I love these posts, but I need to make a bug report for the Boost app, because for some reason these posts are unreadable in that app. Scrolling is just way to sluggish. Not sure if it’s the length, or number of images.

Drat! I had users complain last time about Boost. It has to be the amount of images / GIF inclusion I have in these, but using Thunder and Jerboa, I see zero slow-down, so it has to be specific to Boost!

GIF inclusion

On that note, the GIFs don’t seem to load for me. Tried three different apps (Summit, Thunder, Sync).

Voyager works perfectly fwiw

Doesn’t load for me in Voyager either but it works in browser so there there alright. What the hell

alehel,

Developer just confirmed the they found and fixed the bug for the next version.

GreyEyedGhost,

As a Voyager user, the image load takes a looong time, but everything scrolls smoothly (except for the text jumping as images load).

Not much to say but this is the usual comment to thank you for your wonderful posts.

Enjoy Rome! Be sure to try our Carbonara at some point! :P

I finished the Siege of Dragonspear and even Black Pits expansions of Baldur’s Gate 1, and have now started Baldur’s Gate 2 Shadows of Amn.

I’m not far in yet (chapter two) but already get the feeling this is much deeper and has many more options than the first game - which was already quite good. I think I’m going to like this one.

Enjoy it! BG2 is still my favourite in the series, even having played BG3. Savour ever line David Warner utters as Irenicus, there have been few performances so perfect in a video game even all these years later.

Replaying links awakening and the oracle games. Been on a 2D zelda kick lately and LA is my fav.

For me I stopped playing because the switch is a horrifically uncomfortable console that can barely render the game at a playable frame rate, let alone a good one

Really should emulate it sometime

@lime@feddit.nu avatar

if you’re willing to try softmodding, you can comfortably overclock the switch to run tears at 60 in almost every situation.

easily3667,

Works well in emulator

Did stop playing cause I was bored of the repetition and the unskippable cutscenes. Aka I don’t actually enjoy Nintendo games.

endeavor,

Emulate it on deck, I heard it does great there.

Abnorc,

I’m reading online that the game doesn’t even maintain 30 FPS on the switch in docked mode. That’s kind of crazy for a console game released in 2023. I get that it’s a cheaper console, but at some point, they need to bite the bullet and just manufacture something with better hardware. No wonder people are trying their hardest to emulate the switch.

Coelacanth, do gaming w What game do you really want to play, but haven't yet because you feel it in your soul that it will get a remake/remaster soon enough?
@Coelacanth@feddit.nu avatar

System Shock 2. I’m basically also holding off on playing the SS1 remake until I hear official confirmation that the sequel is getting the same treatment.

SnotFlickerman,

The sequel is just getting a Remaster, not a Remake. SS1 was a full remake, SS2 is just a remaster. No idea if they plan on giving it the SS1 treatment, and I don’t really care as long as multiplayer works in the remaster.

JohnEdwa,

It’s getting a remaster, but also maybe a remake at some point.

Though it doesn’t need a remake nearly as badly as SS did, the remaster could get it pretty close already.

k1ck455kc, do games w Is Baldurs Gate 3's voice acting so great that it ruined other games for me?

Well dont play The Last of Us part 1/2 or it will ruin gaming for you.

Zahille7, do games w Is Baldurs Gate 3's voice acting so great that it ruined other games for me?

Legacy of Kain: Defiance. They got actual stage actors and real acting veterans to voice a lot of the major roles in that game. It feels like you’re playing through some epic dark fantasy movie because of it.

Also, it may sound weird, but some of the audio logs in Prototype 2 actually fucked me up because they did such an amazing job. The one that’s stuck with me the most is one you can find fairly early on in the game, where a mom is trying to stop a government soldier from shooting her son because he’s nonverbal (and therefore can’t “prove” he’s not infected), and it’s absolutely gut wrenching. I had to stop playing for a few minutes after I heard because it was so intense. Here’s the recording if any of you were curious.

At least Silent Hill 2 was great as well. Lae’zel’s actress Devora Wilde actually did some mocap for it. She did some Maria and some of the monsters.

She’s streaming her own playthrough on Twitch. It’s hilarious and painful. BG3 was the first video game she’s ever played since the Sims back then.

But yeah, they really upped the game. And apparently they got Liv Tyler interested in doing games as well.

We’re really living through the time gaming is growing up.

What do you think about the game overall so far? My girlfriend loves AC, especially Origins and Odyssey, but was pretty disappointed in Valhalla and kind of meh about Mirage.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It’s a step in the right direction for sure compared to Valhalla. It simplified the bloat down, and it feels like there’s actually parkour now. I’m afraid I can’t compare it to mirage though as I haven’t played it yet.

I’d say if they liked origins though they’ll like this though. It reminds me a lot of origins, just with a bit of the grinding taken out

Mogę zasugerować stronę “Open-Source Alternative”. W ustawieniach da się zaznaczyć filtry “alternatives to [np. Google]” i znajdziecie tam masę propozycji. Warto promować takie rozwiązania w ramach kolektywów, zadaniowych grup studenckich etc.

No tak, to na poziomie instytucjonalnym wydaje się trudne do osiągnięcia. Kojarzę inicjatywę, trochę pokrewną z omawianym tematem, “Fedigov”, czyli grupa promująca wykorzystanie Fediversum dla stron samorządów. Już przynajmniej dwie gminy weszły na fedi - Stary Sącz (@gmina) i Brwinów (@brwinow). Myślę, że taka sama grupa lobbująca za odejściem od MS na uczelniach by się przydała.

O, to aż ich zaobserwuję. I teraz też pytanie, czy taka inicjatywa musi wyjść oddolnie czy odgórnie, żeby się cokolwiek zmieniło.

I got hit on a couple times in Starcraft 2 of all games just because I had a feminine-sounding username. I literally got “damn girl, look at that MMR” once and it’s so funny.

Oh, wow! Amazing post, great job here! Loved to read through it, follow links and read more stuff! That Nintendo PlayStation was a rabbit hole!

I’m currently bashing my head with Elden Ring, dying all the time, figuring maybe I’m to old for videogames. I played DS2, DS3 and Bloodborne before, so I’m not new, but other things like online gaming and mount-fighting are too complicated for me. Items are just too many, difficulting me to actually use them. Never played online, ever, do not like the whole idea. Also had a run for Dying light but didn’t finish it. IDK, I’ve died a lot in videogames lately. Kind of tired of dying.
