You don’t need that same software. The principle is still the same though, you’re loading ROMs of games on there. The 3DS console method simplifies it because they created their own freeshop, but with this, you’re going to load the ROMs yourself.
Great review, as always I love your content! You mentioned a higher price point but I don’t think you mentioned the actual price anywhere in the review. Or did I miss it? I guess it’s just a quick search away.
This year in particular has been absolutely insane. I’ve played more releases the same year they launched this year than any in recent memory and still feel like I’ve missed out.
Dragon Age was last year. Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, and Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves are all great. Avowed kind of counts, and I’d recommend that one, too. I didn’t like Hades, but Hades fans sure are enjoying Hades II. And maybe I’ll get to Hollow Knight: Silksong before the end of the year, which people seem to largely be into.
I could play through it. I’m 40, don’t talk and know the game like the back of my hand. But I’d prefer the Remaster since it’s not all fucked up in Blighttown or the last half of the game.
Not op. Link it and I’ll watch it. There are a lot of games I’m too lazy to play but want to know about the lore and storyline.
It’s very hard to find that sweet spot between complete silence and “omg you don’t need to explain every single item in every single chest!”
Knowing the game inside and out gives you the advantage of being like “you need to know this about what’s going on, also this over here is world building lore, that over there is just randomized loot tho so I’ll skip it”
It would be complete silence ATM since I don’t have a mic.I am planning on getting a pair of lappel mics once I receive the gift card I won last week, tho. Not sure when that’ll be, but I was planning on streaming damn near everything I do once I get that.
You could start streaming now as practice but yeah I’d only be interested after you got the mic. Let me know when you got that going and I’ll take a look. There’s a lot of us out there who just want to watch a semi casual play they of a game. Some conversations but not a 16 hour deep dive into the sword mechanics.
Same with personal banter, maybe tell a funny story but leave out life dramas lol
Just a chill game watching experience for a game I’m too lazy to play.
All they did was make it an option in the controls like in 3 instead of always being on. You can definitely still dead-angle in DS:R if you turn it on. Or just don’t use lock-on.
ESH. Those suggested aren't even as promising as Roblox, but im feeling afraid as I tell you the only closest one I found is https://github.com/openblox
Agreed, puts a damper on everything else that follows.
Requires 3rd-party account: fuck that
Also agreed. If I buy a Steam game, I’d generally much rather it be accessible through Steam and do not appreciate when games are sold on Steam for other platforms.
60 euros base game: expensive, especially when the game has mixed reviews
Not the worst price, but yeah I’d definitely expect a much better review score to justify that price. In the absence of a good review score this would be something I’d have to know I’m going to enjoy before I’d consider buying it full price.
175 euros DLC’s: are you fucking kidding me? On top of 60 euros for the base game, there’s another 175 fees for content?
I don’t know for certain about this particular game, but I do know people were shitting on Monster Hunter: Rise for the exact same reason: a seemingly exorbitant amount of DLC available from release implying it’s a cash grab and just trying to milk more cash out of the player.
That being said, in my opinion MHR wasn’t even half as bad as the naysayers would have you believe. MHR on release on Steam had a lot of DLC, sure, but it didn’t launch on Steam. It launched on the Switch then later was ported to Steam with all of the same DLC they had worked on since its launch a year prior.
Almost all of the DLC was exclusively cosmetic skins, and almost all of those were part of bundles available for significantly cheaper prices than each one individually. I don’t recall the exact prices but I believe it was something like buy 10 skins individually for $2/ea or buy all of them in a bundle for $5. The real price for any sane person for all 10 skins would be $5, but this showed up on Steam as 11 DLC items with a total of $25. Multiply this by the 6-10 ish bundles they had on the title’s release on Steam to get a huge quantity of items and a massively inflated price compared to what anyone who wanted everything would realistically pay, assuming they paid attention.
I don’t know that CoD is doing a similar thing here, and I certainly wouldn’t give them the benefit of the doubt, but I dislike this argument against them because it can be very misleading.
purchasable CoD points: so pay to win?
Not necessarily P2W, but yeah I’m not a fan of MTX either and again wouldn’t give CoD the benefit of the doubt to have a good or fair monetization model.
I can’t say I like how /Games often circles around negative attention rather than positive.
Activision spent billions on marketing so people will buy these stupid Ultra Editions. Even negative attention gets people thinking about and talking about the game.
Instead, post about the cool indie games out that you think deserve far more attention than this battle pass slop. Let Activision come check up on us and cry because for all their efforts no one even cares to hate on their game.
Theres an asymmetric game out as a demo, called Carnival Hunt. It has a really unique aesthetic, and isn’t all that fun yet, in part because of the formula being refined and players getting better at it. But I like the idea: Rather than TCM’s idea of unlocking doors towards an exit, the survivors, “bunnies”, are trying to climb the floors of a large building, with each method of ascending a floor requiring various tools and making noise. Some ways up are harder to set up but easier to repeat, others only work if the killer is ignoring them.
This is the reality everyone on Lemmy, and even reddit, needs to face. We’re a minority of a minority of people. All the people who glaze and go nonstop about Linux? That’s not even half of Lemmy users, and you can find someone like that in just about every thread on Lemmy, regardless of context.
We’re such a miniscule group of people we probably wouldn’t even register on studies about social behavior.
I tried to use OpenSUSE tumbleweed for about 6 months as my main desktop, but eventually due to many of the things I wanted to do being a real pain to do in linux, said fuck it and went back to windows whilst building a new high end gaming rig.
It really sucks as I hate Microsoft with a burning passion, but if you want to play games, or use many CAD packages or make music, or watch videos (specifically with pot player for me, as it absolutely dunks on VLC unfortunately), then you just have to use Windows.
I haaaaaate the obvious attempts by the new taskbar to control user behaviour.
I hate the spying which it takes a while to turn most of it off, I hate… a lot, but the world is how it is.
I’m very thankful for Steamdecks gaining steam so that one day hopefully gaming on linux will be possible, and maybe adoption goes up and then maybe other apps follow.
Maybe the US collapse will have Europe mass switching, causing professional apps to also move over, especially CAD.
Bigwig studio is a great ableton replacement that is Linux native too. Made by some of the original team from ableton too iirc.
Theres also Reaper if you want something closer to FL studio.
I’m not into CAD stuff at the moment but I’m pretty sure there are some really good open source ones out there at the moment that are Linux native also.
I’ve not had any issues with any games on bazzite or cachyos either. Although I don’t play AAA multiplayer games with the shitty anti cheats, which i think are the only ones that don’t work now. Master Chief collection is about as close to that as I go but that works completely fine.
Keep in mind with bazzite and cachyos i also didn’t need to do any tinkering to get the games to work. They just do.

Oh I wish, but the only thing worth anything is FreeCAD, and it is literally pain to use. The UI is infamously horrific, they’re only now sort of fixing basic issues like the infamous topology issue, and it seems like the devs are dead set on breaking all the standard UI and UX conventions of every other CAD program since the beginning of time, and its just pain to use or learn.
Then it breaks your designs all the time too with cryptic errors.
The other ones, some of them only have basic modelling capabilities, are completely programatic, and you have no hopes of doing things like FEA or anything like that, much less motion studies or the other basics you need to successfully make a lot of things.
Its in a painful state, and CAD, if you even want to make a cent with other CAD software is bare minimum almost 1000 USD per year.
Its very depressing if you are a more creative person and not made out of money.
Keep in mind with bazzite and cachyos i also didn’t need to do any tinkering to get the games to work. They just do.
I’ve been told this many times, and sure its true for single player games without awful DRM schemes, but you can basically count multiplayer games out, and many games that have awful phone home systems.
Its ultimately like, how much do i want to fight my own operating system, and when people have a finite level of burn before burnout, how much do you really want to spend of that burn on an operating system you use daily?
Its a heavy cost for not that much benefit, especially with so much on fire right now.
Maybe Ill try again eventually if there is at least a competent CAD package available.
Like I said, I play quite a bit of multiplayer games that work fine. Just not the shitty live service with awful kernel level anti cheat ones which you would never have caught me playing even back on windows.
The only notable games I know that don’t work are valorant and league because of their anti cheat, but i would never want to play them anyway. I’ve played marvel rivals on bazzite though, perfect experience, ended up running better on the same hardware than it did on windows.
I also feel like I have to fight against windows now more then ever. I currently still have to use it for work and it can be a nightmare at times. On Linux if something is wrong I can almost always find a way to fix it. Most of the time you’re shit out of luck on windows 11.
I gotta be honest, there was, and always seems to be so much more to fight against whenever I use linux pretty much purely because there is just less third party support for it.
The number of things that I just give up on because I know itll be another multi hour fight for something basic are too high.
Like KDE Plasma is goated, but I just, from personal experience, just don’t buy the idea that you don’t fight more on linux. You have more agency, but you also have to use it more.
I have 2 modern desktop systems, so Ill probably continue to play with it, and I certainly will obviously keep using it for my NAS, self hosting projects, but in terms of a desktop os, oof; I don’t have the energy/fight/will and resolve.
I’ve used linux systems for years btw, in jobs, in my personal life etc, so really the only thing that was new was trying to use it as my main desktop self administrated OS for general purposes.
A lot of my recent experiences have been with arch and because it’s always up to date and AUR being as expensive as it is, I always seen to find an easy way to install something, even third party stuff. I’ve never hit any of the issues people have with saying an update can break your system yet, but then again I only install what I need and always uninstall stuff that I either installed accidentally or no longer need.
I tried fedora with nobara for a bit because I liked bazzite, but it wasn’t for me. I got too used to what’s available to me via arch or at least being used to know where to look for that stuff on arch vs fedora
Does it have a HDMI port to connect to a TV? Since it’s Android, I suppose pairing a new controller would be easy, so stuff you emulate from home consoles can be played with 2-4 people
No HDMI port but does support video over its USB c connector and full support for multiple controllers. Most handhelds that start around probably $150 and are android based will most likely have this functionality as well.
