I wonder if these will also be affected my the sales as well. Might be worth holding out until the next big steam sale to see.

Lol that’s what I get for just reading the headline

Noclip did a doc about it recently (https://youtu.be/GtNvEna6bxc). I remember seeing it for the first time at a buddies place growing up, but I didn’t have a strong enough computer to run it. I did though when black and white 2 came out and it was awesome! I feel the only thing comparable to it currently is the Anno series, no spells or anything but just city management and stuff.

I feel that when it first came out all my podcasts that I was listening to at the time were talking about it for at least 6 months. It really got its hooks into me and I also come back to it occasionally as well.

I found that I really had to put all other games aside and focus on it.

I actually started by playing the first two games before starting 3 and that really helped me focus on just playing 3 because at that point I was super invested. 1 and 2 are both pretty short games (compared to 3) but super different from each other so if you want to give that a try it might be worth it.

I got like 40 hours into MGSV and I just got burnt out on it. I feel that going back I would probably have a better time but the first time I was obsessively doing the side missions and it just killed it for me.

Yeah, the same thing happened to me. I was taking my pace but it took me so long to get anything done that eventually it just fizzled out for me. I don’t think I made it half way through the story and at this point I don’t think I can go back and play it because it seems like such a chore.

I really enjoyed Shadow Gambit’s integration of save scumming into the gameplay loop. Took me a minute to realise that the bell ringing wasn’t auto saving but letting you know you could make another save but after that I really enjoyed it. Super curious to see how the different characters interact with eachother!

The more I hear about this the more I’m shocked that this death trap was allowed to operate at all! It seems on the level of that bear suit guy, super dyi energy but with no real use case.

I doubt he would listen to anyone, and it seems like there was no plan at all to conceal the fact that they just wanted to kill all the apps and push users to the official one.

This whole lie about ‘we only want to make money on people using our data for AI’ is bullshit and they know it, they could have easily locked down the API and then charged different rates for different companies depending on their intended use. But lumping it all in the same cost structure let’s them get away with killing apps entirely.

From what I remember it that is true, he let another developer give it a shot since he had no interest/experience in IOS development. Maybe he’ll do it again and a more dedicated developer will be able to complete the port this time.

Hopefully, even though it’s smaller, it feels more connected. I think that’s what I was missing from the outer worlds, it just felt so did jointed. I should Go back and give it another go though.

Yeah that’s the only thing on the list that I could see a possible improvement in performance in. I’m waiting on a good price for an x3d and I’m coming from an 5600x. Outside of that there won’t be much of an improvement anywhere.

lol I’ll wait and see, but ‘fewest bugs’ in a Bethesda game isn’t exactly inspiring confidence the way they probably assumed it would.

Very curious if this is enough of an engine overhaul to make it a little bit more stable in general.

Suuuper curious to see how this turns out. I didn’t get through The Outer Worlds, something about it lacked the draw of exploration for me and it felt like a smaller more linear game. Hopefully this will be more like Oblivion/Skyrim with the world being more connected.

The characters seem to still being doing that Bethesda thing where they just stand in attention at you and stare you down lol.

Really curious to see how the combat actually feels and if there will be a V.A.T.S. like system, I know that’s something that a lot of people like and the combat is this game looks a lot faster than any combat in a Bethesda game before. So it could turn some people off who aren’t a big fan of fast paced combat but really enjoy Bethesda stories and worlds.

I still haven’t played through it yet, got it on steam sale, but with this announcement I’ll probably hold off until this update is released.
