Combat: more than well fixed
Graphics: fixed
Quests: fixed
Even dialogue was fixed using AI and decent voice acting by the modding community. Unfortunately, Skyrim’s level design cannot be fixed. Even worse, Skyrim’s level design is its biggest problem.
I have yet to find a mod author genuinely do anything about how boring exploring the map is and how hard it is to find anything without the in game compass and icon finders. The levels themselves have not changed in their design since daggerfall. Narrow corridors, cramped rooms, and room clutter still pollute all the spaces that should be dedicated for finding items and combat.
There are some mods that merely reduce the environmental clutter, but none do anything to address the trash level design itself. It’s so unfair man. Like fuck, Bethesda has studios full of developers that know how to design levels that are fun to play in.

Is gacha reactionary?

One of the things I’ve found goofy about extraterrestrial cities is the idea that need to have restraints on how far they can sprawl—they don’t. Darktide’s tertium really doesn’t need to end at some arbitrary border. The city wasn’t built on a life-filled planet like earth where environmentalism matters. If anything, it’s weirder knowing that tertium isn’t like coruscant or the mega city from blame!.

Imaging what dark tide wowild be like. A planet spanning hive city with forges, factories, and towers sprawling across the entire planets surface with tunnels and basement complexes digging beneath the surface.

Would make for a far cooler game. Obviously the devs wouldn’t allow that since having even one planet like that would make the imperium even more comically overpowered but fuck, I’d play a game like dark tide with blame aesthetics.

Non fictional books discuss hard facts or ideas. imaginary books focus on giving readers the experience of being in a character’s views whether that character is a real person or an imaginary one made by the author. Games are an amazing art form. They give players a chance to experience what it’s like to be in a moving world.

The best games are the most immersive games. They make you really feel as if you were actually just another part of the world you were in and we’re not just interacting with it. The player really feels as if there’s a world that exists beyond control.

Good games actualize materialism.

>flaw one: jumping with a gun
This should be obvious to any game developer, but it’s quite alarming knowing how many games calling themselves realistic freely allow people to just jump around with a gun as if people just do that. You know how many people who can’t jump in general? The idea of seeing some random probably half emeciated dude jump around as if their fucking athlete in a milsim is ridiculous. Like fuck, even dark souls of all stupid games managed to understand how goofy jumping is in its settings.

>flaw two: forgetting that combat exists beyond the front lines
Believe it or not, there’s a special weapon called ‘artillery.’ The idea that any modern fight doesn’t involve a dude supporting at the back is horribly ignorant of real warfare. I actually find it fun to support friends with some machine gun or artillery fire while they’re assaulting a point.

>flaw three: forgetting to allow players to freely
Again, a little alarming knowing how many self proclaimed realistic shooters forget that people in real life normally give themselves a place to come back and resupply to if shit gets tough. I really do not understand why games like arma or insurgency manage to fuck something like that up. Like hell, even war thunder has refueling stations in the simulator modes.

>flaw four: vehicle combat being always goofy for some reason
There are days where I find fucking battlefield and halo APC fights to be more realistic than the shit you’d get in games like war thunder or hell let loose. It doesn’t take a lot to make mechanized combat realistic. A lot of milsims forget that vehicles normally have a lot of momentum and can accelerate to really fast speeds. Driving a tank really should not feel easy or as fast as it is in these games. I’d also add in that the unlimited fuel really adds to the goofiness. The same logic also applies for aircraft and drones.

It actually looks like a pretty good game after skimming this video. I hope the combat will be more dangerous and punchy though and that the quest/dialogue aspect of the game which wasn't the focus the vid will be good.
Planned to release for September 6th, I think I'll pirate it on day one, or whenever empress does her magic if it's under Denuvo.
Well I would need a better PC, whenever I thought about upgrading my decade old machine to play releasing AAA titles such as Cyberpunk or Callisto Protocol I ended up not doing it because those games were shit, most of the big games recently were shit actually, hope Starfield breaks the trend.

Never thought about the “I’m going to make your favourite franchise mainstream” phenomenon like that. Also never thought that it would be the bourgeoisie themselves who forced people to despook.

You see, the reason why night city is such a shithole is because everyone is mean to each other. Just like in Los Angeles, everyone in might city thinks that they’re a fucking king that doesn’t need to be polite or show humility towards others. No one in night city shows any empathy or respect towards each other, which makes it easy for the corporate rats to extract money from everyone in the city.

At roughly 1:40 talking about a Update that adds some cars for GT7
>Please add more hypercars, koenigsegg or GT3 cars uwu
Fuck i hate them. These people are the reason why nowadays racing games suck so fucking much. Yes, sure please add more le expensive shit cars that nobody will ever be able to afford in real life. Also literally the biggest reason why GT7 cars list (more like shit list) feels so fucking underwhelming is because of these fucking overpriced 900hp speed turds which occupy like 80% of that games cars list. Yes please, give us another Shitgatti Fartron or another variant of the McFarten Fart1. Every shitty new racing game has to have a Lamborgenital for some fucking reason. "Ohhh what? You want some variety and le peasant cars like in the old games? Fuckk you, heres another variant of the Mercedass SLS AMG (AMG standing for Anal Motherfuckin Gayfuck. Fuck.

I don't care about gamergate 2 or whatever but I did think this was interesting

< "The way games are funded you don't use your own money. Even EA, its games are hugely expensive to make, they're upwards of you know 250 sometimes 600 million dollars it's for certain live games it's incredibly how expensive they are and to do that uh your CFO is your best friend.

< "You're counting on your CFO to get you tax breaks to get you in to put studios in regions which are financially favorable and you will borrow the cheap money, you will get a cheap money to do it. Even EA does this. I worked with EA; we were putting together a deal where they were taking bailout money from the banks in the last financial crisis that we had, and they were applying that cheap money towards games, same thing with Covid money. They're applying that cheap money towards games, and what has been the cheapest money while interest rates were still low, you know a couple of years ago it was ESG financing, and so they're going to take this money."

< "Because the returns on investment have been so poor on Wall Street for ESG funds, that source of Revenue is drying it up. This Woke machine cannot continue in the way that it is now for AAA gaming, and I think unfortunately, it's so entrenched that you're not going to see—you're not going to see much of an ability to course correct because the studios are—they're just gonna shut down."
