  • To elaborate, atari went bankrupt ages ago, and it's just had the IP rights to various things chopped up and sold around many times since then. The amount atari exists is just to whatever extent the current owner wants to monetize the name.

  • It really depends on your personal tastes. Trackmania is an extremely solid racing game if competitive time trials is your thing, Mario + rabbids is a solid tactics game, brawlhalla is, at least in my opinion, the second best platform fighter on pc, and just dance has its place.

  • Of the ones on the list, the only ones I've played are pikmin 4, Mario Wonder, and fire emblem engage. They're all solid recommendations if you already knew you would like them as a result of their series.

  • If they intentionally made 3rd party controllers not function with their product, that's monopolistic behavior and should absolutely be stopped

    Fucking hardly. It's their shit, they can make it compatible with whatever they like.

  • I can't even fathom the amount of cope behind complaining that the man behind many of the most beloved series in gaming is just some old guy holding onto a job. Like, go create the next Mario if you're so dead set on taking miamotos job lol.

  • but Druckmann's take on "fun" was a valid one. A work of art can be engaging and emotionally impactful even if it isn't "fun",

    Nah. The opposite of a fun game is a boring, frustrating, and uninteresting one. I'm glad you brought it up, because Papers please is a perfect example of a game that isn't just neon colors and Mario kart style light hearted action, but is absolutely still a fun game. The gameplay is satisfying, flows well, and does a good job at integrating into what the game is trying to convey.

    And to that end, naughty dog absolutely nailed making sure their games aren't fun. I'm solidly with Reggie on this one. "If it's not fun, why bother"

  • It played like utter shit, and the story was just some c tier Netflix special garbage. Funny though how all the people who defend naughty dog just jump back to a single game released over a decade ago on ps3, and literally never anything else. Niel druckmann was right about one thing, and it's that he doesn't make fun games.
