Almost at the end of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition

Finished Chapter 13 Act 2.

So Chapter 12 was the original edition ending? What was that ending? Also Chapter 13 seems like a filler, specially Act 2. Hopefully Act 3 is better. Still, good to know what happens next, even though not rhe fan of the direction it took.

As for the side stuff, have done most of things below Level 45, not much above it. Though I am level 60, so most of that should be easy enough, but I want to see the ending first. I probably won't do the side stuff that requires level above 60, but let's see.

Played more Marvel's Midnight Suns. The super hero drama continues. I am focusing more on story missions now than then side missions, but doing them if it catches my eye.

Put a pause on Ghost of Tsushima. Want to finish Marvel Suns before getting back to it.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

Finished chapter 11 of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition

Chapter 11 story spoilerThey tried to redeem him! I knew they would! He killed last of the species, this is the super-villain stuff. Maybe I am too old for these things...

Played more Marvel's Midnight Suns and Ghost of Tsushima, but nothing new to add about either of them.

Also, just got my switch 2, so will be trying out Mario Kart World over the weekend.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

As a dev (but not a game dev), this can be either good or bad, depending on how the team is grouped, and what their development flow is.

Half new devs means, half of them are veterans, which would also include team leads and the managers, who will plan, review and test whatever those devs are doing, so if their workflow is solid, other than some slowdown in development speed, it shouldn't cause much issue.

But arguing over whether or not you should use this engine or that engine, the engine is in service to the game. Is the game good? I don’t care what the engine is. The game’s good! Let’s play the game.

That's the problem, the games aren't good anymore!

I think we should just forget the game exists. One day they will announce it, but until them, let's just assume there is no Silksong, and Team Cherry is just taking a long long vacation.

Just told my kid about it, and his face broke into a huge grin. I guess that's the target audience.

Though, Netflix has generally been pretty good with their animated shows, so won't mind taking a look at what they do with Minecraft myself.

According to a comment on another post on lemmy. The takedown notice is fake, probably sent by some troll. Garry's Mod is still removing stuff though, because they think it's real.

That saves us from all the rumours of Switch 2 getting announced at Gamescom this year.

I don't know why everyone is so angry at this comment. The question was about what will it take for subscriptions to increase and become dominant in industry, the guy answered that. The interview was with the guy about Ubisoft's subscription service, what else people expected?

If anyone talks to the guy in-charge of Gamepass, and they ask them how will gamepass increase, they wont' say, well, if everyone keeps buying physical, that will be great for us.

I don't know about Xbox, but drift issue is pretty common in PS5 controller too, and I recall reading that all companies uses sticks from same manufacturer.

Everyone online sings praises of 'Hall-effect' sticks, but no one (Sony / MS / Nintendo) is currently using them, probably because of higher cost.

If this works, this will probably solve the issue for Nintendo at least.

Well, as pretty much the biggest instance, it provides the best data for load-testing. 🫣
