i should be gripping rat


it barely resembles the original. It’s an extraction shooter, a la Hunt: Showdown or Escape from Tarkov.


it’s usually just cosmetics though, right?


MP4? yeah, it’s out on the 4th


So this game is landing with a solid Metacritic, but it seems like this is coming from all the blogspam AI-gen sites being overly generous with their scores. Some of the more reliable sites (VGC, Eurogamer) are landing more in a 3-star range. Seems like critics are very split over how to receive this game.


Gotta get on a private tracker, bud. They are real quick on it.


did you supply an FAQ for your comment? wow, incredible 


If no one is buying new games, that is bad for Sony and bad for the industry. Part of Sony’s business model is built around the revenue from digital game sales and PS plus memberships. You ain’t makin money from those if no one is using the consoles they bought.


it feels like it’s winning, but it doesn’t feel as successful as the numbers show it is. Everyone has a PS5 but a lot of them are collecting dust already.


I think the point of this article is the new ain’t coming any time soon. I think now is not a bad time to invest in a refurbished Steam Deck!


so glad to help u find a cool new game!


i think they mean more in terms of relative performance, so that “Steam Machine Verified” also means “Steam Deck 2 verified”. But I guess from a dev perspective, that is not exactly a “single target”, as diff hw means diff optimizations are required.


hell yeah. thx 4 sharing!


Whatchu gaming on now, then? SteamOS? Bazzite? Some other Linux distro? And what kind of perf are you getting?


yeahhhh and I mean, there’s no rule about it so it’s not like you’re in trouble or anything, this is just a thing I care about. I like to see big threads with lots of comments and lively discussion! If this was reddit it wouldn’t matter, the upvotes would sort it out or both threads would just coexist and it would be fine. In this smaller community, two people posting the same story from diff sources at the same time can lead to both comment threads being relatively dead. I will call this out in comments bc of my own personal goal of seeing consolidated threads. My hope is folks will double-check before posting in the future. In this case, I think the other post blew up before you posted, so it just means that this comment section will be sorta dead. Glad you cross-posted to the other gaming communities!


Not be that guy, but someone already beat you to the punch on posting this news: https://beehaw.org/post/23165121


so you didn’t read the article at all, huh?


next generation I’m gonna get rid of my Xbox


If you don’t want to play mainstream multiplayer games, it should be pretty painless for you! Obviously we don’t know yet what Valve will reveal, but if they announce a new “Steam Machine” that is basically a Steam Deck in desktop form, it should be pretty smooth! I hear there are some games that require some Linux finagling, but everything has guides online.


Sometimes you are in the cult of a cult classic, and so that game feels like one of the best ever. I will still come out and say the same about my old faves, like Guild Wars 1 or Phantom Dust. I exaggerate to express how good I think these games were!
They should probably add Harada as a DLC final boss
