I can see why they no longer call it a planet, what’s the cutoff for asteroid size?

johannesvanderwhales,

It is still a dwarf planet. Basically when it hits hydrostatic equilibrium, i.e. when it’s round, it is considered a dwarf planet. More here

HER0, do gaming w What's your favourite and/or least favourite gaming hardware?
@HER0@beehaw.org avatar

I really enjoy all of Valve’s hardware. Others are mentioning the Steam Deck, which is great, but I also love (and frequently use) the Steam Controller and Valve Index.

I don’t know if I have a clear least favorite, as I never owned the things which interest me the least.

BruceTwarzen,

People really seem to hate the steam controller. I love that thing.

A big part of it, I think: the Steam Controller is different in ways that are unpleasant if you approach it like a standard controller. For example, it is not designed to be gripped around the handles like an Xbox controller, but to rest in your fingers. If you attempt to grip it like a traditional controller, it is uncomfortable and the trackpads are hard to use.

I have a friend who grew to like his Steam Controller after using the trackpads on his Steam Deck. For him, it was realizing the potential of the hardware combined with Steam Input.

Leavingoldhabits,

Deus Ex is amazing, if you can get passed the aged graphics, it’s a masterclass in storytelling and game design.

Not that old, but Prince of Persia: Warrior Within (2004).

I have not played that many games, but I have yet to find such an amazing action adventure combat mechanics.

There is a trailer on Youtube that does the system justice - everything can be done in-game, at your will, and it’s not even that hard. Context matters, and it’s so rewarding chaining different combos to plow through them like butter.

Those basic enemies are meant to be fucked up in every possible way, the environments often provide ample varieties of opportunities.

Then there are stronger enemies and bosses, which don’t let you mop them around, so you have to fight them face to face.

The game itself is decent, there are some bad platforming parts, but thanks to time rewind they can be beaten.

The biggest issue is very low native resolution, and the game kept crashing on my Steam Deck. I will try it again, because I want to relive that combat again.

PraiseTheSoup,

All three Prince of Persia games in this trilogy: The Sands of Time, Warrior Within, and The Two Thrones are some of my fondest memories with my original Xbox. Amazing games and I finished all three, but I’ve never been able to get into another PoP title since.

edit: a word

msage, (edited )

I installed Two Thrones, saw the speed kill, instantly removed the game.

Was it comparable to WW?

PraiseTheSoup,

I can’t really say as I played these games around launch nearly 20 years ago and don’t remember much.

    kyub, do games w Reminder that Jagex Privacy Policy is Opt Out - Link in Description

    Well this whole area is mostly based on deceit. Like if they claim they MAY do something they will absolutely do it all the time, if they claim they aren’t getting anything from it, it just means they aren’t getting anything directly, but indirectly instead, or from a different involved party. I also like the message at the top of the page: “Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data.”. Under some circumstances you have rights. Which is weirdly accurate. Because in most circumstances, they will just sh*t on data protection rights. Which is also evident by everything being opt-out, rather than opt-in. And then, most likely, even when you disable everything, data will still flow somewhere. Then again, it’s an industry-wide problem. Not specific to Jagex.
