Hubi, do games w Weekly what have you been playing discussion - week of September, 4, 2023

I’ve started a second playthrough of Kingdom Come Deliverance and really enjoying it so far. I recently upgraded my PC and expected to be able to play it on “Ultra” settings but I’m still stuck with 40-70 FPS on high. The game is beautiful but it’s also horribly optimized lol

manapropos,

Jank aside, that’s one of the best games I’ve ever played. I have high hopes for the sequel

Hubi,

Absolutely, me too!

I believe turning the physics settings down help the framerate a lot.

Hubi,

Thanks for the tip!

Not the funniest I have played, but I definitely found it funny and fun.

Trine 5 and En Garde!. Both on 'Deck.

Trine 5 is more of the same, which is good as I’m pretty fond of their take on ‘the same’ and En Garde! Is a delightful little game that combines Sekiro’s combat and Fables charm.

I’m guessing not, but in the offchance you’re using one of the newer Chromecast with Google TV there is a Jellyfin app you can install

Idk if lucky patcher still exists, but i used it for a while.

If its an online game there’s not much to do.

If its an offline game that shows ads when you’re connected to the internet, then you can install a private local vpn like Tracker Control to specifically disable internet access to that app.

Invizible Pro also works iirc, but that might be overkill for your purposes.

Private DNS like NextDNS others didn’t work correctly for me but YMMV

Disable internet connection. Try netguard or something.

I use a PiHole at home, combined with a Wireguard server, so my phones route all traffic through my home network, even when I’m out and about.

This is how I do it. Haven’t seen an in-app ad for a very long time.

atlasraven31,

That’s very clever.

How to setup a pihole in router? I’m planning on getting a new connection

Plex will cast to a Chromecast with subtitles. It will also fetch them if you don’t have an SRT file in the folder of your video with the same name. Lenguages is also selectable at the time of fetch. I do not pay for pro. Nonetheless, I have not tried jellyfin and cannot tell you if it is possible there or not. My guess is it should.

Try Blokada 5. It sets up a local vpn inside your phone and blocks all the ads and trackers. The application is free and open source. Don’t download it from the play store as it downloads version 6, which requires a subscription and does cloud stuff (version 5 instead works locally)

github.com/blokadaorg/five-android

Enjoy

thisisnotcoincedence,

This right here, I’ve been using Blokada for the last few years and it stays on permanently. My biggest gripe is that a certain social media website (starting with an R) which we shall not name have their own built in ad platform which Blokada is useless against other than that it’s perfect.

Personally I've had some issues with ads getting through 5 on a few devices. Version 4 always works in those cases, even though it's a bit less efficient (apparently).

Separate of that it also works with VPN Tunnel, which is great for getting around cell providers that block tethering.

Paper Mario. I actually have the original game and the N64 to play it, but play on the switch instead. I really enjoy it. I also tried Palia on PC, but it doesn’t feel right.

Prox,

Oh damn, is this included as an NSO Expansion Pass game??

greencookie,

Yes!

I almost can’t believe the lack of Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People in this thread.

Just recently played A Hat in Time. We’re never told, but every detail points at this being the fantasy adventures of a little girl with A LOT in common with Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes, an overabundance of imagination and hyperactivity. Charming and funny (well, save for Queen Vanessa, which I feel was instead a masterpiece in ambience). Loved it, gotta try the DLC. Just be ready for hard platforming at many places.

Some OSes allow per app firewall, so the easiest way would be to disable network connection for that app in the android settings.

Conker’s Bad Fur Day.

First off, Rare had a reputation for good games, but they were cute, child friendly games. Conker was even a cute character with child friendly games. Then they made this… thing, which starts with Conker hungover from a night drinking and quickly descends into him fighting a giant poo monster. The game was rated R/18, which was crazy for Nintendo. The amount of little movie references everywhere was insane, also.

Those little French squirrels…

ezures,

Only seen bits of it, but it has the most hilarious opera song I have ever heard.
