insomniac_lemon, (edited ) do games w Half Life 'n' the Boys: Dodgeball Exhibit

€1,950,000 5,124 people for the first event goal

I think it should be on the moon with a Black-Mesa-branded rocket (with a gnome on-board), for thematic reasons. It’s no Xen, but you could probably add some decorations and even without that it’d be a better match than Italy.

Not sure about dodgeball though, I think area combat would fit more as well. Just make sure to have first-aid stations and have everybody sign waivers.

…or maybe you should just do free meet-ups with people to play dodgeball or talk-about/play your favorite games etc. (and maybe you’ll find some overlap) without it being some record-breaking event?

CorneliusCopernicus,

I forgot to post another way it all relates to gaming and another popular game it all relates to while still fitting the theme, to bring multiple communities together, and the record-breaking event was never meant to be a requirement to make it all happen. I will try to post another update soon.

Ashiette, do games w what boss in any video game has an insanely cool intro to them before fighting?

It has to be Riku in Kingdom Hearts. He takes about 5 minutes or more to tell you that your path ends there and he actually delivers. Then he tells it again when you inevitably try again, because you can’t skip the bloody cutscene.

Starski,

Have recently played this for the first time, and I’m stuck on the final Riku fight, it’s excessively difficult and worst of all I just don’t really care about the characters for it to be worth it for me to finish the game, honestly a super overrated game.

Ashiette,

For a long time I thought KH to be the best game ever but… It is ! When you’re a teenager, when you’re going through angst. But when you’re a grown up, it is not as good.

Nils, do gaming w A reminder to not take online negativity too seriously

I remember the first comment I got on online was "you suck". But it was soon drowned by encouragement words and constructive feedback.


About Hollow Knight, by the time this got posted on reddit, the game was already funded through kickstarter - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/11662585/hollow-knight

What this image does not show is the amount of support this post received, more than 20k upvotes and plenty of endearing messages on reddit only.

u/YoDudeguy Nov 20 '15
Damn, that looks amazing! Thanks for bringing it to our attention. Will buy.

u/Eliza_Douchecanoe Nov 20 '15
I like the dark feel of it, but with light-hearted game play and sound effects. Good shit.

If I sort by votes, I had to scroll a bit to get to that 756 votes message.

It is important to filter and properly process the messages you receive. There are some mean and unnecessary messages on that image (and on the reddit thread), but they do not show the full picture and at that time could easily be ignored.

Thank you for this comment.

bunnyBoy, do games w After two years of development, Heroes of the Seven Islands, a cRPG that I drew by hand on paper, will be released on Steam, in four days the 9/9/2025 (demo available)

Finally, a quest I can relate to and get behind.

Go murder a bunch of crabs to make the town safer? Size your destiny and become the legendary hero? Tired, cliche, no thanks.

We wanted to make some banger cheese, so we left it in the dungeon to age, but now a dragon lives there and I really want that cheese? Now THATS a quest I wanna go on!

NeatNit, do gaming w It's hard to believe

I refuse to buy it until it costs more

Edit: I guess I could buy it both on PC and on Switch

Kinokoloko,

I hate how I didn’t even see the post title and immediately thought of Elite

bampop,

Me too. I bet some younger folks might have thought of Elite Dangerous though

Deceptichum, do gaming w I refuse to by a new mouse
@Deceptichum@quokk.au avatar

All my mouse end up like this after a year or two. Thing is they never used to back in the day but all new mice have a coating that wears off so easily now.

Malix,
@Malix@sopuli.xyz avatar

could be my tinfoil hat receiving thoughts via radio waves: maybe it’s by design? the coating will get grimy eventually, so the user is more likely to buy a new device.

Pieisawesome,

It’s not really a tinfoil hat, it’s just the material.

Older mice were hard plastic, modern mice use soft touch plastic which is a coating. It wears off.

It’s kind of like cheap pleather after a couple years

Poopfeast420,

You still had the rubberized grips on a lot of mice back in the day, that would just get sticky over time or get rubbed off. Not really much better.

GrindingGears,

Remember taking the balls out and scrapping all the dust and crap off the rollers? It was a guilty pleasure of mine, but some of the mice from that era got pretty dank. I had one in college that was basically a science experiment at graduation.

mrgoosmoos,

not tinfoil at all, that’s a material choice that they made knowing what the result would be

this is intentional

I’ve had mine for 5 maybe 6 years with fairly regular use.

Cethin, do games w Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?

They’re very different, so you need to figure it out for yourself. Both are great, but we don’t know your tastes. I would recommend BG3 though, for what is worth.

However, if you’re strapped for cash, I would recommend playing indie games. They’re often more interesting than these larger budget games (though these two are exceptions to large budget games being shit), and they’re usually like $20 max. Most people can get more out of Factorio or Dwarf Fortress, for example, than they can out of these games, at a much lower price.

@nfreak@lemmy.ml avatar

And tbh since OP said they’re generally more into Soulslikes and such, Silksong comes out in 2 days for $20

BurntWits,
@BurntWits@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah I read about that after posting. I’ll probably pick that up honestly, but these two games are both super tempting too.
