MY BOY’S BACK WITH A NEW ASHLEY LETS GOOOOOO

Honestly, I’m really happy when I see a different artstyle from the “UE5 3rd person view and everyone’s covered in vaseline” 90% of games now have. I will be checking this out.

I’m so hype for this! Returnal was one of my favourite pandemic era games I played, and really helped me get back into gaming as a hobby. Very excited to see what Housemarque have cooked up.

Casey Hudson was the original project lead of Kotor 1 and the entire first Mass Effect trilogy. I think that’s why a lot of people are hopeful about the direction of this new game.

I’m curious too. Original Sin/OS2 are really tight turn based strategy games (with D:OS2 being the best game Larian has ever made IMO (sorry BG3 fans)), but Divinity II was an ARPG, and I would not mind seeing a Larian with actual resources trying their hand at it again.

I know Lara has never been flat. But I honestly wouldn’t put it past the “Feminine characters are sexist and wrong” modern gaming land scape to fuck that up

This has not been a trend in gaming for years, if ever. This was just Twitter outrage you fell for. Stellar Blade was literally topping the Steam charts a few months ago.

Thank you Remedy for not Epic-jailing this like with Alan Wake 2! That game is such a masterpiece that more people need to play 😭

I think Legacy of Atlantis is actually a remake of the first Tomb Raider, so I think Crystal Dynamics wanted to be like “Don’t worry guys, you’re also getting a new one” at the same time.

Yeah, this I believe. I saw the news that they sold one of their studios back to the original owners while still publishing the game they were developing. I must have missed the news about them downsizing their in-house stuff.

I looked up what studios they would be acquiring under the WB merger and uh…outside of the new Mortal Kombat, Hogwarts Legacy, and the DC games…I don’t really know if they’re going to make a big dent in the gaming sphere immediately. A lot of these already look pretty mismanaged, maybe it could get worse, but it could also get better.

But if we’re worried about moving towards even more subscription-based cloud gaming…yeah…looking at the state of gaming and hardware right now, I can’t argue with you there.

Hasn’t Netflix been “in gaming” a while? You can access a lot of games on mobile from them. I opened my Netflix Android app and just from the suggested I can play Red Dead Redemption, Story Teller, Dead Cells, Spirit Fairer, Shredder’s Revenge, Street Fighter, and bunch of Choose your own Adventure type stuff from their own IPs. They’ve been angling in to game publishing for a while.

Yeah, sometimes the pedants of Lemmy get a bit grating (I’m guilty of it myself). Most people were able to understand that OP was asking whether smaller or larger internet service providers are easier to use for piracy without detection. Most who didn’t get that context scrolled past.

That being said… OP’s replies are hilarious LMFAO wtf is that shit

What happened with Firefox?

I think OP meant use Safari with the Apple’s Privacy Relay thing that hides your IP and generalizes location data into a larger area, not just regular “private mode” that Safari has. Too bad it’s subscription only on iCloud+, and who knows if it actually works as well as Apple claims it does.

Bro, what the fuck are you even saying anymore.

The ketamine has fried these guys brains beyond belief.

“iPhone” gets more clicks than “Pixel phone” I guess.

Literally all phones right now are fugly monochromatic bricks. Even the foldables, they’re just thicker bricks.

edit: The Nothing Phone looks kinda cool though last time I checked

This is for newgen gamers though, isn’t it? Konami is probably banking on them seeing this as a “new game” because it’s novel for them, and paying the “new game” price.

Unless the oldheads really want to see Ocelot meow in HD…

I do NOT want to see Brian from Sales in an onlyfans context…

Ewww people actually use Threads? Last time I saw it, it was like LinkedIn 2.0 filled with sigma grindset “chase that bag” crap.

This is so weird, because they had already restored/updated it for HD when it was on HBO Max, and it was fine. No AI gibberish in the backgrounds. Did Netflix not have the rights to that version or something?

Thank you, I was so confused as to what the other comments were talking about. I have js turned off by default.

instance that openly threatens to kill you

Wtf kind of fedilore did I miss 😀
