From the article:
While it was never a mere recreation, it expanded significantly over time. Nowadays, Turtle WoW differs from World of Warcraft with features like additional playable races, leveling zones, quests, endgame content, and transmogrification.
I think around the time Blizzard did their Season of Discovery for Classic WoW, I heard a lot of people talk about Turtle WoW and how they want something more like that (Classic+) and not just the old game anymore.
Looking forward to the next final update.
Here it's apparently done just through a credit card. Does this meet the standards for the German law, I never really looked this stuff up. Dunno if that's enough for the verification or if there are maybe some stipulations, especially with regard to the GDPR.
It would be great if Valve did something for German users though, so I finally gift my friends shitty porn games again.
There are similar projects for the old Doom releases, Doom: The Way We Remember It (also for Doom 2, TNT:Evilution and Plutonia), if you're interested in these kinds of mods.
Don't really agree with the main premise of this video. The solution to the open-world problems of Cyberpunk or any game really isn't just to remove the open-world. It's just a different game at that point.
We're just not at a point yet, where we can make realistic, detailed, open-world environments in games. There's gonna be some compromise (currently).
Tried VOID/BREAKER, a roguelite FPS, that released into Early Access last week. The game definitely has potential, but needs more time to cook.
You have a grappling hook, that can function like telekinesis powers and throw certain objects at enemies, or hook to specific points in the small combat arenas, although that isn't is fun as it should be. It's just too slow and there's seemingly always something in the way.
Then you can also find mods for your weapons to change and upgrade it. You're supposed to find synergies for the mods and essentially "break the game", but most of the time it's just to make the numbers go higher. I finished a run twice (first time is with some story elements, after that it just loops), and I think one time I got a few mods that worked well together.
The game also has destructible environments, although that's also kinda lacking, unless you find a bunch of mods to boost it.
So in the end you'll be going through the same three environments, that look extremely similar, fighting mostly the same enemies, that also look very similar, shooting with mostly basic guns, while lobbing a grenade or some random object at enemies every couple of seconds.
The building blocks are there, like I said, the game has potential, but it's just not there yet.
Otherwise with Silksongreleasing in like 10 days, my Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous playthrough will have to wait a bit more. I'm not gonna stop in the middle of a run.
It's been on PC sine March, full release. You can get it in the current Steam Sale for 30% off.
Dunno about that last part. According to some comments I've read, the head of this project has been doing some shady shit for years.
Running their own mount shop in-game, taking other people's work without permission, selling gold, whatever.
