- Comment on Routine - Official Release Window Trailer | gamescom 2025 1 day ago:
For those who don’t know (I didn’t), the first trailer for this game was released 12 years ago, way back in 2013:
What a curiosity. What happened for development to take this long?
- Comment on New article says #StarCitizen will release in 2027-2028, we contacted the author to ask for clarification on the source and he quoted Chris Roberts himself as saying "1 or 2 Y probably after S42" 3 days ago:
The other commenter, and Roberts in that quote, were talking about Squadron 42, which so far has failed to manifest itself outside of trailers. It’s original planned release window was in 2014, then delayed to 2020, and now 2026.
- Comment on Microsoft Still Can't Say How Much the ROG Xbox Ally X Will Cost Due to "Macro-Economic" Conditions, Despite Announcing Release Date and Availability Details(Leaked prices $549.99/$899 for Ally/Ally ) 6 days ago:
They rolled back the $80 increase when they noticed that people weren’t going to buy Outer Worlds 2 at that price point. They then confirmed that their games will stay at $70 for the foreseeable future (ie. until a bigger player normalized $80 games).

What is 99 days in the forest, for those of us who have never looked at a Roblox game?
- Comment on Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV - Official Announce Trailer 1 week ago:
The Games Workshop of 2025 is not the GW of… fucking corpse god, 2004. Modern day GW very much cares about their brand and the “synergy” with tabletop and the like.
GW has always been about chasing trends and synergy with new products. Xenos being ignored in favour of human armies has been a meme for as long as the game existed. And I remember DoW1 including flying units in the last expansion just because GW was pushing them in the tabletop.
Has it become even worse? Tbh I hate GW and I don’t keep up with their news.
- Comment on Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV - Official Announce Trailer 1 week ago:
With only 4 factions at launch, having both Space Marines and Mechanicus seems like a waste, tbh. I’d rather have more Xenos factions.

You could also donate directly to charities that operate in the territory, such as NovaUkraine, Razom For Ukraine and Remember Us. If you prefer more recognizable names, you could choose Doctors Without Borders, Save The Children, International Medical Corps and Project Hope.

- Comment on Any Xbox 360 can now be hacked in less than one minute 2 weeks ago:
You should re-read the discussion, because I’m pretty positive you didn’t even get the topic.
We are talking about being able to play pirated games and homebrew apps on the X360. Of course that doesn’t happen in the wild. Unless you think that I woke up one day with a modded PS1.

Quoting from the GitHub’s page:
The exploit is a race condition that requires precise timing and several other conditions to be met for it to trigger successfully. As such it can take a while for that to happen.
Which means that, sometimes, you run the code but it simply fails. When it happens, you can turn off the console and try again.

Uh. I never see thumbnails on my posts on either my app (Lemmy) or pc (either the standard lemmy site or Alexandrite). Maybe Voyager has a built-in functionality that allows it to fetch the thumbnails frok YT when they are missing in the post itself?
- Comment on Any Xbox 360 can now be hacked in less than one minute 2 weeks ago:
It’s not a dumb video and it’s not an edge case. It’s a great video that goes straight to the point, has timestamps, explains in detail how the exploit works and how consistently, and showcases it.
The exploit is BadUpdate v1.2, an evolution of the previously known BadUpdate, which was great as a proof of concept but not very useful in practice, as it required an average of 30 minutes to work, had a success rate of about 30%, and needed to be applied every time the console was rebooted (on a console with no sleep mode, may I add).
By comparison, as shown in the dumb video, the new version of BadUpdate works flawlessly in about a minute max, and has a far greater success rate of about 80%, according to the creator. It can be launched from a USB stick and requires no additional software or hardware modification to the console, and most importantly, works on all X360 and not just earlier editions.
If you’re too lazy to click on a link, fine, but I’d suggest at least not acting so confidently when saying things you know nothing about.

Tangentially related: how do I make YT thumbnails (or any thumbnail, for that matter) show on Lemmy posts?

Bold of you to assume they have a strategy at all.
- Comment on Aphelion | Reveal Trailer 2 weeks ago:
Damn, I love DONTNOD games and completely missed this reveal until now. The gameplay sequence at around 0:50 reminds me of the Jusant climbing gameplay which I particularly loved.
Pretty interested for this one - Despite the shortcomings inherent to their AA nature, DONTNOD games are always charming and full of interesting ideas.
- Comment on What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you? 3 weeks ago:
Resident Evil 2 Remake left me very disappointed. The moment-to-moment gameplay is good, great even! But the complete lack of soundtrack (despite the original game having a lot of iconic tracks), two thirds of the story being cut, and the characters just acting as imbeciles for half the screentime was upsetting. Worst offender was Leon leaving a man to die inside his cell because “I have to speak with the chief first”. Like, what? You don’t even know if the chief is alive, and even if he was, you don’t know where he is, and you don’t have the certainty that you can get back in one piece to free the poor guy from his jail. You really want to leave him like that at the mercy of whatever monster lurks inside?
Don’t get me started on 3 Remake.

For my European friends that want more precise measurements: it’s about the weight of ten 1-euro coins.
You’re welcome!
- Comment on Sacred 2 Remaster announced from THQ Nordic 3 weeks ago:
So strange remaking Sacred 2 when the first entry was by far the most appreciated (also the one that needs it the most, as playing it at modern screens resolution with stable fps is surprisingly difficult).
- Comment on PlayStation 6 Console And New PS6 Handheld ‘Canis’ Specs Leak, It’s Claimed - Insider Gaming 3 weeks ago:
I am. I grew up with the PS1 and I really liked the simplicity, ease of use, affordability and reliability of older gens, but the newer ones seem to have all the cons of consoles and none of the benefits.
- Comment on Nintendo sold almost 6 million Switch 2 units in less than a month 3 weeks ago:
Unsurprisingly. I remember some friends swearing that it would be DOA because of console/games prices and whatever.
I was like, if gamers were careful with their money, we wouldn’t have had horse armor nonsense for the past 20 years, lol.

Are we already talking about next gen leaks? Damn, this generation passed by and I barely noticed it.
- Comment on GOG and game publishers launch FreedomToBuy.games to raise awareness on censorship in gaming – GOG Pressroom 3 weeks ago:
I’ve never played a NSFW game and never will. I’m also, like, very much Ace, so, like, no chance in hell I’ll ever will. BUT I can’t resist the allure of free games! No matter what they are…
There’s also Postal 2 in there lol, that convinced me to click the Claim button.
I’ve already hidden the games from the library, so I’ll probably never see them again and forget they exist in about 6 months from now…

There’s got to be irony somewhere in Sony striking a deal with Palworld, then suing another company for copying the art of their game.

- Comment on RPGs that are optionally pacifist? 4 weeks ago:
It’s been a while and I’ve never tried a 100% pacifist run, but I think that it’s theoretically possible in Planescape: Torment (Steam, GoG).
- Comment on "Bringing your games to other platforms is how you’re going to win" - Circana 4 weeks ago:
The Switch 2 has not sold 20M units yet. They just hit 5M, and they’re projecting they’ll sell 15M by the end of the fiscal year, which is by March.
Whops, sorry about that. Didn’t mean to inflate it voluntarily. I remembered 3M from the first few days, then checked update sources, got numbers mixed up in my head and somehow came up with 20M. That’s surely a wild number lol
Thanks for catching that, would hate to spread disinfo like that.
