It’s far more relevant information, as to the potential quality and value of a game, to know who is behind its creation, than to merely learn of its name and that perhaps it’s part of an established series. So, it’s unfortunate that more people are aware of, say, the upcoming Dead Space, Suicide Squad, and Silent Hill games, more than they understand who is making them (not the people who made Dead Space 1-3, it’s the next game by the Batman Arkham trilogy dev, and not the original Silent Hill series team, respectively; consider what that predicts moreso than any franchise association).
For those of us who do keep at least one foot in the gaming news world, you’re probably aware of what ID Software, Square Enix, or Hideo Kojima have been up to lately, or what they have planned for the future. But there are a good number of notable developers, both company and individual, whom have made some great games in the past, but haven’t really surfaced in the last few …
I’ve seen a similar thread in many other gaming subreddits, I thought it would be nice to get the PC gamer perspective.
I was most surprised with the Steam Deck. When it announced, I was reminded of Steam Boxes and Steam Link and I didn’t think it would take off like it did. Even for myself, it became my dominant platform to play PC games and it seems to be getting better and better with updates and even some developers including Deck-specific settings built into their games.
While I still really liked Stray, I kind of expected more for something so ridiculously hyped. For me, at least, it was an abstracted puzzle game, which is fine, but I hoped for more open-endedness and freedom to explore, especially considering you play as a cat. For most of the game, it felt like you were railroaded to objectives and nothing felt like you organically discovered anything. Still a good game, but disappointing to me personally for what it could have been.
Hello all. I was searching for some games to buy to try funny/cool mods and the posts I found was old. If you happen to know any games that support modding and have a big library of mods, old or new, I would like to check them out, so let me know:)
