It’s not really a feature, but downloading the “PSO2” side of the game is now optional if you play the Steam version. It chops 58GB off the total install size if you don’t download it.

That’s enough to get me to re-download tbh

i want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and i’m not kidding

"Dogs really are man’s best friend, they know their place, and perform useful functions like biting burglars and chasing balls that you throw for them,” Ryan wrote, according to Bloomberg

CEOs are not human

What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

3D Platformers. We get maybe one or two every few years, and most of them are usually pretty short. last big one was probably A Hat in Time. if y’all know more beyond that let me know. just grabbed Koa and the 5 Pirates of Mara.

so desperate for one i’m considering learning how to make 3D games so i can make my own lol

I’m sad he’s in the hard category. I love his design and play style but I’m already really bad at SF lol.

Microsoft wins FTC fight to buy Activision Blizzard

https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/11/23779039/microsoft-activision-blizzard-ftc-trial-win

From the article, quoting Judge Corley:

... the Court finds the FTC has not shown a likelihood it will prevail on its claim this particular vertical merger in this specific industry may substantially lessen competition. To the contrary, the record evidence points to more consumer access to Call of Duty and other Activision content. The motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DENIED.

more than possibly any other industry, gaming companies don’t really see their video games as “art.”

nintendo doesn’t want you to buy their old games because they want you to buy their new ones. that’s all they give a shit about.

this has been my longest-lasting phone game by a significant margin. I love that it’s portrait mode so I can play a game while holding a phone the way God intended

the complete edition of Nioh 2 is $30. $30 for like 4000 hours of content depending on how deep you get into it. one of my top 25 games of all time.

FAQ:

  • I hate soulslikes that aren't dark souls

don't worry, because nioh 2 isn't a soulslike after the first playthrough! once the credits roll, it becomes ninja gaiden crossed with diablo. also, the first playthrough is the tutorial lmao

  • do i have to care about the loot?

not on the first playthrough, but like i said, it's diablo. you'll be chasing gear and making builds that melt bosses. if that doesn't sound fun, pass on it.

  • do i have to play as William?

no! nioh 2 has a character creator. an extremely good one, because if Koei Tecmo is good at one thing, it's making pretty characters

  • is there an izuna drop?

you bet your sweet fuckin ass there's an izuna drop

thought of another: Eastward.

this is a flawed game, make no mistake. the pacing is, at times, abysmal. but man if it didn't punch me in the gut by the end of it.

also I dunno if everhood is on sale but that game is also strange and fun but flawed. perfect games to get on sale imo

I haven't finished it yet but i absolutely love Harvestella. It's barely a farming sim, more like a Final Fantasy game with farming elements inside it, but I really really enjoyed it.

My favorite of all time is Rune Factory 4. God the amount of time I spent on that game is obscene lmao. I dunno what really makes it unique that I love it so much, maybe the bigger focus on dungeon crawling to go with the farming, but yeah, huge huge fan. Also Forte was so cute.

I didn't like RF5 nearly as much, but I bought it twice (Switch and PC) because it's a miracle it even came out and I wanted to support that. For those who don't know, Neverland Co., the company that developed Rune Factory (and Lufia!) went bankrupt after Rune Factory 4. But then Marvelous hired most of the people on that team, which led to Rune Factory 4 Special, then Rune Factory 5, and now Rune Factory 6 and a spin-off that just got announced! Those sorts of comeback stories make me very happy. I'm really hoping these next two games allow them to refine their 3D engine.

EVER OASIS YEAAAAA!!!

honestly it's a very forgiving game so you can just go at your own pace with RF4! i was a teen when I played it and didn't really struggle from what I remember haha

you say that, but it's nintendo, so...

the fact that you sound incredibly angry about a post I put down a month ago and then put “outrage journalism” in quotes is hilariously ironic, but not in a way I think would lead to any sort of interesting conversation so I won’t get into it with you beyond that
