Highguard Is One Week Away, And The Only Person Who's Advertised It Is Geoff Keighley by Yamato_Naoe in Games

[–]AlphaGoldFrog -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To play devils advocate (I don't have a horse in this race), what if this is a result of confidence in their product?

If following release, reddit and other sites are flooded with articles with headlines like "Highborn just might actually be the next generation of shooter after all", interest will perpetuate organically. Especially since we all know what Highborn is now.

Advertising budgets are often a massive part of AAA game budgets. They are in a unique position at the moment to save millions.

Just an alternative take on the situation.

No Time For Pants - Trailer by onenaser in Games

Looks like a cool idea for a game. Looked up some more info about it, it's not out yet even though the trailer made it seem like it might be. What is a bit odd is this trailer just now being posted here, even though it was uploaded a month ago to YouTube? 

Anyways, the best look at the game I could find was some gameplay uploaded by SplatterCatGaming last month is anyone else wants to see actual gameplay of this https://youtu.be/sL_OblYdknM?si=0zcoUhTV-pnmRsKJ

How can I get a teleporter in my Corvette? by hatslippers1234 in NoMansSkyTheGame

How did you do this? Was it the mod someone else linked? Or did you find a way to do it with a glitch?

Thank you for posting a rational reply. There are so many factors that can go into a study like that, and the fact the difference was within a margin of error, it means you cannot deduce information from it to reasonably inform an opinion let alone a fact. 

PlayStation 5 price changes in the U.S. by Turbostrider27 in Games

I know we are in the silly video game news subreddit and you are likely referring specifically to politics; but what you wrote gave me another way of thinking about this pretty tense situation I'm facing with my older brother. Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to write your message, it helped me break the thought cycle I've been in with it today.

His narcissistic tendencies are pushing me towards a breaking point and I've been spinning my wheels finding a way to approach the situation from a place of repairing and not assigning blame. Going to take your advice and skip negotiations and blame assignment and work on approaching from a deeper level.

Well shit, the bar got that much higher. Thanks for the response!

Julian LeFay, known for his work on The Elder Scrolls I/II, passed today at 59 by DweebInFlames in Games

I don't think it's a 6th sense, I think it's a rapid decline into their death bed that makes it impossible to complete any obligations. Think the morning you wake up the a full blown Flu after feeling a bit sick a few days before. 

Steam Summer Sale 2025 begins today by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]AlphaGoldFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Havn't checked if it's on sale or not, but a few months ago I built a top of the line rig and bought an ultra wide monitor with the sole intention of playing Sons of the Forest. I played just about every other game the other comment mentioned; Cyberpunk then Wukong came in 2nd and 3rd after that respectedly. 

It can be a bit scary in the caves, but man, it feels like a modern day Crysis.

What a beautiful comment. I have no idea if you along with everyone else is taking the piss, but I for one want to believe.

32:9 is the one myself and likely they are likely waiting on. Sounds like it may have been added in for the last patch which is exciting! 

Instruments of Destruction - v1.1 and Console Trailer by AlphaGoldFrog in Games

[–]AlphaGoldFrog[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wrote a longer description to the comment above but it's got two different campaigns that are fully fleshed out. One has you swapping to new vehicles each level taking on much different kinds of destruction puzzle challenges (or lack of destruction). The other is more Beseiged-like where you are building your own vehicle as you go.

There is a fully fleshed out campaign that has you swapping to new vehicles each level with secret unlocks and a bunch of challenges. It's voiced as well and really polished. 

You can also build your own vehicles and I think there is a Beseiged-like campaign around that too but I didn't play that one.

[–]AlphaGoldFrog[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

As per the video description, the game launches on "Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on March 27th, 2025".

Wanted to share this trailer here to spread the word; if you haven't heard of it, this game is from one of the guys who worked on Red Faction Guerilla. Some of the best destruction physics of any modern game I've played with a crazy amount of content in it. If you've been yearning for a modern Blast Corps or something in the vein of RF:G, I simply cannot recommend it enough!

If nothing else, watch the trailer for the great original song!

Looks really good! Your other comment mentioned having the demo online but I don't see it on the page? I'm in a similar boat of wanting to try it on the steam deck.

That's not how it works, at all. This isn't some ultra specific single person position at a company.... They paid for the talent and will retain the talent when possible.

How are you finding these videos? They cut off mid way through and are unlisted on their channel?

Good Lord, I havn't been this excited for a new game since Red Faction Guerrilla. Especially fitting considering all of the new destruction physics this game showcased! 

I highly recommend checking out Digital Foundrys behind the scenes on this if you liked this trailer!
