• Modders are working on an offline mod for troubled game The Day Before.
• Development studio Fntastic has closed its doors and the game’s servers will shut down in January.
• Luci0 and fskartd are working on a crack that would allow players to play the game offline.
It’s extra funny to me how there are people actively working on an offline mod for the scam of the year, but Starfield is not getting a co-op mod because it’s so dogshit. That alone is a special award, Todd.
I don’t understand why everyone is calling it a scam. Everyone got refunded, right? Seems like they just had a better marketing team than development team.
The scam was likely on the investors who funded the game for 5 years.
It was only sold, presumably, so they couldnt be taken to court for failing to deliver. Technically they did publish. It was just a flop
Just because they started giving out refunds because of public outcry doesn’t mean it wasn’t a scam.
There are some games which under deliver or are broken on release, but this was barely a game- yet they shipped it anyway.
It’s not the studio that handles refunds, it’s Steam. They hold onto the money for a while after a sale is made, and didn’t even have a chance to hand it over before the studio died.
Who would want this 🤣🤣
You know how people are still expressing interest in those Panera charged lemonades even though they’ve legit killed 3 people…?
As a former pack a day smoker and coffee addict, I get it.
Potentially lethal is the amount of caffeine I look for in any drink, but those lemonades only have coffee levels of caffeine. They taste perfectly fine, but not worth a special trip to Panera just for them.
Gaming history preservation, even the bad games.
Yeah I mean look at the Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties PS Vita port
"the uncut gem of the '20s ’
For free? Absolutely me, I knew well enough not to purchase the game, but I am curious just how bad it is.
Thumbnail looks like the Last of Us. What was this game?
This video sums it up pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMh7lv8wmHs
Wow no wonder they are shutting down. Based on what this game was supposed to be what exactly would be the point of a single player mode?
Unless they also going fix all bugs and add quest our something.
It was supposed to be a MMORPG, but it became an extraction shooter at launch. So an offline mod would be PVE extraction.
See this comment thread. 😄
The fact someone finds it valuable enough to make this mod at all just is further proof that most people have no damn standards and just willingly spread their cheeks for this dystopian nightmare of an industry.
We don’t know what the future might find valuable so we might as well make an effort to conserve everything we can.
if ya wanna wrap up a pile of shit with a shiny ribbon, be my guest i suppose, i just dont get this particular case
I get where you’re coming from, but as counterpoint, we’ve learned a lot about dinosaurs from fossilized shit.
I present to you, Ark
Except ark for all of its faults is at least a somewhat complete game with a clear progression path. I’ve had my fair share of wildcard hate, and they still seem to be dropping the ball to this day, but you can’t deny that it was popular for quite some time and still is to an extent.
Atlas says…what about me.
I still don’t know or why people are so upset about this game, I mean it was basically a red flag right from the get go, or maybe I’m just getting old…
Do you remember the days when Day Z launched, there we got games like this on a weekly basis and we had no refunds.
There was this game called The War Z which was so much worse than The Day before and also had wrong advertising, was removed from steam for a short period and an asset flip of another game. It got also rebranded two times and was re-released under those new names until it was shut down 2016. One of the developers of this game, Sergey Titov, was infamous among the gaming community and they investigated and presented all the bad games he was behind, it was hilarious.
History just repeats itself but now we are better secured du to steam’s refund policies.
Reminds me of the Escape from Tarkov singeplayer mod.
I wish they would help out the people working for the offline mode in The Crew that is going to shut down in march.
Ooofff, that title. Based on what was capitalization chosen?
It’s title case
“For” shouldn’t be capitalized in title case tho
Why is “in the” not capitalized but “For Those” is? To me, that means it is part of a name. Like the name of a game “For Those bla”, making it confusing to read.
