Yeah I feel like it’s similar to movies in a way. You can only push so much money and development into something before you start seeing diminishing returns.

Perfect Dark Reboot Is Allegedly In Bad Shape (www.gamespot.com)

I don’t think big companies know how to make a good FPS campaign anymore, let alone hone in on classic deathmatch multiplayer. The last FPS I bought was Half-Life: Alyx four years ago, and the first one to come along and interest me since then was Phantom Fury, but I’m letting that one iron out bugs for a few weeks before I...

It’s like nostalgia blinders.

An example a lot of people here can relate to is thinking about game consoles and handhelds they played growing up like the GBA.

There were likely some great games produced for it but there was also a lot of shovelware movie tie-ins and horrendous ports that were misrepresented in advertisements.

I really hope Valve doesn’t start making small incremental changes to the Steam Deck like devices in the emulation handheld scene (Powkiddy, Anbernic, etc.) do.

I’d feel a lot less incentivised to buy one if I felt like my device was going to immediately age out. I imagine less developers would make system settings specifically for the Steam Deck like Cyberpunk 2077 did or design third party peripherals.

Any reason they are releasing it now instead of when the game or the show released?

When I was in high school we didn’t know how to mix drinks so we did it half and half. I can only imagine if this contained the same ratio

Fantastic movie. I think I first saw it recommended in a list of must watch grindhouse films

Do you have any other grindhouse movies you really like?

Are you telling me all the podcasters I listen to didn’t naturally have the same experience with HelloFresh?

I’d say most people who regularly vape probably do. A significant amount of them also vape indoors.

I used to and the smell didn’t really cling to things and it didn’t yellow the walls. I did notice little specs in an almost sneeze like pattern though.

Another I haven’t actually read this comment but this post reminded me of The Turner Diaries and Thought Slime’s video about it.

For those that want some videos about MiniDics:

  • Here is a This Does Not Compute video about MiniDiscs.
  • Tech Moan has several videos covering all aspects of MiniDiscs. One can be found here.
  • Here is an LGR video about a MiniDisc PC

It seems silly to me.

It’s essentially rehashing the debate of people being more comfortable with violence than sexual content. A game can have someone getting vivisected with a shotgun and no one really cares but having full frontal nudity will end up with a game that has articles written about it.

From what I’ve heard Stellar Blade didn’t have full frontal nudity or anything remotely close to that level but the outfits were toned down. I don’t think it’s really necessary especially when you can choose which outfit the protagonists wears.

I feel like this has been the norm for a while though with games getting released here in the west with women being less sexualized. I’m kind out of the loop about Stellar Blade so I’m not sure if it was censored globally.

I think it depends on the developer. They might lump it in with other realism things like hair physics.

I think what OP is talking about is things being removed. It doesn’t have much to do with optimising the game.

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

I get that. I’m saying showing less thigh doesn’t make the game run faster and developers might not view something like that as a waste.

… apparently boobs now.

I feel like jiggle physics has been around for just as long

I am curious how this is going to effect the number of active players. I know a lot of people who were trying to get me to play this saying it was here to stay and not a trend like a Lethal Company but I feel like this hurdle might be enough to get them to give up.

I definitely have a low level of tolerance for Russian nesting dolls of accounts and launchers.

This is on PC and unlike some other ported PS games I don’t think there is an option to play offline I imagine a lot of people are going to be creating PSN accounts I’d say that’s a hurdle for some people.

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

As I said in another comment I think it’s more about people having to create another account.

I also don’t know how or if PSN integration is going to impact matchmaking.

Does Fallout need two timelines?

An OG timeline (FO1, FO2, Tactics, and FNV) and a Bethesda timeline (all the games/shows they made). I don’t know why Bethesda didn’t do this when they got the rights. It would make things easier for them. Due not having fans talk about how Bethesda broke the lore. Will, if they don’t broke their lore. But you got my...

I don’t think so.

An OG timeline (FO1, FO2, Tactics, and FNV) and a Bethesda timeline (all the games/shows they made). I don’t know why Bethesda didn’t do this when they got the rights. It would make things easier for them. Due not having fans talk about how Bethesda broke the lore. Will, if they don’t broke their lore. But you got my point.

It sounds like you are talking about rebooting the franchise not splitting the timelines. That would get rid of a lot of the world lore the series has built up and get real confusing.

I don’t think Bethesda has done too many outlandish retcons. A lot of it seems to match up with the game engines advancing like in the case of vehicles and new power armor mechanics.

EDIT About New Vegas. Bethesda didn’t make it, but they did published it. So what timeline it belongs in? The reason I put it in the OG timeline. Because it being more similar with the OG games then Bethesda ones. But the show throws an monkey wrench into things. I guess New Vegas can be in both timelines.

Bethesda didn’t make it but they did provide a guiding hand in the direction the game would take. Obsidian for example wanted to have San Fransisco destroyed for Fallout NV and Bethesda prevented that.

I don’t think it matters. It was a team effort.

The show is canon now but I wonder if there is a chance they would ever treat it like Fallout Tactics or the Fallout Bible where it is non-canon but they borrow elements for games later on and those specific parts become canon.
