I jumped back into Diablo 3 for its season 29, and holy shit, it seems so ridiculously easy in comparison to Diablo 4, at least in regards to leveling up. It's taken me less than a fourth of the time in D3 to get to level 100 plus 15 paragon levels, compared to me getting to only level 85 in D4 (which I'm also still working on). I don't know if it's because I've played so much of D3 that I'm just that efficient and I haven't quite got the hang of D4 yet, or if it's something else, but man, going back and forth between the two is kind of a trip. It also makes me really miss having a pet to run around and pick up gold for me lol.
I also finally finished The Sinking City again last night. I was kinda procrastinating by leaving a lot of the side quests for end, especially since I knew which ending I was going with. Got some pretty great screenshots out of it! It's one of those games that I wish came with a capture mode.
I think at this point I still prefer D3 to D4 (maybe also nostalgia?). I do think that D4 will improve given enough time, I’m hoping. But it’s sad that I paid full price for a game that, not only is expensive and has battle passes but will have yearly expansions on top of it.
I have no doubt it will improve, it just needs some tweaking, but I do think it will evolve into it's own thing too. I still have the original Diablo 3 on Xbox 360, before they added Reaper of Souls and started doing seasons, and even playing that is vastly different than playing D3 in it's current state. Having that perspective, it will be interesting to see where D4 is in a couple years.
Still deep in Baldur's Gate 3. I did relatively little content in Acts 1 and 2, and they still took me about 20 and 30 hours respectively. I wasn't sure if the game would run out of steam for me if I tried to do every quest that sounded interesting. Now that I'm in Act 3, I know I can end the game whenever I want, but I don't want to yet. I've spent 40 hours in Act 3 already and haven't even gone to the two major quests that I need to do yet to start wrapping things up. After I finish the quest line I'm on (hints for those who know, that will hopefully dodge spoilers: I'm about to go underwater to rescue some folks, and then I have to sabotage a thing after that), I may start wrapping things up, but we'll see.
I think most of what I’d like has already been made. But they are old, few and far between.
I’d really like a modern Freespace game.
I enjoyed how it made your keyboard into a functional cockpit and how you could customize your own and your squads fighters and loadout. And sending tactical info in the thick of battle.
All that junk. It was great. But the old games are showing their age.
I never really read PC Gamer. I used to subscribe to PSM and Nintendo Power. By the time I got a PC capable of running games, magazines were already on their way out lol
I do appreciate that they generally (BG3 review notwithstanding) aren’t afraid to call out bugs and aren’t one of the publications rushing to press with reviews. Even if their scoring system is ridiculous.
I don’t know if they are truly any more independent than any of the other big names, especially considering they have a (formerly E3) trade show now. They are also part of the same publishing group as Tom’s Hardware, which hasn’t been my first choice for hardware reviews for a while.
Miraheze is similar to how Fandom used to be, before ads entirely took over. There are no ads at all there. It is a site that uses MediaWiki so probably not many of its' sites would be news oriented (with like a single author controlling the content), but instead more wiki content for an entire community to share.
Environmental Station Alpha is a good metroidvania IMO, and it has just over 1000 reviews on Steam. It has good platforming, combat, sound design, and chunky pixels. Not the most expansive or complex metroidvania, but it’s surprisingly polished and costs less than $10.
Szanuję za kawał dobrej i nikomu niepotrzebnej roboty! :D
Media podniecały się wynikami w Wieruszowie, który nie znalazł się w twojej statystyce bo ofc zgodnie z prawdą też nie jest żadną Polską w pigułce, po prostu trafiły się tam chyba z dwa razy wyniki zbliżone do ogólnych. Ale mieszkańcom to nie przeszkadza i od lat organizują tam “prawybory” w ramach zabawy, a z ich wyników media próbują wdrożyć. Oczywiście nic się z tego nie sprawdza. xD
Oczywiście, to jedynie “pożywka dla umysłu” (ktośx mógłxby argumentować, iż przepływy +/-dziesiątki pproc. per lokalizacja są zastanawiające – z co najmniej socjo-/politologicznego punktu widzenia). Jeśli o niżej podpisanego chodzi, to jedynie czysto poznawczo – i tak nie biorę udziału w demokracji przedstawicielskiej, pewnych aktorów polityki mogę cenić bardziej czy mniej, natomiast świat wolę ulepszać innymi metodami – skąd neutralny stosunek do JOWów, zaś rockmanowi Kukizowi w wybieralnej polityce uszanowanie ze świadomością, że “robi robotę” gdzie indziej – stanowi kontrapunkt dla dulszczyzny/bigoterii. Istnieje wszakże aspekt, który nie daje spokoju: jeden z ponoć szczęśliwszych regionów w Bolandzie to… konserwatywne Podkarpacie. Wierzę w replikowanie pozytywnych wzorców – jak “pogodzić ogień z wodą” (konserwatyzm z wolnością). Z kolei “mała Szwajcaria” znajduje się na Kaszubach.
Przecież Kukiz sam jest dulskim bigotem, i hipokrytą razy milion. Nie ma bardziej zeszmaconej jednostki ludzkiej w polskiej sferze publicznej od niego. Chorągiewka bez idei, z potężnym parciem na szkło, z gigantycznym ego i problemem alkoholowym.
Jesteś pewna z tą bigoterią? Pamiętam tylko, jak w którymś wywiadzie mówił, że sam już nie pije (może “fakt prasowy”), ale nie myśli zakazywać innym (może wolno żywić nadzieję, iż roztacza tę tolerancję na związki inne niż etanol), natomiast za starych czasów Piersi miały taki kawałek: “Rowerek” – gorzki przytyk na mieszczańską degenerę. No i filmy “Poniedziałek”, a szczególnie “Wtorek” – też specyficzne satyry.
Jestem bardziej niż pewna bo śledzę jego zachowanie publiczne od wielu lat, z wielkim zażenowaniem. Cześć opisałam w moim podkaście który czasem tu publikuję.
If you’re at all into DMC or Bayonetta or just spectacle fighters in general, I’d recommend giving Soulstice a try, it’s not as refined as the better examples of the genre but it’s still a pretty cool game with some neat gameplay ideas. It also looks very nice.
I was mildly a Borderlands fan, but then I played Tales from the Borderlands and fell in love. It’s such a great game with amazing writing and music that I’m always surprised to hear that most people, including fans of the main Borderlands games, have never heard of it.
That’s one I did play, the only other Borderlands I finished was the second but I think it did a good job of keeping what made Borderlands Borderlands while going to a completely different genre.
Played some Heroes of the Storm with an online friend. I absolutely love this game, I only play it Vs AI, but it's the only MOBA I ever really got into, because I don't much enjoy competition and the AI is always there.
I never thought I'd get to this point with a competitive styled game, but I know all of the heroes, almost all of their abilities, I understand matchups or even possible talent choices and ideal or poor team comps. It helps that the game is locked in maintenance mode and I don't worry about an ever inflating hero pool and an ever evolving meta.
