NowGamer: "Firaxis might not be an obvious choice to ask about next-gen, but considering the PC-focused developer released XCOM: Enemy Unknown on consoles last year it could well be working on a next-gen game too."
"The German-Austrian-based indie games publisher Toplitz Productions and indie games developer Game Island, are today super happy and excited to announce that they have just kicked-off an playtest period for their first-person survival/adventure game “Serum“ (the said playtest is live right now for PC via Steam)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
"The Watford-based /(the UK) indie games publisher Wired Productions and Shanghai-based (China) indie games developer POLLARD STUDIO, are today very happy and excited to announce that their psychological thriller "Karma: The Dark World", is now currently in development for PC (as announced during the Wired Direct 2024 live event)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
The developer of Garry's Mod has announced it is in the process of removing all Nintendo-related content from Steam Workshop after receiving a takedown request from Nintendo.
i hope so bcoz this gen consoles really held pc gaming backwards
thats cool and everything, but that doesnt mean the majority of devs are going to push themselves to push powerful hardware when it costs time and money.
Some will, not all.
Since when does releasing a console automatically upgrade most PC gamers to that minimum spec?
I'm not seeing how this gen is any different frim the last, in that regard.
It's not like I'm starved for games. I still enjoy games made back in 2007 (Crysis 1, Witcher 1) and it's definitely not like I can't play one game for at least 200 hours and still not enjoy it. Heck: I still play Left 4 Dead 2 to this day because there are so many ways to play it.
Remember back then when we would play the fuck out of FF games? The Speed-runs, the no-upgrade runs, the basic-weapons only runs? People were really creative about their games: now the current-gen kids want everything fed to them.
pc gaming holds it self back. so tired of hearing otherwise. ITs near impossible for any dev to optimize for the millions of different configurations out there. If anything consoles show PC what can be done with much much less and for a longer period of time.
