It’s awesome, enjoy! FYI you can assign right stick to camera control, and raise the framerate with interpolation.

Is it as bad as the time Netflix killed the movie industry?

The movie industry is plenty capable of killing itself.

Omg! You can stun them!?!?

I was so frustrated with them on a recent play through.

Stovetop,

You can!

Worth noting for anyone looking to play both N64 games is that OoT Gerudo stay stunned indefinitely (until the area is reloaded) but the Pirates in Majora’s Mask who are borrowed from the Gerudo guards only stay stunned for a short time before getting back up.

This incentizes use of the Stone Mask, which can be obtained from the invisible guard by giving him a red potion. If playing the N64 version, he is located outside of Ikana Graveyard, which is a place that you can get to at that point in the game but many might not have bothered exploring yet. In the 3DS version, they moved him directly into Pirates Fortress so he’s harder to miss, but it does require just a little bit of stealth to get to where he is first.

It took me a while to figure out too lol. I never stopped to consider it until i was messing around with the bow and arrow and thought “i wonder if i can shoot them”

Very unlikely. He hasn’t made any content covering the initiative yet.

What u attempt to accomplish? Maintaining games also takes time and effort and server costs and they likely kill them to save costs.

There is no way this petition is gonna do anything

4am,

When games put DRM in them that requires a server

And I buy that game

And then they take away that server

I want my money back

Or for them to latch the game so it works

It’s not fucking hard to figure out

funkless_eck,

then don’t make single player games (or sections of games) require a server.

KingOfTheCouch,

At best we get fresh new EULA’s to click through on our way to play our game.

I’ve signed a lot of petitions over the years, and I’d sign this one too, but it’s pretty naive to think this will actually do anything useful.

HK65,

This is not just a random petition, it has legal force to compel the EU to officially hear the issue.

pupbiru,

you can’t sign away consumer rights in a EULA… they might try and out them in there, but if it were law then they wouldn’t be able to enforce it

deur,

Its okay to stop running the servers. All gamers want is to have the stuff it takes to continue to enjoy the game after the companies are done.

HK65,

It might get the EU to make a law.

psx_crab,

Enable offline mode. That’s the very least they can do. These game, like how EA famously claim that it’s not possible for SimCity to run in offline mode and then soon release an offline mode, should be playable offline.

Enable private server/p2p multiplayer. This would make sure playing with friends is still possible after the server went down.

seralth,

It’s trivial in the grand scheme of things to release a localhost server to let games run offline. For the amount of work that goes into games already this is a drop in the bucket.

It’s also trivial if you know it’s a requirement at the start of the project.

So even if it does nothing for games out now, if it makes it a requirement going forward that alone would be a massive success all by it self.

@CannonGoBoom@lemmy.world avatar

If you’re in Game Mode you can click the cog button, go to Compatibility and select a proton version. This may help

Edit: you may also need to make sure you have Steam Play enabled. I believe the latest system update enables this by default.

caut_R,

Manually enabling a proton version did the trick, I was able to download it after! That was a way simpler fix than I anticipated, I wonder why the Deck behaves like this for this game only (from my library at least).

In any case, thanks a lot!

What a great game! That’s a fun temple too.

Nice. Life is short, play games

No, the Steam life is not to play games, but to buy them.

PerfectDark, do games w Old gamers don't understand what mobile gaming has become
@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar

Mobile gaming, on Android, is an interesting space right now. I used to buy flagship phones exclusively, as high spec as I could just…because I could. I played a few emulated Nintendo Switch games on them, as well as the odd Game Pass title (with a telescoping GameSir Xbox mounted controller thing) and then I realized I really had no use for them. I rarely played, and my most recent phone purchases have been mid-range.

That said, so much is now possible on Android. You can emulate everything from Switch to PS3, use pretty front-ends to use as a launcher station (a quick note of appreciation for the totally FOSS option - Lemuroid), and as unbelievable as it still is to me, you can even play full PC games like GTA V using winlator

The scene for Android emulation is incredibly dramatic with frequent in-fighting, but also pretty impressive from a technical standpoint. It’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea - and that’s fine, but the mobile scene which isn’t just gatcha games hooking kids on the Play Store is so varied. Then you’ve got actually impressive games like DREDGE getting a Android release, replete with custom builds and changes for the Android system (no lazy ports!). Heck, even No Man’s Sky is coming to Android soon!
