Callie, to gaming in Phil Spencer: "getting [acquiring] Nintendo would be a career moment for me"; Nintendo's future "exists off of their own hardware"
@Callie@pawb.social avatar

Nintendo is successful because of their games, not because their hardware is the best

I agree, their first party games are usually extremely polished and accessible for everyone in the family. their concepts overall for consoles are typically really good though. just about every console since the Wii (except WiiU) has felt great to use, even if they all have some kind of gimmick. But I think the gimmicks help in their favor, it makes them stand out from PS and Xbox

As much as I like Microsoft, I don’t want them to touch Nintendo. I have no faith that they would continue doing what Nintendo does well.

EXTREMELY EARLY ACT 1 SPOILER

spoilerit’s when the ship crashes and you find the dying mind flayer in the wreckage. he will attempt to control your parasite and make you give yourself unto him and if you fail the checks to stop it, he’ll eat your brain and if you don’t have any other party members then it’ll game over

If you’re counting the one with astarion that I’m thinking of, then I think the one at the very beginning after truly starting act 1 with the mind flayer could count

I gave it a try a few weeks ago and it just felt really floaty, like there was no weight to the drifting or steering

Ik you edited your comment but I also really want a steam controller 2 The first controller is great although running into modern problems like micro usb being trash and rechargeable AA batteries get stuck in the battery compartment. But a new controller with dual thumb sticks would be fantastic! Even if it would make the controller a slight bit more bulky

Callie, to gaming in Not counting games that were unfun because of bugs, what’s the most unfun video game that you’ve played and what made it unfun?
@Callie@pawb.social avatar

most multiplayer shooters to me, they’re typically filled with the most vile shit you’ll ever hear coming from an 8 year old, and the adults are just as bad and should know better.

competitive shooters like Rainbow Six Siege or Counter Strike are also really bad in casual modes, especially if you’re a new or lackluster player. You’ll be flamed, team killed, and your teammates will try their absolute best to ruin your entire day over a hobby

I’ve heard really good things about the remake of 12, basically improved on everything wrong with the original game

Callie, to gaming in Why did Baldur's Gate 3 blow up? Larian lead writer says it's thanks to "a big gamble" with CRPG standards
@Callie@pawb.social avatar

same here. I typically buy games on super deep sales a few years after the games comes out just so I don’t end up disappointed by the product, but this game feels properly polished. a few bugs here and there but none so far that I’ve encountered that are game-breaking

As someone who has barely put any amount of time into BG1 and only played Larian’s previous title, Divinity Original Sin 2, if you are okay playing turn based RPG, it’s absolutely worth the money IMO. The interactions and way you can traverse through the world is pretty amazing. Almost every encounter or area has a large amount of opportunities on how you can approach or avoid

It’s be so great if they all formed a new studio and just started a new franchise as the spiritual successor. After the disaster of Andromeda and the middle of the road game that inquisition was compared to its predecessors, I don’t have much hope about the fantastic writing of previous games coming back.

Callie, to gaming in Baldur's Gate 3 will be released on Xbox this year, with split-screen features removed for Series S
@Callie@pawb.social avatar

That really seems like an ai article.

“ Larian had difficulties becoming a split-screen co-op to function…”

“… Microsoft’s apparent belief that full feature parity between Xbox Series X and Series X versions was required.”

It could just be slip ups, but given the rise of ai written articles, I’m not so sure

I’ve been playing Divinity Original Sin 2 with my partner, we both never really got that far into it in the years we both owned it, so we’re trying to get more into it in anticipation of playing Baldurs Gate 3
