I’m gonna need to see how this tech works on Torgal and Rathalos and Alduin and other such creatures first. human faces and bodies, whatever, that’s been done to death!

Cool is subjective, though. I personally think it’s cool to offer options to change and reimagine art.
DLSS can’t imagine. It definitely can’t reimagine.
And I think it’s an affront to art in any case.

oof the dislike ratio on this video is brutal. 23k likes but 49k dislikes, at least according to PiePipe.
as it should be. DF has instantly lost all the credibility they worked so hard to earn for so many years.

Why is that a bad thing? I can understand if the ps5 version is held back by the limitations of the ps4, but I fundamentally don’t understand why anyone thinks any game being platform-exclusive is a good thing.
- Comment on Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now 3 weeks ago:
Hard disagree. The indie gamer era has never been better.
Hell, based on my hopeless addiction to Space Station 14, it’s also a great time to an open-source gamer.
- Comment on Did anyone really think the Final Fantasy 7 remake was better than the original PS1 version? 4 weeks ago:
I had the green-sided “Greatest Hits” version of FFVII that I bought from a kmart as a young teen. Game absolutely blew me away. Cosmo Canyon’s theme song was one of the first songs I ever learned to play on my first bass guitar. I immediately developed, and to this day actively maintain, a crush on Nanaki.
I borrowed the PC port from a friend for awhile sometime around 1998-1999 and enjoyed that as well, tho I don’t remember what was different about it to be honest
Remake on PS4 blew me away. I loved it. The redone intro still brings tears to my eyes. Rebirth on PC also really really impressed me. I have spent 160 hours playing it according to Steam. I WEPT when arriving at Cosmo Canyon and hearing the reimagined theme song. I went through the Nanaki date at least ten times now.
With all that said, it’s really hard to say if the original is “better” than the 2/3 of the remake I’ve played so far. The gameplay and presentation are so wildly different,. But I guess in nearly every way, yes. all I really miss is having nearly the whole world eventually accessible to me at once. Which the third installment might address.
Neither is perfect, for sure. Original has not aged well in so, so, so many ways. And the shit with the phantoms in the new games just instantly makes my eyes glaze over.
but all in all, short answer, gun to my head? Yes.

- Comment on 'Go Back and Play Morrowind and Tell Me That's the Game You Want to Play Again' — Former Bethesda Veteran Delivers His Verdict on Potential The Elder Scrolls Remasters - IGN 1 month ago:
Morrowind is undoubtedly better today than when it was released. The thousands and thousands of mods, thundreds of mod lists, dozens of tools, and hell even the complete, open source, crossplatform reimplementation of the core game engine and its crazy good multiplayer fork, all add up to today being an even better time to experience the game and the community!
I highly recommend picking up the base game and then playing it through OpenMW, with minimal mods the first playthrough (tho unofficual bugfix patch and the like are still probably a good idea)

This song (All Good Times, by MelonadeM) isn’t from a game, rather it’s one of the demo songs included with Furnace, a chiptune tracker. And it goes so fucking hard:

Even better with this statement
- Comment on High value 2 months ago:
Morrowind remains my favorite Elder Scrolls game. It’s a bit more hardcore RPG than Skyrim for sure, and that may turn some folks off. And it’s definitely an older game with most of the dialog written. But it is an EXCEPTIONAL game. The world is beautiful and varied and exploration still feels more rewarding than Oblivion or Skyrim, the amount of lore to explore is HUGE, the specificity when building and leveling your character out exactly how you want is expansive, and the game doesn’t hold your hand - you can kill people who are vital to the main story if you want to, it just lets you doom the world if you really want to.
Nowadays, I’d strongly recommend running it with the excellent OpenMW engine, it’s rock solid and performs better than the original game, hell there’s even a working multiplayer fork of it!

Yes, and I found it quite refreshing. It inspired me to get a straight razor, which was quite nice to use. Though keeping it adequately sharp was annoying enough that I switched to a double bladed safety razor, which is also quite nice to use.
