BootLoop, do games w Preserving Play: How Eden Grew Into the Switch Emulator Everyone’s Talking About (my interview with the devs)

I have not heard of Eden. I was a big fan of Yuzu but this was the first I’ve heard of it.

RightHandOfIkaros,

I have been using it since 0.0.2 dropped a while back, but when I first looked into it I thought it was a straight up malware masquerading as a Switch emulator.

carotte,

it’s not helped by the fact that there’s a bajillion websites claiming to be Eden’s website…

Unsurprising, it’s not for anyone but those who spend a lot to be able to frag the other one.

I stopped playing MMOs and online shooters a long time ago. Instead dividing my time between actual cycling and playing single player adventure games.

I took a break from necesse after no lifing it for weeks after I discovered it. Now that it’s just hit 1.0 I managed to gift a copy to a friend, and watching him outgrow my hard earned knowledge in a day with some guidance in mechanics was probably the most satisfaction I’ve felt this year.

Indies are carrying the industry and have been for a long time. Hmu for some necesse.

TigerAce,

That’s really nice! I’m finding it hard to start a proper game, I need some motivation. Hopefully a friend of mine has time to play together :)

CaptKoala,

DM me if you fail to find friends to play with, they also have a discord server and I see folks playing in there basically daily.

anarchyrabbit,

Ooo I stumbled across this yesterday, peaked my interest and I bought it. Looks interesting, can’t wait to play it!

CaptKoala,

I’m at 60hrs and counting. Started new char and world for 1.0 as well as play with my bud and so far we’ve basically caught up to where my pre1.0 save was at.

You missed a circle.

TigerAce,

Where?

SatansMaggotyCumFart, do games w Why would I buy this?

I want a Call of Doody game where you're running around downtown of a major city looking for a public bathroom while prairie dogging a big old shit kind of like Far Cry 2's malaria mechanic.

Lawnman23,

This is the way.

Rentlar,

With CoD BO3 extensive ability to be modded and workshop support, it could be theoretically possible.

treesapx,

I’ll support anyone who references Far Cry 2’s malaria mechanic. A game ahead of its time…

TigerAce,

I want to see a game where you have to pay rent on a server and you need to spend all of your time working to make in game currency to pay the rent otherwise you’re kicked out. But when you’re sick and can’t play, they will kick you out anyways. And the rent keeps getting up, but the monthly income does not. And when you need customer support they put you on a waiting list and when it’s your turn they say “wrong department, we’re putting you on another waiting list” so you will never get the mental help you need. Yeah, I would definitely play that game, I know I’m good at it.

Zolidus, do games w Why would I buy this?

I got it on sale for 10 bucks last year. Great SP. Lots of fun.

TigerAce,

That’s why I pirate. Even 10 bucks is too much money for these companies exploiting their customers. The only “downside” is no multiplayer. But I only care about single-player anyway :)

popcornpizza, do games w Why would I buy this?

I’ve always wondered what all the CoD or Battlefield games have that’s different between the versions? 😅 Because to me it’s just a bunch of people running around shooting each other in the exact same way. I can’t, at a glance, tell you which game or version it is, if I stumble upon someone playing it.

Same with the football, basketball, and American football games. Which version is it? Have the rules of the sport changed between years? 😂 Who knows!

On the other hand, I love survival crafting games, and with the indies you rarely tell them apart because they all look the same. 😂 So I shouldn’t speak.

TigerAce,

The graphics. You need the newer game to be able to play with the rest because they have the newer version, and you want the newer version for the better graphics, but to be able to run it properly you need to buy the high end GPU’s. If yo don’t, you’re a loser, a sad poor person, because everyone else has it and you don’t. So you throw away more money to something completely shit. And children are very easy to catch in this scam.

I understand the single player campaigns are somewhat fun. I’ve had Black Ops on my Steam wishlist for years and it has never been on a decent sale.

TigerAce,

I don’t like the black ops series. The modern warfare games had a really nice single-player, or at least the first 2 (I haven’t played any cod after that, they already broke it).

dependencyinjection, (edited ) do games w Why would I buy this?

Bro the CoD ship sailed years ago. They just don’t innovate and release the same shit year after year. Buy something else. I’d recommend Factorio.

mellow,

Quite the leap going from CoD to Factorio tho. 😅

dependencyinjection,

I had an intermediary of Minecraft and really gravitated towards the automation, I then saw Factorio on YouTube and was like damn this looks sick. I’m a software developer so it tracks that I like to solve problems.

Recently downloaded Satisfactory though to give that a try.

I also believe I aged out of FPS games as I was pretty above average all my life but just don’t have the time nor inclination to keep grinding anymore to stay really good at them. All about solo games now and just vibin.

brognak,

Only because I had to explain the differences recently and it’s top of mind:

Satisfactory - Main goal is efficient usage of limited amount of throughput. Resource nodes are static, and efficiency is the name of the game. My favorites usually end up a spaghetti mess of belts, everything being fed the correct amount of inputs and all outputs being accounted for.

Factorio - Main goal is THE FACTORY MUST GROW. Your factory need more input to run 100%? You could figure out how to optimize everything that comes before it, orrrr just slam more out. Resources are randomly generated, and while you can exhaust deposits, there’s always more on the horizon. Explore. Expand. Exterminate. ENLARGE FACTORY. Usually ends up in a beautiful mess of a factory with bots zipping around, and the power flickers every now and then when the biters think they are more powerful that explosives/concentrated beams of light.

TigerAce,

I really enjoyed The Dyson Sphere Program

yermaw, do games w Why would I buy this?

You need to get cod because everybody has cod. Its cod. You ever told a colleague/schoolfriend/acquaintance/anyone that you like video games? Their next question is “what prestige cod are you”. Cod is love. Cod is life. Cod is the game. You’re not a loser are you?

Noodle07,

I am, I play factorio and stellaris instead

TigerAce,

Excellent choices

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Just get Madden bro. Cause like… Is Madden

Tigeroovy, do games w Why would I buy this?

Some dudes seem to be required to buy every COD game and every new sports game every year and that’s it until they eventually try to sell it all as a bundle on Facebook Marketplace.

I know this is a steam page, but y’know.

TigerAce,

I’m a person sensitive to that stuff too. I love to have collections complete. I used to buy every special edition of assassin’s creed but I should have stopped after black flag. I used to buy games fully, with all DLC’s because I needed it to be complete. Even the expensive useless skins, for single-player games. It’s so stupid. And most oft he times I wouldn’t even finish the game and wouldn’t even start on the extra purchased content. Same with boardgames on kickstarter. I have several games with all expansions and extras still in plastic, for several years.

But I’m done with this shit. I stopped buying boardgames because I have more than enough and I pirate videogames and purchase them only if I spent enough time enjoying the game.

But recently I purchased the latest Hitman game because I enjoyed the pirated version. When bought, it was only half a game because the pirated version had all the DLC’s. So I refunded it, I’m not going to spend money for only half a game, then to have to spend more to get the complete game.

Indie games I buy, AAA games I pirate and most of them I won’t even play longer than 3-5 hours because they are shit. Happy they didn’t get my money, I feel scammed by the industry for way too long.

RabbitMix, do games w Why would I buy this?

I’m all for hating on CoD, but the DLC “content” is skins and minor cosmetics, it really doesn’t add anything to the game and isn’t necessary at all. Also the CoD Points are for cosmetics as well. There’s a lot of shitty things you can and should say about Vanguard, but it is not pay to win.

TigerAce,

Fair enough, at least we have to give them that. But that means it’s a platform for people to show off they have more money than others and gladly show they wasted it on useless digital nonsense. Not the audience I’d like to play games with.

TheEighthDoctor, do games w Why would I buy this?

It’s not for you, you are not the target audience. The target audience is the people who buy MADDEN/FIFA every year.

RightHandOfIkaros, do games w Day 462 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

I recently started a modded run in the Dead Sun Expanse mod map, its pretty cool. Like playing Zomboid 2.

Damn, finding new zomboid mods is not good for my save’s longevity. I searched up Dead Sun Expanse and already want to play it
