viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 02/07/2025TBC according to the wording from Krafton they weren't axed, they left voluntarily despite attempts to keep them. Unclear why thats the case atm. 000 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 26/02/2025Its so painful that its the default roguelike progression mechanism. I just filter those out when deciding what demos to try at this point 000 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 26/02/2025I wasnt sure what to expect from Deliver At All Costs but it was a lot of fun! Very satisfying to just smash into everything and watch it crumble. Surprisingly compelling writing and voice acting as well, and the vibe was a fun parody of atomic era idealism 000 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 01/02/2025Im one of those that believe they can get there. Theres a strong, compelling foundation, but a lot like Helldivers 2 before its big difficulty redesign, the numbers just arent right. All the improvements so far have been in the right direction, and Im eager to see how the game evolves going forward 000 0

Reposted by @viggynash.bsky.socialV to the H to the A and a Junior @superpixels.bsky.social · 02/01/2025There’s an alarming trend of movies showing up with different music. Been happening for a while (e.g. Sixteen Candles), but now ever more egregious in the streaming and AI era. Gonna get worse, so covet those discs. 16936362 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Yeah, many f2p game mechanics are primarily in service of monetization and not player experience. In theory, I think any of those mechanics can be refactored to work in a non-f2p version using a DLC model or non-gameplay microtransactions for longer term support of a long form game 010 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Trackmania has maybe the best creator scene of any game. People have been cooking hard since TMNF in 2008. There are tons of community made custom blocks out there, and you can even import a map made entirely in a 3d modeling software. Incredibly vibrant scene. 020 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 20/12/2024I think aiming for a non-comp game is a good goal. We already have competitive Marvel Rivals, its called Overwatch. That said... the no role queue ever thing seems silly yo me. Instead of limiting the number og game modes, I think there should be more. Go silly with it 020 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 15/12/2024All the silly mascot creatures in Infinity Nikki so horribly racist to each other One of them also has police that beat up disabled people Random NPC in town said they were glad some people in the town over were in comas The tonal whiplash between the cozy gameplay and unginged writing is insane 000 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 14/12/2024The Exo Rally Championship demo is incredible. As a follow up to Exo One, I was not expecting a rally game with this much mechanical and vehicle tuning complexity. This is sim racer levels of technical, in a sci-fi rally game. And in a high hazard level stage, its a trully harrowing experience 000 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024* Dispatch - This is interesting for many reasons I think. 1) This is what a Telltale style game should have evolved to, but never did. 2) Insane voice cast. How is there a game with Jeffery Wright working alongside Joel Haver??? 3) Fascinating take on a superhero game. Grounded, but not gritty. 000 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024* Midnight Murder Club - So they made a multiplayer shooter... but you cant see anything? I trully dont see whats interesting about this pitch * Shadow Labyrinth - Evil pac-man metroidvania??? * Catly - This smells aggressively like gen AI metaverse slop, and their store page verbiage doesnt help 100 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024* Turok Origins - Turning Turok into a third person coop shooter an incredibly baffling idea for a reboot game * Okami Sequel - Huhh??? And directed by Kamiya??? Absolutely wild * Screamer - Continuing the theme of ancient game revivals. Im not familiar with the og, but this looks awesome 110 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024* Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet - The amount of branding from BIG brands is wild. Porsche spaceship with a Sony soundsystem, with the mc wearing Adidas shoes? Wtf? * Rematch - Rocket League esque soccer game from the Sifu devs? Wild swing no one could have expected 100 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024* Stage Fright - Overcooked devs doing a Hazelight style coop adventure is pretty surprising, and especially it being published by Hello Games.

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024* Elden Ring: Nightreign - Roguelike Elden Ring standalone???

Lets see if it works 100 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024The most interesting (to me) announcements from TGA. Not necessarily my favorite, but weird, left field announcements or that are interesting for non gameplay related reasons 101 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Even if they do, theyre still a few years out since there likely still several live service and "prestige" games in the pipeline with how long theyve been spending on their games 120 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Theres a lot of oredatory design in live service games. Some live service game studios even have psychologists on staff. Books are always one and done experiences, even if part of a series 000 0

viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 12/12/2024Chroma Zero. Its gonna be so slept on but also, going by the insanely long demo from a couple months ago, one of the coolest games of the year 010 0
viggynash.bsky.social @viggynash.bsky.social · 12/12/2024Baffled by this take. What would you want out of an Indy game then? If it was just 2 hours long, then just make a movie. There'd be no time for gameplay. When adapting something in a new medium, you have to use the strengths of the medium. Adaptation is translation, not just a copy 040 0
