Installed Decky LSFG-VK on the steamdeck recently, so I’ve been going around my library testing different games.
Played about 20 hours of starfield till i got to neon, varying between 80-100+ fps outside of a few areas like new atlantis that would choke my NV3080 as well. Went into a club and was reminded why I abandoned the game in the first place. It wasn’t the poor optimization or the recycled gameplay. It was the fact that the game felt like there were no consequences, generic and hollow with absolutely no meaningful innovation. I really wanted to like it.
Moved on to Shadow of Mordor. Been having a blast.
I have been playing a load of Abiotic Factor, It sits on the sweet spot between story and fun for me, Constant new mechanics, always the feeling that I am sneaking in a better way to do the thing. Game kinda Feels like Valheim got cuddley with HalfLife.
I’ve played that before, but have they removed/made players able to reduce frequency of appearance or outright stop the annoying moaning monster from the lab zone yet? I’m a solo player and it was a creepy encounter the first 5 times and then just an annoying interruption, and it was so constant and inescapable that it made me stop playing.
From the title I was thinking of, like, Grognak’s Adventure inside of Fallout 4.
But from the body text… Yeah, I don’t really do that. I am usually pretty annoyed by how many servers for games I want to play aren’t actually playing the game itself, but their own game inside the game and making up their own rules. Which is totally fine, but it should advertise it somehow or not even be public as many of these groups just kick randos out anyway.
I do like a lot of mods that were inspired by these games within games tho. ARMA Life only exists because people were already trying to play the normal game that way, and with the mod the rules can be more easily enforced through scripts instead of requiring hands-on management from an admin.
We used to play a “serial killer” game in Red Dead Redemption. The goal is to kidnap a woman without getting seen by anyone. Its actually a lot harder than you would think because female NPCs are RARELY unescorted in the game. It opens up an element of planning and stealth that you (or at least I) don’t usually use in that game.
Playing a giant melee on super Smash Brothers Melee with super mushrooms on high spawn while using the biggest characters on the game and watch level is fun. I think it breaks the core game enough to qualify as unintended.
I wrote a scripts that automates artillery for me in Hell Let Loose. It uses a webste that does the calculation. Providing degree and elevation. I input the target on the website, then scrape that data and use computer vision to auto adjust the gun to that position, load then fire. I can saturate an area, or just fire shots on target. It works about 60% of the time because the OCR (Optical character recognition) isn’t super reliable. So it often is worse and slower than had I not. I did it last week so until then I had never cheated. Tomorrow they are releasing an updated that overhauls artillery, so I’ll have more work todo. I’ll probably just let it die xD
I was getting ready to rant until you mentioned Terraria. Then I read the last line of your post.
Shoot, if I’m playing against the computer I use the game the way I want. It’s not cheating if your opponent is non-sentient.
I especially feel that way in games where ridiculous stuff happens at random (e.g. Rimworld). If I’m 2h into building a new colony and somehow get wiped out by 1 rabid squirrel, I curse, laugh my ass off for a minute, then load an autosave.
When an aspect of a game is ass (usually grinding, and I tend to be tolerant), even if I try to engage with it. Or if I’m about to drop the game anyway and cheats means seeing an ending. Last time I did was Megaman ZX, the game was already tedious and expects you to then also do a boss rush with limited ways to recover between fights, so I cheated infinite lives to get it over with.
