kbity, w Meta cancels Quest Pro, stops development of Quest Pro 2 | ZDNET
@kbity@kbin.social avatar

Honestly, the biggest problem with the Quest headsets is that they're made by Facebook. Sorry, "Meta". The Quest 2 stand-alone headset would be an obvious recommendation to anyone curious about virtual reality if it weren't a Mark Zuckerberg product.

conciselyverbose,

Yep. It kills me, but I won't do it. It otherwise is a nice little piece of tech, but the price of dealing with Facebook is a lot bigger deal to me than the price tag in cash.

xpsking, w What Happened to Dolphin on Steam?
@xpsking@midwest.social avatar

Cool to see the ui intended for the steam release is still being released. I don’t think dolphin really needs to be on steam if this is coming. It’s pretty easy to download a program outside steam lol

Daefsdeda, w What Happened to Dolphin on Steam?

Before I read I thought:" of course they got removed."

But it was quite an interesting read and apparently they were quite legally safe. Sadly valve doesnt wanna risk it.

Summzashi, w Epic Game Store Sale: Get Elder Scrolls Online and Murder by Numbers for Free

Pretty sure ESO is a free to play game

oldlamps,

You still need to buy the client and the expansions you want to play, but not required to pay monthly like some other MMOs

Summzashi,

Huh when did that happen? I thought it became entirely free to play not long after release.

arc, w Epic Game Store Sale: Get Elder Scrolls Online and Murder by Numbers for Free

I’ll give the game a go but I’ve played so many MMOs to know the warning signs of a game using grind (travel, upkeep, etc.). If that happens I’ll be gone as fast as I signed up.

And I say that as a veteran of Asherons Call, Everquest, EQ 2, Lord of the Rings Online, Dark Age of Camelot, World of Warcraft, A Tale in the Desert, Company of Heroes, Company of Villains, Guild Wars and many more. I think I played EQ for 18 months on subscription but the amount of grind convinced me I’m not going to put up with that any more. When those other games resorted to the same BS I was gone.

oldlamps,

There’s a lot of QoL stuff, and the dialog is all fully voice acted so the emphasis is really more on exploring the world and story.

I’ve been playing it at my own pace for years, and never worry much about what level I’m at or things like that

Does ESO have a ‘story’ you can play through? I’ve seen it pop up a few times over the years and all I know about it is that it can become a massive time sink haha.

the_postminimalist,

Yes, it has plenty. In the base game alone you have:

  • Main story line (with Molag Bal being the main antagonist)
  • A story line for each of the three alliances (you can even play through the other alliances’ storylines even if youre not part of them)
  • Guild storylines like Mages Guild and Fighters Guild
  • A separate storyline based in the zone of Craglorn (south eastern Hammerfell)
  • Plenty of side quests everywhere

And then with DLC/expansions, the amount and quality of storylines grows by a lot.

But I don’t even play for the stories. The raiding is very fun and challenging. I don’t play the game like a time sink. I just log in for my scheduled raids and log out, and I play at a pretty high level. It’s one of the less grindy MMOs. They’ve reduced RNG related stuff by a lot over the years.

I’m always happy to help out anyone on PC NA

I really enjoyed murder by numbers. It’s a visual novel which is normally not my thing but, the characters and story were fun.

toastus, w Epic Game Store Sale: Get Elder Scrolls Online and Murder by Numbers for Free

Are those any good?

Rynelan,

If you like MMO games with good singleplayer gameplay you can’t miss with ESO. Base game covers a lot. The expansion packs will be even more.

And unlike a lot of MMO games. No monthly charges necessary but possible. If you decide to sub to ESO+ you get access to expansion stuff except the lastest one and you won’t get access to the classes that got introduced in the expansions.

But… you’ll only need to buy the lastest expansion collection set to get all of that. The upgrade pack is only for people who got the previous expansions already.

xcxcb,

For free? Yeah ESO is a good deal.

However, be aware of its massive shortcomings and once you begin to feel the bite of the horrendous cash store be prepared to ditch it and move on. At a certain point it’s just a disappointment considering how great it could be if they weren’t trying to nickel and dime you constantly (and it’s far more than a nickle or dime too).

yads, w Kickstarter rival Backerkit exits beta on the heels of a successful Gloomhaven campaign | Polygon

I didn’t realize backerkit was a Kickstarter rival. I always thought they were like a companion to them.

Daefsdeda, w Stardew Valley 1.6 - new festival, items, dialogues and more

Love this game. And its still getting updates?!?

FracturedEel,

He said this was the last one before he focuses on haunted choclatier

@ThunderingJerboa@kbin.social avatar

It is a bit unfortunate there won't be any attempts for multiplayer in that new game though (at least by the devs, they likely know the modding community will do it).

Tb0n3,

The amount of free “DLC” for the game puts it head and shoulders above the competition. Concerned Ape made a pledge and stuck to it.

Mic_Check_One_Two, w Nintendo Switch Used to Locate 15-Year-Old Missing Girl | MP1st

TL:DR: She was kidnapped by a 29 year old guy. Kidnapper allowed her to bring her Switch. She connected it to the hotel wifi, and one of her friends saw she was online. That friend reported it to the investigators, who were able to get IP location info and track the console down. They surrounded the hotel room and captured the kidnapper on the scene. She was missing for 11 days.

FracturedEel,

Jesus, glad they found her

keeb420,

That's a smart friend for saying something.

Onyxonblack, w Jagged Alliance 3 Reviews | OpenCritic

This game is truly amazing! It plays great with a controller, and there’s already a bunch of Workshop Mod support.

Aurenkin, w PS2’s Two Towers was the coolest way to miss the whole point of the Lord of the Rings

To be honest as awesome as this game was I just want a new Battle for Middle Earth game.

Mutelogic, w PS2’s Two Towers was the coolest way to miss the whole point of the Lord of the Rings

Good write up! It certainly made me nostalgic for the games of that era.

Cqrd, w PS2’s Two Towers was the coolest way to miss the whole point of the Lord of the Rings

I expected this to be bashing from the title, but it took a pleasant turn. Makes me want to play the game now.
