Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

While it’s great that they’re doing well on the only truly open gaming platform, it’s a shame that they’re being rewarded for infecting their games with anti-consumer malware. Any company that uses Denuvo lacks moral fibre and deserves to fail.

Then maybe they should fucking optimise their PC ports.

Still amazed how well Wilds sold after that dumpster fire of a demo.

I'd also recommend they open up the co-op more, but common sense multiplayer seems a bridge too far 🙄

I am one of the unfortunate ones for whom the demo ran perfectly, so I thought the full release would too. It did not.

Damn, you must have a beefy rig. Even setting aside the weird texture issues, FPS was all over the place for me. Knew it was a hard pass pretty quick.

I wouldn't say it's very beefy. 3080ti and a Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Ran at a pretty steady 70-80fps for me.

The demo, that is. The full game is all over the place for me too.

I agree, but they have no incentive to do so when gamers buy it anyway. People need to vote with their wallets.

Call of Duty sales suggest this isn't happening.

[–] moody@lemmings.world 4 points 17 hours ago

People do vote with their wallets. They say it's ok.

[–] ABetterTomorrow@sh.itjust.works 3 points 12 hours ago

I mean……… yeah

[–] mohab@piefed.social 5 points 14 hours ago

Fantastic, now when are we getting Steam ports of Viewtiful Joe and God Hand?

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago

we've come a long way since the days of console exclusives with no pc ports to this. I remember feeling happy that more publishers started releasing games on PC, now it's just expected.

Of course it does, the install base dwarfs PlayStation. Go where the money is to find money. Business is not that hard.
