Been mostly playing ToTK on switch like some here, though I think I’ll have to give a few more attempts at P ranking some bosses in Pizza Tower soon, or perhaps try to 100% Hifi Rush

Angleslam,

Would you say Hifi rush is worth the price in amount of content terms? I’ve been switherong on it for a while.

Sorry for the late reply! It’s really a question of how you approach postgame content. It’s a fairly short “linear campaign” with hidden challenges for level replays. For me the story was fun and the mechanics engaging enough to enjoy beyond the short playtime.

I still enjoy turning it on to do a few fights and enjoy the rhythm mechanics, might do a new play through.

Poosh XL 152 reviews. An arcade high score chaser with a neon aesthetic.

I’d love to contribute with Vision Soft Reset, with 78 reviews.

A metroidvania with time travel elements, you are a robot that can see the future investigating a planet, every time you save it creates a vertice in a timeline tree where you can jump around. I wish it was more ambitious but with the small team and budget, it did what it wanted pretty well, with my critique being a lack of polish in a few areas.

Hieracosphinx,

That sounds incredible. Adding it to my wishlist now!

Dymonika,

This title is in at least one of the past years’ gigantic itch.io charity bundles, for those who may have picked up some of those.

I’m late to the party but I created !freegames if you’re still looking (and no, I didn’t know about the lemmy.ml one at the time!)

Dymonika,

Sure, I’ll subscribe!

Gollan, do gaming w What is your favorite pre-EA Star Wars game?

X-Wing (1993). I’m old. It is still one of the best games I’ve ever played.

I spent so many hours on that game as a kid. I had a Sidewinder joystick on my Acer i386 running Windows 3.11.

Years later I played X-wing: Alliance but it just wasn’t the same.

Stronghold, the castle simulator with a lot of charm but a dev team that lost their touch after a few sequel attempts.

    I haven’t played Myst since the 90s! Such a great game.

    Gothic 1 and 2. Weird control scheme you have to get used to, but very good games world building snd character wise. Can be quite challenging with the combat, but quest allow tons of ways to solve problems.

    joyofpeanuts, do gaming w What forgotten cult classic games are worth revisiting?

    The original Leisure Suit Larry series, Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Myst, Half-life, Doom, Quake, Lemmings, … For more fire up your retropie or recalbox on a raspberry pi.

    rambaroo, do gaming w Steam is a buggy mess.

    I don’t have any advice, but I’m seeing bugs even in Windows. The right click menu in the system tray isn’t sized properly so half of it is cut off and there’s no way to select the cut off menu options, even with keyboard input.

    I have to open up the entire app just to exit steam. I’ve seen other UI bugs too.

    I think the new UI is nice overall but it’s very buggy. Might not even be an issue with Linux, just a buggy app.

    Maybe this will fix your issue? It enables the full right click menu without the “show more” garbage. I’m on windows 11 22h2 and it’s working fine for me. Never had an issue with it that I’m aware of.

    edit that I misread your message and this isn’t really relevant at all to your issue. but the “show more” button is super annoying so i didn’t delete my reply incase someone else is annoyed by it.

    Last game I played on it, yesterday, was Just Cause 3. It’s… not great. The game just doesn’t run consistently enough and is too CPU heavy.

    I recently played Red Dead Redemption 2 on it, that was great. Surprisingly so. I’m playing Skyrim now. I’ve had the game for years but never took the time to properly get into it. I beat the main quest and messed with mods back in the day but that’s it.

    Now, I’m playing it vanilla and I want to just go deep into the game, completely ignoring the main quest, I don’t want to be the hero, if the universe needs saving, it can find someone else. Khajiit have caves to explore and stuff. Oh and the new Survival Mode is neat!

    DIG, Deep in Galaxies looks awesome. Thank you!

    prole, do gaming w Gaming often fetishises the new but many great things exist in the past, so let's strap into our time machines and talk about our favourite games released before say 2010?

    I just picked up Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition (the original, not the Remaster) again. Installed it on my Steam Deck along with DSFix after a year or so of scrolling past it and seeing the “unsupported” icon. Looked it up on ProtonDB and apparently it works just fine.

    What a game. The level design is still unmatched imo

    I have that edition and can’t for the life of me get my xbox controller to work with it. I swear I’ve tried ALL of the solutions people give and just gave up in the end.

    prole,

    Have you tried something like xpadder where it just maps the keyboard keys used in the game to your controller buttons? I’ve had to use that from time to time way back with older games before controller support got better. Not ideal, but seems to work usually when all else fails.

    I’m not sure if/how it works exactly since I mostly do my “PC” gaming on Steam Deck these days, but if it’s possible to use Steam Input on Windows, you may be able to do something similar right in Steam.

    MayonnaiseArch,
    @MayonnaiseArch@beehaw.org avatar

    I’ll try that, never heard about it! Steam input is an option in steam on windows, I guess it’s the same deal? Thanks for the xpadder thing, it will come in handy for sure.

    prole,

    Nice, I’m glad I could be of some help. Let me know if you get it to work.

    Steam Input is amazing, it’s one of my favorite features of the Steam Deck that nobody really talks about. The amount of customization you can do for controller layouts for individual games is incredible. You can even create radial menus if you want.
