They're making bullshit as they go and it's really insane, as if Apple will pay for all the Genshin Impact downloads, or Microsoft for all the Unity game downloads. Expecting them to announce that they can track if the same user installed on different PCs that they can reduce costs that way and that we promise it's totally trackable we wouldn't lie about this

Cosmik Debris posted:Even by Bethesda standards starfield is janky and not fun. Yeah  And like, I'm not a kneejerk Bethesda sucks person. My screenname is literally skooma. My favorite thing of all time is space and NASA, this should be the game for me. I'm still playing it, but it hits you with its flaws when doing basically anything in the game save I suppose, for the main quest. The most impressed I've been so far is just getting to land on Enceladus and Europa. But also since I have knowledge of what solar system bodies should be like, it falls a little flat there too. Enceladus has geysers that go out into space, that could be in the skybox if not modeled on map, but it's not there, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's just frozen moon model 6 and I will see another body with the same map in the game without Saturn overhead. Though I don't necessarily hold that detail against them, as the geyser observation is only like 6 months old, hopefully someone does a solar system overhaul mod next year. I will however nitpick about Mars having random gas seeps.

When did pushing back the release date for people who don't buy the moron edition become such a thing? I feel like MMOs have been doing it forever as a preorder bonus, and then pay to win games started adding it to their "founders pack" or whatever. But now I know Starfield was charging extra to play on labor day weekend, and it looks like game I'm actually interested in Lies of P is "releasing" on a Monday unless you pay an extra $10 dollars. Pretty cool how freeing games from the constraints of the physical supply chain seems to have effected release dates in the shittiest way possible.

I think the exact moment my enthusiasm dropped through the floor in starfield was when you go to take off and there's some dialogue about hoping you remember how to do it and it might get bumpy or whatever, and I was excited because I genuinely enjoy the takeoff and landing stuff in elite dangerous, but then it was just a cut scene and I was in space.

I admit I'm only a few quests deep into Starfield but it's really just what you would expect from a Bethesda game. I'll let everyone take that for what it's worth. Kinda wish I could fly my ship onto a planet and land where ever the gently caress I wanted but that's what happens when you listen to game devs too much.

people who mine for secrets in video game code are lame as hell, imagine putting a fun secret in a game for people to figure out and discover down the line and then some dork just combs through your code and finds it in the least interesting and fun way possible. What a dumb way to spend your time, people probably start doing data mining stuff as soon as they buy it without even playing the game.

Remember when WC3 custom map lobbies couldn't get rid of the dota assholes because there weren't standalone ones yet? Just lobby after lobby of the most miserable people on battlenet lurking around waiting for enough other sour jerks to start a match and then all leave 2 minutes in. you'd see them sometimes accidentally join a fun map and just could just tell they were one of the people who came for dota

I remember there were 10 million different dota maps and you could never tell if it was a "legit" release or one where the first player would be given a bunch of extra stuff or invulnerability or some other stupid poo poo. Most map types didn't have this problem it was common on the dota maps though

It's not even a real English accent, that's the northeastern US accent, the british one was made up by the Kardashians of the Victorian age, and that's a fact I learned from a BBC documentary about the English language where they tattled on themselves.

iIrenicus is the best voice actor ever for a reason, and Cid from Final Fantasy 16 is the best recent one for the same reason

Part of why Bethesda can't recapture the magic of Morrowind is because of the perceived need for voiced lines imo
