I wish I could love super metroid. I really do. The game holds up. The graphics are great, the sound design is bafflingly superb for a 16 bit game. Controls are tight. Map size is big but not daunting.
And then you get to the part where you fall down a pitt. And the game teaches you to wall jump.
…everytime I play the game, thats where the game ends. It’s been 30+ years, and I still can’t wall jump in that game.
FWIW, that room is completely optional, only reward is a Power Bomb Tank. If you fall down there you do gotta get out, but if you can at least make your way up to the first platform you can bomb it to reveal a tunnel that lets you bail.
You want to press jump a little bit after you press the D-pad in the direction away from the wall. The time you have to do varies but you have between two and ten frames to do this. Don’t try and press them at the same time or it will always fail.
Are you a visual person? This image might help. You want to press jump when Samus is in this position, almost sitting against the wall.
Here’s a video of someone wall jumping with a controller overlay so you can see their inputs and compare it to what’s on screen.
It might take a bit to get the timing down but once it’s in your muscle memory it is very consistent. If I can do this then anyone can do this.
Been playing it on XSX via Game pass. As an original Kickstarter of the Pillars of Eternity game, I’d say it’s phenomenal. The transition in genres was masterful, and I have the same feeling of commanding a squad except I’m down in the actual instead of watching it from birds eye view. The dialogue choices have been satisfying and, playing on Hard difficulty, the combat feels like a genuine fun challenge. I’ve put about fifteen hours into it, and only recently made it to the first city after roaming the wilds to see how many three skull challenges I could tackle before following the main quest. I hope for a lot of content! If they even match PoE1 in story length I’ll be a very satisfied gamer.
I haven’t played the game at all since Seekers of the Storm came out but we would play it modded quite a bit before. The Samus character mod is so much fun.
For me, it highly depends. Turn-based strategy games, I can easily play at a much lower framerate (30 is fine tbh though I always appreciate more). FPS-style games? 60 is a bare minimum, but 100+ is what I would consider to be enjoyable.
Been playing Avowed, and enjoying it a lot. It’s a really good AA rpg in the POE universe, and the worldspace is probably the prettiest I’ve seen in the past couple years. I think the last time a game really 'wow’ed me with visuals, to the point that sometimes I just stopped to appreciate the view, was TW3.
Also played some Avorion, which scraches my Eve Online itch without having to actually play that, and Mabinogi (Frieren crossover event), which was the first game my partner and I played together 15 years ago. It’s gotten so many QoL updates in that time that there’s almost no ‘grind’ anymore, and it’s so much more laid back than other MMOs, and has so much content.
Wszystko po angielsku. Parę lat temu zdecydowałem się na taki krok i teraz czułbym się dziwnie, korzystając na nowo z interfejsów w języku polskim (mimo tego, że polski jest moim ojczystym językiem).
Ja kiedyś całe życie po angielsku, ale to chyba dlatego, że od małego wszystko było albo po angielsku albo piracone po angielsku. Więc z przyzwyczajenia angielski, a dopiero potem zczaiłem się, że ej, przecież mogę ustawić polski język. Na początku było dziwnie, ale teraz nie robi mi to różnicy, czasem po polsku, czasem angielsku, ostatnio obczaiłem, że w Debianie mogę sobie włączyć kaszubski. Jak się uczę jakiegoś języka to po tamtemu ustawiam itd., żonglerka.
That made me laugh 😂. Simple is always good, as long as you’re having fun. 3070 would definitely do even 4k at 30FPS on medium or low. My RX 6600 does that easily on pretty much every game.
❤️. Bro, that’s beautiful. Keep it that way. The guilt starts pouring right away once I think of buying anything for myself. I’m so fucking cheap when it comes to buying shit for myself. You’ll find me lurking around the Facebook market place getting the cheapest deals possible, and they get all the good stuff.
Back in the days of CRT displays I had a 120Hz Trinitron, to pair with the video card and 3D goggles (which shuttered each eye in turn) to give 60Hz per eye
No way could that system or video card keep up with anything more modern than Turok 1 but it was nice for the couple of years it was good enough.
I wish I still had that Trinitron, I’d need a deeper desk though
@psud I do like my displays cause they are so old right now and still working. One of them is that old that the most modern connection he got is DVI. To get that working I was forced to buy an adapter for my graphics card.
Because I got two displays the color of them is so different that if I move a window between them to be shown on both I can visually see how broken the colors are on both of them.
The also have issues with ghosting if there are fast movements. I still like them.
30 is acceptable for most games but stuff where the gameplay is mainly the movement itself (platformer, racing, first person shooter) needs to hit 60. I could go lower than 30 for the visuals on a lot of games but that’s the threshold where the interface starts feeling unresponsive and that really gets to me.
