    News Bungie acknowledge high interest in a Destiny 1 remake or classic version

    It’s because the D1 got a permanent price drop to like $20 last week and the ps5 pro improves image quality etc.. PC players don’t have D1. So there’s been some chatter. The story is totally blown out of proportion. It was just a post on X from community manager dmg saying he’d “pass along...

    Discussion IGN 4-year report card for PS5 and other console. Welcome to garbageland

    IGN has lost all credibility with how they revisited their Dragon Age review. Absolutely disgraceful. The clock is ticking tho… not sure they will survive even while buying up other (worthless) outlets. Gamers are tired of the fake Goty posturing seen with Deathloop, Alan wake 2, and now...

    Playstation | OT | PlayStation 5 Pro: 45% Faster, Released November 7

    Warhammer may indeed run better in performance mode. Didn’t notice much slowdown as I remember at all. Took it into co-op figured it would be the most stress on it. Quality mode is still 30fps and trash.

    Destiny was just the multiplatform version of their engine previous engine. They had a major update for better networking updates w/beyond light, etc… technically, it’s updated every year with a new version w/ various pieces being rebuilt at any time. Marathon will be sharing it so it’ll keep...

    I wasted my time looking into it. It’s not a “new engine.” They ported botw over to their switch engine (used in a bunch of games). At its core I wouldn’t be surprised if Botw was still built off Wind Waker. Each new release I often considered new engine for some devs even if it’s just the...

    And it didn’t need a “sequel” to accomplish any of this but still manages to improve and build on the gameplay in bigger strides forward than most boxed sequels accomplish. So yea, that’s kinda the point. Much of what players expect from sequels are now done without needing a new game...

    When you have stuff like Iceborne that pulls in thousands of hours for players with new content. Yeah man, most sequels rehash so much that expansions and dlc content (semantics - same shit) shouldn’t be discredited when often huge overhauls are made that represent bigger leaps you see from...

    Why do you assume a new story wouldn’t just continue after the events of the first game? Why would it break the original content? Underworld and skyzone could’ve been built still. They still used the same hyrule map. The narrative serves the game ideas. None of that matters especially for...

    New content and new areas and more major sweeping gameplay overhauls that most games don’t see in sequels year over year. In the 5 years it took to make totk how much was added and rebuilt in d2? Everything? Most sequels are in fact rehashes and when Totk repurposes the first game entirely...

    With modern technology and service aspirations? Yes, many sequels can now easily be done as dlc content if a dev chooses to do such. Like what are you saying? Each new Destiny expansion is a new area, a new campaign, with new game mechanics if not complete overhauls to gameplay and...

    The way from gates dlc content in the middle of an active run that you can miss is … annoying. Did old hunters on NG+ run. Wukong should win Goty with Helldivers 2 as runner-up. The rest doesn’t come close tbh. Easily the two biggest releasss of the year (outside of pal world).

    Play more games. You describing every online game that does more major sweeping changes to their game in a year than Zelda did with a copy annd paste rehash over 5 years of development. Then again I notice you have to asterisk the debate with “single-player games.” Totk could have easily...

    You should look that up. Lmfao. But thanks for more comedy and Nintenyearold copium. Botw ported to latest version of Nintendo’s switch engine. You can pretend that they engineered something brand new for it but that’s a lie. Wait till you realize most developers consider each new cut of...

    News Bungie acknowledge high interest in a Destiny 1 remake or classic version

    Only Wrath of the Machine hasn’t been remastered. You can still play D1 so native port for consoles and pc would be neat but … I wouldn’t play it. Novelty at best. Old campaigns should be remastered in some director’s cut version and parsed out of the live game as separate downloads. But...

    Plenty of expansions add and continue or create new stories. Plenty of expansions have way bigger sweeping evolutions to gameplay, which Totk had not much of unless you consider a trash loot system like fuse. Nintendo gets away with lack of criticism because it’s Nintendo and can literally...
