After seeing the new leak: It would look really good if it came out in 2016, but holy moly they fucked up with the physics. Looks 1 to 1 copied from GTA 5, gameplaywise its outdated by 10 years even 15 years. The dirtbike racing looks straight up ass

>>48242
And yet none of it matters because it will sell 300 million copies regardless of quality.

which itself was a significant downgrade from IV because they wanted to cut back on the realism for the sake of online play

gta online has been basically roblox and/or second life for a while now, genuinely i'm even surprised the ads have been focusing on the main story so much, when it's kinda obvious it's secondary on rockstar's financial plans and the main course is the map itself which is mostly going to be a lobby for roleplayers

Launch trailer.

every time I run a game my screen starts intermittently artifacting and it's pissing me off, and I don't know what to do about it. gotta do some troubleshooting. god forbid I have to get a new graphics card, shit ain't cheap these days.

>>48266
Take your computer apart, clean it, put it back together, format the drive and install cachyOS. If it still does that good luck finding a new GPU

>>48265
It is indeed

>>48268
I heard its delisted now. I checked the reviews yesterday and it was overwhelmingly negative

>>48274
the senior vice president of sega made a 100+ hour positive review on the game page and it got mass reported for it + no disclosure of AI

What the fuck did I just watch?

>>48164
>Stalin Yes
<Ataturk No
Very based.

Today, Social Democracy is born

>>48271
This is the future Lassalleans want.

>>48271
We love to see it

>>47814
mainly bc id like to see more work put into the game. its fun but the dialogue only lets you say so much it might as well be linear.

>>47814
>but i also know it would be a ton of work
seems like the ideal use case for an LLM, like just match an NPC with a dialogue and sent it to an LLM to pre-generate all lines lol, like they're meant to be throwaway lines for invalid options, who cares if they're a bit shitty

>>47835
couldnt you make an infinite loop of saved dialogue tho? although that could be a game over conditional where you get filled with so much ai slop you blue screen and cum and die

>>47889
>couldnt you make an infinite loop
why would it be infinite? the wrong dialogue options don't need to branch, you're launching what's effectively a non-sequitur, and it seems the characters already understand that you are an automaton unable of conversation, so a single refusal answer is kind of enough, just personalized enough for the situation where it seems organic. You don't even need to embed the LLM, just generate them beforehand.

CP2077's built environment reminds me very strongly of Idiocracy. Although you can only do so many things with a desert climate, loud colors and funny exaggerated advertising.
>>47361
Yeah so this came out. I've only seen bits of the original but it has the same insanely annoying dialogue and it's a restaurant management sim for some reason. The environment design really is class though.

>>48204
I can't get over the fact that the character holding the baby have a revolver with an inverted trigger. AI have still a long way to go…

>>48214

it was meant as a reference because i wanted to draw it emulating Jamie Hewlett style?

but like, learning to emulate his style also involves kinda learning some drawing theory and as a burnout highschool artist i'm not as patient with theory with something i kinda learned to just "do" when i'm bored as much as i do for 3D art which i learned through theory instead… so i'll get to it i just wanted to sorta see it conceptualized already to see if i got more confident on what i wanted to do exactly.

If were gonna be an idea guys thread, what you do is you make it like Spore.
>start as an unemployed guy
>get job
>read theory
>start union
>game turns into squad based gameplay of the store you unionized
>local union management turns into regional management when the union gets big enough
>national union overthrows government
>world conquest/revolution simulator
>last level is making startrek a reality, meeting aliens, and realizing they already did communism.

>>48256
Which is an awful idea because it runs into the same issue as Spore - you are effectively making multiple games and glueing them together, spreading devs too thin.

i want dwarf fortress but more historical materialist

>>48036
Paradoxes took the position of mensheviks-trotskyists - that communism is impossible to build through one state, there needs to be a world revolution. I wonder how much nonsense about "forced inustrialization built on bones and blood" will they put in their game

>>48079
“Workers of of the world unite” is not exclusive to mensheviks-trotskyists.

cant wait until someone decompiles this piece of shit and optimizes it finally so i can play it again

>>48142
Games with realistic graphics will never be scary. You need low poly low resolution smeared textures so you can't tell what the monster looks like and your imagination does work.

>>48224
so you hide your monsters as much as possible to make them super duper mysterious, what's the issue here

like i don't think mosters not being scary is the fault of advanced graphics, but the fault of game designers which lack enough imagination to give the vibe the needed oomph, because it would require inconveniencing the player

>>48226
Maybe we just got older.

What is there to get blown away by? It's just another Silent Hill aping part 2. Oh no I'm so guilty the game.

guyz nvse gonna release ESLs soon

>>48209
I thought they already had esl files? Or is this some new thing?

How come there still isnt any new Fallout game? With success of the TV show, you would guess Bethesda would be jumping at the opportunity to capitalise on the IP.

>>48221
Microsoft is too busy killing their studios to do that
also I heard Obsidian got put on it last time after Avowed and Outer Worlds two shat the bed

I pick legion because it reminds me of ISIS and that makes me happy

>>48187
such a good game; accidentally put 24 hours into it and i only feel like I scratched the surface. Trying to go full iconoclast.

>>48190
I want to go full heretic. Although from what I heard heretic includes the standard selfish evil choices, which I dont find very fun or interesting.

>>48195
wrong the tau are a parody of feudalism not slavery. it's a caste system not a slave system.

>>48217
>it's not feudalism because feudal lords didn't indoctrinate their subjects
aren't you forgetting about the whole divine right of kings, inherently noble bloodlines, and other wonderful lies that feudalism pushed on everyone?

>>48157
No, it wasn't. If you like the Company of Heroes (or Warhammer Dawn of War 2 ) style of RTS its pretty solid. The only problem was there wasn't enough long term support and content. What Ithink undid them is what happens to most RTS devs in the past decades - they decided to focus on competitive PVP tournament garbage first of all. This also doomed Stormgate and many others and that one actually had SC2 style Co-Op from the start but they let it rot etc…but I digress. Comp PVP is only of interest to a handful of hardcore players (and these usually are actively hostile to growing your userbase) whereas campaigns, co-op, custom games and the like are way more desirable, especially for a new game with a new setting

Iron Harvest's setting and story was a unique alt-history WW1 dieselpunk take, but they were working with small kickstarter resources and because they didn't keep growing the playerbase with the aforementioned it didn't get the kind of long term support it could have used. There's a reason that even the Age of Empires series for instance is adding more campaign and co-op stuff and they're doing much better. Iron Harvest isn't bad, but it would have benefited from more campaigns, co-op special missions and standard campaigns etc. Its still worth a play on sale for the campaigns if you like the mechanics/settings, its just a pity it didn't get more.

By comparison, DoW4 has a huge amount of buzz behind it given the interest in all DoW1 and 2, which both had significant DLC and modding expansions alike. We'll see where it goes but I hope for the best.
