Ubisoft je uklonio svoje dolazeće igre sa Steama. Dakle, ono što je do sada postojalo je i dalje tu, ali igre poput Assassin's Creed Unity, Far Cry 4 i The Crew koje su do juče bile dostupne za preorder, više ne postoje na Steamu. Nešto se tu gadno pregovara između Ubija i Valvea. Činjenica je da sve Ubisoft igre ionako zahtevaju instalaciju Uplay-ja tako da ga svi mi manje više već imamo sa sve nalozima, ali ovo je svakako interesantan razvoj. Prvo su EA otišli sa Steama, sada Ubi kreće istim stopama. Ako i Activision u nekom momentu pomisli da Origin i Uplay imaju smisla, i oni će napraviti platformu za distribuciju i onda će Steam biti vše za mid-tier i nezavisne igre. Interesantna vremena.

Ljudi zainteresovani da saznaju šta se kuva u novom Blackguardsu (ja nisam odigro ni stari, teško meni), ovde će naći neke odgovore.

Shadows: Heretic kingdoms odložen na 7 dana. A baš me zaintrigirao zaplet:

In this isometric action RPG, the player takes on the role of the Devourer, a demon that swallows the souls of the dead and then brings them back into the mortal realm as his puppets. It's up to him to either thwart a major threat and save the world, or to plunge it into complete disaster...

Ovo za Mass Effect bi bilo sjajno posedovati (AKO UKLJUČE DLC, DAKAKO) a za ovo ostalo sam znao. Injustice i The Swapper već imam na PC-ju ali je odlično što ću ih imati i na konzoli, obe igre su sjajne i baš me raduje mogućnost igranja istih sa troseda i na televizoru, Secret Ponchos nastavlja izuzetnu praksu davanja PS+ članovima novih, visokokvalitetnih indi igara na dan lansiranja (čovek ne može da se žali ad dobie lepote poput The Binding of Isaac Rebirth, Velocity 2X ili Hohokum na dan njihovog izlaska pa se Secret Ponchos lepo uklapa). Jedino mi za First Light malo krivo jer sam ga kupio na launch day ne računajući da će tako brzo da stigne u PS+ ponudu, ali neka, nma veze, ja volim inFamous i drago mi da Sucker punch od mene dobiju podršku, plus jajno je da Sony konačno kreću sa davanjem novih AAA igara, iako je ovo samo DLC...

Nego, posle mojih silnih pohvala Shadow of Mordoru, evo da vidite kako sve to izgleda u praksi kada igru igra Angry Joe i stalno biva ubijen od strane istog orka. Zabavno je jer Joe, naravno, pizdi a ork postaje sve moćniji sa svakim sledećim susretom. Doduše, dodaću i da Joe, verovatno žureći da igru završi zbog rivjua, sve do pred kraj ima dosta slabiji build od onog koji sam ja imao već oko polovine igre te da ne koristi u dovoljnoj meri mogućnost combat brandinga (mada negde na 18:40 objašnjava da namerno ne koristi branding jer želi da Olgotha pobedi "pošteno") i razne crowd control tehnike koje (bi trebalo da) ima na raspolaganju. Ali je zabavno jer pokazuje kakav tačno odnos može da se razvije između igrača i virtuelnog lika koji je pritom proceduralno generisan i zbog čega mnogi misle da je Shadow of Mordor igra koja će imati dalekosežne posledice na dalji razvoj igara:

Još jedna studija koja ukazuje da povećanje nasilja koje se prikazuje u video igrama ne može da se poveže sa porastom nasilja u društvu:



No link found between movie, video game violence and societal violence

QuoteAn increased violent video game consumption correlates with declines in youth violence Washington, DC (November 5, 2014) – Since the 1920s, scholars and politicians have blamed violence in movies and other media as a contributing factor to rising violence in society. Recently the responses to mass shootings in Aurora, CO and at Sandy Hook Elementary followed this theme as media consumption came into the equation. But can consumption of violent media really be a factor in real-world violence? A recent study published in the Journal of Communication by a researcher at Stetson University found that there were no associations between media violence consumption in society and societal violence.
Christopher Ferguson (Stetson University) published his findings in the Journal of Communication. Ferguson conducted two studies that raised the question if whether the incidence of violence in media correlates with actual violence rates in society. The first study looked at movie violence and homicide rates between 1920 and 2005. The second study looked at videogame violence consumption and its relationship to youth violence rates from 1996-2011. He found that societal consumption of media violence is not predictive of increased violence rates in society.
For the first study, independent raters evaluated the frequency and graphicness of violence in popular movies from 1920-2005. These were correlated to homicide rates for the same years. Overall, movie violence and homicide rates were not correlated. However, during the mid-20th century, movie violence and homicide rates did appear to correlate slightly, which may have led some to believe a larger trend was at play. That correlation reversed after 1990 so that movie violence became correlated with fewer homicides. Prior to the 1940s, movie violence was similarly related to fewer homicides, not more.
In the second study on video game violence, the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) ratings were used to estimate the violent content of the most popular video games for the years 1996-2011. These estimates of societal video game violence consumption were correlated against federal data on youth violence rates during the same years. Violent video game consumption was strongly correlated with declines in youth violence.  However, it was concluded that such a correlation is most likely due to chance and does not indicate video games caused the decline in youth violence. 
Previous studies have focused on laboratory experiments and aggression as a response to movie and videogame violence, but this does not match well with real-life exposure. Other studies have indicated that, in the short term, the release of violent movies or video games is associated with declines in societal violence. However, no one has examined these trends long-term. Some scholars have argued that movies are becoming more violent, but none have examined whether this phenomenon is a concern for society. This study is the first to suggest that movie violence and video game violence consumption probably are increasing over time, but that there is little evidence that this has caused a problem for society.
"Society has a limited amount of resources and attention to devote to the problem of reducing crime. There is a risk that identifying the wrong problem, such as media violence, may distract society from more pressing concerns such as poverty, education and vocational disparities and mental health," Ferguson said. "This research may help society focus on issues that really matter and avoid devoting unnecessary resources to the pursuit of moral agendas with little practical value."

Neverovatno, ovi profesori čak i kad pokušaju da se modernizuju opet ispadnu zastareli. Na laptopu se vidi originalna Dota, koja se vrti na starom Warcraft 3 endžinu. Bolje bi im bilo da pređu na Dotu 2, jer je tu upravljanje mnogo lakše i igranje komfornije, pa mogu da se bolje koncentrišu na ono što je zaista bitno, timski rad.

Pogotovo što za or'ginal DotA moraš da imaš (plaćeni, prizjumabli) Warcraft III, a DOTA2 je fraj. Ali valjda zbog hardverskih zahteva...

Wait, what?

Ne neočekivano, Sony je najavio cloud televizijski servis za svoje konzole:

Sony Has A Cloud TV Service, Coming To PS3 & PS4

Quote

Introducing PlayStation Vue, Sony's New On-Demand TV Service
Sony Network Entertainment International And Sony Computer Entertainment Unveil PlayStation™Vue, A New Cloud-Based TV Service That Pioneers The Future Of Television
Access live TV and on-demand content without a cable or satellite service
Select PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®3 Owners Will Be Able to Preview the Service in Beta Starting This Month
SAN MATEO, Calif., Nov. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Sony Network Entertainment International LLC (SNEI) and Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCE) today unveiled PlayStation™Vue, a pioneering new cloud-based TV service that reinvents the television experience.
"Everyday TV is about to become extraordinary with our new cloud-based TV service, PlayStation™Vue," said Andrew House, President and Group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. and Group Executive in charge of the Network Entertainment Business. "PlayStation™Vue reinvents the traditional viewing experience so your programming effortlessly finds you, enabling you to watch much more of what you want and search a lot less. PlayStation™Vue brings the best of live TV and a robust catalog of the latest content, always keeping you connected to what's popular, new and trending. Today's announcement builds on the historic success of PlayStation®4 and demonstrates what our company is capable of when we embrace disruption and stay true to gamers."
Removing Barriers between Viewers and Content4
PlayStation™Vue leverages the power of the cloud to combine the live, on-demand, and catch-up TV content viewers love with a powerful user interface that delivers unprecedented personalization and simplicity.
PlayStation™Vue immediately connects viewers to the content they want to watch, helps them easily access their favorite shows and channels, and recommends movies and shows based on their viewing habits and what's trending.
Discovering content is both simple and powerful with PlayStation™Vue. The smart "Search" feature narrows down results quickly and intuitively, and the powerful "Explore" function allows viewers to filter the entire catalog of live and on-demand content by type of program, genre, ratings, popularity, length and more.
PlayStation™Vue delivers catch-up and on-demand TV, freeing viewers to watch TV on their own schedules. The service makes the past three days of popular programming available without the need to schedule recordings.
Viewers can save their favorite shows to the cloud without storage restrictions or scheduling conflicts. Once viewers tag a favorite show, they will automatically have access to episodes of that show for 28 days so that they can watch on their own time.5
PlayStation™Vue is simple to navigate and intuitive to use. By leveraging the power of the PlayStation® platform and controller, viewers are always one click away from quick access to watching, finding, and discovering content.
The Best Content on TV
During the invite-only beta, PlayStation™Vue will initially offer around 75 channels per market from the following major programmers, including local broadcast stations, so that viewers can enjoy their favorite movies, TV shows, and sports programs.
The following is a list of our current network partners, with additional partners to be announced in the future:
CBS – At launch, PlayStation®Vue will offer the live linear signal from CBS Television Network's owned-and-operated TV stations in select leading markets in addition to on-demand prime-time programming.
Discovery Communications – Discovery Channel, TLC, Animal Planet, Investigation Discovery, Science, OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network, Discovery Family Channel and 11 more brands.
Fox – Fox Networks Group's portfolio of national entertainment programming services, including - FX, FXX, FXM, National Geographic Channel and Nat Geo WILD. Additionally FOX Sports' national and regional programming services - FOX Sports 1, FOX Sports 2, BTN, Fox's regional sports networks, including YES Network and Prime Ticket. The agreement also covers Fox's owned and operated television stations.
NBCUniversal – All local offerings from NBC, Telemundo and regional sports networks as well as Bravo, CNBC, E!, NBCSN, Oxygen, Sprout, Syfy, USA Network and more.
Scripps Networks Interactive – HGTV, Food Network, Travel Channel, DIY Network and Cooking Channel.
Viacom – BET, CMT, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon, PALLADIA, Spike, VH1 and more.
Transparent Pricing with No Commitments
Pricing and packaging details will be revealed at commercial launch but PlayStation™Vue is changing the rules for how people pay for subscription TV.
What you see is what you pay – fair and competitive price that is transparent with no hidden fees or charges.
No contracts – maximum flexibility as PlayStation™Vue will be offered on a month-to-month basis without any penalty or customer service hassles for cancellation.
No equipment or installation charges – with broadband internet service and a PlayStation®4 system or PlayStation®3 system, there's no need to install or rent any additional equipment.
Availability
PlayStation™Vue will begin an invite only beta preview during November for select PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®3 owners, with a phased rollout starting in New York followed later by Chicago, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. The service will also become available on iPad® shortly thereafter, and later on more Sony and non-Sony devices.
PlayStation™Vue will launch commercially during the first quarter of 2015.

Statistika je kao bikini i sve to, ali imati na umu: za sada, jedva četvrtina igara u Steamovom Early Access programu na kraju i bude izdata kao završen proizvod:

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2014-11-13-early-access-popularity-growing-but-only-25-percent-have-released-as-a-full-game

Ne videh u tekstu (možda sam prevideo, jer sam više pretrčao preko njega, nego što sam čitao) ono što bi bio najzanimljiviji podatak. Koliko igara definitivno nikad neće izaći od tih 75% pokušaja koji (još uvek) nisu dosegli cilj?

Pa, to se ne zna, ogromna većina se vodi kao da je i dalje u razvoju, dakle, objavljuju se novi buildovi, apdejtuje se strana sa informacijama itd. Samo par igara je uklonjeno zato što je postalo jasno da su ih developeri napustili. No, fakat je da bi sad tu moralo da se razgrne i vidi koliko tih koji objavljuju apdejte za svoju igru stvarno nešto rade a koliko zamazuju oči masi sa apdejtima koji su tipa "pročistili smo šejdere i stabilizovali kod". Opet, Early Access uvek ide uz upozorenje da treba da platiš za ovu igru samo ako želiš da je igraš takvu kakva je BAŠ SADA.

Ah, pa to je onda sa pravne tačke gledišta sasvim u redu. 

Pa, jeste, sa pravne. I, u teoriji, sa potrošačke takođe, naprosto, pogledaš kakva je igra, kakav je developer koji je pravi, baciš pogled na cenu i iskalkulišeš da li ti sve to zvuči kako treba. E, sad, trenutno smo još uvek u ranom periodu razvoja ove filozofije pa ima problematičnih momenata kao što je onaj sa Spacebase DF9, gde je igra koštala 20 evra ne zato što je trenutni sadržaj to opravdavao već zato što se očekivalo da će developer renomea kao što je Double Fine ipak na kraju isporučiti većinu obećanog. Pa smo videli kako se to završilo. Ako ništa drugo, Massive Chalice je mnogo zaokruženije iskustvo za sada a izlazak pune verzije treba da bude tek u Martu.

Mijamoto o kinematskim ambicijama u dizajniranju igara (aka stariji čovek gunđa zbog onoga što radi mlađarija... mada se ovde ja sa starijim čovekom uglavnom slažem):

QuoteWhile speaking with The Telegraph, Nintendo designer Shigeru Miyamoto expressed his feelings on the idea of making games into guided cinematic experiences. According to Miyamoto, it's the players, not designers, that need to be the director of their own experiences.
"These younger game creators, they want to be recognized," he said. "They want to tell stories that will touch people's hearts. And while I understand that desire, the trend worries me. It should be the experience that is touching. What I strive for is to make the person playing the game the director. All I do is help them feel that, by playing, they're creating something that only they could create."


He continued, explaining one of the powerful key differences between passively watching a film and actively playing a game.
"When you play a game, one moment you're just controlling it and then suddenly you feel you're in its world," Miyamoto said. "And that's something you cannot experience through film or literature. It's a completely unique experience."
Miyamoto went on to discuss his approach to game design, noting that his and Nintendo's strategy differs greatly from that of their competition.
"What the other companies are doing makes business sense," he said. "But it's boring. The same games appear on every system. At Nintendo we want an environment where game creators can collaborate and think of ideas for games that could have never happened before."
