this. I was so interested in the game, then my friend got it early on and streamed it to the rest of us and… gotta say, visuals and audio are nice, the game just oozes mood… but it’s not a good game, imo. The combat is jank and deadly. I would have rather had a walking sim, tbh

even the minimum requires gpu raytracing? It’s forced on? o_O

TIL that actual game studios sell their games on itch.io. I thought it was just solo/indie devs’ place :o

while true, but you can’t buy UT or Unreal from gog anymore, the games were delisted ages ago.

You can still download them from your collection if you own them, but new purchases are not possible.

gamers nexus - basically anything they review gets dissected to absurd detail.

But in general I still prefer to crossreference multiple sources if I’m thinking of getting [whateverthething]

all of those look like they’re made with heroforge https://www.heroforge.com/ - or similar.

At least with heroforge you actually get a physical miniature

(edit: to be clear: no nft’s at heroforge, they just print miniatures, which you build/design with their site. that’s all)

it’s a pretty cool “wallpaper generator” or animated video insert for whatever video project you might have. Pretty, no actual gameplay, but neat toy software.

I dunno, probably not worth it for someone who has it on consoles, but as someone with no consoles newer than gamecube, I’ll wait for a discount.

Curse is pretty great, imo. The higher resolution cartoon style doesn’t feel as “vintage” as the first two games.

But, how do you want to fight, insult lemmy-commenting? You comment like a cow! /s

Atlantis would have made a pretty good movie too, imo.

I’ve only seen movies up to Crystal Skull, and… I dunno, not up to par with the 3 first ones. No idea what has happened since.

unless the new game is any good.

so far I’ve only heard that it’s closer to “immersive sims” with stealth gameplay than what machinegames generally does. While I do like me some sneaky-stealth games, they tend to devolve into quicksave/quickload very quickly. Who knows, but I’m waiting for some less edited letsplay footage and sales if it seems like I’d like it.

Point & click adventures of olden times. Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Islands 1 & 2 got remasters, hell, Monkey island got even a NEW game.

I’d insta-buy on Indiana Jones & Fate of Atlantis -remaster.

…But, tbh, still rather have a new game in same style.

appreciated!

welp, here’s waiting for a discount, maybe xmas sales will provide.

Thanks for the insight!

Not really a fan of GTA games, so… dunno if RDR is my kinda game to begin with. I do find westerns interesting at least.

I’ve played the original 2 GTA games way back when, didn’t much care for the arcade chaos. 3 and Vice city were so-so, and… GTA4…

GTA4 felt like bowling with cousin Roman more than a GTA game

Ended up quitting GTA4 during tutorialization :D

It had me going to some inane date with some lady, when I was driving her home I apparently goofed, bumped something with my car and long story short: I died by police gunfire in a minigolf track’s pond. Then game said I had to go do the date again. NOPE.

I’ve only played a little RDR2 - which I felt was a bit too much “life sim” nonsense with all kinds of minigames (fishing, hunting, dating?, whatever) and bit heavy on lengthy cutscenes, and I’ve heard that RDR1 is bit more straight forward and “game-y” - Anyone care to chime in if this is true?

If it is bit more straightforward I might be interested in this - after a hefty discount.

not much of a pvp player, but if this allows for private/friends only lobbies, this might be something for my gaming group

while davinci resolve is probably pretty top shelf as editor, just be mindful of limitations, namely: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DaVinci_Resolve#MP4,_H.264,_H.265_and_AAC_Support

DaVinci Resolve free does not support decoding or encoding H.264 and H.265 video, regardless of the container type.

Neither DaVinci Resolve free or Studio versions support decoding or encoding of AAC audio streams.

Unless you feel like buying the studio version, you can’t really use h264/h265 video codecs. For me this is pretty much a dealbreaker as I don’t have hardware which could encode eg. AV1 video reasonably - and I really don’t want to transcode recordings to different formats for editing.

I don’t think you can take your 3 curved monitors in eg. trains or other travel with you. :P

I don’t have steamdeck either, but seems like pretty dope portable system to me.

any% with glitches is pretty much always a wild ride to watch.

on that note; man I need to get back on the IGN’s playlist of “devs react to speedruns”, most devs are such good sport when it comes to breaking their game :D

TBF, generally speedrunners start speedrunning games because they love it to death (ie. have played it through several times already) and want to start challenging themselves in new ways.
