I wonder how bugs are patched or any updates are made to the games. There is no source code either, right? Even if it produces full games, they seem to be worthless and a copy paste at best. Whatever happens in the future, there will always be classic programmers and designers with a vision and talent, who will create wonderful games. And that is even a good selling point.
Speedrunning a game is a challenge on itself, that is not part of the main game, like an achievement. Its to beat the game as fast as possible. There are different categories, in example abusing bugs is allowed or not or if the person has to 100% the game or just beat it as fast as possible. It’s an entire community and genre in itself to play all sorts of games like that, even massive role playing games!
I’m actually very interested into Deadlock. Got an invite when the game was new and it is what I imagined SMITE would be. The game has actual hero shooter elements and third person shooter like Marvel Rivals*, paired with the genre I am trying to get into. The reason why I do not play it is, because I don’t like playing Early Access games and wait for its official launch.
* Edit: (Overwatch is first person not third, but it doesn’t actually matter)
Mine actually too. lol. But it didn’t do it for me either, at least not in the long run.
I tried to get into MOBAs multiple times. Just reinstalled Dota 2 again (previously when I was still on Windows tried LoL). I don’t know what it is, but I just cant get into and play it. I like the idea of it though.
I regret not to have played these Elder Scrolls games when they were new. These are really special games. At the time, I wasn’t a fan of western RPGs and leaned heavily into JRPGs. But man, I regret it.
There is not really much incentive to buy a brand new Xbox console nowadays.
Would be cool if there was 3 different teams instead 2. That could work with that team size. Plus the map needs to be smaller from what I have seen and read (I didn’t play myself).
The core gameplay looks interesting, with the Apex Legends like controls (at least it looks like) and all the abilities. Generally the game looks a bit too much inspired by Apex (size of team mates and map size and the looting). I actually don’t mind if they have their own formula and brings something new or different to the table, which it seems to do.
Never buy on a promise what could be in future. But on the other hand, you will be able to play Fable on the console. It doesn’t get worse just because its not exclusive…
Yeah, that was surprising. Sounds like a joke, but it actually happened (on Amazon).
I am not talking about the IGN article, but about the link you gave me.
Just the first lines of the linked article says what I said, having a monopoly isn’t illegal on itself. Only abusing the dominance is.
Which paragraph or lines do you specifically speaking of? Its a long text, so quoting or pointing the part you refer to would be good.
That’s not the statement we are discussing as what he said.
We could wake up one morning and find out there’s a $10 monthly fee to access Steam’s “services” including every game you ever purchased.
When did this ever happen on any game console, or service ever? Isn’t this some kind of “fear mongering”? Also wouldn’t this be illegal? Because we purchased the game and Valve would effectively take all access away for all games. I don’t think your argument what could happen is warranted.
Having a “Monopoly” that occurred naturally isn’t illegal. Misusing the position and eliminating any competition is illegal. Besides that, the monopoly situation is open and there is competition. They just suck. Imagine filing Nintendo a lawsuit for having a monopoly in handheld consoles…
Does anyone know if it is working on Linux (or Steam Deck)?
Just checked it, didn’t play since Sep, 2024… I will install it this weekend and check out what game mode that may be.
Fun fact: Game requires 33.33 GB space… Half-Life 3 confirmed?
It’s essentially a MOBA with first person hero shooter elements. The MOBA part didn’t speak to me, but I really really want to like this game.
Looks just like Horizon 5. :D But in Japan setting off course, which is very interesting to me. Its one of the few Microsoft IPs that do well in recent history.
I also have probably emulators for approx. 90 consoles / systems and have full set of games for most… Even if no game is produced anymore, we can buy current gen PC and console games, including Switch and Steam. In addition to emulation of older systems. And then there is the modding scene… with never ending content for out beloved games, even remasters from fans.
If the gaming industry goes wild, then I have no fear of missing out. And there are enough games (even to buy) that will serve me for the rest of my life.
