I’m hoping this lights a fire under devs’ asses and reminds them that the platformer genre exists. I’ve played a few recent indie platformers that were decent but I’d love to see the genre get some love from bigger studios (other than Nintendo).
The only recent one I can think of that fits that bill is Yooka Laylee and that game was doodoo.

Bugfixes are a “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” thing with remasters. Purists and speedrunners often prefer bugs remain unfixed, others don’t
But I definitely see what you mean with the overly busy designs and inaccurate models. I actually died once to my own rocket launcher because I thought I was shooting through a gap between a cliffside and a tree but the gap acted like an invisible wall

I’m curious what you think they messed up with CE anniversary? I just recently played through it and can’t remember any changes besides the graphics, which can be switched back to normal by simply pressing the Tab key

that game will live on forever
And Melee fans will still refuse to play it for whatever reason

- Comment on Are there Cozy shooter games? 2 months ago:
I’ve been enjoying the flow state I get into while playing Space Marine II. It is a mix of melee and shooting, but the melee aspect is very simple - no memorizing combos and the timing of parries is fairly forgiving. It’s all very satisfying once you get the feel for it. Cinematics are skippable, the can change the difficulty level to your liking, and you can set your lobbies to private if you don’t wanna play with others

“Live service” is a genre. Clearly, it’s not your genre. So play other genres.

Lego 2k Drive is a great one. Micro transactions are sadly pushed pretty hard, but I just played with my Switch in airplane mode and that made it pretty easy to ignore them

You call them scammers, then say their right to scam should be protected by licenses? I say we scam the scammers by forking it and doing whatever the fuck we want with it 🙂

The author’s points are:
- Ew crypto, amirightguise?
- They missed a single letter in a single word on a page that wasn’t meant to be public-facing, what a bunch of losers
It’s pretty easy to tell that this guy spends at least half of his waking hours on reddit. He also completely glossed over the fact that it’ll be open source, so we can just fork it and cut out the icky parts
- Comment on Worst examples of Treknobabble 3 months ago:
I mean, as an engineer, I can tell you that sort of group solving DOES happen in meetings sometimes, but it’s the speed they do it at in the show that’s unrealistic. At the same time, slowing it down would make for bad television so idk
- Comment on How did Call of Duty get to this point? 3 months ago:
The current COD (MW3/Warzone) is my guilty pleasure. It crashes during 50% of my play sessions, the player/weapon skins are cringe, the battle pass is pushed pretty hard, but somehow I’m able to ignore all of that and have a lot of fun with it. Warzone is my personal favorite battle royale implementation and MW3 is a nostalgia trip with all the remade maps from past games.
Admittedly, half of my enjoyment comes from playing with my clan from the Xbox 360 days and feeling like we’re in high school again, so playing alone might not be so fun

Yeah, editing the session bus settings of the Firefox flatpak just so my laptop’s screen doesn’t go to sleep while watching YouTube is disappointing. Not difficult, but still disappointing.
Ever since I started daily driving Linux, I constantly face problems that make me wonder if the developers of open source software even use their own applications

Today in European news:
A BRAWL broke out between Turkey and Georgia fans. They FIERCELY shouted at each other through some railings while throwing plastic beverage cups at each other.
Then, during the game, a player was GRAVELY injured when a defender tackled him directly in the shin guard. He rolled around on the ground for 5 minutes before medics saved his life with the magic spray.
Yall are cute :)
- Comment on Yooka-Replaylee! | Reveal Trailer 6 months ago:
Sadly, I don’t think ray tracing is going to fix how boring this game is. I also backed the kickstarter because I’m a huge Banjo Kazooie fan. I started this game 3 separate times and could never will myself to get more than halfway. Not only is the gameplay uninteresting, the writing just doesn’t have the same charm as the BK games

Warzone, COD’s battle royale mode, is free to play and seems to have surpassed normal COD multiplayer in popularity. Talking to randos while playing normal COD multiplayer, a lot of people say they’re just playing it because it’s a quick way to level up their guns for use in Warzone
