Just helping sentient taxis find their way home and other miscellaneous gigs in Cyberpunk 2077. Making slower-than-usual progress on this one, even though I’m enjoying it a lot, because I’ve been busy lately (and have a really good book that’s stealing my time, ha ha!).

Also it’s more like what I’m planning to play, but I’m definitely going to start a new playthrough of Stardew Valley once the 1.6 update releases. I haven’t even done most of the 1.5 stuff, so I’m looking forward to a starting up a new farm!

PlasticExistence, do gaming w What are your experiences with Famiclones?

Most are system-on-a-chip implementations with only okay compatibility. Color palettes will be slightly off or sounds will be a slightly wrong pitch, won’t support all carts, etc.

Your best bet for playing your games on a modern screen is to get an FPGA based system, a top loader NES modded with HDMI output or simply use a cycle-accurate software emulator on a computer.

sleepybisexual,

Yea. I’m getting a retroid for my next device.

An FPGA would be cool but carts are expensive

Pyro, do games w AutoForge - Game that combines Terraria with Factorio?

I also see a lot of parallels to Oxygen Not Included in the screenshots.

PersonalDevKit,

In art style maybe, otherwise the main gameplay is very different.

leave_it_blank, do games w Microtransactions

I miss cheats, there are times I just want to be in god mode without having to download dubious trainers.

Besides that I agree with everyone, micro transactions, loot boxes, games as a service, always online are an instant “no buy”. Also DRM. If it’s not on gog I don’t buy it.

I have an elite, but prefer the 8 bit do ultimate. It’s light but sturdy, comfortable, can toggle to pair with my switch or the PC, and has a cool looking charging dock.

n0clue,

I think I’ll have to try that out.

teawrecks, do gaming w Good chair that is *affordable* ?

I would steer clear of any chairs that

  • function as a billboard for themselves (high back with a logo that’s clearly visible on a twitch stream)
  • are built like a bucket seat from a race car
  • or are otherwise marketed toward “gamers”

I would try looking for a second hand expensive one. I found a guy on CL who restores Herman Millers; sold me a lightly used Aeron for like $300.

The one I used before that was the Ikea Markus (also purchased on CL for $100, barely used).

I_Clean_Here, do games w What games run well with integrated graphics?

Be specific, dude. Anything “can be played” on some sort of integrated graphics setup, depending on wtf we are talking about.

Rimworld is primarily CPU bound. It’s potentially my favorite game ever.

Bought Outer Wilds yesterday and started playing it with the VR and voice acting mod. Haven’t gotten far yet but seems very interesting so far and the VR mod is so good that it feels like a native VR game.

I bought it but haven’t played it yet, I really need to overcome my laziness and do it 😅

This browser game/toy called Infinite Craft was doing that for me yesterday. It's very neat, you just take different words and combine them to create new things, and then use those to make more things, but its secret is that it uses a low level AI so that if you craft a combination that's never been crafted before it can accommodate that and attributes you as the first discoverer.

You start with the whole basic idea of combining elements like fire and water to make steam and such, but you can relatively quickly end up accidentally creating more complex things, and they dont even have to be objects, they can be named franchises or concepts like Star Wars or Creation.

Eventually I felt like a small kid ripping the limbs off action figures and seeing if the dinosaur head would fit on the Darth vader figure. I ended up first discovering some insane Eldritch shit like Barack Crabwich Vader-car, a part president, part crab, part sandwich, part sith lord cyborg, part car. Or Zombie Muppet Prince Kermie. Or the Jurassic Mecha-Deloreansaur.

It's free and is a ridiculously absurd hoot, I'd recommend it on a PC browser since you get a big space to drag out certain concepts you wanna keep and reuse.

I play a lot of boomer shooters, some of the more nostalgic ones give me that feeling.

But the cozy exploration, and childlike wonder of Sable are feelings I yearn for long after completing it. So far nothing else has scratched the itch.

Outer Wilds can get similar when you have transcended beyond the existential dread of lonely death in space. It’s spooky at times, but death is cheap, so you just look forward to the next attempt.
