overview for WMTYRO

Despite being one of the biggest Unreal Engine 5 games ever, Stalker 2's locations are almost entirely hand-crafted: 'It took a lot of time, took a lot of effort, but we're happy with the result' in c/games@sh.itjust.works

Baldur's Gate 3: If you decided happily ever after wasn’t for you, there’s an assortment of evil ending cinematics new to Baldur’s Gate 3, arriving with Patch 7. in c/games@sh.itjust.works

Idk, I can live with Asterion, Shart, Lae’zel and Minthara.

Recommendation for a high-quality webcam for Linux in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I recently found out about Anker and I bought a wired ergonomic vertical mouse as I had been experiencing wrist pain recently. High quality for a very low price point, and from the looks of it most of their products are like that. Also helped with the wrist pain!

Discord to start showing ads in-app this week - Dexerto in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] WMTYRO@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

While I’m generally against in-app ads, I think it’s interesting to note how many people in the comments likely did not read the actual article linked. It seems that every user can entirely opt-out of seeing the ads. While they are ads, they aren’t really so in the traditional sense: you stream a developer’s game to other users on Discord and you can get gifts in Discord. Not so bad I don’t think, though I don’t use the gifts much at all, and it’ll probably be for the types of games I don’t play.

Embracer suggests Star Wars: KotOR remake isn’t coming out for over a year in c/games@sh.itjust.works

I would very much like a tinker-free KOTOR that supports widescreen resolutions, but besides that the original has no issues.

Should You Buy Helldivers 2 Right Now? Arrowhead CEO Says It’s Worth Waiting Until the Servers Problems Are Fixed in c/games@sh.itjust.works

Obsidian’s Avowed Will Defy One Major RPG Trend (romance) in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] WMTYRO@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Good, hopefully they invest their time making the other writing aspects as well as gameplay, better. Romance isn’t a necessity in RPGs.

I was already intrigued by this Disco Elysium-inspired, D&D-based RPG where you play as the world's worst cleric, but its demo blew my expectations out of the water in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] WMTYRO@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Haven’t read the article but the “worst Cleric” reminds me of an old YouTube series called JourneyQuest that followed the party of the worst Wizard ever, who was so bad because he had dyslexia and couldn’t read spells correctly.

Linux 6.8 Network Optimizations Can Boost TCP Performance For Many Concurrent Connections By ~40% in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] WMTYRO@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Unfortunately, many games where people care about that lower latency tend to be competitive with some kind of anti-cheat that doesn’t mesh with Linux.

Steam keeps on winning in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] WMTYRO@lemmy.world 23 points 8 months ago

Not sure anyone in this thread knows what the word “monopoly” means. Steam has competition, it all just comparatively sucks.

DayZ Happy 10th Anniversary in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] WMTYRO@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

10 years ago, DayZ taught me some very valuable lessons: do not buy into the hype trains, never preorder games, and rarely trust early access games. However I’m glad they didn’t abandon it, and fixed a lot of issues along the way.
