It hasn’t been. It’s just as clunky as it’s ever been.

“But for me, it was Tuesday”
It’s Ubisoft, they’ve been allergic to finishing shit for decades now.
I love that this comes out of Dragon age’s dev team, as if they weren’t part of the reason why people started being so aware of reuse and just general laziness.
Also, nobody cares about reuse, we care about reuse that makes the game worse.
The fact that dragon age 2 had 6 dungeon tilesets they reused super lazily with a very mediocre random generation algorithm and they got shat on for it doesn’t mean all reuse is bad, it means the ratio of content to playtime has to be higher than whatever that fucking was.
But most of all, going from a completely bespoke, no repetitive side quests, all killer no filler CRPG to whatever the fuck DA2 thought it was going to be? Step down, no matter how much of it would have been original assets, it was just worse design and a lower overall level of craftsmanship. I could throw that gameplay loop together in a day of work, it’s just not interesting.
I love that we still can see a sane take sometimes.
Tbf most could do it for cheaper with a dartboard and some post-its
Soon to rebrand from “game” to “merch”
The words change, the business stays the same. Been that way since mass effect 3 and dragon age 2, at least.
Hidetaka Miyazaki has eyes and ears, more at 11.
Game journalism is a marketing tool. When pieces come out preemptively defending a product (any product) from some specific criticism, it’s because the company is both confident that those criticisms will be levied, and that they won’t shake out favourably.
That’s it, that’s the whole reasoning.
They know they won’t come out looking in any way comparable in terms of scope, quality, etc, and they’re putting their hands forward through their connections with the press, hoping at least some people will buy this obvious attempt at ass covering and refrain from publicly criticising their product.
Every console they release is so locked down you can’t even install their own os on it, I think you’re wrong.
For my money? It won’t allow that without jailbreaking.
I mean, yeah, and that’s a concern for a slim minority of people, I wouldn’t buy a quest 3 and my quest 1 is seeing very little action since it became clear just how much data is being harvested, but if I had to buy something at this point it wouldn’t be the PSVR2 either.
For one we don’t know if they’ll be harvesting data, or how much, for 2 it’s wired and dependent on a computer.
At that point I’d rather wait for whatever standalone Valve may eventually sell.
Not really, unless you really don’t want to use Meta products (at which point I’d wonder why you would rather patronise Sony of all companies) why would you not get a Quest 3 for the same amount as a psvr+adapter?
The quest 3 is lighter, higher res, can work standalone and doesn’t need a wire to work with a computer. It beats the PSVR2 on pretty much any metric you care to name, except that its screens are not oled hdr.
Yeah, during work breaks or when chilling in the living room with my wife while she does her hobby stuff.
It’s not my main machine by any stretch of the imagination but it does see regular use.
Meh, I can see that, my dad is the same way, the trick is he hardly uses one and treats it like an OSHA situation when he’s operating it.
TBH it’s not the worst habit to have.
Yeah, hard to have a lot of concurrent players on a 5 hour window
Wasteland 2 and 3 exist
Almost done with Persona 3 Reload, still the best story out of the 3D personas, and I’m starting on Manifold Garden, which is very interesting and quite trippy.
