It looks really interesting! Not sure if that’s going to be a week one purchase like the Arbites was, I’ll take a look at it once it’s proper released and I play some games with them as allies.
I hoaxes picked up the Arbites yet, but there’s strong odds I snag the Scum right away. The mechanics on offer are so interesting and unique. Maybe I’ll be your ally some time so I can show you it’s features!
I went all in on it… I fully drank that Koolaid and was an early backer, got an extra controller and really thought it was going to be amazing. But their whole launch was so bungled that by the time I actually got it I was so disillusioned with the whole company that I couldn’t enjoy it. It sucked to have bought into the kickstarter and financed the project, and then see the product on the shelves at Target while I was still waiting on mine to be delivered. I had mine for a couple of months before reselling it at a loss.
Several years later when Stadia was announced I felt that little familiar glimmer of hope pop up, but I didn’t let myself get too excited for it. I did eventually get a couple of Stadia controllers and really enjoyed that service (and I still use those controllers today).

Shit, I didn’t realize it got that bad. I’m honestly surprised I didn’t hear more rage about that online at the time.
Oh dang, it was my media PC until 2017, when the switch took over its role, IIRC. Definitely got my money’s worth out of it even if there were no games lmao
Ouya wasn’t all bad though! Some great games came out of it. Towerfall and Bombsquad are still favorite party games in my house. No Brakes Valet and Hidden in Plain Sight also still get played occasionally.
Fair. I did use it for emulating NES and SNES, but the controller connection was horrible, so I found it easier to use the Raspberry Pi.
Now it’s in my shelf along with my other consoles: C64, PS1-4 (5 is in the living room), PSP, DS and gaming stuff and collectibles. People usually ask about it, lol.
The controller was absolute garbage! The analog sticks would get snagged where the battery covers split. Batteries on the front for who knows why.
Lol mine’s living in the closet now and thankfully all those games have released for the PC Gabecube. I’ll keep the hardware as a fun experiment in history though.
heh, I have Superbook for the exact same purpose! (for the uninitated: it was a “laptop” which used your phone/tablet/etc as the tech, it was basically just a 1080p screen and keyboard for a phone).
Mine took 3-4 factory resets and firmware flashes to get working, and then the damn thing gave up the ghost the same night and hasn’t worked since… not that it has any real use anyway. Good buy /s
This is my biggest regret purchase lmao. Which is good. But yeah I basically never used it. Very unlike me because I would rather eat my bad decision. But it’s was so laggy I turned it off and waited for updates that never came. Took me years to finally throw it away.
I loved mine! Did exactly what I bought it for, emulation on my TV and playing media from my server. Replaced it with a Shield eventually, but don’t regret backing it on Kickstarter.
Because the Xbox was built in secret while Microsoft and Sega collaborated on the Dreamcast. It’s actually somewhat compatible with Dreamcast games but MS never wanted to allow that feature.
Also the Duke is the only comfortable controller I have ever used.
The Dreamcast controller is ugly as sin but surprisingly comfortable to hold. It must have the widest delta between looks and ergonomics of any controller.
Just completed the beginner gun safety course in Virginia, and it was fantastic! The course focused on fundamentals in a safe, supportive environment—covering firearm safety, grip, sight alignment, trigger control, and stance. Hands-on range time under certified instructors really builds confidence and accuracy. Perfect for first-time shooters or anyone refreshing skills. By the way, while I was exploring training options, I also found resources for Cheap Phd Thesis Help—helpful for balancing studies and hobbies!

This exquisite jewellery piece highlights the brilliance of diamonds with a design that stands out in any setting — a perfect expression of luxury craftsmanship in the heart of Dubai
A diamond ring of this caliber is more than a piece of jewelry, it’s a work of art.

Every facet reflects elegance, sophistication, and the kind of luxury that speaks without needing to be explained. This is the type of ring that elevates every moment, capturing both beauty and emotion in a single, breathtaking design.
I remember my first run of Platinum. I was sitting in the car when i beat it. Congrats on the completion, idk about you but i struggled really with that last fight.
The fact that you get locked into combat as soon as you step into the room with her (unlike all the elite four) nearly completely fucked me over, but fortunately I was able to stall and item spam all my Pokémon back to full health 😅
I tend to really like building teams that can beat stuff a lot stronger than me, so curse on spirit tomb, toxic on toxicroak, and gastrodon and bastiodon to wall did a lot of work 😅 I think I used curse to beat like three of her strongest Pokémon lol. Its such a dumb move, I love it so much.
It was definitely hard though, and item spam is kind of a cheesy way to beat stuff
You did a lot better than I did building your team lol. I just built my team based off of what I thought looked cool. I think I had a Torterra, Chime-Cho, Gardevoir, Vaporeon, and a couple that I’d cycle in and out
Honestly I largely did too, I pick my favorite designs from each gen and make a team with them, but it worked out okay! I considered chimecho but I mostly just adore chingling and it’s way too weak to battle with. I also considered using trash wormadan; steel and bug are my favorite types, but it’s not that compelling of a design, and it’s not very good 😅. I’d love to include it on a team someday though
This is a good point. Another point I saw in an argument in the trailer comments. One person said there’s no way a generic ganger from a no-name faction would be able to hold a candle to the endless hordes and monstrosities crawling around Tertium. The counterpoint, which I really liked, said that if anyone there could stand against them, and be free of Chaotic influence, the Inquisition would be quite keen to bring them into the fold. A cool way to look at it.
Admittedly I’m not versed in 40k lore at all, so as for lore fitment I got no clue. I’m just going by vibes. Former prisoners in the grinder is the gist I’m getting about who I’m playing. (I’m guessing the arbites class are disposable inquisition people)
For me i just really don’t like the madmax style anarchy aesthetic, darktide wholesale appeals less to me than vermintide did on multiple levels even though its mechanically more balanced and fulfilling. I’m sure the new class will be fun to actually play, the game design team generally doesn’t disapoint.
Being able to take multiple of the same class is also nice. One thing that was annoying in vermintide is if you’re playing with friends and two or more people want to play the same character (Bardin and Saltzpyre were common for us).
Drayano made a series of rom hacks for pokemon that, to be frank, are better than the originals. Would highly recommend if you’re interested in adding a little spice to your next game
This is my first playthrough with most of these games, so I’m tending to pick stuff thats very vanilla+ or just focused on quality of life, to cut down on some of the tedium and frustration that Pokémon often comes with
I’m not sure if I’ve maybe played one of his hacks so far, but I wish he had patches that didn’t make the difficulty changes and stuff if I don’t want them, I think he usually hasn’t had that as an option
I still need to sit down and investigate what if any ROM hacks I might wanna pick for gen 5, his will be one I take a look at. Plus I need to go double check which games I was gonna play, I think I was planning black and white 2, but have to go look stuff up and ask my friend who’s a huge Pokémon nerd her thoughts
(I nearly broke my run with a cheat to give myself max TMs at the end cause I think the game is better when you can play with designing your team- the cheat overwrote all of my HMs without me realizing, and I deleted waterfall off my Pokémon who knew it. Off the top of her head she was just like “oh seaking learns it by level up at 40 if that helps”, I was so glad I mentioned to her I might have fucked myself over completely on a whim while texting lol. So I have a seaking named escalator now 😌)
It’s true that noat of his romhacks are at the very least slightly harder than their original counterparts, but the one I’d still recommend is sacred gold/storm silver
My sense of difficulty is a bit skewed as I tend to mainly do hardcore nuzlockes, but I recently played through storm silver normally and it was a blast. The gym leaders needed a bit more thought when fighting as each of their pokemon were more powerful, but my ragtag group of 6 I ran with only ever failed once in the whole playthrough, and that was against the elite 4 (so somewhat expected)
