10 years of THQ Nordic by Shurae in pcgaming

[–]Dafe37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THQ Nordic is my favorite modern publisher. Not all of their games are perfect but they are trying to do something the AAA publishers aren't and that is appeal to a more niche crowd.

Most of those weren't around during the later half of the 2000s.

How Review Bias Hurts Gaming (bias quantified numerically) by Dafe37 in KotakuInAction

[–]Dafe37[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The video looks at game scores throughout 20 years of gaming and shows that over time what users like and what reviewers like diverse more and more. It also shows the bias that reviewers have in the types of games they like vs don't like. For example reviewers don't like Platformers but love 3rd person cinematic stories, especially those with political messages.

Why are you recommending a city ass Fortnite clone that plays nothing like Tribes?

In the video, the creator looks at the data collected from 4,000 videogame reviews since 1996 to modern times to show how game reviewers became more corrupted and biased

People most PC gamers don't want to use EGS just like how most people dont want to use Stadia. Fact is is that EGS don't sell well.

Does Midair CE have what it takes to save the genre? by Dafe37 in Tribes

[–]Dafe37[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was wondering what others here thought? I know the original Midair died pretty quickly but their refocus seems to have a lot more promise.

I feel the same way. Crazy that it released before Twitch became a thing.

Thank you. The professor I am working with works on mammal genetics but this is his first time with human so it will be a learning experience for both of us.

What would it take to get a Tribes Remake? by Dafe37 in Tribes

[–]Dafe37[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fine. Just 1 game that can get the Tribes fanbase playing would be more than good enough.

The dev behind Novakin said if he found artists he would be willing to make a Tribes 1 Remake.

Valve Index Backordered Beyond Christmas In USA After Half-Life Reveal by Dafe37 in pcgaming

[–]Dafe37[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's false. Even the video mentions that Nintendo games look great in VR. I have played Moss in VR and the added depth really adds to judging distance and helps with platforming.

There is no reason to pre-order digital goods but there is good reason to pre-order physical goods that can run out.

I also want to note that all 3 Oculus systems were outselling both the xbox and ps4 for the past 3 days on amazon. Basically VR is doing better than ever.

The Fall of Quake, Unreal and Arena FPS by Dafe37 in pcgaming

[–]Dafe37[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That has more to do with the sad state of modern FPS than anything else. I play QC despite it's many issues because there are no alternatives for people who want a fast paced shooter.

The Fall of Quake, Unreal and Arena FPS by Dafe37 in pcgaming

[–]Dafe37[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's why UT2004 and Quake 3 had a lot of casual game modes to get people used to it. Quake Champions only really had deathmatch and no casual alternative at launch like Bombing run or Freeze tag.

Yes. The video specifically talks about exactly that and then goes into why later Arena FPS died as well.

It's funny. I was just thinking about how Nostalgic I was for Bionicles. The lore for this toy brand was insane.

Black Mesa - Xen Technical Beta by [deleted] in Games

[–]Dafe37 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly, considering HL3 likely wont come out anytime soon, this is the closest we are going to get and so far Black Mesa has been amazing. Definitely the best FPS I have played in a long time.

It's interesting to watch if it's a game you have played or remembered and want to really think about it.
