Crazy stuff… Ads everywhere. Makes my choice to not buy any console this generation seem a lot better. It saved me money and I don’t get ads forced on me. I call that a win win.

While I have not played overwatch myself, I have heard about a few things with it. From my point of view overwatch had it’s own problems including characters that did only one thing but that one thing really, really well. Which is frustrating. It also didn’t help that they tried to force things instead of actually working with what they had. IMHO it’s a master class of what not to do with a game unless you want to to fail.
You have to balance that. A pure healer would need to be so strong that it would become the primary target at all times. Which would be frustrating for both sides. For players playing against it because they can’t really play the game anymore. For the pure healers because they would be under tons of pressure.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) we (should) design games around a core audience. Chances are that if your ( r my) hypothetical friend isn’t enjoying the competitive part of the game at all, that she (or he) is going to get frustrated at that game at some point anyways. And there are probably games that suit both your needs better to start with. Competitive games may just not be the right choice. Don’t ruin the game feel of those games for those that enjoy them for the sake of non competitive players because that will just create a game that no one actually wants to play.
I enjoy playing support classes, you want me to stop Playing support classes? Make it so that they are utterly defenseless and rely solely on others to stay alive.
Ultimately, it will play absolutely terribly if all you can do is run away unless you are playing with a well organized team. And then you may find that all your team mates get to have all the fun in the game while you get stuck with only the boring stuff.
No thank you.
A game I only bought because someone else wanted to play that together on a private LAN party. That person then announced that they couldn’t show up. And since I was terribly uninterested in playing that game on my own and only bought it for just that occasion, I refunded it after that news.
For real. Hacknet uses commands that work like that in the usual Linux terminals. Including the auto complete feature. At the very least you will learn the basics from that game. As for if you should start to play it. Well the question is if you enjoy a puzzle game with a story that is hacking themed using actual terminal commands to do stuff. If that sounds like fun the go for it.
Ah hacknet. Teaching people Linux terminal in a fun way without them even noticing.
In my personal experience, ignoring them really doesn’t help anyone but them. They will find a way to spin that into their favour.
And to perhaps go on a short tangent : one of the best ways to get rid of an infection is to kill it. Even our body’s immune system knows about that and is usually doing just that. To the point where it just orders sick body cells to die.
In other words. Not helping them by not giving them any more free real estate is not enough, you need to make their lives actively miserable.
Or yet again in other words, not paying them any more money is not good enough to stop otban or Hungary, you actually need to make it hurt for them if they keep doing what they want. Give their actions actual consequences.
As it stands right now Hungary is best either out of the EU or at least has ALL their rights taken away from them while it stays how it is. Including all the EU funds and then some.
They play hardball? You need to play hardball better than them. Simple as that.
I expect nothing and I know that they will still dissapoont me. Marketing isn’t weeping because they don’t know how to sell the expectation, they weep because they don’t know how they can convince anyone to even look at that game.
Gotta fine them more than that. Lots more,it has to be painful for them at this point. As it is right now we REALLY don’t need them in the EU like that.
It’s hard to say for the village I live in. There really are not many officials records but apparently one of the roof tiles had 16xx marked on it. Which makes this totally unassuming house somewhere around 400 years old.
Right… Splitgate and splitgate 2 are lies. What you experienced are probably mostly if not all bit matches instead of playing with and against other players. But that is besides the question.
Realistically there have been no actual good games in that niche in recent years (less than 10 years old) and the old ones are either dead unless you like botmatches or have a tiny community that is really REALLY good and will wipe the floor with you.
Anyhow Quake 3 (good luck) Tribes 2 (good luck) Unreal tournament 2004 (good luck obtaining legally, also good luck) Halo (LoL last decent one was reach on 360) There’s more but those are even more niche than the big ones already listed.
Almost like shitty and unsustainable business practices have consequences and those are starting to show now. Who would have thought…
Unfortunately the reality often is that it’s cheaper to buy more land and demolish buildings that get in the way than it is to build tall to solve for that. And that prestige project has to be cheap so that it can get out the door in this local politicians election cycle. Now if people could be held accountable for really bad choices they made a long time ago…
Man I remember that time… Mainly because it suddenly got real hard or expensive to get your hands on horse dewormer. I should add that I used that to ensure that my horse had no worms at the time. That kind of dumb actually had impact even outside the US and just goes to show just how much damage that dumb fuck actually caused.
I have some thoughts on that despite the fact that I don’t even watch the show.
For the first point: Load distribution to ensure that the system wears down more evenly is a thing that can be done. Yeah you may be able to automate it but there can be reasons why you may not want to do that, like added complexity that makes the system even more failure prone For the second point: It’s still a lot easier to maintain something than it is to fix it when it’s broken. Having eyes there to do that may just be a way to get someone to check for potential failure points before they become a problem. Even if they may be in other systems nearby that are unrelated. Having someone check those systems by hand also has a security aspect to it because it makes it less likely that someone can just tamper with that system. Yes you have dedicated security personnel but security is still everyone’s responsibility.
Also. Plot points and all that stuff that makes it fun to watch.
I can only speak for Deus ex: mankind divided since I have played that myself.
It is technically a sequel in the sense that there are other Deus ex games that came before it with the original Deus ex, invisible war and human revolution. That said every single one of those games has it’s own self contained story with only some overlap between them. Mankind divided features the same main character to play from the previous game but everything else is different. From the location to the characters barring one which isn’t an issue for reasons… And is also otherwise completely isolated from the first two games maybe with one Hommage that you might miss If you don’t know the first game but then it’s just a great character instead of the thing it’s supposed to be.
Long story short, IMHO you can just pick that one up and play it without worrying about missing a ton.
One of the better indie RPGs that got released in recent years. Featuring an “online” (CrossCode is Singleplayer) world with a story and other charactersto interact with (all of which with different personalities and even writing styles to not just make the world feel alive but also the other “players”. Platforming, some puzzles, nice and fun combat, RPG elements and some surprisingly novel ideas.
It really is worth the asking price.
What a calamity. Which is ironically how the capsule that is stuck got named. The jokes just write themselves.
I would argue that it’s a handheld PC since it’s not locked down to heck and back. It would also be the one thing I would buy but I have no use case for it so I don’t.
