Games

They were also behind the PS3 ports/remasters of Ico and SotC, which helped those titles reach a wider audience.

It isn't even due to low sales or anything: Sony bought them after the DS remake in 2020, assigned them to some "live-service" God of War game that seemingly got pretty deep in development, cancelled it, and then just didn't give them something else to do (Like say a Bloodborne remake that many were hoping BP would do eventually). Just pure mismanagement.

Who else is down for a Hexbear StS2 night?

As we rain hell down on Big Ant with our grenade launchers he says “it’s everything i wanted to do in helldivers but cant”

I will continue the helldivers 2 hate posting until sony turns off the servers.

So it apparently dropped on android now, and since I've got a good android gaming handheld, figured I might give it a go,

I am hardly interested in playing with other people, so does it have story stuff or other game modes I can do solo? As for the core gameplay, what's it like? Some gameplay videos make it seem like sort of a third person hack n slash or shooter with stylish movement, sort of like a scifi DMC? Is that accurate? Guessing there's a ton of loot and cosmetics too.

I love stylish action games, so if I'm getting the gist of it, sounds like I might give it a shot if it's free (or can easily be pirated)

About 2 weeks ago there was a disturbing post on the gaming comm: "Forgive me for I have reinstalled Overwatch". Now, while the poster only said an additional "I'm sorry." (I forgive you), several commenters had the absolute audacity to post things like the cool new jetpack cat character, "at least it's not League", and "Overwatch is a softcore pornography game". I shudder just remembering the excuses.

Well, it worked, because I'm ashamed to admit that I relapsed and got into Overwatch again. I... I knew the deal was sealed the moment I could link my old account and get all my old skins back from a decade ago. Not only that, but I tried playing with a controller, and it was awkward, but as soon as I switched to keyboard something snapped and my muscle memory came flooding back. I was playing like I never left. The old Symmetra and Torb might be gone, but damn can you still troll the shit out of people on casual play with DVA and Moira. And there are so many new characters to learn.

I had perfectly good games purchased from steam recently that are now collecting virtual dust. Sonic Racing? I played two cups with NPCs before leaving. Ball x Pit? Loved it, but I'm never going to 100% it now. 150+ hour addiction to Megabonk? I can't even remember the old metas, much less whatever the new abomination strat is. I'm embarrassed to admit that I don't even remember Noelle's little pixelated face. (I will take responsibility for one personal failing: buying when I could have pirated, but that's an entirely different addiction, let's stay focused here people.)

I even bought a bundle of Sherlock Holmes games this year to try and get my brain to work properly again after severe work related burnout. Now my job can expect mediocre work for the same stagnant mediocre pay several dollars above state minimum wage that I've received for the last several years. Does my smol bean mega corporation deserve such a cruel long term punishment for one wittle project mismanagement that lead to multiple people quitting and being fired while upper management ended up mostly unscathed? I think deep down you know the answer.

And most lately, I've committed basically the same unforgivable sin as Eve did: I lead my they/them Adam equivalent partner to play Overwatch. "Yes honey, you can still be a Reaper main and spew edgelord character lines. It's perfectly normal." Never mind all the billionaire pedo stuff happening right now, I'M THE ONE NORMALIZING HELL. Lord, have Mercy on us... fuck SHIT not that Mercy, just regular mercy. Now we do quick play matches together, and I can't even complain about DPS not doing enough damage anymore. S-sometimes I even... leave my tank and support responsibilities and join the DPS. How do I fucking live with myself now??

Pray for us not to fall even further and start playing competitive, or we'll truly be past the point of no return. Overwatch: Not even once.

If you want a good view of what it must have looked like when Stalingrad repelled the Nazis and Nazi high command had to blame someone, check out the Helldivers sub on

They are absolutely melting down right now

Peak fascist infighting

I think 4x, no I don’t have any reasoning for this. Purely vibes based

All the other Lemmy videogame communities disallow humorposting but the rules here don't seem to mention it, so hopefully it's ok

If you're wondering how come they are so many people in one channel - they're actually all in separate channels, in their "squad"'s channel. But you can also bind a "shout" keybind in Mumble settings so your voice is transmitted to linked channels. In this case in the video you can see the "Command 1" channel and people can shout it from the regular line member channels.

So many special little silly experiences. So many to play on my steamdeck. All of them that would struggle on my single core celeron gma 950 integrated graphics on my old laptop. Oh the dynamic shadows of shadowground and nocturne. The steam deck is my favourite way of playing almost all of my games its probably the best handheld to come out ever.
