@RinoTheBouncer @_L3vi3 If you have the assets, use them. They save time and money and gives the developers a chance to build upon something rather than building everything from scratch. Also, they are from the brotherhood of assassins. They could have similar animations bc the teachings were similar…

@CapcomUSA_ producer finally addressed the whole RE Requiem DLSS5 situation with Grace Ashcroft's character model.

Their response? "It meant we got the design right."

IMO: That's no bueno 😑

Where do you stand on this? 👇

So @Bungie creative director just came out and promised that Marathon's story will "always be accessible".

In other words: we are not going to do what we did to Destiny 2.

I appreciate the transparency, but hold them to it. Are you still playing #Marathon? #Bungie #GamingNews

@BankofAmerica published an investor note telling Take-Two to price GTA 6 at $80 at launch.

Not a gamer. A bank.

A bank is out here lobbying publishers to charge you more money for games.

Take-Two's earnings call is May 21, just sayin. #GTA6 #GamingNews #TakeTwo

May the 4th be with you. 🖤

Question: what's the greatest Star Wars game ever made? I'll start: KOTOR. Not even close.

Drop yours below. And yes, there are wrong answers.

@PRAGMATAgame A serious case of the Mondays, lol

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@HOTD_ZeroAds HOTD as a free-to-play tower defense game?...I'll try it, but I'm definitely not convinced. How about another season oif you want to make some REAL money. FTP games are a dime a dozen frfr, but I'll give it a go. I'll post about it when I have conclusive evidence

/3 Every week someone on YT is saying that gaming is dying.

Then a brand new IP with NOTHING crosses $1M sales in two days. Now I get it: the industry has problems. But new ideas can still win.Pragmata just proved it.

You playing it? LMK 👇#Pragmata #Capcom #GamingNews

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

So Capcom launched a brand new IP called Pragmata, maybe you've heard of it.

1 million copies in 2 days. 97% positive on Steam. Already in Capcom's all-time top 10.

A sequel is ALREADY being discussed. Let me explain why this matters. 🧵

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

/2 This game spent YEARS in development hell.

Announced, delayed, questioned, basically written off.

Then it launched and the audience just… showed up.

1M copies in 48 hrs with no fanbase, no legacy characters, no sequel to lean on.

That's not luck. That's a good game.

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@RinoTheBouncer Vagrant Story, Majora's Mask, and Perfect Dark in the same conversation...ughh... I have to pick Majora's Mask for how big of a Legend of Zelda fan I am, but the other two I want to see remakes of too

5/ Love it or hate it, you have to respect the stones on this guy.

The same company that almost went bankrupt is now trying to reshape e-commerce.

GameStop is not normal, and I love it.

What do you think? Genius or disaster? 👇 #GameStop #RyanCohen #GamingNews

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@gamestop just offered to buy @eBay for $55.5 billion.

Let that sink in...🧵

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

4/ And the offer? $125/share cash-and-stock is unsolicited.

eBay didn't ask for this...but they got it.

Ryan Cohen woke up this morning and was just like F it, and chose chaos.

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@RinoTheBouncer Thankfully, my wife is someone who loves the fact that I'm a gamer and, honestly, if your partner doesn't like a certain aspect of who you are, chances are they're not for you. Your partner should love you for you, not a fantasy of who you could be.

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@oelma__ Fallout 4, tho Skyrim is a close 2nd

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@MissPookems Not sure why, but for some reason I'm always drawn to playing souls-like games when I'm having a hard time. Just finished off Death's Door and it was a great distraction from the craziness of life

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@PlayStation Pragmata is my fav, though basically everything this month has been pretty dang good when it comes to quality of games 🎮 Still need to play Saros tho, it looks incredible!

[Not for Normies @NFNormies]

@mrpyo1 That’s so funny bc I just started to play the remaster of this game and I forgot how good this game was tbh. I give it a solid 8.5/10
