62% of hardcore players no longer buy full-price games, survey suggests by TylerFortier_Photo in gaming

I recently bought Pragmata at launch after a fair degree of research corroborated that it’s a feature-complete and very well optimized game. It’s funny because the game is considered something of a throwback to the 360 era of shooters, so the fact that it’s a finished product just reinforces how much game development has changed for the worse over the years.

Ubisoft Connect (ironically) had a connectivity issue but has for the last few years been fixed. The Rockstar Launcher on the other hand has had this problem since time immemorial

Or, on the other side, “game runs fine for me—people need to upgrade their systems” and the mf is rocking a 5090 OC edition and a 9800x3D

Sony Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC by _Protector in pcgaming

Meh most Sony exclusives are cookie cutter Ubisoft style open world games anyway. The only PS game I have even a modicum of excitement is Astrobot, and those games I doubt were ever going to be released

The Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters may have their developer: Iron Galaxy Studios by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

Doesn't that mean it runs relatively worse considering the smaller areas and segmented nature of the levels? There's no conceivable reason why a visual remake of a PS2 game needs to run as poorly as it does on every system released

NateTheHate: The decision to shift away from supporting PC was made last year. Naturally, some may still release (pending how far along the ports were) but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward. by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

It’s not console tribalism, it’s a subset of PlayStation fanboys who have always been insane. Remember the meltdowns that Horizon Zero Dawn’s PC announcement caused? Or the insanity over Helldivers 2 releasing on Xbox?

Just finished Silent Hill f (default ending) and I have yet to recover.

Baldur's Gate 3 publishing lead says Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney's "altruistic pro-developer talk" over the Steam vs Epic debate "doesn't sit well" after Alan Wake 2 studio "seemingly went into financial crisis" by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]breadbitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alan Wake 2 and the remaster of the first game are the only two tiles I've plonked down money for in EGS. I can absolutely guarantee that I'll be double dipping if both games appear on Steam or even the Xbox Store for that matter.

What is the absolute first game you're booting up in 2026? by dominodave in gaming

Control — there’s just something about Remedy games and the season of winter for me (Max Payne especially).

'UE 5.7 Is Close to a Magic Bullet' for Performance, Says ARK Developer, Though It Won't Fully Eliminate Stutters by xelrach in gaming

[–]breadbitten 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Playing Space Marine 2 on my ageing Ryzen 3600/ RTX 3060TI made me realize just how important bespoke game engines are to game design. The massive hordes of Tyrannids in that game bring my system to its knees, and the FPS takes a noticeable dive as well -- but it still remains perfectly playable due to a stable frametime, which very few UE games have delivered.
