Because they wanted to work on Star Wars, but this was such a flop Disney pulled the deal

Agree! Without twitch and the lockdown the game would’ve quietly died

The Among Us devs didn’t rely on any virality for success, the game had been abandoned before it blew up

It’s unfortunately more widely used in the dev space too

Good description of the problems! I don’t play many big games nowadays but the tutorialization definitely feels heavy handed. I’m reminded of the newer Doom games that want to make sure players don’t get confused with pops for every single enemy. I think it’s a result of trying to scoop up a wider net of players to recoup those crazy dev costs.
Accessibility is a big win, replaying older games is sometimes very jank because of how games have evolved!

Elaborate! If you want to, that first Dying Light was a great game but I never played the sequels

Good news about Lairion: Larian announce plans to let folks ask anything about their generative AI use

Funnily enough, the Arc Raiders team “did it right” like this and still got shit. They paid artists and made special models to pre-generate some voice clips, none of it is used at runtime, and people were still upset.
The well is beyond poisoned at this point.

The lighting on hair is beautiful on ps5, I can see how it wouldn’t not scale if you don’t have the specs for it.
Your experience with the deck made me curious on the system… so I checked some of my CSGO skins and one that used to be $10 was selling for $145 on the marketplace. I sold it, and the next day Valve discontinued the lcd steam deck 😂 so rip that idea, the oled versions are too pricy for me

I’ll add to the other comment for anyone else that’s actually open to new things, because I traditionally don’t like turn based games:
The combat is excellent and the enemies are varied. Party members have fun synergies with both your team and the enemies, and the Pictos system adds a ton of flexibility for each character.
Plus there is a parrying mechanic that is challenging and rewarding!

There are some, none of them are very big. The bigggest I can think of is Darth Vader from Fortnite, and players immediately got it to swear and say slurs.

The fact that Silksong did that is insane to me, there was so much hype

Agreed, it’s still one of my favorite games this year. Any placeholder that isn’t an obvious placeholder has a chance to make it though

e33 is a fantastic game and is well worth your time
- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 loses a GOTY award over use of gen AI 3 weeks ago:
tldr: they said during the application process that no gen ai was used. Since they lied, the Indie Game Awards pulled their GOTY

The parry timing is hard for me too. Sometimes there are sound effects that indicate timing, turning the volume up sometimes helped me learn
But yeah the game is great, how does it play on deck? The game is incredible, you can get the album on bandcamp! It’s got 154 songs which is insane

Still Blue Prince! With my limited time found a few synergies and and stumbled into a few discoveries so far, but it’s still early.
And I got a notebook!
