Two years after the Unity controversy, how are things going with Godot?

Jump

  • Aims to provide realistic lighting and everything

    Named "Unreal"

    • What is this shit? I have to be signed in to watch any video now?

    Jump

  • Our community is so delicate. It could die if they see a bot watching a video.

    • Record scratch freeze frame

    Jump

  • ...or to be thrown down.

    • Steam is cracking down on porn games, to keep Payment Processors happy.

    Jump

  • We already have Steam Marketplace. You can buy stuff with your Steam Wallet.

    • Windows 11 will soon be able to describe images on your screen using AI — and it'll all be done locally

    Jump

  • A small conversation with Copilot makes my laptop choke on RAM, and that stuff is processed on cloud. No way I will allow Microsoft to run an AI locally.

    • What is the most ridiculous vampire rule you've heard?

    Jump

  • I think those were berserkers who spreaded their infection on other vampires and also drank human blood. In Trinity Blood, they are very few, don't need human blood and also kind of main characters.

    • What is the most ridiculous vampire rule you've heard?

    Jump

  • Cool rather than ridiculous. Trinity blood (anime). Basically, it introduces a new type of creature that feeds on a vampires' blood (and doesn't hurt humans), a vampire level 2 of sorts. Light novel and manga (which I haven't read) go into further details, and it involves alien bacteria and an apocalypse.

    • FBI says it's now seized "multiple" ROM piracy sites, claims downloads resulted in $170m losses in just three months

    Jump

  • So Nintendo is gonna become richer by that amount in just 3 months?

    • Nintendo bans Switch 2 owner after they played used Switch 1 games — decision eventually reversed after 'proving innocence’

    Jump

  • Online function is a very broad definition. User is basically left with a crippled version of what they had. No ability to update anything or download new games. Not much different from a brick.

    • High five rule

    Jump

  • I always smile when I see those cute guys. Hope they find enough food and live long.

    • 'Knowing Steam players are hoarders explains why you give Valve that 30%,' analyst tells devs: 'You get access to a bunch of drunken sailors who spend money irresponsibly'

    Jump

  • I'll just find another torrent tracker where its improved 1.5 version is available.

    • 'Knowing Steam players are hoarders explains why you give Valve that 30%,' analyst tells devs: 'You get access to a bunch of drunken sailors who spend money irresponsibly'

    Jump

  • So basically "Valve discovered a gold mine by selling you so many games" and "it's your fault for spendijg money on games". Yeah wait wut? As if it's someone's fault that so many games are getting released. Also ending with "beware, not every customer is a die-hard fan". Wow.

    Go crack the F2P business model next, Sherlock.

    Jump

  • I would download a nice steak and a healthy salad instead!

    • All the officials and businessmen who have died mysteriously in Putin’s Russia

    Jump

  • That's still less lifting than can be found on Putin's face.

    • 'There are no plans to drop support for SteamOS': The Finals devs commit to Steam Deck and Linux players despite new kernel-level anti-cheat

    Jump

  • Point taken. Still, I think designing the game around positive things like team work and rewarding experiences is important.

    I can't see why server side solutions won't work when implemented properly. High ping? Just provide more servers and allow players to filter that out or do that automatically.

    • 'There are no plans to drop support for SteamOS': The Finals devs commit to Steam Deck and Linux players despite new kernel-level anti-cheat

    Jump

  • There is a 2-part solution:

    • Build a game people enjoy playing more than winning.
    • If you need an anti-cheat solution, design one on a server side.

    • I'm sure this has been posted here before, but it's too good not to repost.

    Jump

  • The author is an illustrator from what I remember. It's a totally valid point. Automatic transmission is one thing. Wasting resources on creating an image or an essay is wasteful and everyone should realize this.

    • NVIDIA is full of shit

    Jump

  • They probably mean the majority of people, not 4070 Ti owners. For them, buying that 4070 Ti would be a better choice already.

    • Microsoft has never been good at running game studios, which is a problem when it owns them all

    Jump

  • Freelancer 2. Will not forget.

    • Greedy AAA companies can't comprehend the Valve mindset.

    Jump

  • Owning megayatchs... is not equal to being an evil corporation like Sony or Nintendo. Steam is not a monopoly either, or at least it doesn't try to become one with predatory tactics like, say, Epic.

    As for defending, I know people suffer due to what people like Elon did and does. I know no person who suffers from what Gaben did or does.

    It's not Gaben simp squad story, it's Gaben hate squad story. And I don't see adequate reasons for that hate. Guess some people just like dividing everyone into "good peasants" and "evil multimillionaires".
