It’s barely recognisable from the below average game that released in 2016. There used to be nothing to do in it, now there’s so much to do that it’s overwhelming. It’s a very good game now, and you have to give credit to Hello Games for what they’ve done to make it what it was always supposed to be.

Still some things I don’t love about it, but on the whole it’s well worth playing if you’re into that type of game.


When a fire breaks out on grass, it spreads like it would in real life. In FC2 you could watch a small flame spread and become an inferno. It was awesome. Games don’t have anything like that these days.


Mechanics from the Mercenaries series. Destructible buildings, getting weapons and vehicles dropped to you anywhere at any time. Being able to ally with different factions. Oh, and the ability to call in airstrikes. Bunker busters, cluster bombs, artillery barrages, etc. Just Cause and Metal Gear Solid V are the closest things to that. But they just aren’t the same.

And the ability to just fly like Superman. I’d like that in more games.




Surprised to see one of the team on Lemmy! Bannerlord is an awesome game, I’m looking forward to trying this.



Lmao even free is too expensive with that shit baked in


What people still see in this joke of a franchise I will never understand.




You deal with this by telling the bigots to go fuck themselves.




I agree. It feels like it would have benefitted more from being a linear game than an open world game.


My problem with Cyberpunk is it feels like all style and no substance. Night City is probably the best looking city I’ve ever seen in a game. The world designers did a phenomenal job with the visuals and atmosphere.

But it just doesn’t feel like there’s enough to do in the city or ways to interact with it or the NPCs. There should be more buildings you can enter and more activities to do. For me that’s what sets GTA and Red Dead apart from Cyberpunk. They have much more to do when you’re not on missions.


It feels like we’re in such an advanced stage of capitalism that even profit motive has become secondary to completely insane sociopathic power tripping. Even the ideas of having a content workforce to improve productivity and a good product to retain a loyal customer base have gone down the toilet. Large companies now just flagrantly lie and cheat more than ever.


All I care about is when I can download the cracked PC version.


the half a dozen times I’ve tried to stick with it in the past


Witcher 3. Only 15 minutes in and I want to stop playing it already, which is a new record for how quickly I’ve got bored of this game in the half a dozen times I’ve tried to stick with it in the past.

I need to stop listening to people who tell me to give it one more try. I just don’t like this game.



Labour is dead. The UK left should get behind Zack Polanski’s green party. They’re surging in the polls and have taken over both Labour and the Tories in some.





That’s why pirating AAA games is morally justified.



That’s a good shout, although I’d like to try it for a couple of days at least. I think I already know the answer to my own question unfortunately!


Is there any way of trying Battlefield 6 without buying it or paying £17 for a 1 month EA Play Pro subscription?
Call me cheap, but I hate EA and don't want to give them any money on principle, but I'd like to try BF6 and see how it's changed since the beta.

Sprocket, it’s a game where you can design and operate your own tank. Want to build an outrageously impractical 50 ft long tank with several turrets and enormous wheels? You can do it.


It would have been shit anyway like all their games of the past ~10 years




On paper EA being dead is good, but I’d like it to be dead and without parasites making money off of the corpse.


I don’t know I just want to bang her


I watched a video last night that concluded that the story of GTA San Andreas begins on January 1st 1992 and ends roughly around late April-early May 1992. That was a banger.




The problem with V for me was that they released content for GTA Online for years and completely ignored singleplayer. So many heists, weapons, vehicles, outfits, and game mechanics that would have been awesome to try solo, but were only available with a damn internet connection and in a world with other players. Thankfully mods fixed some of that. But it’s not the same because you mostly have to spawn things in with a cheat menu.


I think GTA 6 will be an outstanding game, but I also think it will be Rockstar’s greediest release to date. I will make sure to consider everything before I buy it.
