I'm playing Vampire Survivors. Saw it mentioned here in a thread the other day. Really fun game for €5!

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I just wonder how they react at the office at EA or Activision when Battlebit got populair.

Its just funny and sad to see that these huge companies just don't learn.

For example, I play Call of Duty since MW2. What they do to Warzone is a great example of how to destroy a player base and its community. I mean, after Verdansk (I know there is some nostagia with that map) there was no map like it. The unlocking system for weapons is a grindfest for someone with a actual job and the abilities with lasers (!?) are just so stupid.

Comes all down to money I guess...

Drag and drop HUD's are the best, just move it where you want, resize or disable it. Not many games have such HUD's though.

Hope the text is not too small though

Critic Reviews

ACG - Jeremy Penter - Unscored

Video Review - Quote not available


Attack of the Fanboy - Noah Nelson - Unscored

Baldur's Gate 3 shocks me with it's high level of player freedom found in customization, decisions, and consequences, and the compelling stories, both micro and macro, mixed with the expansive gameplay possibilities.


Checkpoint Gaming - Edie W-K - Unscored

Although my time with the game hasn’t been enough to yet form a full critique, I can already tell that Baldur’s Gate 3 is a very impressive feather in Larian Studio’s cap.


GGRecon - Ava Thompson-Powell - Unscored

Larian Studios is on a heck of a hot streak, and Baldur’s Gate 3’s early signs suggest it could be the studio’s biggest success to date. With rich lore and ample customisation for how you approach the world alongside gorgeous visuals, it’s shaping up to be a title that I’ll remember for a long time - and I’m only in Act 1.


GamesRadar+ - Ali Jones - Unscored

For now, suffice to say that Baldur's Gate 3 feels a little bit like Larian has accomplished the impossible. This is an entire, years-long pen-and-paper roleplaying campaign realized in beautiful fidelity, in a way that brings every tiny detail of your mind's eye to life.


GamingTrend - David Flynn, Ron Burke - Unscored

They simply don’t make ‘em like this, and I can’t wait to experience all this game has to offer.


IGN - Leana Hafer - Unscored

On the whole, I really am loving Baldur's Gate 3 so far.


PCGamesN - Paul Kelly - Unscored

Baldur’s Gate 3’s world is beautiful, layered and complex, and challenges you to attack it how you want. And though this is what makes it a little daunting, it’s also what makes me eager to dive back in and see where the adventure is going.


Screen Rant - Cody Gravelle - Unscored

Baldur's Gate 3 is imposing in stature and its best moments are truly memorable, but some early issues with scale suggest an uneven experience.


Wccftech - Francesco De Meo - Unscored

As of now, however, I feel Larian Studios has done a tremendous job, creating one, if not the most engaging cRPG in a very long time.


We Got This Covered - Ash Martinez - 4.5 / 5

An excellent follow-up to its decades-old predecessor, 'Baldur's Gate III' sets a new gold standard for RPGs in the modern age. Though it has its fair share of buggy problems, the vibrant world, intriguing storytelling, and captivating gameplay more than make up for its shortcomings.


ZTGD - Terrence Johnson - 9.5 / 10

The team at Larian Studios are to be commended, Baldur’s Gate 3 is nothing short of a masterpiece when it comes to RPG’s.


eXputer - Huzaifah Durrani - 5 / 5

Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the greatest RPGs of all time, and a testament to the talent of developer Larian Studios.


Thanks to @simple@lemm.ee

Sigh, hope you had your fun.

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

We spoke about it with Ruud on Discord actually. He's fine with it. Most people understand that nothing comes for free.

Actually, it is even a nice gesture from the developer. The ones who cannot afford it can still use the app, without paying for it.

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

To show some support!

I mean, we're already browsing ad free on here and many developers are making their apps in their free time. I get that this are expensive times, but if no-one would subscribe to such apps. There would be much less developers.

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Uhm... yes right.

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Good point. From now on we will mention the date in the title. For future reference, you can find all posts here.

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Why exactly do you prefer the date?

[-] quinten@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Water sensor near your washing machine.

And a smart speaker connected to HA in the bedroom to play a alarm once the smoke detector goes off.
