index, do games w PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery

I would give proprietary software 18+ rating too, nobody know what’s inside.

tal, do gaming w Please suggest budget controllers for kaizo mario..

good d pad

D-pads are the one aspect of a controller that I wouldn’t worry about much. I’ve only ever had one controller that had a D-pad that I wasn’t happy with, a Logitech in the mid-1990s that had a screw-in mini joystick on the D-pad. That rolled to the diagonal too easily.

thinks

Maybe the old NES controllers, which had a relatively-hard, non-rounded D-pad and could be tough on the fingers for long sessions.

I guess one could prefer the PlayStation-style or XBox-style D-pad position, though I’ve never had issue with either.

Do you have something in particular that you’re concerned about regarding D-pads? I’d expect pretty much anything out there to be fine, myself.

A decent example of a bad d-pad would be the Switch Pro Controller. Unless they’ve fixed it in a later revision, the controller has an issue with outputting diagonals when they aren’t intended.

Descenders

Idk why. Well, I do know why: I grew up in an era where Flash games started to do physics-based gameplay, and something about that just made them endlessly replayable and easy to do while focusing on something else like a lecture or whatever.

So many games these days demand your full attention. And that’s great, when you have time for it. But if I just have 45 minutes to derp around while I catch up with friends on Discord, I can’t dive into an epic boss fight that I was prepping for a month ago.

I’m happy to lobby for the balatro dev once he posts on a federated media (real fed, not bluesky).

Personally, I don’t care if balatro is popular here, the pegi 18 rating will impact sales 0%. Also, FC24s gambling should be banned EU wide or the rating of the game should be upped to 18+. Better yet, we should use this Balatro slip up from PEGI to get FC24s rating to be revised to 18+

I don’t doubt that some weird ultra religious family will ban Balatro in their house because of that.

Hej! Taki mały update:

dziękuję szmerze, że istniejesz, bo bardzo mi pomogliście z tym!

Używam Speech Note z językiem faster whisper large v3 i jest nieźle (sporo trzeba edytować), ale pomaga. A może ktoś inny język polski wybrał w ustawieniach i jest lepiej?

Lubię podgrupę “zapytajszmer” tutaj <3

apotheotic, do gaming w Is there any (single player playable) game with $10 which has made you point any go "haha" or given you an equivalent feeling because it was that enjoyable for every moment you played it?

I have a lot of games which were enjoyable 100% of the time, but none which I played for over 100 hours. I’d be absolutely exhausted if I was in “oh neat haha wow!” mode for that long, personally, my dopamine receptors would be fucking fried.

Good luck with your search, and below I have some which fit your criteria outside of the 100 hour requirement.

ListA Short Hike Beacon Pines Heart of the Woods Citizen Sleeper

rtc, (edited )

My experience is that while the tendency for physical reaction numbs a bit, the actual feeling pf enjoyment does not go away.

I haven’t looked at any of these before so this is particularly helpful.

Primer81,

I would also add the following to your list (also outside the 100 hour req, but still 100% enjoyable):

Tiny Terry’s Turbo Trip

Outer Wilds

Outer Wilds may be obvious to anyone who has played it, but it would be a shame to leave it unmentioned as it is my favorite game of all time and seemingly universally loved. And Tiny Terry’s Turbo Trip is just stupidly entertaining - impossible to stop once you start playing.

apotheotic,

Outer Wilds is an absolute banger, I don’t know how I forgot to mention it.

BTW if you enjoyed OW, play Tunic!

Primer81,

Thanks for the suggestion! Ill add it to my wishlist 😊 I also added the games I hadn’t played from your list so thanks for that as well!

rtc,

I didn’t receive notifications for these—thank you for the suggestions. There have been complaints about the newer edition of Outer Worlds. Which version is fine to just get and start playing, if I decide to get it?

Primer81,

Of course! And it’s actually Outer Wilds I’m referring to; I haven’t played Outer Worlds yet so I can’t comment on it. They have very similar names unfortunately so it’s easy to mix them up.

rtc,

Ah yes, I misread it

apotheotic,

Hope you enjoy! Feel free to poke me to talk about any of them if you so desire :)

Domiku,

Citizen Sleeper was phenomenal. I really liked how it handled branching choices and the limitations of time.

apotheotic,

It really did so much right. Strong recommend for Becky Chambers’ Wayfarer books if you enjoyed the writing in sleeper.

Might be a hot take, but reporting on that just generates the wrong kind of buzz.

He probably forgot to funnel millions of dollars to non-profits and businesses adjacent to PEGI decisionmakers and their family members. Rookie mistake.

@eezeebee@lemmy.ca avatar

The 100 hour mark is a tough one to hit - even some of the best games I’ve played aren’t that long or replayable, and the ones that are usually cost more than $10. Still, here are some to check out if you want. I’ll list the price on Steam in Canadian dollars and my current total play time.

  • The Messenger - on sale for $5.19 - 35 hours
  • Infinitode 2 - Free to play - 47 hours
  • Ori and the Blind Forest - on sale for $6.24 - 23 hours
  • Risk of Rain 2 - on sale for $9.56 - 81 hours (new to my library, less than 1 month)
  • Undertale - on sale for $2.74 - 28 hours
Midnitte,

Risk of Rain 2 is amazing, though one thing to hold on to is that the newest DLC had some issues (amazing that a game so old is still getting attention) that you might want to wait to get fixed (since it still affects the base game).

eezeebee,
@eezeebee@lemmy.ca avatar

I’ve heard about that and through multiplayer have been able to experience it. Honestly I prefer the base game without either DLC. Even the Void DLC is too chaotic for my taste.

Midnitte,

The void items are pretty good (and the lunar items are pretty bad), but i did enjoy the new DLC - I didn’t really experience many issues, but figured it would be worth explaining that it’s expected to get a lot of fixes in the coming months and might be worth waiting to see how fixed before buying.

Definitely a great coop game, along with Heroes of Hammerwatch

Katana314, do games w What game surprised you with their length?

Considering how simple its premise is, Another Crab’s Treasure seems pretty basic, like its story doesn’t have much left, at several points. People online gave some takes that four boss fights from the end, they thought each one would be the final boss.

Far Cry 3 also did this well. You finish the skill tree, do the last few missions where the increased power slides the difficulty down…and then it turns out you unlock a whole other island to make use of your full ability tree in every encounter.

kamiheku, do games w PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery

Wait, wasn’t this already an issue a while back and wasn’t that resolved?

simple,

It was banned by a few countries for looking like a gambling game which was a separate thing, now it’s just rated as an adult game by PEGI.

kamiheku,

Right - I was thinking of the brief store pull.

But I thought that got resolved with the game getting the 18+ PEGI rating back in March already?

Or was it like a provisional rating?
