I've never seen a Bethesda game that was utterly broken from start to finish. Even their worst games (which are decidedly a hot mess) they were still not even close to being technically broken as Cyberpunk 2077 and we have to set the bar really really low because a lot of Bethesda releases come close to being technically incomplete. Now Cyberpunk 2077 is technically incomplete with absolutely broken AI from simple animations to how they function in the world, lots of broken...
Digital Foundry's channel was just terminated according to YT for violating community guidelines.
What guidelines. Guess we'll have to follow their Twitter to find out.
What a waste of an article.
Article: 'PSP Go was ahead of its time because it was digital only'
The reality PSP Go was ahead of its time because it basically did everything. It was smaller, lighter, quieter had the same battery life despite a smaller battery, it could be played on a TV with a PS3 controller and was the first console with any kind of game resume feature.
Yeah way back in 2010 the PSP Go allowed users to play a game and stop that gam...
Translation: If there are Xbox gamers in Japan who buy from that retailer or if other retailers follow suit they'll need Gamepass and a PC because you can't buy the console anymore.
Xbox looks at this as a positive?
But I can still play GT6 offline... what about GT7? For that matter what about GTS when PD moves on from that??? Oh right... YOU LOSE YOUR ACCESS TO THOSE TITLES FOREVER!
Sounds like a deal. SMH
You literally just argued that their current online only title didn't prevent cheating... and now they're forcing that on people who play offline too as it it even matters if they cheat.
As someone else said cars that require DRM licenses to obtain (aka: Paid content only) wouldn't work in your PS4/5 via a savegame file edit because you don't have the license for said content which isn't handled by the game, instead by the system.
Rega...
Way more drawbacks like NEVER EVER BEING ABLE TO PLAY THE GAME AGAIN after PD move to GT8.
You know just tiny little details like that.
Separate saves.
Seriously that is my answer and it's a rock solid one. If you need to be online to play online have a different save file. Not that hard. Of course they could gamify MP itself (which they shouldn't have any problems with since that is exactly that GTS has been doing for years now).
There is ZERO excuses for locking SP behind a constant network connection.
FM is trash though... still if GT continues down this path I might have no choice but to get my fix from Forza Motorsport. I'm not sure that will be a thing... then again right now I still don't see a problem with GT Sport, but it remains to be seen if they will continue to support GTS after GT7 comes out having some of the same key tenets.
That said I stopped buying NFS and didn't pick up other EA games with Online only SP experiences. That is just a bridge too...
We don't need a constant connection to post a comment or even to watch non-streaming content on YT (because the way most of these things work is not by requiring constant connections to function). GT Sport requires a CONSTANT CONNECTION.
Asphalt 9 Legends requires a CONSTANT CONNECTION as well. If you lose your connection for more than 10 seconds the game restarts. It can happen at any time too. Just finished a particularly challenging race but lost your connection befo...
Yeah no.
They should make an online only save file to prevent online cheating. Many games do just this as far back as PS2 on PlayStation hardware. There's no real reason for this at all.
There's always ways to unlock content via save files but in the case of DLC game content you need to also fake your licenses for ownership of the content. Pretty sure licenses aren't part of save game data.
Agreed what PD are doing is totally unacceptable.
They must make an offline save game and a separate online progression save game.
I accepted GT Sport's online only component but I will skip GT7 for the first time in the franchises history. I'm still looking forward to pick up FH5.
I can't believe this is happening myself.
Delay the game and make two saves if you want to prevent cheating. Don't f••• us offline gamers.

MSFS 2020 doesn't work offline on PC at least. Even when purchased through the built-in MS Store (the digital storefront that comes with MS Win8/10/11).
On Xbox consoles I guess that's different but on PC you must be online to launch the game (unless you own it on disc allegedly). That said after initially launching the title and disabling online features you can cut the cord but you will lose everything including paid for content and access to off...
The longest running PS exclusive franchise of all the ones shown is Gran Turismo which is releasing their 7th game in the mainline series which dates back to 1998 on PlayStation (1994). God of War dates back to the mid-late PS2 era while Marvel's Spider-Man is arguably the best Spider-Man game I've played (I have Miles Morales for PS5... but no PS5 and I'm not going to buy the PS4 version it's part of a pre-order gone wrong due to limited PS5 stock) and Horizon which has only ...
What confuses me most about this is why these developers don't just ask to talk with level-headed black gamers and see what they want if a game was made to include them?
Why pander by just inserting people with what is somehow considered a diverse skin tone (or indeed people with diverse sexual preferences) into games today. Like why not make a game they will actually "want to play"?
Also while they're at it go ahead and have a sit down ...
@ecchiless
Thanks, it's nice to know some people read my comments and understand them.
What annoyed me most about his video is that he does know what he's talking about but chooses to deliberately claim that the ultrafast switching to two stages would be possible as is on much slower hardware regardless.
Jak III's opening cinematic shows us that couldn't happen; it would take too long.
Jak and Daxter does what Jon is inferring.
Those PS2 games used only realtime cinematics & they often took you to disparate areas in a blink due to careful scripting.
Naughty Dog took their level streaming abilities to new heights with Jak III's opening cinematic which took you from The Wastelands to New Haven City then back to the Wasteland back to New Haven above the city as the palace falls then back to the wasteland before wrapping up to the title screen all play...
Jon Burton is a videogame developer not just a regular arm-chair developer.
That said he does miss the point completely!
Indeed they are a shadow of themselves. They pretty much already had their crescendo by 2005.
