Whatcha all playing? I've got a few on my list this week. Ufo 50 continues to be one of my favorite purchases in a long time. It's the best collection of games since the orange box imo. The new Zelda has also been stellar. The frame rate issues are certainly unfortunate, and it may be worth it for some to wait on a more powerful switch 2 to play this title, but I highly recommend checking it out at some point. The game is really creative and the Hyrule you get to explore is super fun imo. I want to get back to the plucky squire, but these games have kept me busy unfortunately

I really don't care about MMOs, especially not Korean MMOs, but this is a very entertaining read.

Random trivia; VR is so 90s 🤪 - this is a photo of an offer for a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VFX1_Headgear for ~500USD in 1997. Apparently it was compatible with games like Mech Warrior 2 and did already feature stuff like head tracking for compatible games.

It couldn't happen to a better publisher! This is what happens when you continually release unfinished buggy games that are just copy paste jobs from years prior.

EDIT [context from know your meme of all places](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/godot-engine-user-blocking-controversy-wokot) Apologies :D : Overview Godot Engine Blocking Controversy refers to a controversy surrounding the community manager for the game engine Godot blocking users on X / Twitter and, reportedly, GitHub over negative reactions to a social media post in support of indie games with LGBTQ+ and "woke" themes. The blocking became a subject of viral discussions on X and Reddit in late September 2024, with the hashtag #Wokot used by posters to refer to it. Background On September 24th, 2024, an indie video game developer posted footage from the upcoming Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori on X[1] / Twitter, revealing that it was built using Unreal Engine 5. In the X[2] thread, user @kryztofcheski wrote, "Woke studios always use pre-built engines to make games because they can't build their own engines." In the following days, several X[3] users quote posted the post, mocking the presumption that gaming engines could be "woke" (example post shown below). Natalie Spitzel @nat_the_dev Sorry fellow devs I guess game engines are Woke™ kryztofjønsøn @kryztofcheski • Sep 24 Replying to @AfterWarPlantX @Malice DaFirenze and @GorkaGames It makes sense doesn't it? Woke studios always use pre built engines to make games because they can't build their own engines. 1:22 PM ⚫ Sep 26, 2024 54.2K Views On September 27th, the official X[4] / Twitter account for Godot Engine, run by a community manager, made a post referencing @kryztofcheski's post, calling for indie developers to showcase their "woke" game built using the engine. The post (shown below) garnered over 1.7 million views, 2,000 reposts and 16,000 likes in three days. Godot Engine @godotengine Apparently game engines are woke now? Well then, we won't complain Show us your #Wokot games below 9:21 AM Sep 27, 2024 · 1.7M Views In the following hours, Godot Engine blocked several developers and other users who replied to the post with criticisms. For example, on September 27th, 2024, developer funnygamedev reported being blocked on X[5] by the Godot Engine X account after asking them to focus on fixing and supporting Bitmap fonts (post shown below). On September 28th, indie developer and pixel artist @Cosmic_Scr wrote on X[6] that they were blocked by Godot Engine on X after replying with Godot Engine creator Juan Linietsky's quote "I deeply believe that any political discussion that puts labels to a group of people is one that should not have started." On September 28th, 2024, Godot Engine backer Starkium reported that they were blocked on X[7] by the account over a comment. Developer @dev_bonnie made a post about being blocked by Godot Engine on X,[15] writing, "Erm friendly fire" and pointing out that they are bisexual. 10.0 Godot Engine @godotengine.

Well then, we won't complain Show us your #Wokot games below → 2.7K 172K 15K 1.7M ☐ 1 funnygamedev (mouse) @funnygamedev Sep 27 Can you focus on fixing/supporting Bitmap fonts to properly import into your engine first instead of doing this sort of thing its delaying my project a lot having to try to bugfix this with the little documentation you have for this. Q41 1753 1.7K Ill 46K funnygamedev (mouse) @funnygamedev blocking me for this really mild criticism for something that should be in a 2D engine a while now is making me consider switching to a different engine. There's a proper use of resources and it should be done to fix the stuff you have in there, not adding new things. Godot Engine @godotengine BENA 6 200 You're blocked You can't follow or see @godotengine's posts.

Hey folks, looking for something that scratches an itch. I love the Tales series, but dislike the active combat system. So I'm looking for something in the vein that is low combat or turn based tactical combat. For comparison, I also enjoy Fire Emblem but wish it was more of an RPG. And have recently replayed Dragon Age: Origins (and wished it was turn based like BG3). In DaO I preferred exploring the Dwarven city over combat by a huge margin. Graphics don't matter. Depth of story matters. Ideas?

Now you can play DOOM on your GPU. You are confused? Well this means the CPU is no longer used for the logic of the game, it runs basically entirely on GPU. So the graphics card is not only used for graphics, but the main logic of the game. It just needs a little bit help from CPU to start the process I think. * News Article: https://www.phoronix.com/news/DOOM-ROCm-LLVM-Port * Project Source: https://github.com/jhuber6/doomgeneric/tree/amdgpu It's a fork from a fork of a fork of a fork: [id-Software/DOOM](https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM) > [insane-adding-machines/DOOM](https://github.com/insane-adding-machines/DOOM) > [maximevince/fbDOOM](https://github.com/maximevince/fbDOOM) > [ozkl/doomgeneric](https://github.com/ozkl/doomgeneric) > [jhuber6/doomgeneric/tree/amdgpu](https://github.com/jhuber6/doomgeneric/tree/amdgpu) I quote the developer (from README): > ## why > > Because I can.

Seems to me like this studio never actually closed. Either way, this is at least as funny as Ubisoft's and Sony's dreadful live-service games flopping hard.

The limited-time demo ([link for the lazy](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2318070/Little_Big_Adventure__Twinsens_Quest/)) has no DRM, so all you need to do to preserve it beyond its expiration date is copy the folder it's installed to somewhere else. This works with most limited-time demos on Steam. You can also copy the large number of DRM-free games on the platform to other systems or create backups of them using the same method. Here's a (likely ver incomplete) list: https://steam.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games

TL;DW: - Many enhanced games are getting raytracing when they were using simpler lighting solutions previously - A surprising handful of games are getting 8K modes, though the 8K usually turns off other enhancements like raytracing. They mentioned GT7 and F1 2024 as two examples. - Most enhanced games are focusing on creating a "Performance Pro" mode, which more-or-less gives you the previous quality mode, but at 60fps. Some devs are planning on adding a "Quality Pro" mode that turns on even more features at the cost of FPS. - Most enhanced games are using PSSR to upscale from 1080-1440p to 4K. - PSSR seems to be better than FSR, but still a little worse than DLSS. Oliver noted a few cases of image breakup and ghosting around the edges. - Horizon: FW is not using PSSR, but somehow it seems to be the best-looking of all the enhanced games (in Oliver's opinion). - FF7R is dramatically improved image quality wise - previously, performance mode was real fuzzy. - Dragon's Dogma 2 is getting about ~50 FPS in the troublesome city scenes, but this is with RTGI turned on so that's pretty impressive.

Another trailer that was presented at the recent State of Play. The art style and atmosphere look absolutely incredible to me!

This trailer was revealed during the recent State of Play. I really like the look and atmosphere. They clearly had a good look at Death Stranding, but I love that game so this seems right up my alley. What do you guys think?

Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2828860/The_Forever_Winter/ The Forever Winter, which has launched in early access today, is a grim dark take on the PvE extraction shooter. I'm pretty sold on the art style and premise, but will be holding off until a little later to play the game as it looks pretty rough around the edges. Has anyone played / is planning to play this game?

cross-posted from: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/22527376 > > Rockstar Games' servers have been under heavy fire from massive DDoS attacks in recent days, causing widespread login and connectivity issues for players of GTA Online. These attacks come in the wake of Rockstar’s recent implementation of BattlEye, a new anti-cheat system designed to crack down on in-game cheating, sparking backlash from a segment of the player base. Protesters, unhappy with the new system, have resorted to using distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks to disrupt the servers, escalating tensions between the gaming giant and its community.
