Nintendo doesn’t care if they are successful or not, they are one of the most litigious companies around.
If they can sue, they will. If they can’t they won’t.
Anyone saying or thinking that just because of the statement or just because its popular, they will or wont take action really havent paid attention to how Nintendo operates
Yes, Palword has been very successful, in a market that Nintendo doesnt even ope...
Being a Pokemon style game has never been an issue, just look at TemTem, there was never any kind of similar discourse about it.
If there is a problem with this one, it will be whether they truly used ripped Pokemon models for their creatures, and I dont mean just similar designs (though I gotta wonder why they even made some of them so similar in the first place), I mean taking the character models directly from the games
This really isnt a Pokemon game though, its just your standard Survival/Crafting game like Valheim or Ark (not that I dont enjoy it) with Pokemon style creatures
I dont understand why people keep saying its direct competition, if anything, its misleading people who will truly think its a Pokemon style game (like TemTem for example)
I mean, if even 1% of the stuff listed in the pokedex was true, it would literally be impossible for that world to exist, its pretty clear its basically some kind of joke by now
Because they already mentioned and showed the feature working in real time?
Which is something we already know works differently in Skyrim.
Even just reading the small description under the title was enough to know what they are talking about and why they are saying it “fixes” said issue found in Skyrim
Do you seriously need to have a HUD showing in the gameplay to be able to differentiate when its gameplay footage?
Almost everything they showed was gameplay footage…
Well, it’s certainly much easier when you can sell the handheld for minimal margin of profit or even at a loss because you have the biggest PC storefront in the world to back it up.
For anyone else, they HAVE to make their profits on the hardware.
No one else but Microsoft will be in a similar position to launch a PC handheld like the steamdeck (putting aside that the MS Store doesnt really compare with Steam, but at least they have a storefront and gamep...

You dont get to 3/4 or more of console sales being for the disc version just by giving out anecdotal data or guessing that people might occasionally buy a physical game. I’m not making up any numbers either, again, they are straight from Sony’s financial reports.
Which is why I mentioned the possibility of the Disc version maybe being the SKU that was most produced if we want to reach the kind of ratio he was mentioning.
Thou...
Its not 8%, its 67% DIGITAL games to 33% Physical, and that % actually represented a drop for digital, in previous quarters (and previous years) the gap between digital and physical has been even higher
So unless a huge amount of people are getting the physical PS5 but buy mostly or only digital games, or its the SKU that Sony produces more of despite such a preference for digital games, it would be quite weird for the Disc version of the PS5 to outsell that much the Digita...
Lol, why are people disagreeing? Those are literally the numbers taken from directly from Sony’s latest fiscal report.
The only question left is whether people are buying the physical edition console despite buying digital games (I actually do that, the disc drive is for movies, though even physical movies are also dropping in sales) or just getting the cheaper digital version.
I suppose it also depends on which SKU Sony produces more of, though I gotta imagine they also wou...
i would say the problem with gamers nowadays would be when they are suddenly expecting content updates for a game mode that has been out for 5 weeks…
Even normal updates can easily take a few weeks to do.
And thats not taking into account that there isnt inherently anything gamebreaking about the bugs in Lego Fortnite?
Can it be better? Yes. Can it have more content? Also yes. Is a completely functional and serviceable game mode as it i...
Unlikely given most games sold for Sony are digital (or people are buying the Physical PS5 but still buying digital games). Even for Nintendo the digital sales finally outpaced physical ones.
“Zooming in on PlayStation's physical/digital sales split (which looks at units sold rather than cash), just over two thirds (67 per cent) of software sales were digital in Q2 2023. This is a slight increase year-on-year, but down compared to Q1 2023.”

Only thing I didnt like is that the performance mode cutbacks dont play well with the art style, it looked significantly better in the Quality/30fps mode, which yes you can get used to, but for a crossgen title and one which artistically might be quite nice, but technically isnt pushing anything out of the ordinary, I was really expecting better graphical settings for the PS5 version.
I’ll play it on PC anyway so its not something that particularly affects me, but I was sti...
It has just barely been 1 month since the game mode came out…..kinda hard to blame them for not putting out a whole bunch of content and updates in less than 5 weeks since it was released
Does it?
Not that its not unbelievably idiotic that something like this exists, but its not exactly new, they have a pack like this every year (with a price that is constantly going up since it “has more stuff”), so its hard to call it a NEW low when its been going on for a while.
At this point I just have to think that while some part of the game does actually exist for regular people to play, this whole other part of it has to be some kind of money lau...
Also curious as to whether there is any surprise showing, that image certainly looks like it can fit another game (and the whole presentation being close to an hour would also hint at something else being shown), though last time out even with the surprise reveal of HiFi Rush they did include the developer in the image, just not the game, so who knows?

I’ve played every single Playstation console (technically didnt own a PS2, could only afford 1 console in high school, so I got a Gamecube and traded consoles with some friends every couple of months so we could all play everything)
I have owned every Xbox except the OG (actually sold my Series X when I built a 4090/7800x3D PC early last year)
I have owned practically every Nintendo console except perhaps the original gameboy ...

You do understand that DLSS and XeSS are also “AI” upscalers? DLSS literally means DEEP LEARNING super sampling… they all use machine learning to train their models…
DLSS has dedicated hardware in the GPU for it (because of course it would, its Nvidia) and FSR2 and XeSS dont use dedicated hardware.
But they all do the same thing in the end, with very similar results all around in terms of performance and image quality, with t...
No, they do still increase (not indefinitely though)
Previously level 29 was as high as anyone could go because they dropped so fast that it was impossible to get pieces to either side.
But a couple different techniques came out throughout the years that allowed players to go past that level easily.
The other issue that eventually came up besides the drop speed were the color palettes get really weird after level 100 and something, so t...
This isnt the MMO, it was a survival game. And I wouldn’t really call it development hell either, plenty of sites are saying it was in development for 6 years, but just from the few things known about it, it never really seemed to actually have gotten to a full production level, so most of those “6 years” were probably just a lot of planning and pre-prod by a very small team, followed by a small push in the last year or 2 to try to get the greenlight for full prod (which in itself isn’t reall...
