rather than just spamming memes and non sequitors based off keywords in the topic title

Yeah I thought that was just reddit, but we do it over here too. Stupid thing is, the “karma” or whatever it’s called on Lemmy isn’t even displayed, so it doesn’t do shit anyway.

I probably should have been nicer and not done the LMGTFY

I mean, maybe? I think if all the downvoters understood that the content in question was right there in the article, they would have been on your side. Instead, they just pile on and call you a meanie. Meh.

Idk why you are getting downvoted, the speech is right in the article. People are lazy and expect shit to be handed to them even when the answer is one click away (the article).

Good. Now watch it and go apologize to https://lemmy.zip/u/NuXCOM_90Percent for being an asshat about it.

Right here

"There is a feature in the game that you obviously know what’s happening, the male Zoi and the female Zoi are together, likely in bed, with the intention of creating babies. How visually apparent is that? That’s where you have to go to your imagination.

“What you’re seeing is not what you’re seeing; you have to assume that’s what’s happening. Is that clear enough for everyone? It’s there. Sort of. Maybe not to the level that everyone would have been expecting.”

Clickbait headline is clickbait again. Thanks, Eurogamer.

Ah I thought I missed the news and Ubi purchased the rights or something. The point does still stand, yeah. Parent comment made the same point too

Ubi? I thought Dragon Age was EA

I’ve tried this on several maps like my old hometown or places in the world I’ve visited, and while it’s not super accurate, it’s super cool that it even works to begin with.

Definitely a great tool if you want to build some place from the real world and use it as the basis to expand on.

This. In other communities MSN in banned as a source because of this reason. They just scrape articles and surround it with ads.

On my W11 work machine I got dark mode, saving unsaved drafts and tabs

Ah yes, kernel-based anti-cheat and “proactive” voice chat moderation (spoiler alert: it’s still reactive)

Also the ability to pay $7.99 for “free” in-game money. The irony.

Doesn’t sound like a fun update to me.

Ah I forgot about Mario + Rabbids. I did buy that one, albeit second hand.

And I’ve heard good things about the Prince of Persia game before, but I refuse to give them any money. Mostly due to their business practices, sexual harassment suits and other misconduct.

There’s plenty of games to play and love, so I’m not missing much. Regardless, thanks for the recommendations, I know you’re doing it from a good place.

Man, screw this headline.

Literally in the news post on Steam, it says:

What About Assassin’s Creed III Remastered?

Achievements for Assassin’s Creed III Remastered are coming soon!

So while factually an accurate headline, it’s implying something else. More accurate would be 13 years on, Ubisoft adds Steam achievements to original Assassin’s Creed III, with achievements coming to AC III Remastered soon too.

Disclaimer: I hate Ubisoup games and I haven’t bought a single game since Far Cry 3

You can make an awesome game, if no streamer picks it up it will all be for nothing. Last year 18935 games released on Steam, that’s 52 games a day, being successful in that space isn’t just about making a quality product.

Yep. Best example I can think of is Among Us: 2018 release that got massively popular due to content creators during the covid-19 pandemic in 2020.

I do not blame developers for accepting funds to carry out their dreams instead of being thrown into the ocean of “let’s see if our years-long investment will pay itself back”. Epic grants guarantee that the game gets made.

If you want to play a game only on Steam, you’ll just have to wait. Can’t have it both ways.

I like this a lot. Using lemm.ee isn’t mandatory, as you can choose “pick another server” the moment you try to comment. For a moment I was wary that this would just send everyone to 1 instance.

Usually free games have twice the “sales” per review compared to paid games, so we’re looking at 80-90 * 51 = 4,080-4,590 “sales” provided all the reviews were legit. It’s not an exact science but a few thousand at least seems realistic.

I like this!

The userbase here is quite technical so there are many of you able to contribute.

As a project manager, I can help by ballooning the scope and setting the deadline to yesterday! Doing my part!

Good. It was a terrible port (I don’t think it’s earned being called a remaster) that sucked compared to the original from 22 years ago.

Sucks for those who paid for it though.

Good point. I don’t have all the answers to this predicament, but I think most of us agree that we need to improve on the onboarding experience.
