Have you played the original game?

I have not unfortunately. I tried to give it a try on the Xbox Re release but just couldn’t get into it. I want to go back and give it a try though some day

Trailer dumping: useful content, or ad spam?

PerfectDark,
@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar

To me if it’s a new release of a game…of course it should be shared! The first person to post it (preferably with their own views on the game coming written underneath) keeps the community up-to-date with what games look like. Trailer ‘dumping’ really only happens when there’s a big event, and the point of that event is seeing trailers for games. It makes sense to have them shared here.

But posts sharing the same trailer after that first? Removed.

I don’t think of it as ad spam, because it’s not like Rockstar is making a Lemmy account to make sure we see the GTA VI trailer. If we denied trailers being posted, there’d be some very angry Silksong people when that one got the trailer!

frongt,

Should they be consolidated into one post then? It’s just bothersome to see a bunch of ads (because let’s be real, trailers are ad material) dumped in quick succession. The only ones I’d watch are for games I’m interested in playing, but for the ones I really want to play, I’d rather go in mostly blind so I won’t watch those either.

It’s not just one trailer, either, it’s announcement, release date, “now on steam”, cinematic trailer, gameplay trailer, release announcement trailer.

That’s indeed what we asked to do next time for big events. But when no such big event occurs, it’s OK.

In my opinion, the following trailers are acceptable :

  • Announcement of a new game -> so we can start talking about that game
  • Announcement of end of early access or of game release (like Hades 2 recently) -> So we can talk about the game at its release state
  • Major update of updates of a game (as soon as it isn’t too often) -> So we can discuss how that specific update make that game evolve, for better or worse. I’d honestly still prefer those one to be kept to their dedicated communities, but one from time to time won’t kill anyone.

Globally, that’s also a way to advertise dedicated communities for that specific game, so I think that’s alright.

We’ll discuss all of this with the incoming community rules update.

TachyonTele, do games w I just beat Bloodborne for the first today, and it's probably one of the best playthroughs of a video game that i have ever had and stories of one as well.

I've been having a blast playing this on my stream deck

Juice,

Wow how did you make that work?

TachyonTele,

I didn't. I was kidding. But that would sure be awesome.

prole,

It’s not very hard to do these days. Check out my other comment in the thread.

Juice,

Lol yeah that would be nice. I’ve heard of ppl playing it on emulator, but its always a streamer or modding micro celeb.

prole,

It’s actually pretty easy to get working on PC (in 60fps) these days with emulation. Like you get the emulator, and it literally has an option to connect to the bloodborne 60fps rom hack repository within the emulator itself.

Haven’t tried it on Steam Deck specifically, but it worked surprisingly well on my laptop when I tested it out several months back.

Don’t have the link off hand but it’s not hard to find. I could probably find the link if someone really wants it and can’t find it themselves.

EDIT: not sure if counts, but I did a good portion of my BB playthrough on my Deck, streaming from my PS5.

Congrats :)

What weapon did you use?

whotookkarl, do games w Thoughts on the humble bundle this month?

Return to monkey island was pretty fun if you enjoy the originals or telltale versions. The movement and gunplay in d2 was a lot of fun, too bad they screwed up so bad with the expansions and monetization.

DeadDigger, do games w Thoughts on the humble bundle this month?

Well I don’t know this spell force but in general it is a solid game, monkey island is liked by quiet a few ppl, rest is not good or known to me. Would be a hard sell for 15 tbh

_hovi_, do games w Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

Never tried it before but finally playing Enderal (whole game made with the Skyrim engine basically). It’s pretty good so far.

With friends, mostly just The Finals. Still very fun (if you’re into competitive multiplayer)

zrst, do games w bruh, i just realised that the last time i played Garrys Mod,Obama was still president lmao

S&box when?

Do you think if the others knew they were going in a bundle with destiny they would have also skipped this bundle?

PerfectDark, (edited ) do games w Favorite Modded Console?
@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar

I see the OG Switch can be modded and looking into that, seems like you can actually push it to do 60 FPS instead of the 30 it’s locked into when you buy one if you overclock it.

You can! That’s the sys-clk! And it makes playing ToTK far less stuttery than it is without this!

You can do all kinds of things, but my fav has to be the ability to run your own themes on the Switch. I’m not sure why Nintendo refused to allow themes on the Switch, but something like themezer lets you customize the look of your home, menu, settings, lockscreen etc to your heart’s content:

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/c80afe83-a3b5-4b41-83b9-d03bcf6a6655.jpeg

The OG can be softmodded, you just need to slide a RCM ‘jig’ in the right-hand Joy-Con rail to trick the system into booting into recovery mode, and then you can inject the exploit. It’s dead simple, but it can get tiring - having the do the same process each time you shut the console down. Some users try using folded foil or a paperclip (all you’re doing is ‘shorting’, so it works), but I’d recommend the dead-cheap dedicated jigs people make before trying that one:

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d352b855-dd4c-4f6f-864f-61505dd0e5e5.jpeg

You can also install Linux (not so great) or Android on a partition for emulating weaker older systems, you can back your saves up, play with cheats, use texture packs, even use any bluetooth controller from any company with the Switch by using MissionControl and…well the list is long for things it can do!

Every single Switch can be chipped (whereas only original 2017 and some 2018 V1’s can be jailbroken with the jig) however, my OLED is by far my fav chipped console. I did it myself (but to do it you need to be VERY proficient in micro-soldering), with the ‘kamikaze’ method, using the Picofly. This means it never loses the exploit, and it can be shut down and rebooted without losing the ability to boot into both the stock side (regular non jailbreak side - for online games) or the jailbroken side, where you can be as hacky as you want (as long as you remember to block Nintendo’s servers from being able to see you!)

People take the scene to great lengths, they customize everything and it can end up being an artform. I love my modded OLED, but I’ve also jailbroken V1’s, and chipped the V2 and Lite. I love seeing what some people end up making:

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8873d1e1-01a6-41fc-8e10-65a2b9440491.webphttps://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/5501460a-4261-4340-9db1-5da8623070ec.webp

It’s well worth looking into! If you’re after a cheap V1 to do it the cheapest way you can, look at Buyee. They’re everywhere in Japan and so reasonably priced!

zbych, do zapytajszmer w Mapa pól campingowych - jakie znacie?
@zbych@szmer.info avatar

Szedłbym w stronę map na bazie OpenStreerMap, gdzie będzie można wybrać opcję pola kempingowego. W większości aplikacji typu OsmAnd jest taka możliwość. Można też, np. poprzez stronę openpoimaps w zakładce hotels. Na bazie OSM jest też Lokjo, ale tego jeszcze zbytnio nie rozkminiałem. To oczywiście zaznaczone są oficjalne miejsca, ale np. Grupie biwakowej są miejscówki mniej oficjalne.

Expedition 33 (so beautiful it hurts) and trying to beat A20H with the Silent in Slay the Spire.

I just finished up The Last of Us Part II, I really enjoyed it and it explores narrative themes I like.

I just set Final Fantasy 7 Remake to download too. It’s been on my list for a bit and I’ve been lining up to play it after Part II for a while

Auster, do games w Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

Been playing Silksong as quickly as possible while still being enjoyable, as I'd rather avoid spoilers and quite a few of the people I follow are posting content on it.

But once it's done, planning to go back to Final Fantasy XII and Girl from Arkanya.

viral.vegabond,

How do you like girl from arkanya so far?

Auster,

Got to when Kapi is introduce. Up to that point, as a Brazilian? A bit cringe. Can't say much more about the story as I didn't play further. On gameplay, at least on that tutorial segment, it plays fantastic.

Auster,

But about story, if going by what I saw the devs sharing, humour is very promising. =D

viral.vegabond,

Thanks for sharing. I've definitely been eyeballing that one
