ryathal, do games w I don't think it's possible for me to complete this Steam achievement

Is it not possible to just run in a circle endlessly in the game?

schnurrito, do gaming w how would you rate your own beehaw username as a minecraft seed?

you do realize that people from other instances than beehaw can post here too? :D

Comment105,

I’m from Estonian Lemmy, and I’m not even Estonian!

Gamers_mate,

Hi not even Estonian I tried your minecraft seed and it spawns me in a snowy taiga. :) https://beehaw.org/pictrs/image/b7bd54e4-c24b-4eef-a17a-4c4dfe352641.webp

LallyLuckFarm,

D…Dad?

Comment105,

Your dad is a real motherfucker, Lally.

If my advice means anything, don’t get reunited.

Gamers_mate,

Is this a movie reference?

Comment105,

You’re a motherfucker with your human rights violating humor. Also, dads are motherfuckers. Also, the user who thought you were theirs shouldn’t get back in contact with a dad that would subject a stranger to that kind of humor.

Gamers_mate,

Are you okay? I think this is a misunderstanding this is just some wholesome hi insert name I’m Dad type joke. I can assure you it has nothing to do with human rights.

Gamers_mate,

Your dad is a real motherfucker

I don’t get the reference but the seed does spawn you at a regular forest and an old growth birch forest. https://beehaw.org/pictrs/image/32338256-290d-4e10-b9c1-92a26230b7b6.webp

Gamers_mate,

Yeah I said beehaw because I was posting it in a beehaw community though this can apply to anyone who sees this in the fediverse. Would be a silly thing to gatekeep. :)

@Sidyctism2@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

am i dumb or do those two achievements have the exact same requirement?

Gingernate,

Circumference of the earth 24k miles Distance to the moon 239k miles

Not sure why it shows the saame number in the achievement kinda weird…

DannyBoy,

Both is percentage of players that got the achievement I believe.

Gingernate,

40075020 would be a wild percentage

DannyBoy,

Ah I missed that part.

Kerb, do gaming w how would you rate your own beehaw username as a minecraft seed?
@Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

i only took a glance at the chunkbase so far, but kerb seems to be a 9 out of 10

a frozen ocean with lots of taigas and snowy plains and mushroom islands so close to spawn.
i only dont like the ice spikes

Gamers_mate,

Nice I just had a look at the kerb seed and you start in a village which is another thing I like.

Not every achievement is meant to be attainable (by everyone)

spankmonkey,
@spankmonkey@lemmy.world avatar

Unattainable achievements aren’t achievments, they are lies.

Some might be extremely difficult or tedious though.

Voyajer,
@Voyajer@lemmy.world avatar

I should qualify it as unattainable for most, though these two are just grindfests.

donuts, do games w I don't think it's possible for me to complete this Steam achievement

These achievements are just filler, preying on the people who feel bad if they don’t get them all.

You can see in your own screenshot that 0.1% of players have completed it. So yes, it’s possible.

Worth it? No.

False,

You can use certain programs to give yourself achievements. Could be that

donuts, (edited )

I mean, it’s like a hobby. If you are unlocking them with a program you’re just cheating on yourself. If you feel like you need to cheat to make yourself feel better about something that doesn’t impact anyone else, then I think you should reflect a bit on that and ask yourself why you wanted it in the first place.

But that’s just like, my opinion, man. It doesn’t really harm anyone in the end. I just think achievements are used as carrots on a stick, exploiting the human psyche of “number go up = dopamine” to make the player think the game has more value than it does, or is “worth the price” because you got so many hours out of it (grinding for those last shitty achievements).

DesolateMood,

I think it’s fair for someone to want to cheat in achievements of this nature. OP put over 100 hours into this game and is only 0.1% of the way there. If I put 100 hours into a game, I would also want to fast track past these two middle fingers the devs threw in

donuts,

It’s not even their progress, it’s the percentage of all the people that have access to the game: steamcommunity.com/stats/2884590/achievements. So it’s probably worse

False,

I did it for the original Killing Floor because they had class features locked behind achievements.

Blxter, do games w I don't think it's possible for me to complete this Steam achievement
!deleted4407 avatar

Is there an in-game tracker for how much farther to go? If not you might be able to keep track here completionist.me/steam/app/2884590 . As an avid achievement hunter I don’t see a problem with achievements like this in most cases there are probably ways to “cheese” them I don’t know about this game however. (Steam guides can be useful for finding what other players have used)

Edit: looks like there are no guides for this game I tried to look on mobile so disregard that haha

If you were traveling at a constant 100 mph, it would take you 249 hours to travel around the circumference of the Earth, and 2,389 hours to reach the Moon. If the distances are actually accurate then these achievements should be nigh on impossible to get in any reasonable amount of time. That now 0.2% of players have them means the distances aren’t accurate, that they used an achievement unlocker, cheated in-game, or have a fuckton of playtime.

Voroxpete,

Never underestimate the “fuckton of playtime” option. Some people just get really into a game.

Artyom,

My money’s on stick binding and leaving it for days.

@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

100 hours for only 0.1%. I don’t particularly like achievements anyway but these ones are just stupid.

shadowedcross,
@shadowedcross@sh.itjust.works avatar

That 0.1% is the number of players who have the achievement, not OP’s completion progress. But it’s also probably very small.

B0NK3RS,
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

My mistake then. I guess that shows how uninterested in achievements I am…

SolarMonkey,

That’s like one of the super grindy JRPG titles I have (100 hours or so to get through the story). To get all the achievements, you’d have to play through an absolute minimum of 9 times, because you need to kill the end boss without taking damage on each difficulty level, and they unlock as you go. But you’d actually be grinding bosses for ages trying to get them without taking damage…

The game was ok, but I honestly can’t see wanting to play it twice let alone 9 times… there’s definitely a reason almost nobody has those achievements…

princessnorah, do gaming w My Experience With The ROG Ally Z1E (Windows/Bazzite)
@princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I have a Legion Go, not a ROG Ally, so I may be wrong here. But Handheld Daemon (HHD) (included OOTB with handheld images) supports fine TDP/fan controls. You get to it by long-pressing the button that brings up the Quick Access Menu in big picture mode.

xavier666,

Hi, you’re absolutely correct and sorry for being unclear.

I mean precise TDP control (16W or 17W) and custom fan curves. I’ve used HHD, it’s also good. Most people simple switch between power saving / balanced / performance but wanted to go down further to extract a little more juice out of the device.

SimpleDeckyTDP is a bit tricky (open desktop mode - open terminal - paste command) to install but offers more customisation.

princessnorah,
@princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

HHD allows those things though? https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/134674c4-c30b-470b-8800-d61ec900c3e4.webp

It even hooks into the Steam TDP controls: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/6c050c1e-6d02-4cad-9eff-f6d29f5e49f2.webp

(disclaimer: again, this is a legion go, i cannot confirm that for the rog ally)

xavier666,

It’s possible I have to RTFM.

I checked the Bazzite documentation for the Ally and it says SimpleDeckyTDP provides more features than HHD so I didn’t experiment with it at all. I prefer using the Decky plugin mainly because it fits with the Bazzite theme better :P

Garibaldee, do games w Nintendo Confirms Backwards Compatibility for Switch Successor!
@Garibaldee@lemm.ee avatar

I’m guessing this is from consumer pressure, until the Switch people definitely bought more physical copies of games and the minority of people got digital versions of DS/Wii-U games, but now so many people are using nintendo online and buying virtual copies people probably would not buy the next console if they had to buy the games they liked again.

variants,

probably they just dont want to make new games and just want to keep expanding switch online, but still want to sell consoles as well

Blackmist,

I mean, Nintendo have often been fairly good with back compatibility.

If the architecture and form factor of physical media isn’t really changing, there’s not a lot of need to block older games from running.

They’re already on ARM, and there’s not much better for mobile gaming and GPUs have been fairly similar for a long time now.

The more interesting question is: will the Switch games get a performance boost on Switch 2? And it’s probably going to depend on the game. I’d imagine they’ll test a lot of the more popular titles, and anything with issues just gets it disabled until the developer patches it. It’d be nice to play TotK at a decent frame rate. Impressive as it is, it certainly chugs.

iAmTheTot, do games w Fields of Mistria review: A boring, soulless Stardew reskin

If you are looking for Stardew-likes, I have been enjoying Coral Island. Full disclosure, I think it’s bullshit they they market it as version “1.1” when it is so very clearly not finished, but honestly after 400+ hours in Stardew I’ve been enjoying it despite its very present jank.

If Stardew is a 10/10 for me, I’d give Coral Island a 6.5/10 and mind you that’s on a real 0-10 scale, not the 5-10 scale usually used lol.

Buttflapper,

See Coral Island is so cute and unique that I personally felt it was just perfect. It wasn’t so closely resembling SDV that I felt like I was playing a bootleg version haha

iAmTheTot,

Yes, I love its characters and some of the ways it diverged from Stardew. But it has a lot of undeniable jank and is objectively unfinished. Mind you that hasn’t stopped me from approaching 100 hours in it, but I would feel dishonest not mentioning it.

CHOPSTEEQ, do games w Fields of Mistria review: A boring, soulless Stardew reskin

Not to belittle Stardew, a game I adore, but Stardew is itself very much cribbed, as a desperately needed spiritual successor to the Harvest Moon/Rune Factory games. I don’t intend on checking out fields of mistria so I’ll just take your word on the rest.

Impressions from watching someone play it: it looks like a clone of Stardew Valley. The music isn’t terrible but I wouldn’t say it’s good. Some mechanics from Stardew Valley that weren’t easy enough were changed, like fishing. I’m not sure that’s bad for everyone, it can just be a casual game to relax.

Buttflapper,

it can just be a casual game to relax.

Fair point. I didn’t find it relaxing, it just felt like a gutted version of Stardew that treats me like I’m not smart enough to figure anything out. Everything has an unskivable tutorial like blacksmithing and cooking. You can’t buy any of your own basic recipes. It just sends them to you automatically in the mail, which is extremely annoying because it undermines player choice. That’s what was kinda annoying to me. Maybe if it was more like old-school RuneScape it would be more relaxing ? That game has no recipes, you just level up and know the recipe by default.
