MrGerrit, do gaming w Sea of Stars (2023) review thread

Got my steam and switch codes in my email box and the physical is on the way. Can’t wait to get home and start playing! I’m so hyped right now!

I’d still really like a better story evaluation than a nostalgic “It’S jUsT likE cHrOnO tRIggEr. REmemBer ChRonO trIGGer? MaN tHaT wAs a gREat gAme.”

Look, I played that game. Combat was sometimes fun. Music was great. Story did not live up to modern standards. I have other JRPG memories that are more about having a unique and impactful story, and seeing their characters grow, than about being a JRPG.

Honestly, anytime we review new games, I’d almost rather the analysis start with what the game did well on its own invention. Even allow for the possibility it’s going to be better than a classic.

I don’t have an Xbox, but that’s very kind of you, OP. Well done whomever gets it.

nitefox,

Yeah, got the WD C50 which included the code but I couldn’t redeem it

loboaureo, do games w Why do modern strategy games hate the grid?

Bg3 it’s not an strategy game, it’s and RPG, in fact based in the trrpg rules of d&d 5

Also BG1 and 2, weren’t grided, so it’s not like they doing it to “modernize” the game.

I really enjoyed all xcoms (from the msdos first games, so many hours wasted with xcom apocalypse…) But also enjoyed al bg (including not MMO Neverwinter, icewind Dale, etc)

Simply, it’s not one of these games.

Ultraviolet,

5e rules explicitly refer to spaces on a grid and had to be changed in several ways to work in a gridless setting.

I believe that’s officially a variant rule. The system itself works fine without a grid. It can be done completely in the theater of the mind.

The grid is just commonly used because it simplifies movement and positioning greatly.

Zahille7,

Right? I only played like a campaign and a half of 5e, but I specifically remember the 5’ spaced grids.

I wanted to link to it, but I just noticed this comment from admin. Seems like even base64-encoded links are out of question then.

Maybe this could do: pastebin.com/immXsYpF

I learned about this title too late to back the Kickstarter but absolutely loved The Messenger and SoS demo. I am very miffed that LRG distributed the KS but other physicals are being released by iam8bit. I'm currently waiting on Eastward CE that I purchased last July through iam8bit and they keep pushing the release back. They are claiming an early Q1 2024 release for this title but I'm VERY sceptical of that date.

Keeboy,

lustrum,

Ah crap, sorry misread your title. It’s live.

Hundun, do gaming w Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of August 27th

Trying to get into Baldurs Gate 3. Never played the original games, never played D&D, and this is the first hardcore RPG of this sort I’ve played in awhile.

It is a bit of a struggle - the game is intimidatingly big and deep. I am also having troubles wrapping my head around the battle systems, and the random skill checks really don’t make much sense to me (am I expected to save scam in this game?)

But all that seems to be a question of habit. I went into the game for the joy of exploration and discovery, and I hope to lose myself in it very soon.

Ellvix,

Nice! I’m not too far off that, but I have a touch of experience with DnD and played the first Divinity game for a few hours (before losing interest). REALLY enjoying BG3 so far. It’s miles beyond that first game, which was a bit jenky and not as well written.

Save scumming required? no not at all. It’s a DnD style game, so the way the quests play out will change but barring a full party wipe you shouldn’t need to reload much. But do I save scum to get better roles so I can loot the chest? absolutely.

GamesRevolution, do piracy w Whats your preferred codec?
@GamesRevolution@programming.dev avatar

I really love AV1, it’s very small in file size and it’s completely free, meaning that it should play anywhere were it was implemented

hyper,

Are there scene releases that are encoded in AV1?

ruben,
@ruben@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

There are a moderate amount of tightly connected releasers who encode and release AV1. Just add av1 to any search on 1337x and you can find them.

kaya,
@kaya@eviltoast.org avatar

Wish AV1 was more widely used, better licensing than x265 while same compression afaik

LufyCZ,

It’s open, so no licensing.

Also, compression-wise, it’s either equal or better from what I’ve seen

s. to, you may need to use the IP so go over Aniworld. to and use their directory. Its streaming.

d4sm4dd1n, do piracy w What's the best way to rip music off Spotify so that I can store it on my HDD?

I found this tool www.sidify.de a while ago. They have a paid solution, which you could pirate a crack for on a site of your choice. Maybe not the best solution, but it downloads the Tracks/Playlists/Albums by recording the audio and adding all the metadata.
