I covered this on my own magazine. Let me tell you, it's really good. Virtual Boy games make a near-perfect transition to the 3DS, and you don't have to smash your face into a visor for the 3D effects. (You will still get eyestrain, though.) You can, technically, play it on a 2DS, but it's like drinking non-alcoholic beer... what's even the point?
They’re absolutely powering through the major version releases, good to see active development on an (only slightly hyperbolic) actually revolutionary project!
I was playing it before 1.0, it surprised me how fun Daggerfall can be after the initial dungeon since it’s so damn hard do die there, also tried to do character creation cheesing I read in the wiki but it didn’t work since they did fix the bugs lol.
I only stopped playing because since it wasn’t finished my main quest didn’t advance after 30 days in the route I was in. I recommend the DREAM mod to get some high quality textures.
Shame it’s a Unity project. I’d be worried for the developer if Unity ever decides to start charging fees per install or something equally bullshit again.
I think they rebuilt the game in Unity. I do know they say to not go with the one on GoG as it is outdated. I only learned about the whole thing yesterday.
And it’s moddable and stable and fixed all the bugs form the original.
Super fun for those of us who grew up playing it, and a great way to experience a genuinely better and more accessible version of daggerfall for new players.
No, there’s a mac version of retroarch. OpenEmu is a bit better in term of user interface.
And RetroArch has a history of harassing emulator devs, e.g. Stenzek who made Duckstation, were harassed by them until Stenzek went hiatus. IIRC, they might have harassed Near (developer of Snes9x), Near eventually killed themself.
Oh jeez, did some brief research and that is awful. The person in charge of Retroarch seems to be a greedy asshole, doesn’t properly credit other people’s code, and there’s direct IRC-logged evidence of abusive behavior towards emulator devs. Yikes. No wonder there are competing projects.
Time for me to never touch it again. I hear LaunchBox is a fine alternative but on my Switch I might just grab ARM builds of individual emulators; it would save time over the whole RA interface anyways.
A FOSS tag would be nice for those that care about that. Also, both Mindustry and C:DDA are missing their free tags. Overall, a good list and plenty new things that I was not previously aware of!
