It’s called rage batting for a reason.

leisesprecher,

Just to play devil’s advocate: Mario is without a doubt the oldest recognizable character that still has some modern appearances. You can’t really take pong and some shitty mobile game as a comparison.

HeyJoe,

I think Pac Man is the oldest, but only by a year.

arkthos,

It gets very blurry in the early days of video games. Ahoy made a great video about just that, actually: m.youtube.com/watch?v=uHQ4WCU1WQc&pp=ygUYYWhveSBl…

Basically, there’s earlier games than pacman, but what actually constitutes a video game starts to become a much less trivial question.

Funny because it’s NES (1983/85) Mario over a N64 (1996/97) controller. Idiots

RightHandOfIkaros,

I guarantee you that N64 controller is the wireless reissue for the Nintendo Switch and not a real genuine N64 controller that plugs into an N64.

Bonesince1997,

Ah geez, it’s worse lol

Played this years ago but couldn’t quite get into it. Maybe I should try it again to see if it clicks

It’s much better with friends imo. Me and the friend in this picture went to pick up a generator from an airstrip and it was forecast to snow. I crashed the car. So we were racing while dragging the generator for miles to get back to our base before it started snowing.

Try doing it in real time and then talk to me about it.

Kids man… I remember back in the day being asked to review a gaming site a young’un was trying to get off the ground and I had to correct them that Mario was NOT created by Atari and man, they were ADAMANT.

Their evidence?

RightHandOfIkaros,

Its even funnier because Nintendo’s brand name is printed three times on that cartridge.

SpaceNoodle,

Yeah but it says Atari twice

RightHandOfIkaros,

It says Atari also 3 times. Also Sears.

jordanlund,
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, Sears had their own licensed knock off of the Atari 2600.

Todd_cross,

And Coleco

“Donkey Kong by Nintendo”

This won’t stop me because I can’t read.

Bonesince1997,

But what about Green Mario??

I usually don’t like sharing 2D games because they’re hard to make look presentable

How so? I don’t see the problem.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I just personally prefer taking much more cinematic and landscape shots. It’s harder to get those with 2D. Though someone pointed out that Zomboid isn’t 2D, so I guess my point is kind of null and void now

Love this game! Currently waiting on Build 42 to release so I can hop back in.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

The wait for build 42 is agonizing. I have major respect though for Indie Stone for keeping up on the game for all these years. I know the game gets occasionally bashed for being EA, but it feels like they care with each update (and the public roadmap to release helps too)

AsudoxDev, do games w Day 50 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots

Respect to you. You’ve been posting your games for over a month every day. I would give up after a week.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I honestly didn’t expect to get this far. I’m hoping to make it to 100 next. After that maybe 150

AsudoxDev,

Good luck. Your posts, at least, seem to be the only active interacted ones in this community.

@HollowNaught@lemmy.world avatar

I have a friend who was really trying to convince me to preorder this garbage

Same guy who refuses to play older games because they “look bad”

christov, do games w Day 50 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots

Amazing game. I need to play more of this. Love your daily screenshots! Keep em coming!

Eyck_of_denesle, do games w Day 50 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots

The game didn’t look this good the last time I played. Need to get back on it someday.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Idk if you’ve been following the game, but we’re about to get Build 42, which includes Weapon Forging, Skyscrapers, and Livestock. It’s really exciting.

Eyck_of_denesle,

Skyscrapers and livestock sound exciting. I would love to jump into this with my friends but we are still playing raft. We started procrastinating in a fkn video game lmao. You got any tips for us to finish games?

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Lmao. Me and my friend are in the same boat. The only games I can think of off the top of my head that we’ve beaten is Halo CE and ODST on Legendary. We just kind of had to buckle down and say “okay, we’re going to play through this for the next week, until we beat this”. Besides that though I don’t think we’ve beaten much, or the games we play don’t have a defined “ending” really.

PunchingWood, do games w Day 50 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots

Can’t get my friends to ever play this, because they say “it looks like the Sims”. Completely ignoring the insane amount of depth this game has.

Sadly not really a game I wanted to play solo much.

Dagnet,

Same. The bane of my existence is that the few gamer friends I got only play online board games together, I need friends to play my co-op stuff with

ChicoSuave,

Zomboid started as a Sims mod that has taken on its own world and systems. Imagine the Sims, but a zombie simulator with very detailed and in depth health and healing, food and drink cook, crafting, driving, etc.

They aren’t wrong that it looks like the Sims, but that also doesn’t make it easy or boring.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I only have one friend who will really play with me, so I get what you mean. I added the NPC mod, and that helped a little, but damn nothing compares to having an actual group to play with.

ayyy great game✨

I’ve probably sunk several years into this

Unforeseen,

Me too, over 1400 hours. I use a lot of mods. I take a break for a year or more at a time and then get hooked again. I’m trying to wait for the NPC update until I do again
