The downside of opencritic is that the barrier to entry is so low you eventually get stupid quotes like that.

Hilarious that this comment is so far down, Lemmy can be such a circlejerk.

Sony and Xbox absolutely reserve the right to brick your console. IIRC Sony bricks stolen Playstation consoles if they ever connect to the internet. This is nothing new.

Most of those are old reviews, the final patch which includes major reworks came out a few days ago. It’s in a good state now and worth getting.

Very excited for this. I played Binding of Isaac for hundreds of hours, I hope that game recaptures that addiction.

Yeah, it’s a prequel to the last two games.

Fe. It’s a small game by a small studio but was published by EA of all people.

Also, Child of Light by Ubisoft.

You can buy repair hammers from the blacksmith to repair equipment on the go. It’s cheaper to buy repair hammers and fix them yourself than let the blacksmith do it, too

The Shivering Isles is a ton of fun. I didn’t know what to expect in an Oblivion DLC (I barely played the original game) but I was pleasantly surprised by how weird it is. Like you said, it’s an Alice in Wonderland scenario with bizarre quests and a crazy king. Sheogorath’s voice acting is legendary.

By the way you should repair your armor :P

But it turns out they fake their deaths and the camera pans to a small town in mexico: “15 years later…” where you play as their child and discover they’re both alive and well, but bored with their lives. They reminisce on the good old days of adventure before reading the mail and discovering a potential bank to rob. “One last heist, eh?” one says to the other before both of them smile and the screen cuts to black.

Hire fans, or something

Apparently there is a lot more info about the game on the official site: https://www.rockstargames.com/VI

It’s not loading at the moment but it contains some screenshots, character info, and confirms certain locations that will appear.

The trailer looked gorgeous, possibly the most photorealistic game we’ve seen yet. I know it was probably recorded on a PS5 Pro, but the fact that it looks this good on console is wild. Still lame that it won’t release on PC at release.

The opposite used to happen way more back in the day. People would go into /r/rust and talk about the game.

This note was added over 10 years ago… Some things never change.

That’s my experience with 99% of old school point and click games. At some point in every one it devolved into me running in circles and trying every item on every object.

Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, and OnePlus, are exploring the possibility of developing versions of the Android operating system that do not rely on Google Mobile Services (GMS).

Clickbait title. They’re rumored to fork Android which will still just be Android without the Google suite.

This makes me think he knows something we don’t. Is he trying to dodge GTA 6’s release date? There wouldn’t be another reason to move the launch date up by two weeks.

53% is abysmal, it might as well be a coin flip. FYI this article is about a random one called BrandWell, popular AI detectors like GPTZero are much more accurate.

The shelf would only have Bloodborne and Demon’s Souls on it

FYI it fails to fetch votes if you don’t include https:// at the start.

[Have a coin, beggar.]

The old video game industry still blows my mind. Competition was so fierce, there were tons of high quality AAA games releasing each year until things suddenly slowed down in the PS4/Xbone era. Granted, a lot of consoles failed and a lot of companies went under but it must have been wild to see Counter Strike, Baldur’s Gate 2, Diablo 2, Deus Ex, Perfect Dark, Red Alert 2, etc. all launch in the same year.

The indie scene today is great, but the amount of AAA games coming out these years are much fewer, and there’s a 50/50 chance it’s going to be a total flop.
