I was in the military and we had this big conference table that could fit a good 12 people at. About once a month our boss would give us the key for the weekend and we’d play Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, and Red Alert 2 for 12-18 hours straight while pounding back Mountain Dew Code Red.

Kerbal Space Program: progression from being unable to get a rocket into orbit, to collecting a surface sample from all 5 of Jool’s moons in a single launch

OprahsedCreature, do games w What procedures do you take to save and archive your games?

Blu-rays are a viable backup medium for long-term storage

SidewaysHighways,

No bdrot?

OprahsedCreature,

I mean, you should always check your backups and make 2 for good measure, but supposedly some of these newer ones are made for archival and claim between 10-100 years. Never trust such claims without verification but if true could be the best thing for archival besides punching bits in stone.

SidewaysHighways,

heck yeah! my buddies were making fun of me for trying to get an old BD rom to play nice with proxmox, and i have a stack of old bdr’s from 10 years ago lol

OprahsedCreature,

Sounds like those old bdr’s should be checked and possibly rearchived 😂. I think the Blu-ray M-Discs are the ones that claim the longevity.

ryathal, do gaming w What games are you nostalgic towards but wouldn't go back and play?

Gen 1 pokemon. It was awesome to experience, but the formula is just better in later versions.

GoldenEye, I did try it years ago, but going back to one stick for a shooter is really awkward.

Wow, I don’t have the time for an MMO anymore and they are a lot less fun after your first experience.

Oblivion and Morrowind, the changes in Skyrim are almost all improvements, and the mod support is better. You can smoothe out the edges of the older games, but it’s a long process I’m not interested in. I’ll stick with find memories.

Have you tried the mouse and keyboard mod for GoldenEye? I imagine it makes everything incredibly easy but it could be different enough to justify a playing one more time

The other comment said everything that needs to be. Just note that the west bell may look close but the way to it is anything but short compared to the east bell. Keep exploring and be careful of spoilers on internet

RabidRabbitch, do games w Developer of WalkScape (the fitness MMORPG where you progress by walking IRL) here again. We're accepting new players and have a Lemmy community!

Lost_My_Mind,

I know! I KNEW I had to repeatedly emphasize that I’m not joking. I KNEW it sounded batshit insane from the perspective of someone who’s never heard of it. And even after all the reassurance from me that it DID exist, your first instinct was still “This guys full of shit! Let’s confirm with google…oh.”

Dagnet, do games w Recettear HD Announced for 2025

I really want a sequel tho, following another character ofc (would need a new name too). This is gonna be nice for new players but I don’t feel like the game has a lot of replay value. I wonder if it will be a free upgrade for people that already own the game

Thorry84, do games w Switch game recommendations

All of the Kirby games are really fun for kids, especially the 2D ones. I recommend Kirby Star Allies, I played it a lot with my nephew when he was 5

QuantumEyetanglement, do games w What did everyone grab during the Steam Winter Sale?

Picayune Dreams! A “vampire survivors” -like as if you are schizophrenic and on acid simultaneously. A great $3

prole,

Great game

That’s steam but the games I’ve put the most time into are:

Minecraft, must be over 10k hours.

Halo 1, 2, 3 and Reach, pretty sure over 10k hours combined.

There’s surely some game I’m forgetting right now, just woke up.

There are also several mobile games I must have put thousands of hours into over the years.

caut_R, do games w What did everyone grab during the Steam Winter Sale?

A bunch of EA games they‘re practically giving away considering the 90% discounts (Mass Effect etc.), and a bunch of indie puzzle games (Cats Organized Neatly etc.) as well as some steeply discounted Devolver Digital games (Hotline Miami 2 etc.).

I think I paid the price of one full price game (70 bucks nowadays) for like 20+ titles, but also yet again lost the battle of the ratio of games purchased vs games played this year… Damn you, Gaben!

Now I‘ll just wait for Monster Hunter Wilds which is easily my most anticipated game at the moment and probably the first triple-A game I‘ll be getting on launch since Elden Ring.

Same here.

FYI, Monster Hunter Wilds is available on Green Man Gaming and Fanatical for -18%, taking its price down to a normal triple A price of 57€.

iAmTheTot,

Even cheaper if you have max discount at Humble.

homicidalrobot, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

Tombstone is out! Skilling MMO (So think runescape) with a retro-future wild west type theme and pixel gfx that can be played from steam, its own client (available on itch), a browser, or android. Runs on anything, obscenely fast update pace, developers on discord respond to issues dummy fast. I’m currently playing tombstone.
