    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Of all the reasons I'm interested in integration of LLMs like ChatGPT in games, I think being able to tell NPCs to get fucked is pretty high up there.

    Too many WoW versions? Introducing Federation Services

    Why stop there? Make it multi-game. I'd love to bring my Dragonborn from Baldur's Gate 3 into World of Warcraft!

    Everquest 3 - 2028?

    An MMO built around the concept of a party RPGs would be interesting, if a bit of a limited market. You could focus on different levels of control: * Controlling each character individually, aka alt-tab boxing * Relying on /follow type mechanics and using something like key broadcasting...

    I think the most valuable parts of EQ's lore have to do with memorable zones, NPCs, items and quests. yep

    There's only four companions with depth. Sam, Andreja, Sarah and Barret.

    Everquest 3 - 2028?

    Probably not. From now till 2028 I think you'll see more and more Skyrim mods and a few proofs of concept doing LLM->Content stuff. The hard part is generating content in a usable format and integrating it. https://gamerant.com/skyrim-quests-chatgpt-ai/

    So much about the Starfield setting doesn't make much sense.

    Home buying thread

    My city gets a huge chunk of its revenue from property taxes, most of which are primary living properties. How would you want them to replace those funds?

    Investing General Discussion

    Thanks for posting that, it's something I've been wondering for a while. After saving for what feels like my entire life I bought my first house a few years ago. It's something like 3100sqft with a full finished basement. 3.5 baths. Backs up to a wooded area. Even four years later it still...

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    I'd only be interested in another The Office if it was produced in a non-western country. Like South Korea or Nigeria.

    Everquest 3 - 2028?

    I've played all the Dark Souls and Elden Ring but I don't really know what this means. I can imagine an MMO where... * Players leave a corpse on death with XP / gold / whatever they can recover * Players can feasibly clear the game at level 1 if their skill is high enough, while increasing in...

    I think it just goes back to the difficulty of writing Voltron content in a book that starts with cripple fights. Every long-lived progression fantasy series is going to have to deal with the same thing and either you just make equal power levels cancel each other out (Or you just ignore the...

    Dwarf Fortress

    I tried to find a list of racial slurs used by dwarves in different fantasy settings and all I could find is articles telling me that racism against dwarves is wrong.

    Dwarf Fortress

    I kind of enjoy how this game doesn't have an apparent tech tree to climb. "What workshop do you want to build??? There are 50 choices!!! Great, we can build that Armorsmith. You can't do shit with it, are you a sky-loving moron??"

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    It's the classic problem of open RPGs where you want to have these massive structures, but don't want to have the massive expanse of farmlands to support it. I wouldn't have had a problem if they did it Mass Effect 1 style and just said, "Akila is fucking huge. Here's 4 zones you can go to to...

    This thread has inspired me to look up Taylor Swift (Who I know almost nothing about) songs for the first time in my life. Thank you everyone who contributed.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    What's funny is one of the loading screens says something like, "If you're in a system with an outpost farming HE-3, you'll have extended range on your spaceship!" like that's a perk of a system that might or might not be in the game.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Nah fuck the ground vehicles. Those would be Mako-levels of fun on some planets but terrible on most planets. There's a ship mechanic in the game, use it, idc how silly or unperformant it is.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I don't even really want seamless planet/ground flight. I'd rather have fast travel. What I do want is a mechanic where you can buzz around the surface at something like 5x+ runspeed, and be able to land in arbitrary locations. I'm hoping in a couple of years or so there will be: Ground flight...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I think I'm putting Starfield on hold for now. I didn't see everything the game has to offer but want to "save it" for when patches and mods improve the game dramatically over the next couple of years. Virtually every feature in Starfield can be fleshed out and improved, turning into the massive...

    Morons. https://blog.unity.com/news/open-letter-on-runtime-fee I like how they made the guy who probably had nothing to do with the pricing changes and is popular in the community come out and apologize for the company.
