jinarched, do gaming w The winner of every difficulty comparison
@jinarched@lemm.ee avatar
ghen,

This was certainly the hardest part of the game due to the controls, but it still pales in comparison to actually difficult games of the era that were designed to take quarters first, provide gameplay later

jinarched,
@jinarched@lemm.ee avatar

Oh yeah, for sure. Ghosts’n Goblins comes to mind.

setsneedtofeed, do games w People seem to really dislike Destiny 2. Why haven't they ended it yet?
@setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world avatar

Probably because it makes a ton of money. The opinions of people who post online represent a small fraction of people who play games.

CodingCarpenter,

This is very true. I play less than I used to but I’m still in a very active clan and I still drop money occasionally hun pretty things from the store or DLC items

And most of those people keep playing anyway lol

xavier666,

4000 hours on record

Review: I spent over $500 worth of DLC on this game but I hate it! They never implemented the features community asked for.

Devs: And we love you for that!

silverchase, do games w Day 38 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (Minecraft 1.5)
@silverchase@sh.itjust.works avatar

This could have been Beta 1.8 and no one would have been able to tell.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I nearly went for one of the Betas, but my computer was having issues with the Beta tried for some reason.

missphant,

If you ever wanna try again you could give betacraft launcher a try, it’s specifically for playing alpha/beta versions.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Briefly skimmed the page but I saw a .Jar version. Is that a Java build to run in a JVM or for something else entirely?

missphant,

The launcher is written in Java so that’s the universal binary unlike the other platform specific ones. Just like the (very) old original Minecraft launcher.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Ah. That works out great then. Im on steam deck and get the feeling Proton wouldn’t play nice with a Minecraft launcher

arudesalad,

There’s also an .exe you could use if you’re on windows

lostme,

I wanted to nerd out, but to be sure i checked every thing i thought of. I remember that hunger was introduced in beta 1.8, but, as it turns out, so were glass panes, experience, and the new porkchop texture. And the softer cobblestone texture was introduced in beta 1.7

Frustrated, i examined the image closer and spotted some gravel in the distance with the texture that came way after beta 1.8

I concede that i wouldn’t have noticed it, but it’s not impossible >:]

silverchase,
@silverchase@sh.itjust.works avatar

Good catch with the gravel texture! I didn’t notice it in the back. On the topic of textures, I know there was a complete but very subtle texture overhaul sometime after 1.0, but I can’t tell if this is before or after that change unless I reference the changed textures side by side.

LouNeko, do games w New Starfield free update added a ground vehicle

I would love to get a code break down and see how Bethesda spaghetti recoded the Skyrim horse mechanic into a vehicle.

Aggravationstation, do gaming w I even remember taking batteries from a smoke detector once.

I think this is why smoke detectors take 9-volt batteries now.

DannyMac,

Haven’t they always taken 9v?

Fredy1422,

they have, although some do take AA or AAA batteries but its very uncommon. some especially carbon monixide dectectors have internal batteries that require replacement.

variants,

We just bought new smoke detectors and they take AA, I bought a 9v just out of assumption and got home and was blown away

GladiusB,
@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

9v are just two AAs wrapped together. So not surprised.

randombullet,

Eh not quite. AA are 1.5v so two would only be 3v.

You might be thinking of the big 6v lantern batteries. They’re usually 4 x 1.5v cells together.

GladiusB,
@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

I thought I watched some YouTube video where they linked them and it worked. But who knows how accurate the numbers were. I guess not since you know.

bitchkat,

Get the ones with the built in 10 year battery. Smoke and CO2 combo.

A_Very_Big_Fan,

Unrelated but a few days ago I found out you’re not supposed to stick two 9v’s together when I burnt the shit outta my fingertips :3

BradleyUffner,

Yeah… That’s basically creating a short circuit. Don’t do that.

Lath, do games w "PSN isn't supported in my country. What do I do?" Arrowhead CEO: "I don't know"

To be fair to them, I don't know either.

invertedspear, do gaming w I miss manuals...

Why are there clips for a manual yet never a manual or even an info card? Seems like this started in the PS3/360/Wii generation.

Godort,

Some games come with an insert or a manual, but it’s rare.

And it’s cheaper to have only one case design rather than two

TootSweet,

Yeah, as Godort said, some games do come with manuals. The Knights of the Old Republic (the first one) port to the Switch is one example. (Presumably KOTOR II as well.)

FlihpFlorp, do gaming w Still one of the cleverest moments in gaming history

OOTL here probably before my time mind explaining?

Stamets,
@Stamets@lemmy.world avatar

In the first Metal Gear Solid there was a character named Psycho Mantis who had a lot of psychic/mind reading gimmicks. One such way of doing so was to input read everything from your controller and blocking all of your attacks. Another way was reading your memory card and talking about the games you play, name dropping them specifically and talking about genres. All of that is really clever on its own but to get around his input reading you had to plug the controller into the second player slot as he wasn’t able to read that “mind”.

state_electrician,

He also commented on that, just nicely done overall.

FlihpFlorp,

That is really cool

Hazmatastic,

In addition to what the other user said, at one point he makes it so only Player 2 can control your character, so you either needed to run to the console to switch your controller port or pick up a second controller if you had one on standby.

He also tries to make you think your console shut off. Old tvs commonly used blue/green/black screens that said the name of the selected input port at the top, like VIDEO 2. This fight had a part where a blue screen came up that said HIDEO 2 at the top, a nod to the creator Hideo Kojima. Many players thought their consoles turned off and tried to reboot them… effectively erasing unsaved data. It only lasted a few seconds though, so most people realized before it was too late.

He also mind controls your companion, but that’s a bit more common to see.

Tier1BuildABear, do gaming w Oh trust me. I know your frustration better than you do.
@Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world avatar

If you wanted everything in the video game to mimic your real life, just go outside. Video games have always existed as an escape, to put ourselves into a situation we’d normally never find ourselves in, to live a life we can’t in the real world. If pretending to be gay for a few hours threatens your sexuality in a way that pretending to be a superhero for a few hours doesn’t threaten your abilities, maybe that says more about your sexuality than it does about the game?

MeanEYE, do gaming w Oh trust me. I know your frustration better than you do.
@MeanEYE@lemmy.world avatar

So many non-plumber people who were forced to play as plumber in Super Mario games. So many humans were forced to play as undead and orcs in WoW. Imagine the torture!!!

query,

Well, Super Mario and WoW are opposites in how many options you have. Forsaken is one of the few I never played.

Although for fantasy games, some people don’t want to play humans at all, because they’re too relatable.

Oh, the game where you could choose between the furry-suiter plumber, or his occasionally crossdressing brother. Thats pretty diverse, right?
