Mikufan,

And then i had that one guy that had a 100% hit chance all over the map even behind full cover…

I have no fucking idea what i did.

Mikufan,

So they cant because they lost the original code… Wouldn’t be the first time.

Like seriously, people want a remake so the game runs on modern systems, not because you need to change much story, graphics or gameplay. Maybe some quality of play changes and higher resolution support but thats not much work.

Mikufan,

Nintendo Wii and Wii U?

Mikufan,

They would at worst need to redo the code, the graphics and the text can be mostly reused without problem, the storyline wouldn’t change, the world building wouldn’t either. Putting the stuff into another code isn’t that hard for games like fallout 1 and 2 wich are more Text based.

A complete remake is absolutely unnecessary and nobody wants that. There is no reason to remake something that just needs some changes under the hood and maybe some upscaling for the textures.

Idk if this counts as remake or remaster, id argue its something in between.

Oh and its running on modern hardware, but not on modern Operating system, at least not without issues. The possibility of getting it to work on more modern OSs in the future is increasingly getting lower. Putting it into new code wouldn’t be much work but would help to preserve the game.

Mikufan,

The voice acting yes, but the dialog shouldn’t be changed.

Mikufan,

Who cares? Its a old game and it shouldn’t be changed. Shure its not good that it was like that back then, but changing it would be ignorant of the past.

Mikufan,

You need to make a fallout in Europe.

Mikufan,

Not necessarily, you’d just have to use different weapons, also… Fallout is a parallel universe why follow the laws of the real world? There is so much more potential in other regions of the world than there is new stuff they could add organically into fallout in USA.

I mean they wouldn’t even need to risk their fallout IP for it, just call it something else.

Mikufan,

Bro we are close to the 10 years mark…

Mikufan,

Hopefully

Mikufan,

Normally im biased against Microsoft, but bro they warned for at least 3 years about this and now people are mad… Thats just idiotic. And i absolutely understand Microsoft deleting the Old stuff as its probably a security risk. Migration Took 5 minutes when you didn’t have a MS account… 1 if you had. There is nothing to be mad about now.

Mikufan,

Bro its not bootlicking to say its a legitimate interest to delete stuff that could lead to lawsuits and is a security risk. Its also not bootlicking to say that they where warned repeatedly for at least 3 years now. You are just stupid.

Mikufan,

It is. A good database is waaay less expensive and not a security risk. Microsoft is a company operating in areas with privacy laws, a leak could cost millions of completely unnecessary compensation.

Mikufan,

Its illegal. Its absolutely illegal. Also the people most likely have a MS account and just don’t want to link it. And Microsoft cant make new accounts for them automatically.

Mikufan,

Could have just migrated like everyone else that isn’t an idiot.

Mikufan,

See

Mikufan,

Thats complete BS, they logged you out and send you the last and final warning.

Mikufan,

Bo this wouldn’t be but you got reminded to change to a MS account every login and now they finally killed the risky database.

As said, it would be illegal to intercept the inputs into the login fields and it would be an pretty unreasonable amount of work as the passwords are usually hashes when they leave the pc they come from.

Mikufan,

Why would they do this? They would give away free copies to possible scammers (if the email is lost) they told you for 3 years to connect ot to a ms account of your choice, if you didn’t thats on you. Also you got a cape for it.

(the “im owning minecraft longer than you live” cape to be specific)

Mikufan,

Isn’t save the children in criticism for very controversial business practices?

Mikufan,

deutschlandfunk.de/konzernspenden-an-ngos-die-wom…

Site is in German and i cant find a good English source, just use the Firefox translator.

Mikufan,

No. I can do a Excel, play Factorio and rimworld at the same time all while watching anime for entertainment.

And i don’t have to pay for online. And my pc isn’t locked behind some shitty schizo PSN account.

A 1-Minute Trailer At Summer Game Fest Costs $250K [Update] (kotaku.com)

Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest begins later this week and people around the world are excited to see all the trailers and teasers. And a new report, corroborated by Kotaku, reveals the high price it costs publishers and devs to show their games at the event....

Mikufan,

Gamescom will hopefully be better. 250k is pretty expensive.

Mikufan,

Blame the devs for not doing anything about the bots.

Mikufan,

Valve, the most important gaming company, commonly known for Steam, the most valuable and respected platform for gaming.

And they literally took down a fan project recently…

Mikufan,
Mikufan,

Yes it is so the outrage is very understandable. Especially because they basically have a infinite amount of money as a company.

Mikufan,

Sounds illegal and probably against the TOS of steam.

Mikufan,

Oh… My pc has a 10 year old GPU… Well time flies fast.

Mikufan,

And he is right.

Mikufan,

Most people won’t in the foreseeable future. LLMs are in a feedback loop and eat their own outputs, making them effectively worse at what they are doing over time. Also they are a gigantic risk factor.

Mikufan,

Firstly i highly doubt that, Secondly, ew. Also they are all toxic, they would ban their entire player base.

Mikufan,

You can just give em the credentials instead.

Mikufan,

Rip.

Mikufan,

Nah, you can already sell accounts and they do nothing, this is just the support saying that they cannot give your data to others, this is to please two kinds of people, the privacy guys and the people selling on steam. They however do not enforce. Also its questionable if this sentiment holds up in court, there have for example been cases in Germany where Facebook was forced to give access to the parents of a deceased, so questionable.

Mikufan,

The matter is the reasoning behind it. And as i said courts would have to decide.

And yes them not enforcing this basically means its just to appeal to the publishers, they probably couldn’t care less themselves.

Mikufan,

They could invest that money in making the platform itself less shit.

Mikufan,

Valve is the only company i trust to handle my games. Them being bought by Microsoft would ruin their entire business and would probably not happen because Cartel offices have to say something about that.

Mikufan,

Triple because valve has a reputation that isn’t shit and is literally running the biggest game market in the world.

Mikufan,

No Linux support.

Mikufan,

Yes but heroic has its own problems and is pretty chunky from time to time

Mikufan,

Yeah when something is available cheaper there shure but besides that i trust valve more and don’t buy from anywhere besides ich.io steam or gog, depending where its available/cheapest

Mikufan,

Valve is easily more valuable than any other gaming company just steam itself is. Also Gabe hates Microsoft, he wouldn’t sell for all the money in the world at gunpoint.

Mikufan,

You just broke the entire factory…

Mikufan,

Yeah its always something that seems insignificant but in the grand total fucks you royally. (that’s why i have a coal chest for emergencys)
