Tycoon Games@lemmy.world•No More Robot’s new cruise ship management sim is hella bleak, despite the input of former Overcooked devsEnglish
6·7 hours agoThis looks like a solid gaming experience. Nothing out of this world, but a decent tycoon game.
I wonder how big the maps are (the one in the trailer honestly looked small).

Tycoon Games@lemmy.world•18 years before Planet Zoo, everyone loved Zoo Tycoon (2019)English
2·2 days agoNever knew it was available for the DS! Although it makes sense they would release a DS version.
I wish there was a remastered version of Zoo Tycoon (compatibility updates, UI for higher resolutions and possibly some better textures/assets).

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Vampire: The Masquerade® - Bloodlines™ 2 released on Steam [mixed review] [Steam Deck playable]English
3·2 days agoApologies, I misunderstood your comment. :)
Yes, I largely agree, although I generally can’t stand motion blur at all.

2·2 days agoWhat’s wrong with not being able to turn off motion blur being a deal-breaker?

Life Simulation Games@lemmy.world•Server shutdowns claim another victim: The Sims Mobile will disappear for good in JanuaryEnglish
4·3 days agoEA is highly unlikely to do this.
Tamagochi Rebel Alliance is pretty funny. I am not surprised your wife dislikes the term. :)

Games@lemmy.world•Xbox ditching hardware and exclusive games "makes sense," former Microsoft exec and Blizzard boss says, as "only a moron would continue" making consoles as games go third partyEnglish
221·3 days agoI would argue that this actually makes his opinion more relevant, as executive management is more likely to think like Ybarra, as opposed to someone that regrets the decline of Blizzard.

Games@lemmy.world•Xbox ditching hardware and exclusive games "makes sense," former Microsoft exec and Blizzard boss says, as "only a moron would continue" making consoles as games go third partyEnglish
11·3 days agoI wouldn’t limit it to x86 though.
Playstation 2 supported Linux and it ran MIPS, which was the architecture used in SGI Indigo systems, perhaps most famously seen in Jurassic Park’s “it’s a UNIX system” scene.
It seems that even Playstation One has an (early) public Linux port.
There is no right answer of course. :)

18·3 days agoI guess it depends on how you define PC. But older consoles also used CPUs that were found in desktops (and laptops), although they weren’t PCs in the strict sense.
- Sega Mega Drive (and other consoles) used the Motorola 68K that was also used on Macintosh and Amiga.
- Game Gear and Sega Master System used the Zilog Z80 which was also used in the ZX Spectrum and other computers.
- N64, PSOne, PS2 used MIPS CPUs which were often used in high-end computer systems (SGI).
Consoles did often have custom GPUs though.
That being said, these days both Playstation and Xbox are literally locked down, custom form factor, AMD Ryzen CPU + Radeon GPU PCs.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•The Latest Xbox Exclusive [Keeper, from Double Fine] Has Debuted To Less Than 200 Players On SteamEnglish
101·3 days agoThe reviews for this game seem to be mostly positive (albeit it does seem like a short game). Surprised they have a mere 200 CCUs considering that DoubleFine is relatively well known.

Games@lemmy.world•Lessaria: Fantasy Kingdom Sim Release TrailerEnglish
2·4 days agoI still play the original Majesty to this day (it’s been a quarter of century since I tried the demo from a gaming magazine CD).
There have been a lot of attempts to make a real sequel to Majesty. This seems like the closest one, but I have yet to play it myself.

Citybuilders@sh.itjust.works•OBRII, a turn-based Mars colonization city-builder, with a focus on economic strategy and terraforming, released on Steam.English
2·6 days agoThis is unfortunately very common. There are many games with interesting mechanics, themes and graphical styles that never seem to get any exposure.
To be fair, marketing an indie game is not easy, there is honestly a lot of luck involved. But something like posting to relevant reddit subs (let’s be real, for all the efforts of regular posters/curators, the Threadiverse lacks real scale), emailing at least ~100 small to medium sized content creators with a very well thought out email is a must.

Games@lemmy.world•Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 | Review ThreadEnglish
31·7 days agoThe combat was honestly subpar (especially guns), but the quest design, character design, conversation and skill/clan system was super well done (I would argue these are critical elements for gameplay).

Games@lemmy.world•Project Rebearth (in development), an MMO city-builder, with a top-down map style view, where players repopulate a 1:1 replica of Earth, releases a demo on Steam.English
1·7 days agoBut those 81 cities take up a tiny portion of global land area.
A quick Excel import of the table from Wikipedia suggests that the “urban area” for those 81 cities is 190 K KM(2).
Total land mass on early 148.94 M KM(2).
So the world land could hold ~63,400 such cities.
It would likely take many years to build a city like Guadalajara (#81 on the wikipedia list).

Space Games@piefed.world•Deep colony sim Stardeus adds a huge new narrative-focused updateEnglish
5·7 days agoI recommend checking this game out of your are bored of RimWorld. You get to build your own spaceship and travel around planets and systems. Even though it’s in EA, it’s a very playable experience.

Games@lemmy.world•Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 | Review ThreadEnglish
71·7 days agoSo basically it has little to do with the original VTMB and what made it great (other than the brand name).
They should have just made a random vampire adventure game.
I think The Chinese Room makes solid games, but they have zero experience in immersive, complex RPGs.

Too bad the demo is so bare bones.
