For me, that tends to be a sign of burning out. Or at least it’s imminence.

They’ve forced me into the high seas with their destructive greed.

cjf, (edited ) do piracy w I am looking into setting up a home mediaserver. Any good guides?

You’ll want to look into the *arr apps.

Specifically… sonarr, radarr and prowlarr.

Wiki is: wiki.servarr.com

Also, jellyseerr looks like a nice requesting front end github.com/Fallenbagel/jellyseerr

I haven’t used jellyseerr as I use a VPS that only offers Ombi, but that’s pretty good too.

It’s most likely easiest to use docker to spin everything up.

battleshack, do piracy w A way to disable laugh tracks?

Original video assets from a studio has multiple audio tracks, but they are transcoded down to a single audio track before distribution to the end user. Sorry.

You could do some fancy editing, or maybe you can use machine learning somehow.

But removing the laugh track really messes with the comedic timing.

Depends on the show and how it’s used, in my opinion it feels more disruptive than the interruptions left behind by its absence.

tetris11, do gaming w What are some games that "spin" failure states?

Kenshi. Though usually that means that your corpse was found by slavers, nursed back to health, and its up to you to find replacement limbs and then crawl/hobble/run away from the camp when no one is looking

Huh, is there an option for being immortal in Kenshi but in the "you are immortal but not invincible" way, so characters never die but they still need someone to come along to save them and fix them up before they can move again? I used to simulate this in Rimworld with the bleeding out mod that kept pawns from dying upon losing most vital organs for a very short time combined with a mod that made them regenerate lost parts at 10% efficiency until it fully regenerated, leaving them unable to do anything but still alive until recovery.

No. But it’s actually kind of hard to straight up die in Kenshi, most of the time you’re just knocked unconscious for a while, sometimes you enter a coma while you heal back up and that can be dangerous as wild animals or slavers might find you and if you’re bleeding out that could be a death sentence. The only real way to just straight up die is to get beat up so hard you get fatally wounded on either your torso or head, but that’s incredibly rare.

offbyone, do games w What games had easy soft locks that prevented you from either progressing or getting a true ending?

It’s not quite what you’re getting at, but in Bubble Bobble Revolution you can’t pass level 30 because the boss doesn’t spawn. It’s a soft lock but there’s nothing you can do to avoid it, and the game is on the DS so there’s no updates to fix it :D

pewgar_seemsimandroid, do piracy w Watermark removal?

unless it’s from a bigish company then don’t remove the watermark

FippleStone, do piracy w Thinking of getting a retro gaming machine.

You should be able to, ahem, find some convinent ROM collections on most torrent indexers. A standard NES game is only ~128kb, so the whole library of games is only like 750mb. It scales exponentially with every generation as data storage improved, so the SNES library is 2gb, the N64’s is 5gb, and the PS3’s is 20tb. I find that I really don’t need the full library of a consoles releases available, so I usually only choose maybe a hundred or two that I’m interested in, there’s only so much time in the day. If you don’t need a handheld device I can recommend modding your ps3, it can emulate most anything, the hombrew scene is active and there’s been a lot of support for it, plus for the majority of consoles it’s a full custom firmware solution, so it’s a pretty seemless experience once you set it up. Plus with the internal hdd there’s plenty of space for stuff. Pretty much everything up to last gen is easily pirateable, so have fun with it, it’s easy once you get the hang of it.

Thank you so much for this very informative post. I will strongly consider trying this. :)

JokeDeity, do games w Do you find the description Live Service Game off-putting?

I find the word “service” off-putting. I want to buy things outright and own them. I do not want recurring fees.

SCB, do games w What game has a great story and is worth the time investment?

I definitely recommend Control, since a lot of games you like have big epic set pieces as well as an engaging story. That game is insanely rewarding if you’re willing to put the time and effort into looking for “collectibles” and piecing the game together. Very cool atmosphere and fun to play as well. You really get out of this one what you put into it.

Bioshock Infinite got shit on by both racists and leftists who completely missed the point of the game, but the ending is the best of the Bioshock series IMO and stuck with me longer than most anything else I’ve played. Lots of big cinematic moments, too.

Guardians of the Galaxy is slept on imo and has some amazing moments, and while the story is a retread of things the GotG comic has done, if you’re not a big comic reader, you won’t know, and if you are, you’ll be jazzed about how things are represented.

BG3 is incredible and the hype is well-deserved. The replayability is genuinely off the charts. Ive begun 4 playthroughs and beat it once and have not played the same game twice. Main story is the same but the variability in motivation, drive, and interactions is simply incredible. It is THE CRPG, and this is coming from someone for whom BG2 is my favorite game of all time.

New Vegas is New Vegas. It’s a shining example of what gaming can be for a reason. Needs no explanation (other than “don’t go north at the start”).

MaverickWolf,

I came here to say Guardians of the Galaxy. The gameplay is fine, but the story and music in the game are awesome! I keep trying to get people to play it.

I find the lack of Space Quest titles in this thread unsettling. For me, it’s Space Quest IV, but they are all absolute gems.

I prefer Leisure Suit Larry, but I’ll upzipper any Sierra game!

Conker’s Bad Fur Day on N64 was definitely up there.

insurgenRat,

I was like 12 but it was funny as shit. I think now a lot of the humour might fall flat now the zeitgeist has moved on but that storming of the beach against the teddybears still cracks me up remembering it.

turtlepower,

Having to piss out fires and flowers with tits will forever be in my memories lmfao!

mojo,

The mighty poo boss was a masterpiece

turtlepower,

I still to this day sing that song from time to time. Absolute fucking masterpiece indeed.

Pulp, do piracy w Is anyone else like 10 times more likely to play a game they pirated versus one they bought?

I may buy a game on great sale to maybe play later

If I pirate it, it’s because I want to play it asap
