Is the expensive desire for realistic graphics the reason there's so much cut content sold as DLC and transaction and why games aren't always that great anymore?

>It Ain't Sheev starts playing

Yes.

next question.
>>
No, the reason for those things is that people buy it anyway and they make more money
They aim for realistic graphics because it's easy to market and it also lets them make more money

Why are people so retarded when it comes to the marketboard? Do they not want money or something?

That's just how it works in Vidya games man, because you can't guarantee the quality of a product considering they are all identical, the only edge you can get is to make it cheaper.

If a game is released and is fairly good, but didn't live up to it's hype, does that make it a bad game?

It's a Liam starts to directly insult the "evil" United States and then talk about the superiority and progressiveness of Canadians as the autistic YouTube comment fan base is either oblivious to the fact that they are being insulted, or straight up agree with him like the cucks they are, due to not having any friends in real life

Liam and Wollie were mistakes

TBFP is a shell of its former self. I still watch it, but compared to the angry Pat/oblivious Matt dynamic they used to have its complete dogshit.

Akiko will never be featured for half an hour 2 days in a row at E3 again, there is nothing to be excited about now.

Are you going to buy it again?

Does /v/ play any open source games?
12 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
there is no decent open source game

well, maybe wesnoth but the only worth mention are the oldies that got open sourced (old quake, old doom, Comand and Conquer Classics, XCOM classic, etc)

I still cannot understand how an open source software and OS can get popular but an open source game cannot

maybe because a game deprecates too fast to be able to get any profit (if you make it open source)
>>
>>337130526
>(old quake, old doom, Comand and Conquer Classics, XCOM classic, etc)
Can those even be considered OS? I mean, sure the "EXE" is, but the rest of the entire game is still "closed" isn't it.

>I still cannot understand how an open source software and OS can get popular but an open source game cannot
My take is when writing software you only need to program, whereas you'd need a few different trades/talents/skills for a complete decent game, unless you opt out of the whole "resources" thing and focus entirely on gameplay with crude everything else.
Like Nethack.

Sadly that is true, all open source games look like they were made in 90s or before.

ID Tech engines were open sourced when next iteration came out. Latest is 4, but due to Bethesda being fuckheads, 5 probably won't be open sourced when Doom 4 with ID Tech 6 comes out.
C&C classics and XCOM went freeware, but were not open sourced AFAIK. There are however open source engine reimplementations for them (OpenRA and OpenXCOM)
probably because one is a tool and one is piece of entertainment.
And there are not many open source game developers. And not many tools to use for that.
Best open source game engine I could find is Godot Engine, which seems like it has a long long way to go.
I am really fucking glad that Epic Games are truly epic and made Unreal Engine 4 almost-open-source (two registrations / EULAs away of being open source to be precise).

Overwatch is boring as fuck after a few hours. It's like the beta was out just long enough for me to lose interest in it.

Who else already back to playing superior class based FPS pic related?

i was back to it already after 3-4 rounds.
Overwatch is shallow, very simple and boring.

i'm afraid i'd be just tired of siege too because you gotta wait for the end of the round after getting killed like counter strike, i'll just wait for a free weekend or something to see

yes. It's going to be a gimmic for one pokemon but it's going to be there. It's just another version of cosplay pikachu in term of mechanism after all

Pretty much, they sure as hell won't be making several models for each mon. It'll be several versions of one like Furfrou or something.

Color Splash has the potential to be half-decent. I'm holding out for more information.

Not interested in the slightest for FedForce, though.

>Pokemon Sun And Moon

We did it again Sonybros :^)

>After putting in 15 hours of research and testing—in addition to hundreds of hours gaming on controllers in years past—and enlisting the help of an experienced panel of gamers, we found that the Sony DualShock 4 Wireless Controller (yes, the one that comes with the PlayStation 4) is the best gaming controller to use with your computer. In fact, we concluded that all the best PC controllers are console controllers. But a gaming controller is a highly personal object, and your preferences may differ based on your hand size, gaming style, and operating system. If you already own a controller that you love, you probably don’t need to buy a new one.

Well at least they're expecting the backlash from countless pissed off fanboys. That or they're covering their asses and haven't tested shit and just went with whomever offered them the best kickback.

Is super sampling the best anti aliasing method? Can't really think of anything that gets rid of jaggies like SSAA does aside from pixel softening on CRTs.
24 posts and 6 images submitted.

>>337128554
Yes, and its also the most expensive.
>>
It's the best if you have a really good PC.
It's literally just making the game a higher resolution, which takes vastly more computing power than other anti-aliasing algorithms.

Isn't combinations of high amounts, like at least x8 going all the way up to x32, of MSAA and CSAA used at the same time more taxing on performance?

Battleborn is a total flop and they need to recover that money somehow.
