That expansion sounds like a complete mess they're desperately trying to wrangle into a shippable state. Which would be a welcome change for anything Paradox these days.

Quoting: pbThat's very nice of them indeed.

If you're modding Bethesda games this is yet another case of the opposite of nice...

"Playable" means "be prepared for 20fps with dips into the teens", if we're talking Steam Deck. Last I checked, at least.

Quoting: WorMzyPersonally I just don't reward these games companies with my hard earned money in the first place, but putting their practices through the legal process and (hopefully) having their shady practices declared illegal in one or more countries is something I can get behind.

Quoting: pbI don't know him, but since he's a Scot, I really hope the EU will pick it up and do what they do best.

[edit] oops, forgot that the UK removed Scotland from the EU. Well, I still hope the above.

I'm pretty sure Ross is from the US. :tongue:

Currently based in Poland.

We don't deserve Ross, but we need him.

BG3 is the only game in years that I started playing (with the intent to finish it) at release. Usually, I wait on expansions, the inevitable complete edition a year or two down the line. It's a nice feeling that it's pretty much done as is.

Ksudyu.

But in Japanese, or something.

2D versions of 3 & 4 would basically be new games, though. Those don't come cheap.

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualThis is the first time I've heard of this game, but it looks quite cool. I'm famously bad at point-and-click adventures, but it looks good. When it comes out on GOG, I might buy it.

Very interesting usage of LLM tooling. I wonder what the benefits are; it almost seems more costly and more work to do it the way they're doing it.

It will have full Linux support too, as confirmed by the developer.

We'll see.

Previously, Previously, Previously, ...

None of your Previouslys are games from this company. All Revolution's games published / remastered since 2010 have had Linux support. Two of them even had Kickstarters.

Beyond a Steel Sky
Broken Sword 5 - The Serpent's Curse
Broken Sword: Director's Cut (which is the one being remastered here)
Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror (the remaster)

Didn't Cecil say they're not doing the DC stuff for the remaster? It'd be a remaster of the original if that's still the plan. Which is the better idea, to be honest.

Quoting: EhvisAnd maybe it's just me, but seeing upscaling mentioned as a feature is a big negative in my eyes.

That sentiment might have merit, but it could also be true that the marketing division felt like those are the current buzzwords for PC gaming. I’m just speculating, though.

I think this might be an indicator that we need to lower our expectations for next gen. As in, 4k60 for a PS6 will likely mean upscaling tech as well if we factor in increased fidelity etc. Probably not a very stable upscaled 4k60, either.

I think there's a very good reason why that's becoming a buzzword: 4k is just a huge jump for a AAA production, so if devs can avoid native they probably will.

Quoting: maddovrAmazing news and everything, but dear Sony, we want Bloodborne.

Wasn't there a recent comment from Miyazaki saying doing anything with Bloodborne requires FromSoft cooperating with Sony? That, and the recent Elden Ring buyout from Namco seems to strongly suggest that FromSoft simply wants to focus on a property they have more (as of now: exclusive) ownership over.
