stop making single player games that have an always online component that prevent you from pausing
i work from home i need to be able to pause the game while im playing on company time
What about single player games that for no fucking reason at all whatsoever make you be online.
Yes I installed RedDeadRedemption2
ah ah, rdr2's got red dead online attached to it now, so it's no longer just "a single player game"
🤓 ☝
I think you can pirate an early version of the game without that
there's a pc port of rdr2 without rdo? interesting
i wonder if there's much change between that version and the current version in the main, singleplayer campaign
Counterpoint: make every game have optional co-op so I can play with my girlfriend.
Also get rid of competitive games, we don't need the toxicity.
Playing tomb raider 1 coop via openlara showed me a world where games can be fun with others without the need for coop to even be coherent or make sense. Idk why coop has to be some crappy separate mode or made to be logical just give me two main characters please, thanks.
tomb raider 1 coop via openlara
so did you have like 2 similar looking laras walking around? 🤔
2 Lara on two screens but in the same level. And player 2 lara can teleport to player 1 lara. Its loads of fun
Multiplayer was good before everything decided it had to be some kind of esports competitive shite. There was a time I could just join a server and have a romp and then leave.
Battlefield 1943 is the distilled representation of multiplayer before it was ruined. Small fun game where nobody talks to anyone else you just play.
This is why I will just continue to play TF2 24/7 Harvest community servers until I die. With the chat turned off and the killfeed names hidden, of course
The only IRL person I know that is into vidyagames mostly plays hentai games.
I love multiplayer, I hate having to coordinate random players to do activities, it's like wrangling cats
: playing modern multiplayer games on public servers with teenagers
: playing mwii on a private bot server that we modify actively with custom game modes; always playing as the sovietsDark Souls is the perfect basis for multiplayer. I like having strangers impact my game, I just don't want to talk to them. Glad to see elements of it in the new Mario!
You may be interested in Death Loop then. It's on Gamepass. It's an Arkane game and, while not super obvious, takes place in the world of Dishonored in the future. The whole thing focuses on replaying the same handful of levels and the main baddie can get controlled by people online. It's super fun playing the bad guy as well, trying to mess up the main character's run. Wonderful game that's just awesome in single player as well.
I like Arkane games a lot. Honestly been waiting until that one's cheap-cheap since I've heard it gets old after finishing it.
Didn't know about that player antagonist but
spoiler
Is that the character that turns out to be the protagonist's child from the future or whatever?
gets old after finishing it
Couldn't be more accurate. But absolutely loved it up until I was "done".
::: Yep, that's the one :::
playing digital versions of board games like root, everdell, or wingspan is also a great alternative to the all-pervasive shooter
Incorrect, please make more large scale co-op games for my friends and I to yell at each other in.
Would love some more quality couch co-op games. Both Diablo 4 and BG3 have been great for just having a couple of friends over and playing.
Just give me Fancy Guantlet
Stop making competitive pvp shooters, your ideas are crap and not original.
