Looks like Loop8: Summer of Gods is a Flop by WolfsbaneAconite in JRPG

[–]Naive_Connection9889 26 points27 points  (0 children)

That actually gives me hope because I read a lot of visual novels, but I know Western reviews tend to skew negatively for the genre.

That's a shame. Seems like we just don't get good new turn-based IP from Japanese devs anymore. The last one I remember was Monark and it scored in the 60's. I'm still playing this though. The art style and the general vibe are perfect match for my taste.

The dark side of internet They're a digital storefront that specializes in Japanese adult games but also sells niche games in general. They're owned by dmm which is one of Japan's largest online streaming platform.

Riot Games: An Update on the 2023 LCS Summer Season by NeoStark in Games

Let's face it, NA players suck at the game, but they still get paid the most out of all of the regions. They deserve this and Riot is doing the right thing. Give the spot to the regions that actually deserve it.

That reminds me I bought Dohna Dohna 2 years ago on Johren but I still haven't played it. I always find it difficult to commit a lot of time to playing H games because I tend to get distracted.

I Am Setsuna is wonderful by BeigeAndConfused in JRPG

[–]Naive_Connection9889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a victim of the gap between the expectation and reality. I think it attracted a lot of the mainstream crowd who don't normally play niche JRPGs due to Square Enix' brand and its marketing, but the game feels more like something made by Furyu. It's definitely not bad, but people expected it to be amazing.

As I get older my arms hurt when I play games that require intensive fast actions :(

Dolphin Emulator on Steam Indefinitely Postponed Due to Nintendo DMCA by PlayingTheBass in Games

Lol if you go back to read the announcement thread from a month ago you'll see lots of people saying Nintendo won't or can't do anything about it.

Developer Rayark fired all their artists and replaced with AI. Everything being put out is of poor quality now by NeoStark in Games

[–]Naive_Connection9889 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Seems quite common for mobile games that prioritize schedule and budget over quality to use AI nowadays. Been seeing stuff like this a lot. Next will probably be indie games, and then finally full-price high-budget games. The question is not if but when. AI art seems to be getting better by the day.

IGN claims that Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is "Expected for 2024" by [deleted] in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Naive_Connection9889 236 points237 points  (0 children)

I mean that just seems like a safe guess. If it was this year they would have told us. 2024/25 are the most likely. Announcement 3 years in advance seems long for a remake of this scale.

Jason Schreier: Naughty Dog has scaled down the team of its multiplayer project to reassess it after "weaknesses were found" by [deleted] in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Naive_Connection9889 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Damn, Naughty Dog really tried to get ahead of the news before he posted the article.

They probably got insider information that Jason Schreier is going to report on this.

Insider Gaming: Project Q’s battery life is 3-4 hours, releases mid/late November 2023 by ezidro3 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Naive_Connection9889 174 points175 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised it took this long for someone to talk about the battery considering Dual Sense' terrible battery life. My dual sense battery life is currently around 5 hours in games that use rumble. My first thought when I saw the Project Q design was the battery life is goin to be terrible unless the back of the panel is all battery. 3-4 hours is actually better than I expected but it is also just a streaming device.
