I don’t know if you already know this, but your phrasing made me think you don’t:
Supergiant Games are known for Bastion… and more recently, for Hades :P So it makes sense that the style reminds you of that, because Transistor precedes Hades.
I’ve been messing around with a “headless” Dirtywave M8 on my Steamdeck… best bit of money I’ve spent in a long time. Even had a buddy print me a Gameboy cartridge case for it with a clip-on cartridge slot for the deck. Did my first ever jungle noodlings with the Amen break… having a great time!
I’ve actually got a trio of DMG-01s that I grabbed in Japan a few years back… slapped in some RCA and backlight mods in and then quickly lost interest because my eyes just aren’t good enough to deal with those screens. I thought LSDj and the crusty old Gameboy sound chips were really freaking cool… but I’m happy to say the M8 blows LSDj out of the water on features and QoL, and I can stare at my Steamdeck screen all night!
Sadly the price of Japanese consoles went up a heap over Covid, though you can still get some amazing deals with proxy bidding and buying services, if you take your time!
No haven’t seen GBOperator before… that’s really cool! Perhaps a bit redundant for LSDj but very cool for gaming.
I like this whole idea of hardware attachments for the Steamdeck. Hopefully Valve will add some sort of standardised mounting points on future iterations so we don’t have to rely on flimsy printed clip-on bits so much… I reckon a VESA mount could be good!
I love these posts, but I need to make a bug report for the Boost app, because for some reason these posts are unreadable in that app. Scrolling is just way to sluggish. Not sure if it’s the length, or number of images.
Drat! I had users complain last time about Boost. It has to be the amount of images / GIF inclusion I have in these, but using Thunder and Jerboa, I see zero slow-down, so it has to be specific to Boost!
I finished the Siege of Dragonspear and even Black Pits expansions of Baldur’s Gate 1, and have now started Baldur’s Gate 2 Shadows of Amn.
I’m not far in yet (chapter two) but already get the feeling this is much deeper and has many more options than the first game - which was already quite good. I think I’m going to like this one.
Enjoy it! BG2 is still my favourite in the series, even having played BG3. Savour ever line David Warner utters as Irenicus, there have been few performances so perfect in a video game even all these years later.
For me I stopped playing because the switch is a horrifically uncomfortable console that can barely render the game at a playable frame rate, let alone a good one
I’m reading online that the game doesn’t even maintain 30 FPS on the switch in docked mode. That’s kind of crazy for a console game released in 2023. I get that it’s a cheaper console, but at some point, they need to bite the bullet and just manufacture something with better hardware. No wonder people are trying their hardest to emulate the switch.
System Shock 2. I’m basically also holding off on playing the SS1 remake until I hear official confirmation that the sequel is getting the same treatment.
The sequel is just getting a Remaster, not a Remake. SS1 was a full remake, SS2 is just a remaster. No idea if they plan on giving it the SS1 treatment, and I don’t really care as long as multiplayer works in the remaster.
Legacy of Kain: Defiance. They got actual stage actors and real acting veterans to voice a lot of the major roles in that game. It feels like you’re playing through some epic dark fantasy movie because of it.
Also, it may sound weird, but some of the audio logs in Prototype 2 actually fucked me up because they did such an amazing job. The one that’s stuck with me the most is one you can find fairly early on in the game, where a mom is trying to stop a government soldier from shooting her son because he’s nonverbal (and therefore can’t “prove” he’s not infected), and it’s absolutely gut wrenching. I had to stop playing for a few minutes after I heard because it was so intense. Here’s the recording if any of you were curious.
What do you think about the game overall so far? My girlfriend loves AC, especially Origins and Odyssey, but was pretty disappointed in Valhalla and kind of meh about Mirage.
It’s a step in the right direction for sure compared to Valhalla. It simplified the bloat down, and it feels like there’s actually parkour now. I’m afraid I can’t compare it to mirage though as I haven’t played it yet.
I’d say if they liked origins though they’ll like this though. It reminds me a lot of origins, just with a bit of the grinding taken out
Mogę zasugerować stronę “Open-Source Alternative”. W ustawieniach da się zaznaczyć filtry “alternatives to [np. Google]” i znajdziecie tam masę propozycji. Warto promować takie rozwiązania w ramach kolektywów, zadaniowych grup studenckich etc.
Jeśli chodzi o MS Office, to ja przerzuciłem się na darmowe Libre Office i jestem usatysfakcjonowany c;
No tak, to na poziomie instytucjonalnym wydaje się trudne do osiągnięcia. Kojarzę inicjatywę, trochę pokrewną z omawianym tematem, “Fedigov”, czyli grupa promująca wykorzystanie Fediversum dla stron samorządów. Już przynajmniej dwie gminy weszły na fedi - Stary Sącz (@gmina) i Brwinów (@brwinow). Myślę, że taka sama grupa lobbująca za odejściem od MS na uczelniach by się przydała.
I got hit on a couple times in Starcraft 2 of all games just because I had a feminine-sounding username. I literally got “damn girl, look at that MMR” once and it’s so funny.
