PunchingWood , to games in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Gameplay Teaser

Man I really gotta get into finishing the first game some day soon.

I got like 8 hours in back when it came out but it never felt like I had even really started yet. It didn’t help that at the time there were pretty bad gameplay mechanics with limited savegame options that made it quite annoying to only play short sessions, but I think they’ve fixed/changed that since.

Do you get a loading screen when you step in and out of the vehicle?

You are avoiding the question.

What does Putin have to do with this?

PunchingWood , to games in Dune: Awakening – Exclusive Gameplay Reveal

I’m quite happy it’s an MMO type game. Adds a whole lot more depth and interesting end-game mechanics.

I believe you could still play it as a single-player game, but you’ll probably miss out on the PvP specific content.

Did he release this game?

Considering the downvotes I take that as a no, and ya’ll ran out of other dumb arguments. 🙄

Well that explains something, but honestly it has nothing to do with the actual game itself. Would be kinda weird if reviewers focused on that instead of the game.

I’m not sure how that’s supposed to be relevant to the game and reviews of it anyway?

PunchingWood , to games in Black Myth: Wukong launches to almost 1.5 million concurrent players on Steam

I read some reviews comparing it more to God of War and Jedi Survivor games.

Which sounds pretty good to me, although the style of the game hasn’t been really been appealing to me (yet).

Not sure why people downvote you, but most must be. Because I checked the player count this morning in Europe and it was also at 1,5 million. The only ones that play games in early hours of Europe are a majority in Asia, more specifically China. This has also been my experience with online matchmaking in early hours of the day, it’s 9 out of 10 chance I got matched with either Chinese or Koreans during those hours.

I knew of this game but had already forgotten about it. Just got notified recently because the benchmark was downloaded a lot past week.

PunchingWood , to games in What games popularized certain mechanics?

I can’t remember if that mod had squad spawns. But I definitely remember playing it a lot, that was an absolutely revolutionary mod with so much content, not to distract from other great BF1942 mods though. I believe the original DICE team originated from that mod team to create Battlefield 2 as well.

PunchingWood , to games in What games popularized certain mechanics?

First thing that came to mind are the Dragon Age games before, at least Inquisition was sort of action RPG.

Before that in a lesser extent the Assassin’s Creed games, although they were more action than RPG.

That said, I greatly enjoyed all these games, including Witcher 3.

I don’t remember being possible to spawn on teammates in BF1942, but definitely remember it as a first to select spawn points on map like Battlefield always did.

PunchingWood , to games in What games popularized certain mechanics?

Battlefield 1942 always stands out to me as the one that popularized large scale online battles on big maps with vehicles. At the time it was revolutionary in online gaming.

Command & Conquer: Renegade came out around the same time as well, with similar features. I kinda wish that game had a sequel as well.

Another gameplay feature that comes to mind is the exclamation/question mark above NPC characters for quests. I remember it first from WarCraft 3, but I think it really kicked off with World of WarCraft to get adopted by many more games.

PunchingWood , (edited ) to nostupidquestions in How is Lemmy better than Reddit?

I was practically forced to move to other platforms, including Lemmy, because Reddit’s way of dealing with things is absolute garbage. Their app is garbage, their ethics are garbage, their admins and moderators are garbage.

In short I got permabanned on the entirety of Reddit after confronting a moderator in my favorite sub violating their own (and Reddit’s) rules and content policy. Which eventually led being banned on the sub by said moderator, and later Reddit got triggered as I was “avoiding a ban” with an alternative account (which happened accidentally).

Since then it’s been impossible to get in contact with admins, and they’ve been autobanning any new accounts I tried to set up. I’ve been trying to appeal my bans dozens of times in the past year, but never get an actual response from an actual admin, I doubt they even have humans working at Reddit at this point. That’s on my 8+ year old account…

Previously I also got permabanned on dozens of subs for commenting in a sub that was supposedly brigading, I didn’t even have any harmful intention or said anything worthwhile of a ban, yet all those completely unrelated subs banned me for “participating” in the brigade thing.

It just shows what absolute trash moderators and admins of Reddit are. They’re all only playing their own little agendas. They’re only destroying their own community with stuff like this. I miss my favorite communities, but I absolutely don’t miss the garbage surrounding it.
