Knowledge Fight! Pretty much the only I regularly listen to. It’s two friends listening to Alex Jones. The premise is that one of them knows nothing about the insane stuff Alex Jones spouts and the other one has researched it and kinda shows it to Jordan (the one who knows nothing about Alex). They are hundreds of episodes and the show is still as funny and informative as day one.

Yeah! I played it something like two years ago and it aged wonderful! I mean, I wish them all the success in the world but this game doesn’t actually need a remake

Man, I so wanted to love this game! Instead I just liked it. The graphics, the world, music, even the story are so well made and interesting to look at and explore. I loved the mining town at the beginning or the town with the ghost house! The only thing holding this game back is the somewhat stale level design between the interesting places you explore. They feel like flat 2d Zelda dungeons with a handful of frustrating design decisions to make them harder and take longer to finish. Still, I will probably get the DLC to show support for the devs and the interesting world they created!

Edit: Jesus fucking christ! I watched the trailer after commenting and didn’t see they made a Harvest Moon/Stardewvalley style DLC! Day one purchase!

No Mans Sky still to this day sells pretty good. Sure, they don’t sell a million copies every week but Hello Games is pretty small and they can comfortably keep pumping out content even if they only sell, say, 15k per month. And given how NMS is still talked about so frequently, how they launched for the Switch recently (my second copy btw) and how well received the VR was, I think that number is pretty reasonable.

The corporation, not the general product - an engine that powers tons of great games.

“Hey Google, wipe my ass!”

Jfc guys, could it be more obvious of an ai written “article”?

I think they underdeveloped the science weapons! I started using some too late in the game but some encounters definitley felt “different” to the normal gunplay.

Kingdoms of Amalur is pretty decent! Not very complex in the RPG department but a big high fantasy world to explore. The combat is very action oriented and you can play a lot of different builds. Pretty satisfying, too! The game is a bit older (ten years or so) but got a re-release two years ago. So, the graphics are a bit dated but not ugly. The art style saves it imo. I enjoyed it a lot when I played it last year!

Yeah, I saw Kindergarten Cop too!

I always wondered on what engine the first Xenoblade Chronicles is running. Absolutely massive beautiful landscapes and it runs absolutely smooth even on the 3Ds! No pop ins either!

After the WiiU? Nah man, the Wii was already way behind the rest and from then on out they stayed a generation worth of graphical development behind.

I honestly don’t mind that at all but I am also not the target audience for the latest and greatest in graphics. I love a great indie roguelike just as much as “complete editions” of triple A games from a couple of years ago.

Cassette Beasts was also made with Godot! https://godotengine.org/article/godot-showcase-cassette-beasts/

The two (also slightly different names) I see on my Spotify have a “Viral songs on tiktok” playlist in their profile. So it’s probably a way to spread/spam songs around?

Eh, there are quite a lot of additional services and products Google is selling. I’d argue they want both: my money and my data. And then they turn my data into more money.

I love Dredge! But I think I finished the whole game in 4 or 5 sittings over a weekend. That’s not a comment on the game’s length per se and more on the fun I had. I just didn’t want to stop playing!

Well, welcome to the club, I guess? Hard to understand how a corporation as big as Google (or Alphabet) has such a hard time catching up to other music/podcast services. I am subscribed to Youtube premium, so I try Youtube music every once in a while and it’s just not as good as Spotify! The playlists Spotify generates are lightyears ahead of anything Yt music has. And the main page of YouTube music is just random stuff that has nothing to do with anything even remotely similar to stuff I listened to. Also, so many artist pages still have no additional information about the artist/band.

Anyway, for podcasts I prefer Pocketcasts. The free version is more than enough for the amount of podcasts I actively listen to.

Haha, Mortal Kombat 1 called, they want their money back!

So if one is not very experienced in game engines but likes to tinker and try out a game engine, is Godot something I could check out? I mean, without knowledge of coding.

I am totally fine with them only marginally improving combat. Fighting monsters in the first Dragons Dogma is still to this day the best feeling combat in any rpg! What I hope they improve on is the story, the way the story is presented and the way the player can impact the world. The only character from I can remember by name is Mercedes and only because I accidentally let her die in her escort mission and then for her to appear later as if nothing happened.
