Could use it as a recruiting tool the logging industry. It might be safer to play the game though…

PainInTheAES,

Nah make the game VR with a real chainsaw. Die in game, die irl

When you Nintendo switch dies, and you don’t pay them monthly subscription to backup your games to the cloud.

Fuck you Nintendo. Never switching back from my Steam Deck.

DreamySweet,

If you don’t want to pay, you should at least be able to save onto a SD card which could be transferred to another Switch or backed up on a PC. Though it wasn’t perfect, Sony had that back on the PSP.

derpgon,

Sadly, that would mean save duplication would be possible - which is a huge no-go for the Switch for some godforsaken reason. Fuck Nintendo, sold my account, got the Deck, and now my data is backed up instantly, for “free” (price included in the 30% fee). Not like it’s more than a fre hundred KBs per game anyway.

DreamySweet,

You can play most games with Ryujinx or Yuzu anyway.

I love how the solution to all the issues most users have with the physical Switch are solved through emulation, and Nintendo, instead of simply giving people these features they want (which are entirely software dependent not hardware dependent) they wanna incorporate Denovu to try and stop the emulation scene.

I don’t know how that is cheaper or easier than just, you know… Letting saves be moved to the SD card and making a better, more navigable and curated store.

DreamySweet,

My biggest issue is that I can’t use it to play the games on my nice monitor at 4k with my GuliKit controller with hall-effect sticks that never have drift issues. I’ll still buy the physical games to support the devs if they’re good but I’m not buying another Switch.

derpgon,

Also forgot to mention, you know what died inside the switch? The chip that is responsible for encrypting the data, which also held the key, which means rest of the HW was okay, but the chip was unsalvagable (tried both official and unofficial channels).

Wrench, do gaming w Remember to save often

Reminds me of Suikoden 2. One of the first PS1 titles I picked up. Didn’t even know I needed a memory card to save when I bought it. But my parents couldn’t take me to the store again for a few days, so I just played and kept it on overnight.

About half way through the game is a duel that is basically paper rock scissors. And game over if you lose.

I lost.

Why do you think F5 is on the keyboard?

SinJab0n,

Do I need to be always over the edge wondering if my game is gonna crash In the next minutes ?

No, that’s why I refused to play fallout 4 until some months later when it was fixed.

Legit dropped Nier:Automata after it auto failed me for taking the “wrong” path to a boss fight. Hadn’t saved for a while and didn’t feel like redoing all that progress because the game arbitrarily decided to kill me.

Years of computer graphics has taught me the utmost importance neurotic saving.

jjagaimo, do gaming w Remember to save often

When the game has a long annoying section and it stops you from saving afterwards followed by a decision that you really want to be able to undo

Oh wow it’s been a while since I played final fantasy.

First time I played Half Life. I was only using quick save and quick load. I fall off the platform in Xen I hit quick load, but instead pressed quick save. Now my only save is of me half way through a fall to my doom.

DreamySweet,

Almost anyone who has used an emulator has made a similar mistake with save states at some point.

What game are you playing without auto saves?

Baldurs Gate 3 you can go hours without an autosave triggering.

I've got a little autohotkey script that autosaves every 5 minutes if the BG3 window is open.

Unfortunately I have a PS5 so no autohotkey for me.

What MMOs out there using just a single button and not 10+ hot bars with 10 actions each?

RisingSwell,

Old school runescape, I only use mouse.

Eheran,

A mouse is not just more than 1 button, it also has the directional input for moving/looking around. Something that a key could never even replace.

RacerX, do gaming w Some people love it

If anyone has any recommendations on these I’m all ears.

Maultasche,

I’m not sure if it counts, but the Ace Attorney games are great and have a bit more interactivity than just reading.

Kolanaki,
!deleted6508 avatar

The best game I could describe as merely an interactive movie has been The Quarry. The game itself is pretty meh (but I’m not a big fan of these personally), however the movie part is amazing. It could easily be just a kick ass horror movie. And you can even play it that way with Movie Mode, where you pick the best outcome, the worst outcome, or set up some sliders to give a mix of outcomes at every interaction and just watch shit unfold.

Detroit: Become Human is also in this vein, with an even wilder array of possible outcomes as well as some more real gameplay and puzzle solving.

TwoBeeSan,

Disco Elysium is essentially a novel.

Phenomenal game

kosherbacon79,

Doki Doki literature club is very good. Don’t read spoilers tho.
