Hasbro is developing a D&D game, inspired by success of Baldur's Gate 3
killamch89 and one other reacted to Kane99 for a topic
Hasbro’s head of game studios, Dan Ayoub was recently interviewed where he stated that there is a really cool D&D game in the works, and it's inspired by what Baldur's Gate 3 was able to do. In turn they want to make their next D&D follow what Baldur's Gate 3 did right. The genre seemed to get better with the release of Baldur's Gate and Hasbro wants to continue to capitalize on the genre. And I'm sure fans of D&D would love to have more games in like with the quality Baldur's Gate put out there. Source - https://exputer.com/news/games/hasbro-game-baldurs-gate-3-footsteps/2 points -
Resistance Series ever making a comeback?
Lamarr the strelok and one other reacted to Kane99 for a topic
The Resistance series was a huge IP for Sony back in the PS3, PSP and PS Vita eras, but fans haven't seen anything new in the series since 2012's Resistance: Burning Skies which released on the PS Vita. But, there hasn't been a main console exclusive since Resistance 3 back in 2011. Do you think we're due for a sequel or a reboot maybe? Maybe they will remaster the series or remake them, that seems to be a big thing with studios lately. Anyway, what would you like to see the Resistance series go? Will it ever come back?2 points -

I just want to see them keep physical media alive. I know that's asking far too much for today's generations, but the collector in me hates that we're going to lose physical games very soon. I know most of them are essentially just serving as keys to download the rest of the game, but there's something about owning a physical copy of a game that makes it feel more certain. I own this, it's mine, it's right here. Digital games can be gone in the blink of an eye. It's entirely improbable that physical media continues for another generation, but it's the one thing I hope for.2 points

Day one console purchase or wait for the 'rehash'?
killamch89 reacted to HowHammerYou for a topic
I never buy consoles day one, I usually wait a year or two for them to iron out the hardware/software bugs that inevitably occur with a new console launch. Also, neither of the last two console generations had any games at launch that I wanted to play, and there's no sense in buying a console if there's nothing worth playing on it. That said, my new strategy is to skip a generation and wait for the next one. Game development cycles are getting so long that most of the big series are skipping a generation anyhow. I'm fairly certain that Fallout 5, Elder Scrolls 6, Final Fantasy VII Part 3, Red Dead Redemption 3, Elden Ring 2, Horizon 3, and other games of that caliber are going to be launch titles for the PS6 and Xbox Y. I might pick up a cheap used PS5 to play Dragon's Dogma 2, but that's a big maybe as there's only 3-4 games on the console that I want.1 point -
Cost effectively? I would just emulate it if you can. It's an okay game. I would definitely like a re-release of it but I don't see that happening to be honest.1 point

Living Alone/With People
killamch89 reacted to The Blackangel for a topic
Heavily prefer alone. I've had roommates in the past, and hated it. No privacy, no personal space, and having to listen to everyone watching TV or talking when you're trying to sleep. So if given the option, I wouldn't hesitate to go it alone.1 point -
Felix the Cat (NES & Gameboy versions) coming to Switch, PS4 & PS5 March 28th
killamch89 reacted to Shagger for a topic
A game based of Felix the Cat? That very early cartoon from the 1920's? Releasing a game based of Felix the Cat makes even less sence now than it did in the 80's. At least there was a movie that came out around that time. It was crap, but at least it existed. Seriously, who asked for this? The permice of Felix the Cat is that Felix has a magic bag he can morph into anything he wants. That's a cool concept for a video game, it really is. If one wanted to make a video game based off that, why not make something new? Use the modern tools and modern know-how how to help this concept reach it's full potential? Think about that, think about how the game hasn't seen any noticeable enhancements and think about that ridiculous price and you will probably come to the same conclusion I did. This is a lazy cash grab. Some lazy ass hat has somehow acquired this IP and seeks to make a quick and easy quid out of it. It does look like decent game for it's time, but it obviously hasn't been remebered otherwise more people would know about it. If it had no impact then, there is no reason to expect it to have an impact now. This just isn't worth even the low effort that has been out into it.1 point -
If you want to permanently make the horse yours, all you have to do is put your saddle on it after you break it. That instantly puts you at level 1 bonding with the horse, which makes it as much yours as any horse you would get at the stables. When I go for an Arabian, as soon as I break the horse, I put my saddle on it. That way if it does throw me due to a predator I don't lose it forever, I can just call it, and it will come running back to me. At the moment, I have 3 horses. The white Arabian, the red chestnut Arabian, and the perlino Andalusian. In case you're wondering what the hell perlino is, here's a pic of a perlino Andalusian.1 point

PlayStation Handheld, Would it Work?
The Blackangel reacted to Dismal_Bliss for a topic
This is a tough question. I like the concept of the new PS Portal, delivering the PS5 experience on a handheld device, albeit streaming from the main unit. I would not be interested in a handheld that delivered a subpar experience. It has to be at least on par with the Switch, now that Nintendo raised the bar.1 point -
Ever inspired to try new things/experiences because of a video game?
killamch89 reacted to Kane99 for a topic
I know it may sound weird, but have you ever been inspired to try new things or experiences because of a video game? Maybe it was a mission that featured a location you'd like to travel to one day, or maybe maybe the game introduced you to certain things like foods, drinks, and even cultures. Maybe a game inspired you to ask questions about the world. Is there any games that have inspired you in such a way? There has to be people who are inspired to try out new things because of a video game. I'm sure it happens with movies, tv, books, etc. I suppose you could say for me, traveling to certain locations would be something I could one day see myself doing. Like in Hitman for example, with the level in Sapienza. I'd love to visit a place like that one day. I've never been one for traveling, but that game made it look like a place I should see. And I do need to get out of my comfort zone anyway.1 point -
Do you consider yourself wasting too much time and money on games?

How much time are you playing games on your smartphone?
killamch89 reacted to Kennysplash for a topic
I mostly play games on my phone when I am outside. It’s always console when I am home. So since I am on the move I barely spend half an hour playing games on my smartphone a day. I only use it to pass away time when I’m waiting on someone or something.1 point -

Nintendo's Next Console Is Reportedly Arriving in 2025

Will we see any new inFamous games soon?
killamch89 reacted to Dismal_Bliss for a topic
I would hope so. PS4 was my first time dipping my toes into the world of PlayStation and I played Infamous: New Light first, and THEN it was that I played Infamous: Second Son. Both of these games were fantastic and I would absolutely love another.1 point -
Last Game Played
killamch89 reacted to Dismal_Bliss for a topic
I finished FF16. Amazing game. Amazing story. I wasn't satisfied with the ending though. I was a completionist with this one so there is literally nothing left for me to do except start it over with New Game+ which I guess is harder the 2nd time around. But I have shelved it for now in favor of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (part 2) which is absolutely fantastic!1 point -

Reality vs Adventure reacted to killamch89 for a topic
Ubisoft have the cloud streaming rights to Call Of Duty for the next 15 years. I didn't even remember this happened - I'm not sure what Microsoft gains from this deal either. Maybe they plan to acquire Ubisoft in the near future and this is just a way to start the process.1 point -
What was your favourite TV show as a kid?
killamch89 reacted to Ravenfreak for a topic
For live action shows my favorites were Tales From the Crypt, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Malcolm in the Middle, and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

All Adult Swim games will be removed from video game storefronts by May
killamch89 reacted to Ravenfreak for a topic
I'm hoping people will start to back these up on the Internet Archive then. This is another example of why digital only for the future is not the way to go, eventually no one will be able to legally obtain these games in the future unless you happened to buy them while they were still available to purchase. I never played any of these Adult Swim titles, but it's still a shame to see games being delisted.1 point -
Paranormal Activity video game coming in 2026
killamch89 reacted to Ravenfreak for a topic
I loved the movies and will be checking this game when it comes out. I've always been a fan of paranormal movies, and thought the movies did a pretty good job of depicting a haunting. (I believe in ghosts but that's for a different thread.) I'll have to tell my wife about this since she loved those movies too. Her and my mother in law tagged along with me when the first one came out and they freaked out but it didn't scare me lol. The game on the other hand will probably freak me out more.1 point -
PS5 Pro Might Feature AI Upscaling, AMD Hints
killamch89 reacted to HowHammerYou for a topic
Upscaling is about the only thing I will tolerate AI doing. I'm almost completely opposed to AI, because it's a replacement for the human mind and eventually humanity in general. I'm reminded of a quote from The Matrix, "This was the peak of your civilization. I say your civilization because as soon as we began making your decisions for you, it became our civilization." But whatever, just as long as they don't allow it to learn outside its programming. I was planning to buy a PS5 Pro this year, but Sony recently made a very strange statement regarding the PS5. They said it was in the latter part of its life cycle already. Now the PS5 is just over 3 years old, so if it's already past the halfway point, that would indicate the PS6 releasing in 2026 instead of the previously rumored 2028 release. So why would I buy a new console now if they're just going to release another one in roughly 2 years? Plus I'm certain that the PS6 will be getting all of the PS5 games as (possibly 8K) remasters. I guess I'll be playing Elden Ring Complete Edition Remastered and Demon's Souls Remake Remastered on the PS6.🤣 Really, Sony's statement about the PS5 reminds me of when the president of SEGA said, "The Sega Saturn isn't our future." and killed interest in that console.1 point -
Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection revealed, coming March 14th

I'm going to wait until it's released but I'm also excited for this. I remembered the original Battlefront games on PS2 - I loved them and the fact that I'll get to replay these games again brings back great memories. I just hope EA doesn't screw this up somehow.1 point -
What's your most anticipated video games of 2024?
The Blackangel reacted to killamch89 for a topic

Gravity Rush 2 Remaster coming to PS5 and PC?
Reality vs Adventure reacted to Shagger for a topic
No kidding Sony, thank you. Assuming it is true, and it had better be. One of my favourite games on the PS4 with the original being one of, if not the best game on the PS Vita. Unique mechanics, unique style and presentation and surprisingly strong and entertaining story. I absolutely love this franchise. So suffice to say, I'm very up for this remaster and this movie, especially since I had resigned to the unfortunate fate that this franchise was dead and actually thought Sony had lost all care for this IP. They dropped support for Gravity Rush 2's online component after only a year and there has been no buzz on the IP since, until now. OK, so it's not a brand new Gravity Rush game, but I'll take this. Listen PC and PS5 players, buy this game. We're getting a second chance to show a criminally underrated game some much deserved love.1 point -
Any fun things you can do with an old smart phone?
killamch89 reacted to Ravenfreak for a topic
If you're interested in emulation and want a way to play games on your phone, you could look into adding emulators. If it's a iPhone, you'll have to jailbreak it but if it's Android as long as you've got it connected to the internet to get the emulators and games you'll be fine to play it wherever and don't have to worry about being online.1 point -
Do you have any favorite game developer?
killamch89 reacted to Reality vs Adventure for a topic
At this point, I also agree with you there. Game developers have a bad reputation when it comes to the way they treat employees. Ubisoft may be my favorite game developer, but their leadership needs a change for the betterment of employees. Ubisoft does have labor unions so I expect there are things in place to protect employees, so as a conscious consumer, to me that isn't grounds to boycott them. They have the tools needed to aid employees. Sounds shallow on my part, but if their union isn't protecting them, they should go on strike or vote for a new one that will. If they get oppressed at that point by the union and the company, then that's when consumers may be the answer to boycott. I don't know what all has happened there the past couple years so I don't know if things got better or not. If a developer had rampant abuse against employees without a labor union, then they may need some intervention to help them.1 point -

It's a true showing of just how sad the gaming industry is that I can swap out the word "Ubisoft" with just about any major player in the games industry and that statement would still make sense. I could even add a section on sexual harassment and employee abuse and it would still work.1 point -
Forgotten horror games that deserve remakes or reboots
killamch89 reacted to HowHammerYou for a topic
A forgotten horror game from an otherwise very popular horror series: Resident Evil Code: Veronica X. It's so forgotten that Capcom forgot to release it physically when they ported their old RE games to PS4 and Xbox One. It was the only RE game remaster to be released digital-only. It's probably my favorite or second favorite game in the series, and I really hope it winds up being Capcom's next remake.1 point -

RDR2 It's as simple as that. I can't get away from the game. To be honest, I can't remember the last time I played anything else, let a lone what it even was.1 point -
I'm not surprised either. Microsoft seems to not really care about employees, but at the same time, buying Blizzard brought in a whole new payroll so I guess in a roundabout way I can understand why they did it. They didn't want to have to pay so many people for shit they were already doing. They just wanted the legal rights to the games that couldn't be challenged of withdrawn. They don't care about much of anything else.1 point

Totally agree, games these days are exactly like playing through a very long movie, as was said above, so it makes no sense to take the immersion out of the equation.

I already made my decision by buying a PS5 over everything else. I do have a decent gaming rig now though, but I got this back in April. I don't know anything about building a PC but honestly building your own PC is probably the best thing to do if you have the money and time. Not only will you be able to run the latest games, you can play a bunch of old games too via emulation if you're interested in that.1 point -
Cult following games?
killamch89 reacted to The Blackangel for a topic
The first one that comes to mind for me, is the Red Dead franchise. That includes all 3 games. The fan base is extremely loyal. Trust me on that one. But there are those that look specifically for fan made games. For example I have three. The Legend Of Zelda Ancient Stone Tablets The Legend Of Zelda Goddess Of Wisdom The Legend Of Zelda Parallel Worlds While a lot of people stick to those kind of games, I no longer play them. With Goddess Of Wisdom, after six years I had only made it to the third temple. The difficulty is beyond extreme to the point that trying to play it is just cruel. It was literally designed to not be beaten. But as @killamch89 pointed out, Zelda has a massive cult following. I have been playing the franchise since its inception, and have only abandoned 2 games that I can think of. Windwaker, and Twilight Princess. I refuse to play Windwaker simply due to the graphics. With TP, while it had beautiful graphics, it was just massively overdone. A very poor attempt at an open world Zelda. The Mario franchise has so damn many entries and it's not just a franchise anymore. It's a world that literally offers you pretty much anything you can think of. It has so many branches that even trees are saying it needs pruning. There are so damn many, that I wouldn't be willing to even try to list all the games. It's beyond massive.1 point
