In the final fantasy and Pokemon games I played when I was younger -and more recently Expedition 33-there wasn’t any movement. My team was standing static on the left and the enemy team was on the right. BG3 is the first turn based game I played where I can strategically move around a 3D environment.
I’m playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the first time right now. I’m not particularly a fan of turn-based games, but I’m digging there interpretation of the genre. I like how each character has a limited amount of movement per turn and the ability to navigate through the entire environment. I’m surprised more developers don’t use a similar model.
I have a feeling Bethesda’s executives ordered the development team to make it as un-controversial as possible. “I don’t give a damn if the game is terrible. You will lose your jobs if you compromise this merger.”
…the average worker in Africa would need to spend more than a year of wages to buy an Xbox or a PlayStation. Game consoles are in fact luxury goods, we just take them for granted.
Thanks for this. I just realized I was recently the victim of fraud. I need to be on the lookout for a class action lawsuit.
I’m a chemist. A quantum dot is a specific structure in which a specifically sized particle gives off a specific color. One element can be used to display multiple colors since the color is a result of the size of the particle. What they’re doing is equivalent to selling lamb meat that is made out of pork. Fraud.
Thanks for this invaluable insight into the epidemiology of horse girls.
I had the same opinion, but it changed after playing Doom (2016, Xbox One) and Doom Eternal (2020, Xbox Series X) back to back. The difference was dramatic.
I still believe we are reaching a point where Moore’s law is hitting a fundamental limit, but only time will tell how things will pan out. My guess is that consoles will need to get bigger to get better.
Increased demand translates to increased memory and ram production capacity?
I think the problem might sort itself out once the data centers are actually built. The impact from maintaining a data center is probably less than from actually building one.
In real life, she is probably a gay male accountant from Ohio. I feel like people in these situations go out of their way to create alternate identities.
