SquigglyEmpire, do games w Me and a friend of mine were having a discussion on the holocaust and got banned for mentioning the N word. This is not the first time in games. How come they censor it?

It sounds like you’re referring to the National Socialist German Workers’ Party of WWII infamy. People are probably going to assume something else, FYI.

Don_Dickle,

Nope I wasn't I was refferin to the NAz word. And I will probably get banned for this but just wondering?

SquigglyEmpire is trying to say that “the N word” typically refers to a derogatory word for black people, not for Nazi.

Video games would probably ban you for saying Nazi because it’s a nasty thing to call someone or be called. It probably isn’t relevant to the game and it’s a topic they’d probably prefer not to have discussed.

While I haven’t seen the previous conversation, looking at the title of this post and also at the title of the community, that leads me to believe that this may not be a community for political history.

Since many historical events (especially in regards to politics) may be controversial, painful, horrendously offensive, stressful or annoying, that also leads me to believe some people might have gotten pissed off reading that stuff in this particular community.

That is my best guess.

imPastaSyndrome, do gaming w 98% compatibility

These metrics mean nothing to me

megopie, (edited )

Proton is steam’s compatibility tool, these “medals” basically indicate how well a game works through it. Platnium and gold mean work without troubleshooting. Silver means a little tinkering with settings. Bronze means it can work with effort, and borked means it just doesn’t work.

So, 84% working with 0 effort, and 11% working with light tinkering.

The post is kind of incomprehensible if you’re not already familiar with proton and the troubleshooting website proton DB.

imPastaSyndrome,

It’s also not a great metric if you don’t know what games the dude regularly buys especially if they’re already a*nix user

megopie,

i mean, basically everything works so long as it doesn’t use certain anti cheat systems. But knowing what they play would have been more useful for the sake of discussion.

fushuan,

Given that league is widely played, that addendum you did is sadly a huge blocker for a lot of people, but because of league and valorant.

megopie, (edited )

yah, it’s a bummer, but most people who play games on PC aren’t playing such tittles. The current online player count for league is about 2.5 million as supposed to the total steam active player count of 25 million. A lot of people play league, but, like, it’s hardly a problem that everyone has.

I dunno, I haven’t been able to get Subnautica to work for some reason. It’s likely due to the games own spaghetti code barely being functional on the intended OS’s as is…

But it’s a bummer nontheless.

Same goes for XCOM.

CrossCode, for the third time in about two weeks.

I’m 5 years late to it because for some reason I thought it was a JRPG…

Corr,

Yesssss. I love this game. I think I need to get back to it some time.

Sonotsugipaa,
@Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

If you want to comb the game for unique dialogue and Lea expressions, make sure to start and finish a Sergey Hax run when you do get back to it

Corr,

Sorry for the late reply. I think I watched a video with these. I think playing with sergey hax would overall detract from doing a second play through but the extra dialogues/expressions are spectacular.

I’m currently playing through iconoclasts which was recommended as having some similarities to crosscode and I see them. Been having a good time so far with it.
That said, it’s very difficult to compare with Lea

Sonotsugipaa,
@Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

The cheaty gameplay isn’t that bad, as long as it’s not the first playthrough. It’s definitely way too easy to give you a sense of accomplishment against all odds, but it also allows you to skip all the grind and the sidequests that you should’ve already done (as those, AFAIK, have no Lea-dependent dialogue).


I didn’t know Iconoclasts was usually compared to CrossCode!
I can’t really see any similarities. It’s a great game, definitely on the level of CC if a bit less git gud in nature, but the only similarity I can think of is both games using pixel art.

Corr,

I suppose not needing to grind for better gear would be nice. I think I want my next play through to be a repeat of the first and the grinding was part of the 💫 experience 💫
But I can’t relive that experience so maybe sergey hax is the way to go.

As to iconoclasts, Nothing gameplay wise is similar but the characters/dialogue seem reminiscent of what crosscode brings to the table, which to me was a big part of my enjoyment.

sic_semper_tyrannis, do gaming w Let's discuss: Slay the Spire

Cool, I’ll check out this game now. On GoG and a native Linux version

knokelmaat,

Haha how did you end up here after all those months?

sic_semper_tyrannis,

Oh I didn’t even realize it was that old. All the subsequent posts have links to the past discussions. All the posts seem to have interesting games so I was looking through them all for ideas. Thanks for the discussion!

knokelmaat,

Haha I’m glad the links are being used, I included them for exactly that reason!

Slay the Spire is one of my favorite games of all time, so good choice if you decide to take the plunge!

I just finished Sonic the Hedgehog last evening and I’m trying to decide what I want to play next!

theangriestbird,

i heard they made a sequel for that one. not many people know about it!

stargazingpenguin,

Hmm, some of those little known games can be half decent sometimes! ;-) I do have Sonic 2, but I think I’m going to wait a bit. Even though I enjoy the games I’m not that good at them, so by the time I finished it I need a break!

theVerdantOne,

I’m getting ready to play Sonic Delta, a Sonic 3 ROM hack that allows you to play all three Genesis sonic games back to back.

stargazingpenguin,

Sounds interesting!

theangriestbird,

hmmm that sounds intriguing…i wonder if it has any retroachievements? a surprising number of romhacks do have achievement sets. i want to check but the site is down rn 😭

stargazingpenguin,

It’s back up! retroachievements.org/game/14772

I was in the middle of playing Zelda when the servers went down yesterday. I’m guessing it was something about the GameCube achievement launch.

Na aktualną sytuację wiem, że istnieje Nieoficjalny Kanał RSS do oko.press oparty na bocie do mastodona.

Podobno oko.press udostępnia niektóre treści osobom z założonym kontem więc i źródło do kanału też mogliby udostępniać, ale szczerze w to wątpię, bo bądź co bądź technologia rss z winy google’a dalej jest uznawana za martwą technologię, z której mało kto korzysta.

[EDIT]: Oczywiście przez pośpiech wyszedłem na forumowego debila i zamiast ci wysłać kanał, to podesłałem link do źródła… Wystarczy, że dasz też profil jako kanał w swoim agregatorze i powinno działać.

Still wading through Diablo 4: Season 4. I have one more objective to get all the rewards for the season, but I gotta choose between beating Uber Lilith, Tormented Duriel, or Tormented Andariel, all of which are a bitch to fight. I have all my glyphs upgraded to the absolute max, and most of my items are in a good place, but I need to go through The Pit some more to upgrade them further, but it's such a grinding pain that I get bored quickly.

Diablo 3: Season 32 started this week, and I decided to go with a Necromancer after the disaster of a time I had with the Witch Doctor last season. It's only been a day, but I'm already feeling better about this round.

Finally finished Subnautica! While the last stretch was a little grindy and tedious, the ending was nice, and overall, I'm really glad I stuck to it and made it through. I can see myself revisiting this in the future, if nothing else that to see how building different bases in different locations would affect how quickly I could get things done. Or to just see what amazing base I could build in general.
I thought about playing Below Zero, but I haven't heard as great of things compared to this one, and I'm also not sure if I could stand another 60ish hours of swimming around lol. I did end up getting it on Steam anyway during the Summer Sale, so at the very least it's on the To Play List.

Had the urge to play Resident Evil 3 REmake again, so I did. I forgot it was so short, especially for a Resident Evil game.

For my next non Diablo game, I think I want to revisit The Darkness series. I've only played each game once, but I had a fun time with both, so I might see what achievements there are and do some hunting.

Is RE3 remake worth playing? I loved the remake of the second one.

CharlesReed,
@CharlesReed@kbin.run avatar

I wouldn't say it's as good as the RE2 remake, but it's a fun little ride and I enjoy playing it. Like I said, it's really short, and from what my friends who have played the original say, it cut some areas and isn't quite as faithful to the original as RE2 is. To me it's a nice little supplement to RE2, since it also takes place in Raccoon City, as well as giving more to Jill's story in the RE universe as a whole. I wouldn't recommend buying it full price, but if there's a good sale I'd nab it.

OmegaMouse,
@OmegaMouse@pawb.social avatar

Ahh thanks - It’s included within an existing Playstation subscription I have, so I can play it without any extra charge. If it’s short and fun like you say, I’ll definitely give it a go!

Just started the Talks Talos principle and have just found this thing!

https://feddit.dk/pictrs/image/15a374c7-6e15-4f44-b6cf-f32225774b72.webp

ComfortableRaspberry,

I loved the vibes and exploring the area to find more riddles and become more confused :D

Sadly the game triggers my motion sickness :(

JohnOliver, (edited )

I had the same issue actually! I was looking for a sensitivity or dead zone setting when i fount their ‘motion sickness’ setting. It even has an auto option that guesses the best settings for you if you have issues with motion sickness ! It worked perfectly!

ComfortableRaspberry,

Ooooh, this must be new. Then I’ll give it another try. Thanks a lot for this info <3

Nithanim,

Pretty sure it is called The Talos Principle but glad you found this gem!

JohnOliver,

Sorry… autocorrect seems to not know of talos 🤦‍♂️

Finished watchdogs 2And started watchdogs 1 with some mods. It’s my first time playing watchdogs and liking it so far!.

theangriestbird,

what do you like most about it? is it hitting something unique, or is it just really nice open world “comfort food” gaming?

rolofox,
@rolofox@lemmy.zip avatar

I had an itch for a GTA type of game, had watchdogs on my backlog. I started with WD2 it was the one I already had installed. I liked the idea of the world and that it was in San Francisco, came to like the characters and the astheric.

Now with WD1 im liking the new city and the story and gameplay is more serious that the second one. In this one it involves more gunplay.

theangriestbird,

That makes sense! I haven’t played them, but I remember the marketing of WD1 having a more serious tone. It’s always nice when you have the perfect game to scratch a particular itch

comicallycluttered,

There’s a jazz/soul radio station in the first game that has some real bangers as well if you’re into that.

Oh yeah have been paying attention to the music I really like it, they have some good songs that take me back.
