Can anyone tell me if it’s worth playing now, if you never played those games when they came out and don’t feel nostalgia while playing them?

And now we know why the original was delisted on steam. Don’t buy into this crap. Buy the original on gog for 1,50€
I’m curious to see how the combat mechanics will be accepted. Reads like Mass Effect in a high fantasy setting. Could be cool, but at the same time, Dragon Age fans will come to expect something more strategic.
I think that take is short sighted. Because the next obvious step to “no right to online anonymity” is “online anonymity is illegal”, and it’s pretty obvious we’re headed that way. In that case, courts can make it pretty fucking hard to protect your right to privacy.
I started it as well. Had weird sound issues that I had to fix by downgrading my system sample rate. It looks and feels amazing now that it works.
I played through the invincible. Great story, visuals and voice acting. I am however reminded, that walking simulators aren’t really games. The whole thing should have been a mini series.
That’s really surprising to read. The game has been been described a solidly mid by every review outlet. Does portability really offset the repetitiveness by that much?
The characters are great. It’s not BG3 obviously, but there’s enough depth there. Like I said, it’s on the level of a goofy action movie plot from 20 years ago. No ones gonna get an oscar but you’ll be entertained nonetheless.
It has a lot of Doom-like exploration for new gear and other goodies. Also a handful optional bosses which are pretty hard to beat. But the shooting revolves around basically 3 weapon types (magic types in this case): a DMR, an SMG and a shotgun. The variations thereof don’t feel different enough and the feedback lacks kick, so the shooting doesn’t feel very meaty. It’s still solid enough, but the story is definitely what carried me through the 20ish hours of the game.
I just finished Immortals of Aveum. I really liked the story. Felt like an early 2000 science fiction action movie. It’s gorgeous looking but the shooting didn’t have enough oomph to be really fun, so I stopped playing after the credits rolled. Didn’t feel the need to 100% it.
I think tmdb should have you covered
I think you severely underestimate how our devices are networked nowadays. It’s not about the device directly next to you. It’s about what is beeing agreggated in the back end. Google and Apple have an extensive BT and Wifi map that can locate specific devices very accurately at all times. Which of course is enriched with other device data from installed apps, like where you shop, what you shop, maybe even vitals from your smartwatch etc. to create a scarily accurate persona attached to your name. That’s on a whole other level than what you can do with a license plate.
That being sad I respect your choice as well. Being privacy conscientious is a bit of work.
It’s not the music, it’s location data. BT broadcasts a unique ID to your device. Every device with BT will receive that ID to check if it knows you. That’s inherent to the protocol and works as designed. Apps will be able to learn yours and other peoples location that way. That’s basically how Apples Airtag network operates.
I know, it’s defo more comfortable. Like I said, I just can’t deal with the privacy issues related to BT. If there were earbuds supporting some kind of privacy friendly wireless protocol, I’d use them.
Redmi Note 7. It’s pretty old. Luckily the batteries are still ok.
Still a requirement for me. I listen to music and podcasts while I run, and I run a lot. But I don’t want to deal with the privacy issues of leaving my BT on when I leave home. And USB dongles physical connections just aren’t as reliable with a lot of motion.
That’s not quite what I meant.
The argument I most often see and is that TikTok should stay because Facebook and Google are just as bad. That’s stupid because foreign espionage is obviously worse than domestic espionage to any government.
If your argument is that the TikTok ban is good and Facebook and Google should be next because of the similar practises then I’m 100% with you.
I don’t understand why people get so upset about this. Yes, Google, Facebook, etc. hoard your data too. But there’s a big difference wether that data is hoarded domestically or by a foreign nation that is pretty blatant about their industry espionage and political propaganda. Yes, the US do it too. But you really can’t blame a country for protecting it’s interests, be they ethical or not.
Linux mobile is a necessity. Apple is regularly dragged to court because of their walled garden bullshit and Google tries to catch up to them in that regard
I think you’re hitting the nail on the head. A lot of publishers are blatantly misusing EA to put out an unfinished piece of software to socialize the testing, and hope for a more understanding playerbase because of the EA status. Not only is it manipulative, it also skews reception like it does here. Personally, I categorically skip all EA because I only buy finished products. Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be interested in a good tribes game.
