Less so in favor of exclusives and moreso baffled by how barren the PS5 is for them since it’s such a major driver of console sells. Especially given how many indie and AA studios would probably be willing to give Sony exclusive rights if they chucked the budget of failed projects like hero shooter whatsyamacallit with the botch retro scifi aesthetic.
Upside is that it means they’ll go full throttle until they smash into the economic equivalent of a pilon barrier. Maybe we’ll get lucky and see some of them kill themselves a la people jumping to their deaths at wallstreet when the great depression set in.
Look a man can dream, and I dream of death and bloodshed.
While it’s still under the RTS side of things it’s not really known outside of the fabase so I would suggest overhaul mod Dawn of War: Ultimate Apocalypse. It’s a heavily modded version of the original Dawn of War games and is quite fun. Ever wanted to drop nuclear artillery on your friend who’s chucking mecha at you? How about air dropping what amounts to a Maus but bigger into the rear lines of an AI who’s pissing you off? You can do that and more with this mod.
Also that argument isn’t really as great as it was in the PS3 or PS2 era where a lot of games either didn’t come out on PC, had weird versions, or ran like shit for no reason. Plus I can play a game released in 1996 one minute and then switch to a game released in 2026 since PC is basically universally backwards compatible.
As I understand it the original plan was to cover the Heresy over like 10 books or something like that but then it just kept ballooning. This resulted in issues like Fulgrim falling to chaos really fucken fast and for stupid reasons only for him to more or less jack off for the rest of the Heresy which while fitting for a Slaaneshi champion is still kinda disappointing.
Best advice I can give is to look at online auctions, estate sales, and check out to see if there are any Goodwill’s near you that specialize in electronics. You can run a lot of modern games on 10 to 5 year old hardware, probably won’t be the prettiest build but hey if it works. Also remember you can always tear open a modern laptop for that sweet sweet storage.
What Sekiro type mechanics? It basically has nothing outside of the timed combat mechanics which are far from unique amongst various games, hell I’m pretty sure Jedi Academy which has combat mechanics closer to Daggerfall or Mount and Blade had a timed party mechanic though I could never figure it out.
Do yourself a favor and look at the tags for a game before playing it. Looking at the steam page it has both story rich and JRPG as tags, this is basically tag speech for long fucking cutscenes.
Also there are rumors that that was effectively a recruitment video which would also push it to very early stages of development. Makes sense though probably better for a large project to get a bunch of people from the start and delay development a bit at the beginning than to delay development later due to fuckery.
There’s also the factor of the death or at least severe weakening of regional cultures, think your old Californian desert, Appalachian, or Old Boston cultures. A lot of these were weakened or even wiped out by the Great depression, Dust Bowl, and post war migrations, meaning that even the stronger of these more regional cultures can barely flex even in their own areas.
While it’s obviously misguided there is a reason rural folks are so conservative, the source isn’t necessarily political it’s because they recognize that their culture is weakening to the mainstream Pan American culture but assume it’s political since they don’t really have the language to figure out otherwise.
Makes sense, even just for playing old games it’s more optimal. Be it for graphics, load times, or just multiplayer if you want to play a game from say the Xbox 360 PS3 era its probably better to just get the game on PC. Also given how much of a relative flop the current console generation has been yeah…
They did save quite a few artifacts, but there are plenty more that they just stole with no good reason. Like the Parthenon reliefs(?) Greece has been largely stable since it’s independence was won from the Ottoman empire WW2 not withstanding, or any Scottish artifacts the English sully with their hands, or quite a few Egyptian artifacts. Though I do think artifacts should be split between the home country and the excavation teem be it University or country specific or whatever.
The only games I know of that need to restart every once in awhile are Paradox games and ultra modded Bethesda games. Paradox because sometimes the game needs a restart to let the AI reprioritize and for Bethesda it’s because of memory leaks that become a problem after too many mods. The fact that Borderlands 4 is that bad out of the box is fucking sad.
Just to give a more shit show example there’s also Yandere Sim. Theres so much to that shit show that I can’t even get into, mostly cause I’m fucked up on Tylenol. Point is there are multiple documentaries on YouTube about how that fucker just kept stringing folks along and self sabotageing for years.
One of the hardest times I’ve laughed my ass off was at a one of those semi surreal uncanny 3d porn games. Can’t remember what it was but it scared the shit out of my cat who was sleeping under my desk, have the scars to prove it.
Also if anyone wants to look at porn games F95zone"dot"to is a pirate forum which is good for keeping track of in dev ones or just if you don’t want to possibly waste money on a porn game you may not like. Also the dot is in quotes cause I am not sure how the mods would react to me posting what amounts to a porn link.
You play nids in 40k don’t you.
