Uhhuh. “Feedback”, read: risk of class action lawsuits from everybody they tried stopping from reaching the support they paid for

Just an early access update. Full release will likely be late this year.

Sony doesn’t own them, they’re just a big investor in them.

I’m a BIG fan of Monster Train so this was a delightful surprise. Their last game, Inkbound, was really good as well.

This is great, but also WEIRD because Valve have historically gone after TF2 fan projects in the past few years. I guess they just changed their minds?

Rumors are that, aside from being a major engine overhaul, they’re looking to do a soft reset for R6Siege to attract new users. Nobody’s sure what that could mean since I doubt they’ll remove characters from the game, maybe it’ll be a separate game mode.

Plenty of devs think it’s easier than it is. A ton of games are built on proprietary tools, and then you get into legal hot water on whether you can even give away things like the soundtrack or assets you bought like stock sound effects.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they looked at it after the petition and thought “wait, I actually can’t open source this”

I’m surprised it hasn’t happened yet considering it bombed and barely sold any copies

Aside from everything said, the best thing about it is that it has a proper story mode. There are lots of singleplayer gamemodes like 1v1 races, eliminations, drift challenges, time attacks, ones where you have to fly through rings, etc.

There’s also good progression in that you unlock characters and mods for ones you play, such enhancing drifting or focusing on balanced stats.

I was playing it just a few weeks ago, it’s still the best kart game by far. High hopes for this one.

A $40 co-op focused spinoff. From what we understand the game loop will be jumping into a randomly generated world with friends and surviving with friends for 3 days. There’s a playtest soon, we’ll see how it actually plays then.

So the answer, as always, is ban useless, power-sucking, unreliable, copyright-infringing AI.

That’s naive. It’s way too late for any of that. If some country decided to ban AI, all the engineers will just move somewhere else.

I remember being so happy that outage happened because they gave away free games. That’s how I got to play LittleBigPlanet for the first time.

Why? There are plenty of proper games that benefit from early access, and plenty of people that enjoy early access.

The greenlight system wasn’t any better, all it did was gatekeep indie developers while still being easy to manipulate.

Especially in a game like Civ. it’s hard to know how people feel about it until a week or so later. I remember when Civ 6 was said to be the best game in the series on release, but after spending some time with it, it was lacking. Reviews like these are more of a first impressions.

It’s been out on playstation for a while, but it just now released on PC.

The image generation is really bad. Image description capabilities seem good but it’ll take time to see if it’s better than what already exists.

They probably just put it out to keep the hype going.

Making a dumb tweet doesn’t make you a fascist and doesn’t invalidate the years of hard work people put into a non-profit swiss company, you should get over yourself.
