Yeah, I read up on it a bit after making this comment. Kinda crazy that they were able to get Unreal graphics to render as the so called “front-end”. Definitely can’t do that out of the box.

That doesn’t make any sense.

Edit: you can downvote me all you want. That’s not how game engines work.

Now i want to try the game

How do you suppose you have a live conversation on lemmy? And don’t say make a post, and then talk in the post. Lemmy is not set up for the type of communities we want, otherwise people would already be using it for that.

What exactly would you be breaking up? Steam isn’t a mishmash of companies…

Turns out pushing out really high quality games, and then pushing out crap makes people not wanna buy the crap. Your name only carries you so far. But, the executives responsible for this shit will just close up the studio, run away with a golden parachute to the next company they’re planning on ruining.

How does that work exactly? You can’t retroactively sue someone over a patent before it was granted… in fact, once you realize the mechanic was already out there, and patent shouldn’t be granted at all.

Generally the control im talking about is whether or not I can continue to play the game.

“A lot of game devs are sloppy about how they handle controllers” - making a game work for keyboards and controllers, and even more so allowing keys to be rebound, isn’t super straightforward. I make games in my spare time, so I encounter this all the time.

Yeah, when I want to emulate old games, I don’t really care if it’s legal or not, especially when I’m emulating it bcz it’s not available anywhere else.

I wouldnt buy a “digital only” platform service if they started paying me for it. No way in hell am I giving up what little control I still have over my physical console.

Ill probably buy the game just to spite Russia. The fuck do they care about some Ukrainian developers game? It doesn’t affect the war one way or the other… unless they’re afraid it’s going to humanize the Ukrainians.

It’s working, my desire to buy nintendo games is going down with every piece of news that comes out about them

Is Nintendo trying to get people to not buy their games?

Lots of people in this thread who have no idea what it takes to make a game.

Game engines are harder to make/update than you think, and if everybody’s expertise is in a homegrown engine, you cant just expect the team to know newer technologies at the drop of a hat.

Well, you did change the story of ff7 a ton, which nobody asked for. I purposely bought the game from gamestop so Square Enix wouldn’t get my money for the game. ff16 on the other I bought on my ps5, and I thought it was great.

Still not playing it after the devs sent play testers a memo not to talk about anything negative, feminist propaganda or covid-19.

Yes, they constantly are pestering me to log into my Microsoft account.
