ghostz was throwing a party that 1 person left sony santa monica and made up that they couldnt stand what they were making

less than 24 hours later, news comes out that 70% of staff left a xbox studio because they actually couldnt stand what they were making

supporting xbox, in a nutshell  

So far, nothing has convinced me the endgame is so brilliant that it's worth stripping everything out of the initial leveling process. The thin storytelling doesn't help either—thankfully you can skip it on subsequent characters. Diablo 4 is a live service game that puts an insulting amount of effort into trying to convince you it's not. It's backwards; trying to build up to the most robust part of itself instead of starting with it. The moment entering a fresh dungeon feels more like a chore than a ride is the moment Diablo loses me, and I've been worryingly close to that feeling in my time with it so far.

since its basically an mmo now, no. diablo is dead

the live service games are to fund the single player games, dumbo

PC gamers are getting really, really fed up with one sh*tty port after another

• Steam reviewers lambasted Forspoken for looking worse than its trailers—and worse than contemporary open world games—while being basically as demanding as Cyberpunk 2077
• Sony's first big PC port, Horizon Zero Dawn, launched with substantial issues, including broken anisotropic filtering and poor borderless windowed performance, though it was much improved through patches
• HD remasters of classic games inevitably seem flawed in some way that modders have to fix: Ninja Gaiden Collection and Chrono Cross are offenders from the last two years
• The Callisto Protocol had a severe stuttering issue at launch due to a file mix-up, which was, at least, quickly patched
• Gotham Knights pushed high-end hardware despite having a more barren, less attractive open world than 7-year-old Arkham Knight
• Hogwarts Legacy, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Stray, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, and Evil West are all Unreal Engine 4 games that have launched with stuttering issues
• Elden Ring, a year after launch, still exhibits similar stuttering problems—particularly disappointing in a game hard locked to 60 fps
• Midnight Suns saw a framerate boost from disabling 2K's annoying launcher
• Dead Space launched with fuzzy textures thanks to variable rate shading, as well as stuttering, though a patch quickly fixed the first issue 

this was announced like 5 years ago

Way to kill my interest. Lmao, wow.  Thanks though, the games aren't cheap and you saved me money/disappointment.  I can get Warioware or Mario Odyssey for the same price. Gonna go for Odyssey then. 

 

Have you played anything on Switch that is 'b-rate' but actually pretty decent? 

kirby forgotten land and pikmin 3 seemed pretty decent if you’re into those series. i got my fill from the demos though lol

The Last Game of Benedict Fox  

the warioware gba games are in my top 5 favorite handheld games of all time. warioware switch sucks. in the classic games, you would control a random object/person in each mini-game. each one was simple, easy, and fun. in the switch game, theres a roster of playable characters you play as in the mini-games. each character has a different gimmick - one flies, one bounces around, etc and most of them are annoying to control. it also makes each mini-game play more like a traditional game because youre just guiding a player character around a screen instead of doing something random like guiding a hand to pick a nose. and when it starts throwing different characters one mini-game after the other, it takes a second longer to process what character youre controlling, on top of what the object of the mini-game is, which just defeats the purpose of fast, easy to process mini-games. its just all trash.

never played the warriors games, but heard the framerates are legendarily bad. literally drops into like the teens.

super mario party is waggle only, mario party superstars uses buttons only. both pretty barebones content wise. same with the mario sports games. thats the main reason they get mostly 7's. never played paper mario origami king because i was put off by the battle system. look up the trailer if youre curious. one of the worst battle systems in an rpg ive ever seen. none of the mario spin-offs are worth a damn except for maybe mario kart and mario party superstars, but even those have all the usual drawbacks those series are known for.
