I played so much TF2 from probably around 2014 until the dreadful matchmaking update. Still played a bit afterwards but not nearly as much. By far the most I’ve played Spy and Engineer, always liked them because they were the most unique. Scout after that.

allen, do trains w Abt System Train on the Oigawa Railway, Japan

@zabadoh

This one is interesting. The Abt system is only between two stations on a steep grade and a separate locomotive shunts with the train, not shown here.

The picture is of the beautiful and unique station that is located on top of the bridge.

I've ridden this one, and I would recommend earplugs if you have sensitive ears.

I played at lot of the Spy class back in 2008ish. I was actually pretty damn good... Backstabbing folks was super fun.

bionicjoey, do games w What are some excellent free games/total conversions that are worth playing the whole thing?

The Elder Kings 2 mod for Crusader Kings 3 is pretty amazing. It lets you roleplay in the Elder Scrolls universe, but instead of a Skyrim-style rpg, it’s a grand strategy game with intricate political and relationship mechanics.

Notyou, do gaming w Is Disco Elysium playable in short bursts?

I’m not adding anything new, but I wanted to agree with others saying playing in bursts is fine. I would suggest at least 1 hour, if not more. If you don’t have an hour just wait till you do. I played it in burst, but there is so much to read that a shorter amount of time won’t do it justice.

Definitely worth playing. Multiple times too. I played my first go one way and now I’m playing a completely different Tequila Sunrise.

There are several good total conversions for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. Star Trek Armada 3 is the most complete overhaul I’ve played for it. I’m a big fan of Halo spaceships and the Sins of the Prophets mod is the closest thing I’ve seen capture the asynchronous battle between UNSC and Covenant ships. There are others for Star Wars and Stargate that I hear are good, but I have not tried them.

B0NK3RS, do games w The N64
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

N64 is one of my favourites but also the hardest to go back to after all these years.

takeheart,
@takeheart@lemmy.world avatar

My family still has one but the image quality is terrible on modern big screen TVs because

  1. It’s stretched out and native resolution of N64 is already tiny by today’s standards.
  2. Unnatural aspect ratio unless you can set black bars somehow.
  3. Modern displays have sharper pixel separation and colors don’t ‘bleed’ into each other as much which kinda helped the rough polygons of that era.

The result is a picture that is both sharp and blurry at the same time and gives me head aches after an hour or so.

Sunk 2000hrs into Warframe without paying a dime. Also Path of Exile is a nice fair free 2 play game. For total conversions try Fallout new Vegas and mount and blade

The one thing I do miss about the N64 controller is the Z trigger on the back. It’s something that no modern controller has seemed to replicate. The closest I’ve seen is the Steam Deck, and even the triggers on the back of it aren’t quite the same.

The controller was weird, but they didn’t have a template yet for what a joystick controller should look like. Also, it makes a lot more sense if you understand that you’re never supposed to the D-Pad/Joystick at the same time. Left hand goes on the D-Pad handle for 2D games, Joystick handle for 3D (some third-party developers didn’t understand this though).

terminhell, do gaming w Why are arcade cabinets so expensive?

The cabinet and it’s own electronics.

sleepybisexual,

They have custom boards?

I thought they emulated nowadays

MajorHavoc,

Yeah. You’re both right.

The board is a usually a cheap single board computer (usually running Android, and an emulator or two).

The board is custom to the extent that the operating system has been optimized to know that it’s running inside an arcade cabinet.

terminhell,

I guess what I meant a bit more specifically are things like buttons, the screen, cables, any daughter boards needed for like special lights, speakers etc. stuff beyond, as you mentioned.

Netflix has some good games I don’t expect. I love playing their Pinball and Slay the Spire.

comicallycluttered,

Also on Netflix:

Play Wonderputt Forever if you like physics-based and/or golf games. I found it pretty fun and fairly challenging in the later levels.

Desta is also a really interesting narrative turn-based tactics game with some poignant emotional moments (it can actually be a bit heavy at times, especially if you’ve dealt with LGBTQ+ prejudice personally).

And I’m also really glad Netflix resurrected Cut The Rope from its grave. New puzzle daily and several months worth (i.e. hundreds) of puzzles to play if you’d like to catch up.
