has them add brainwashing techniques meant to bring about the downfall of western society

I knew it!

/s


I liked the game when I played it and I never saw the Haytham twist coming either, I mean until the reveal it themselves. Also don’t remember that sign on his back.

I don’t think I have the stamina for these games anymore. I played Black Flag a few years back but didn’t like it and Black Flag is considered one of the best AC game by everyone.




This is pretty much why I can’t play much PC games either (even though there are some genres I love that work bes on PC). Handheld works best, or sitting on a couch in front of TV.

I love tablets as a good general purpose device, but don’t have much experience with remote play. Just check how well it works with controllers and the latency / lag.


We all go through time like that. If you like single player games, what helped me was getting a Switch (I had almost quit gaming before that), the ability to play on a handheld which you can pause (put in sleep) anywhere is a godsend. Everyone is different though, but can be worth a try. You can try getting a SteamDeck, and see if that works for you.

At the end of the day, if playing short rounds of Death by Daylight is what you enjoy the most, nothing wrong with just keep doing that.


It’s interesting when games do that, though as someone who rarely replays game, I never really notice these things.


Oooh, Max Payne!

I played them when they were released, and they were such great games for their time. Don’t remember much about the story though, some dream sequences, and there was some subway in start of the first game I believe, remember trying the slow-mo from different angles there.

Looking forward to play the remakes!


If you don’t mind playing alone, do try Subnautica, everyone claims it’s best of the genre, at least it was when it was released.


It’s in my backlog, but I couldn’t get into Subnautica (I enjoyed it while playing, but didn’t have any urge to play it again), so the genre is probably not for me. I can imagine it can be fun with right people though.


Like Saturday morning cartoons, each day is unique!

We can treat the dimension hop as Christmas special crossover episode 😀


Is “Fireman Stripper” a sustainable job in Zombie apocalypse? Just curious…

Oooh, Cable is back! According to the lore, do the characters just move from one world to another or is that some other guy with some other adopted son Cable?


Mainly play on console, but I’ll keep this in mind for future. Thanks for the tip.


That “Big Grey Guy” is one of the major reason I haven’t tried the game. And well the fact that I don’t like horror, but I am going to blame the Big Grey Guy!
