I’m thinking of replaying the first Watch Dogs.

There’s a mod that implements a massive amount of cut content, to the point it’s almost a different game.

strongarm ,

I’d be interested to know more about that.

I played through the game using a couple of mods and reshade plugins that gave it the E3 feel, it was really nice and a great gaming memory of mine.

Just couldn’t get into WD2 or 3

2 and 3 feel like saints row knock-offs for 12-year-olds.

The first game was… Genuinely different in a lot of ways.

The mod is called Living City and adds so much, it might almost be the real Watch Dogs 2 we never got. What the series could have been had it not gone off the rails.

15 minute video that showcases the many, many things the mod adds to the game.

strongarm ,

Nice one, thank you.

Been playing Slice and Dice mainly, simple and fits into everything else that’s going on in life. This week I beat it on hard mode, just the once but that’s more than ever before!

Project M, specifically the Dead by Daylight and Chucky tables of late.

It’s fun. Pinball’s delightful.

Been working on Elden Ring Seamless Co-op with some friends - actually two groups, but one plays intermittently so I fork my character to another slot every time. Trying to get my SO to play PlateUp but not much luck there. Also playing Hades Star on mobile but it just makes me want to play EVE hahaha.

Metro 2033 redux and COD WaW custom zombies. Haven’t been in a big gaming mood recently and want something easy and fun. I enjoy the short chapters and fun gameplay and world building of the Metro games, this is my second playthrough. COD custom zombies is just fun and relaxing when playing easy maps and you can stop at any time

Amanduh , in Epic Adds Ugly Tesla Cybertruck To Fortnite

It’s out on rocket league tomorrow and I can’t wait to play with it, I just hope they give it dominus or octane hitbox

Apepi ,

If it doesn’t explode at the slightest touch of anything it isn’t an authentic cyber truck experience.

Amanduh ,

I hope it cuts people with the sharp edges

Too much man. I was initially just playing Atari 50, but I was itching for something with more gameplay so I started Neon White and I am loving it. That game must have been QA’d to hell because every level just flows so smoothly. Then I also started a new session of Monster Hunter World with couple of my friends. Later I was just not around my PC, so I decided to check out what I have on the switch, and now I’m in chapter 4 of Xenoblade Chronicles. Bonus game: Ordia on phone.

Zedstrian , (edited ) in Netflix has 80+ games in development and plans to release "about one new title per month"

I’d hardly count something like a simple Solitaire clone app that could be otherwise played for free as a full game release… In terms of actual games, I’d much rather support mobile ports that can be bought for a one time price tag than those that are locked behind a subscription in perpetuity.

GammaGames , (edited )

It sounds like they’ve got some plans, though I’m not sure there’s anything I’d actually be interested in:

“And this is an area that we’ve been able to move in quickly in a particular space, which is interactive narrative games. These are easier to build. And we place those in a narrative hub that we call Netflix Stories.”

“I think the idea of being able to take a show and give the superfan a place to be in between seasons and even beyond that, to be able to use the game platform to introduce new characters and new storylines or new plot twist events […] I’m really excited to see where this goes.”

Peter_Arbeitsloser ,

I wish those things were separate subscriptions though. Now you are paying for Netflix being a movie/series streaming platform, a flmstudio, a game developer and publisher in one subscription. I just need a subscription for the first thing.

GammaGames ,

I hate it! Would be so much better if they funded regular devs to make regular games that are sold like normal

[Sincere] I feel for the poor developers who are going to be abused by being forced to crunch to heck.

thingsiplay , in Netflix has 80+ games in development and plans to release "about one new title per month"

More exclusive games tied to a specific service or platform. Hopefully Netflix will release their games on Steam as well.

Ilandar , in Netflix has 80+ games in development and plans to release "about one new title per month"

That seems like a lot. Elsewhere Sony was apparently planning to release 12 live service games by the end of the 2025 fiscal year (now halved to 6). The world of mainstream game development seems to be absolutely nuts at the moment.

dev_null , in Epic Adds Ugly Tesla Cybertruck To Fortnite

What’s up with everyone calling it ugly? It’s a shit car, but I think it looks cool. Something that has no place in reality, but fitting in a video game.

sleepybisexual ,

Fitting in a Mario 64 romhack you mean

tomato ,

People tend to judge everything Musk related like that. I also think it looks cool. I’d love to drive something this unusual.

dev_null ,

The cybertruck has enough issues that I wouldn’t want one, but yeah I would like a car looking like that, if it was actually a good car not made by Tesla.

tomato ,

What if it was a really good car but made by Tesla?

dev_null ,

Then it would be good. But they already tried making one.

ah yes, spend billions on terrible mobile games and wwe and then wonder why customers are fleeing when their prices keep going up

hagelslager , in Are there any voxel-rendered (if that's the term) game like Voxatron?

8-bit Armies/Hordes by Petroglyph? Westwood style RTS games (Dune II, Command & Conquer) by folks who worked on those games.

Edit: never mind, these games are animated IIRC. Just keeping this reaction up in case someone else is interested in these kind of games.

fogstormberry , in Are there any voxel-rendered (if that's the term) game like Voxatron?

it sounds like you want an internal voxel grid and for all the art and animations to respect that grid. I don’t have any recs but I’m posting in solidarity because I feel the same way about pixel art games

onlooker OP ,
@onlooker@lemmy.ml avatar

Much appreciated nonetheless. And yes, that’s precisely what I’m looking for.
