No, no. Let’s pat them on the back for drawing a line in the samd—all by their own initiative—and sticking to it. We all know how hard it is to develop a game with offline mode these days. I salute them for sticking to their promise.
I’m glad they’re testing too. It must be so hard to figure out how to overcome IP checks to launch a game and have it run. True heroes of the industry. No doubt we’ll see indie games follow with offline options too.
Just get another disk or partition and get it running on that. If it goes fucky, boot into Win and game, try again later.
I have one, but remembering the password and all that is too much effort.
Huh? A Fortnite-Disney metav-
Unfortunately it depends on who’s doing it. Who’s creatively in charge and what freedom they get.
At the moment, it’s reliably bad. Even when the vision is good, it’s dominated by invested poo poo.
Feels ritualistic at this point.
Bethesda does the thing; gamers and modders do the thing. Bethesda says, “Whoops!” We all laugh.
Only difference this time is it feels like 76 has been out longer than when they usually try this.
Yes, but at least it’s well regulated and for militia purposes-…oh, wait, that part of the constitution is for TP.
Yeah, but you’ll get a few hours in and uninstall because you stop playing.
I think the issue is there’s a constant influx of young gamers entering the market and all the old tricks are new to them. The teen to young adult age bracket is very lucrative and will never stop unless we stop having sex and procreating. If we all abstain for like 20 years, we’ll finally disrupt big gaming and also have no one in chat insulting anyone’s mother.
Counter-Strike skin betting platform CSGOEmpire has claimed responsibility for the stunt. “Some of our men are on the ground in handcuffs,” wrote CSGOEmpire founder Monarch on X after the incident. “But we fucking did it, boys.”
Monarch says that the stunt was a protest of alleged “scams” by competitor CSGORoll, which it fired accusations at in a blog post titled “The Wars We Wage.” In a post last summer, CSGORoll said that unnamed “malicious competitors” were targeting it with a “hate campaign.”
“These malicious competitors have engaged in a hate campaign against us, and claim that we are running ‘scam websites,’” the site said. “We do not know their motive, but we suspect that it is a personal vendetta, based on a grudge and is designed to try and harm our business and gain a competitive advantage for themselves.”
Kill me if I ever become this petty and all I can see in the world worth protesting is this.
Is there anyone left in the video game industry that knows how to do video games?
Being stuck inside during COVID gave me that epiphany. Now I buy games to save money. It used to be the other way around, but these days a night out or going for a day trip somewhere can cost more than a game that’ll eat up hours of my recreation needs over the upcoming months.
I’ve never been one for staying indoors and watching TV for too long, but it’s just costing too much to go out the front door often. Games feel different and they scratch my itch to go out, especially if friends are playing too.
There better be at least one car on fire in the streets of Paris.
Bullet dodged, Sony.
Modding for me. Whenever I’ve loaded it up again, it’s been with immersion mods that make stuff like weather exposure, food, and travelling things you have to manage. It’s a different game and you do things differently, like, you’re not getting to High Hrothgar until you hunt some furs to wear and have a good tent to shelter from blizzards on the way up. Many mods also bring in entirely new content.
New Vegas was definitely a treat, though. I found Fallout 3 quite mediocre and never ended up finishing it. Skyrim sort of falls in the middle there somewhere.
Meanwhile SoT churns out content and updates, maintaining a very active and solid population over the years. Plus full PvE mode coming soon which will be fun for a lot of players wanting to casually enjoy all the Tall Tales content.
I can imagine a lot of SoT players giving it a go, just to go back. I think the ship’s sailed on this one.
As an adult that can comfortably afford more than one game every six months, I forgot that Overwatch, Fortnite, and Apex Legends exist. The games that’ve released—,especially in the past 6 months—why would you even bother with BRP till?
Oh you can know. It’s a viewable page within the menu. I’ll leave it to you to search up on where.
