network_switch, do gaming w Linux users: Are we over-reliant on Steam?

They’ll streamline better over time. These open source WINE frontends/orchestrators may as well have 2 eras, before and after Proton. Before Proton they had little developer interest so development was slow. After Proton, influx of users and more developers interest in working on open source Linux gaming tools and Lutris rapidly got better and Heroic popped up. PlayOnLinux got left to historic obscurity in the history of Linux gaming

So I’m not concerned about Steam reliance. Everything outside of Steam is so much easier because of Valves open source contribution and the growth of the community. Pretty much because of Valve, Lutris/Heroic/etc became better at a faster pace and will continue getting because of what Steam did for Linux gaming in the past decade

Kovukono, do games w So is Kingdom Hearts 3 _bad_ or just the normal cringe of Kingdom Hearts?

KH3 is bad. If I wanted to rank the main games, it’d be KH2, KH1 Remastered, KH1 with the original terrible camera and platforming, and then KH3. It’s not functionally broken, but it’s such a disappointment.

The story is a hot mess because you need to play Birth By Sleep to know who Aqua is, and KH 0.2 to figure out how she got to KH3, Dream Drop Distance to know how Sora and Riku got there (which also builds off KH:coded) and to understand why you’re fighting Organization XIII again after you defeated them entirely in 2 and why there’s multiple versions of the big bad, and KH X (the Greek letter pronounced “key”) to know what the hell a random thing that shows up toward the end of the game is. And I’m probably forgetting stuff. I hadn’t played everything, and by the end, I was just sitting back and saying “Yeah, that’s another thing that didn’t make any sense” for about every story point.

The attractions have no place in combat. They make it insanely easy, and I decided to turn them off entirely after I beat a boss just by juggling it on a pendulum ride. The Disney worlds kind of feel bare bones despite their size. It’s pretty, but it’s also empty.

I wanted to love this game so, so much, but they had to cover over a decade of lore because the creator couldn’t finish FFXV, and it’s not brought together in any really coherent or satisfying way. The combat managed to be a step down from KH2. I finished the game, and I was just frustrated because it just was not good.

All that said, for buying it, this game is supposed to tie up all the endings started in the other games. I’d just grab 1.5+2.5, and you’ll still have a good chunk of content if you’ve only played the main games. But if you also want to grab 2.8, buying the bundle is just cheaper.

Well when the choice is anti consumer, too fucking bad.

Honestly who cares. Stop buying AAA slop and support indies.

WorldsDumbestMan,

Only open-sourced, homebrewed, and single-person is what we need!

alsimoneau,

10 people or less.

Captain of Industry is a gem with a 4 person team Risk of Rain was 2, expanded to 3

That’s still at a human scale.

Ahh, backpedaling to “defending creators” - that’s a bold move, Cotton.

I would probably be unable to buy a PC or console ever again.

Shit dude, that’s rough
If I may ask, what happened?

Otherwise, no nearby gaming cafés? They’re usually reasonably priced

darkguyman,

I haven’t heard of those but I don’t think there’s any nearby anyway.

TheFrogThatFlies, do games w The EU initiative for Stop Killing Games has reached the goal of 1 million signatures!!

Yay! I’m one in a million!

Can we move for a Stop Killing People now!? :)

cecilkorik,

That's definitely a stretch goal. But at least if we can start by stopping them from killing something innocuous like games it shows that we still maybe have some power over them.

W3dd1e, do gaming w Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone

Already up to 767K. It’s within reach.

I don’t live in the EU, but I’m keeping an eye on it. Fingers crossed!

Yesterday we saw the biggest increase in signatures in a single day, even compared to the start of the initiative.

@ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org avatar

Unfortunately, some signatures will be invalidated because people make mistakes or are assholes so it’s best to aim for 120%.

knokelmaat,

You mean 811K ;). At this rate it will only take a few more days!

princessnorah,

904k now!

BlameTheAntifa, do games w Hesitating getting a Switch 2 (1st game console in 15 years)...

Get a Steam Deck. The existence of Family Sharing alone makes it a much better choice for portable family gaming.

Nintendo has numerous major anti-consumer problems, from game ownership, to hardware quality and longevity, to their abusive behavior towards fans, consumers, and competitors. It’s not worth it, there are better options.

Shayeta,

And you can emulate any nintendo game you want.

    Road_Warrior_10,

    Video was taken down after people reporting it. Didn’t fake anything

    Dremor,
    @Dremor@lemmy.world avatar

    That’s indeed possible, but hard to prove unless you give an archived proof (wayback machine, etc.). AI made creating fake screenshot trivial, so I can’t blame anyone for thinking you may have faked it.

    Tolstoy, (edited )
    @Tolstoy@lemmy.world avatar

    I checked the named YouTube channel a few minutes after the first comment about this topic popped up and it didn’t have any recent upload, only older ones about other games… So yeah… Just my 2 cents, but the whole post was really suspicious.

    Edit: I still wish you good luck with the game and hope your goals will met

    Road_Warrior_10,

    What? On which post? I never used those words here. Can you give me a source

    If my game is not your cup of tea, that’s okay but lying about me is where I have to stand up for myself. I have messaged the mod ask them what’s this all about. Waiting for an answer, I’m pretty sure I’ve never traded those kinds of insulsts with anyone here. If you know a way to source what you’re saying please post it, I don’t mind. If not, apologize and delete your comment.

    tanisnikana,

    Goddammit, I got you confused with MITM0. My apologies.

    You’re the one who posted the fake fitgirl repack screenshot, instead of doing honest advertising (which, admittedly, you’re doing now, so good on you, I suppose).

    But don’t go pulling my personal info from other communities about sensitive people. :/

    Road_Warrior_10,

    Like I said, I never traded insults with anyone. Not my style and also the screenshot is not fake, that was real, the dude deleted all of his pirating videos after people reported them. Maybe you can check them out with wayback machine or something. Still waiting for that apology too because by now I hope you realized I’m not into lying

    Dremor,
    @Dremor@lemmy.world avatar

    I checked his modlog, and found no such thing, at least on LW. Care to give a link as proof ?

    tanisnikana,

    I’m an idiot and got him confused with MITM0, I’m sorry.
