I had this same question recently. The last Ridge Racer I played was awful, absolutely awful. It was a Vita Game and it shipped with barely any content, it was bizarre.
There was a period of time the game consoles launching with a Ridge Racer was actually gaming tradition, it was even a superstition that if you didn’t launch with one, the console would fail.
The PSP, Xbox 360, PS3, Vita, and PS2 all launched with one. You can check the dates to confirm.
Ridge Racer is still one of my favorite games, and I loved Horizon Chase Turbo so much I recently picked up the physical Vita release.
While I guess you ask because you want to know if the story of the first is important to the second and I can’t answer that because I only played the first. But If you like hard but rewarding Metrodvania games and you are interested in the weird and interesting religious/horror pixel aesthetic I say: definitely play the first Blasphemous!
If this interests you, no reason not to play the first! I personally bounced off of it, but I don’t think that is the game’s fault.
The game’s combat strikes a unique balance between “slow and deliberate” (ala Dark Souls) and traditional fast-paced platformer combat. I went in wanting the game to feel like Hollow Knight, and it is definitely not the same. You don’t play a bouncy lil bug man, you play a big heavy knight. Big heavy knight + platforming felt like a weird combo to me, so I put it down. But not every game is for everybody!
I think the only thing I might have changed about the first game is removing relic slots. It felt a little needless to limit the number of keys/exploration upgrades the player can use at any one time. Other than that, solid game.
Games are entertainment, and so I get my news coverage from people who I find entertaining. This means I’ll take biased, opinionated ranting if it’s funny-enough. So mostly Yahtzee.
which is why im so partial to the current incarnation of giant bomb. i didn’t follow them in theur bigger days so i had no preconceived notion of what GB should be, i just followed jeff grubb to it when he moved there from gamesbeat. super charistmatic dude, funny as hell, great takes, goes out of his way to help signal boost other games media people.
the chemistry the gb crew has is magic and they all have great and distinct tastes in games. plus they do stupid shows like blight club where they pick awful games for each other to beat like bubsy 3d, sonic 06, robocop for xbox and heckle each other/ laugh at each other’s misfortunes
Minnmax - Some former Game Informer peeps pulled a Nextlander and it’s been great. For anyone checking it out for the first time now, usually Ben Hansen is the host, but he’s away for a time on paternity leave.
Jesse Cox has 5 Minute Gaming News that lists news into little bite-sized chunks that I can handle every weekday. Used to love Jesse on the Cooptional and Cox n Crendor podcasts so I like listening to him.
Also every Friday Crendor is featured on the Cren Minute where he talks about whatever he wants and its the most redundant and hilarious thing to me.
And shoutouts to Lyle Wrath’s hilarious Pregame Discharge show where he lays out the news in an extreme and absurd way. Used to be weekly but now kind of forced to be monthly after Destructoid dropped it.
When you pirate on Linux it’s up to you to make sure you are running it in a compatible environment. Checking protonDB and other sources may show you some workarounds you will need. The other way to do this is to open the game in a terminal, try to run it, look for errors or missing .so files or other things in the terminal output, and use that as a starting point to figure out where you need to go to get it configured the rest of the way.
Lutris scripts and the like do not use pirated sources on purpose, so you are very much on your own with it.
You will find it very difficult to get help with game piracy on linux just because the community is very small. If the game has a native release it will be even harder since most linux users want to support developers that do native releases. I’ve only ever tried a couple games that I had no problems with and that was a few years ago. These days if it has a native release I will always just buy it.
I do get that point , but I don’t want to lie I am preety broke who lives in a third world country I am simply unable to afford such luxury of buying games
