It is absolutely adorable there are #Helldivers2 players who, with a straight face, thank the studio for creating a game without all the 'woke nonsense' and 'political crap.'

Absolutely adorable.

This woman figured out how to play games with her mind. #EldenRing, #Minecraft, you name it.

She’s a paychology graduate (the video isn’t more specific) who built a system to use an EEG device and translate her brain activity into game controls. Wild stuff, of course with a ton of potential for all kinds of things, especially accessibility.

Electromagnetic brain activity? You mean I haven’t taken ThE jAb but there are still magnets in my brain?? What do I do about this?!

TBC, dear reader. Yes I have had the jab. multiple times, in fact. And no I don’t mind this third hand I’ve grown. It’s actually quite…

is sending invite-only surveys with the pitch of "how can we improve the game?" Takes 5-10 minutes, check your email.

They offer 500 silver within 4 weeks of answering. Survey link is single-use only, don't share it.

Seems to be going to people who are not big names, streamers, etc. (or at least that is my friend's case). I have... let's say, 'more than hundreds' of hours in this game and do not have it.

Interesting idea, I'd love to hear about the results. 🤔

Just to check: Is there any way to deterministically make heavy ammo for yourself?

Like, do X = guaranteed heavy for you (whether or not also for others).

I know there are ways to guarantee it for others (Aeons, Cenotaph), and IIRC there used to be armor mods for this, right? Like 'finisher eats X of your super and makes heavy ammo for you/everyone.' But nothing now, right?

#Destiny2 Hey

Hey everyone

Remember when we didn't have the Appearance Customization screen?

Hey #Destiny2

Remember when it cost Glimmer to change mods?

  • #Sony announces more PS games coming to PC

  • Surely, important decision makers at Sony took note of #EldenRing’s incredible success

  • Ergo, it should LOGICALLY follow, that we will soon get 60fps #Bloodborne for PC… right?

RIGHT??

😫

@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

All the foot stomping over the #Xbox rumors turned out to be a total nothing burger yesterday. Here’s a 4-minute announcement, but TL;DW:

  • Four unnamed games coming to other consoles (older than a year, so no Starfield)
  • All Blizzard Activision games coming to GamePass starting with Diablo 4 in a little bit
  • Hint at new hardware by holidays 2024
  • aaand that’s it?

Xbox is not dissolving as a platform. Pretty weak announcement IMO. #Microsoft

TIL the foam in that new Foamstars game is not artificial. #SquareEnix created lore that the players are PRODUCING IT THEMSELVES

IT IS A BODILY FLUID

THAT THEY ARE FIRING ALL OVER THEIR ENEMIES

THEN SLIP AND SLIDING AROUND ON IT

I saw this pretty far into today’s TWVG: https://youtu.be/BVoVMz9XUrU?feature=shared #Foamstars

Hollow Knight's soundtrack (technically the Mantis Lords fight) in the style of Doom.

This one turned out pretty well. Skip to 7:57 if you just want to hear it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVbpVbjRpg4

#Destiny2 Have we talked about the fact that Osiris uses strand to prevent Mara from doing something irrational against Riven (quest step 38)

while still wearing Sunbracers?

@SuperSideshow I just can't understand a game where your weapon breaks after hitting two enemies and now you need to find and carry 35 copies of the same exact weapon. It isn't fun, it doesn't make for interesting combat, it's just useless tedium.

And there are a zillion games that have done the mechanic of "approach this encounter in a different way" in far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, better ways.

InfiniteHench, to Zelda
@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

Here's a rant that should get me kicked off a couple lists: Breath of the Wild #BotW is bad and its game designers should feel bad.

There is nothing - nothing - fun about your weapon breaking after looking at two enemies, and thus having to carry and farm 300 copies of the same weapon to avoid this problem.

There are far, far, far, far, far better ways to encourage different strategies and playstyles besides this boneheaded, shortsighted, bad, stupid, dumb, and terrible mechanic.

InfiniteHench, (edited )
@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

Enemies can have different shields. Different species. Different infinite things that encourage different weapons, strategies, approaches.

Bonus rant: It's already hard enough to source expensive ingredients and cook food just to heal ourselves in real life.

And you think this is a good idea in a VIDEO GAME.

Leave the industry. And never come back. Ever. Like even in your next life, do anything but video games.

@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

@collinsworth @stevestreza One more arguable pro, that is dear to me but I understand not everyone:
