sylverstream, do xbox w Starfield Review And Discussion Mega-thread

I’ve played it for two hours or so today and so far loving it! 30fps is noticeable, but much better than other games and not an issue to me while I usually can’t stand it. It all feels immense and very fun, I enjoy exploring and looting and talking to people.

Graphics are a bit underwhelming to be honest.

Also I couldn’t spot a minimap for stations to find eg shops, unless I’m missing something.

The fast travel feels perfect to me, not an issue like others described.

Exciting game. 9/10

idotherock, do gaming w Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of September 3rd

Oh nice! I super want to get Blasphemous 2. I loved the first one.

I’m continuing my slow progress through Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

chloyster,

You def should! It’s basically an improvement in every way imo over the first. I’ve heard some don’t like the cutscene art style as much but it doesn’t bother me

idotherock,

Oh cool! I can’t wait! Cheers!

Hadriscus,

Had no idea there was a Blasphemous 2 ! Will try

Carighan, do games w Game recommendation, looking for easier western 3D ARPG
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

Would branching out into spectacle brawlers work for you?

In that case, check out Bayonetta 3 on the Switch and Armored Core VI on PC/whatever!

For something closer in combat feel to Elden Ring, Atlas Fallen maybe? But I haven’t personally played it and reviews are mixed, so can’t really say how enjoyable that would be.

Psyduck_world,

You just reminded me that I haven’t finished Bayonetta 3. I am going to get on it asap.

As someone who has been stuck on Balteus for the last 2 days, I'm not sure AC6 is a good recommendation. It also doesn't really feel or play like ER.

Crystal_Shards64,

Just a suggestion, but I’ve heard you might need to adjust your playstyle for certain missions.

comicallycluttered, do gaming w What's the funniest game you've played?

Ace Attorney has some really hilarious moments throughout the series.

Similarly, Ghost Trick, although it’s been years since I’ve played it.

ezures,

Recently played ghost tricks, and it’s great mystery/detective/supernatural story! I can never look at Pomeranians the same.

(Also Lynn getting so used to “tricks” is really good too)

comicallycluttered,

Yeah, it’s a fantastic game. Didn’t get nearly enough attention, so I’m super happy it got a Switch port and more people get to play it.

The art is lovely and the animations in that game are some of the slickest I’ve seen as well. Really enjoyed it.

Of course it can do that but so can I

tuckerm, (edited ) do gaming w Just Got an 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller, What Now?

I don't have an 8bitdo Ultimate controller, but I have several of their other ones. They all work for me over bluetooth when I pair it with my PC and then use Steam to recognize the controller. They show up as a Switch Pro controller, meaning Steam won't be aware of the back buttons (I'm guessing you need to use 8bitdo's software to do that). But you can remap the regular buttons and the gyroscope in Steam's UI. If you use xinput mode, then you are limited to the controls on an Xbox controller, so no gyroscope.

That does mean you need to use Steam to launch all of your games, even if you bought them elsewhere, but Steam has a controller-friendly interface, so I prefer to do that anyway.

edit: Bah, I just saw @mp3's comment. Too bad that their Ultimate controller doesn't work like their other ones, that's a big step backwards.

Probably Minecraft with my 5 year old. Yesterday and today. Been loving it.

Thanks for this! I haven’t played it since it came out. I’ll look forward to having a go.

CharlesReed, do gaming w What's the funniest game you've played?

Maize. I had no expectations going into that game except what the brief Steam summary gave me, and I was not disappointed.

Bucket Detective. This was recommended to me by someone who said "this is the weirdest game you'll ever play", and I think they were right.

sub_, do gaming w What's the funniest game you've played?

Can’t say which one is the funniest (probably jazzpunk), but here are some that I found funny:

  • Jazz Punk
  • Procession to Cavalry
  • Thousand Arms
  • Metal Wolf Chaos
  • Frog Fractions
  • Monkey Island
HipPriest, (edited ) do gaming w What's the funniest game you've played?

Someone else mentioned Procession to Calvary - an adventure game set in a cut and paste world of renaissance art with a very surreal plot and sense of humour. Pythonesque.

There Is No Game is pretty hilarious, the voice acting always makes me crack up.

Agatha Knife is a funny point and click adventure game where you're a 7 year old girl who's a butcher and needs to set up her own religion sacrificing pigs in the basement for... Reasons.

maltasoron, (edited )

The creator of Procession to Calvary has two more games out which are equally funny, The Preposterous Awesomeness of Everything and Four Last Things.

vettnerk, do gaming w What's the funniest game you've played?

I wish I could forget all about Day of the Tentacle, so I could play it all over again and rediscover everything.

That whole ordeal with Red Dead Uncle Fred is hilarious, especially after IRS arrests him and restrains him with literal red tape.

kmkz_ninja, do gaming w hardware: use TV as a monitor?

Have been gaming in front of a 44-inch 4k TV for years (sorry eyes) with no issues. The biggest thing is making sure the TV has some sort of low latency or “gaming” mode that will turn off the TVs post-processing. WITHOUT THAT, the other commenters are right that the input lag may be unplayable.

Flatworm7591, do piracy w This file has 16 detections, is it safe to install it?

There’s a decent write up on how Android ‘dropper’ malware functions here. TLDR - while the APK may be clean, it tries to trick you into installing a malware infected APK later in the install process or during a fake update.

Aresff,

Thanks. That dropper function looks dangerous. However, the first dropper campaign spotted by Threat Fabric at the beginning of October 2022, and this file was uploaded at 2020, so even if it’s indeed malicious, it’s probably a different bad guy I guess.

thejevans, do gaming w What would you be interested in out of a modern games focused journalism outlet?
@thejevans@lemmy.ml avatar

I think that 404 Media is a great example of a recent independent media organization that has a great user experience and a monetization strategy that doesn’t make me feel gross. A lot of their pull is the excellent journalism and writing, and the fact that the journalists that started it are respected and have a decent following. I don’t know how feasible this type of setup would be without that head start.
