I’m currently away from home and I’ve downloaded Resident Evil 2 (remake) onto my Steam Deck. I’m an hour or so in loving it so far! I’ve only ever played RE4 (the original version) before and it feels quite different - less incentive to shoot enemies.

I have played most of the originals, but haven’t played any of the remake yet. I have heard great things about the remakes though, so may go through all of them sometime.

Do share you opinions once you have finished the game.

So I finished Leon’s ‘half’ of the story yesterday. It was great! Loved all the puzzles (which had a classic videogame feel to them) as well as the various settings. It’s a beautiful looking game and the gunplay is very satisfying.

I was a bit disappointed to learn that playing as Claire is just the same thing again, although it does have a few different story beats. I don’t mind too much though as it seems like a fun game to play through multiple times.

This seems like a great way to remake an old game. Reminds me of FF7 remake in some respects.

Still working on preparing for the “final push” in TotK, didn’t play a whole lot again this week. When you only have around 25 shrines to go, finding them on a map that big without a guide can get really tedious, especially when most of the ones I’m finding now are in caves. They really like putting them in caves in this game, I’m noticing.

I may also start up one of the strategy RPGs I bought in Steam’s little strategy game sale the other week. I bought a bundle that includes Symphony of War, Dark Deity and Tyrant’s Blessing. Not sure which to try first, though. I had Symphony of War and Dark Deity on my wishlist already, but Tyrant’s Blessing also seems interesting.

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Oh yeah, that can be tough. The ones in the caves gave me trouble too, but I didn’t do all th shrines, so it wasn’t that big of an issue. Good luck!

I haven’t heard of any of these strategy RPGs, though if they are PC only, it makes sense. Will check them out.

I grabbed Death’s Door on a whim for $8 and I’m blown away. It has so much charm, the music and atmosphere are amazing and it feels great to play. If you like the old top-down Zelda games, don’t sleep on this one.

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I have heard great things about the game. It’s on my backlog, but with all the games I am playing don’t want to start another one before finishing at least one or two of these.

Obviously Splatoon 3, I’m going all out for Team Shiver!

Might play some Super Mario Odyssey in between since I recently completed it.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

When Big Man was first shown, it felt like he was the fan favourite, but since then it seems like Shiver is people’s favourite. What do you think?

experiencersinternational,
@experiencersinternational@lemmy.world avatar

To be honest, I’m kinda expecting Big Man to be the favourite still, there’s a lot of Big Man players.

I’m thankful that I’ve only had 2 mirror matches so far and neither of the other teams are rare to find

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Well, I am sure all of them have their fans, it’s just the impression I got from different posts on reddit.

Anyways, good luck with the splatfest!

Finnished Call of Cthulhu the past week, finally finished Prey this one (I’ve abandoned it for about a year), and between all of this I’m playing Baldur’s Gate 3. Now I want to play again the System Shock remake, I’m far in the game and I think I can finish it without much time.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Nice list of games. How are you liking System Shock remake? I have played Bioshock, so wanted to try System Shock too, but never got around to it.

What class are you using in BG 3?

rgalex,
@rgalex@lemmy.world avatar

I’m liking it a lot. I’ve never finished Bioshock, but I’ve played a few hours of it, so it may not be a fair comparison, but the environment feels bigger and more convoluted, everything is less linear. It’s more similar to Prey than Bioshock.

Also, the progression of the player is based on gadgets and weapons, there are no powers to level up by using points.

And with Baldur’s Gate I’m playing a thief which a master on almost every skill, but not the best in combat jajajaja.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Ah, that sounds fun. Will check out System Shock.

Oooh, a thief! Nice! You must have become pretty rich!

I’ve never played a monsters game but I am a huge DQ fan so I am very excited for this one. I wonder if you can catch big name bad guys like Zoma.

MonkCanatella, w Nintendo reportedly showed a demo of the ‘Switch 2’ console at Gamescom which included visuals comparable to the PS5 and Xbox Series X.

lol, 3 years into the current gen and switch 2 only competes. Seriously

maxprime,

Aside from possibly the N64 and GameCube, Nintendo has never tried to push technology in that way.

xyzzy, (edited )

And it’s been true since the very first console. The Master System was more powerful than the NES, and the Genesis/Mega Drive was more powerful than the Super NES (arguably; the Sega CPU was far more powerful than Nintendo’s). Same is true for its portables.

They’ve always prioritized per-unit margins. It’s a conservative approach, but it means profit on every console sold.

So there’s a 0% chance this console is actually as powerful as a PS5. However, there’s a good chance there are hardware and software techniques being used to upscale a lower resolution image.

I love playing ys games so much, the year+ wait after release asia release - for NISA to get their crap together is painful.

Rooty, w Chants of Sennaar - Launch Trailer - Nintendo Switch

The colors and the angles reminds me of a Moebius comic, which was most likely the intention.

Grangle1, w Chants of Sennaar - Launch Trailer - Nintendo Switch

Seeing the trailer I’m immediately reminded of Tunic, with its sort of top down, 2.5D perspective and what appears to be being thrown into a world where deciphering just the basics of what’s going on is half the challenge of the game due to a lore-based language barrier. Where Tunic was very much an homage to 2D Zelda, this game looks to take that concept in a more original direction. Looks interesting. I’d think about getting it if my backlog wasn’t a mile high.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, reminds me a bit of Fez. If we need to decipher the language, it would most probably be just substitution cipher on English, otherwise the game might become too complex, unless we just have to decipher a limited set of words.

Grangle1,

Well, the way Tunic works is that you don’t really decipher the language on your own to straight up read the characters, you work with pictures and other visual/environmental cues to figure out what it’s telling you. It would be akin to going to an Asian country that doesn’t use the Roman alphabet without any knowledge of the language and having to navigate things by pictures or trial-and-error until you start to pick things up on your own. You don’t decipher the words themselves, you pick up on the context, if that makes sense. It really was a large part of the fun of Tunic.

@_NetNomad@kbin.run avatar

i know conventional gamer wisdom says otherwise but i think this just goes to show how more horsepower just leads to diminishing returns at this point. people call the switch underpowered but it's best selling game is a wii u port! gone are the days of each generation looking infinitely better than the last

GeneralEmergency,

This was already established with the PSP vs 3DS.

yggstyle,

Ancient hardware. Complete market dominance.

Turns out battery life is incredibly important in the handeld market.

penquin, w Nintendo Switch hacked to run Windows 11 on Arm, and it's just about as awful as you can imagine

Windows 11 lags like shit on a laptop with an Intel i7 and an Nvidia mx130. Nintendo switch is basically the weakest handheld device on the market.

Steamymoomilk,

For context the nintendo switch uses the nvida tega x1 processor. Which has also been shiped on the nvidia shield. So for context the gaming console is using the equivent processor. FOR A ANDROID STREAMING BOX

for more details en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegra#Tegra_X1

penquin,

The switch has the worst graphics I’ve seen on a handheld. My kid has it and the games look like trash compared to my ps4, pc and even the steam deck.

R00bot,
@R00bot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

This is a crazy thing to say about a 7 year old handheld lmfaooooo

penquin,

Exactly, it’s 7 years old, so my argument stands. The switch is trash because it is very old and has weak graphics.

Penta,

Ah yes, because graphics is the only thing that defines how good games are

ChicoSuave,

Nintendo never hid this. The specs showed a Tegra X1 when Switch was released. It was always public knowledge that Switch is an Ouya with an ecosystem and released games.

None of your post is new but it’s like you want to drum up outrage that a company used easily available hardware that didn’t require custom hardware like Playstation or Xbox (which SHARE nearly identical AMD chipsets!)

Why get mad at the hardware choice for an 8 year old console?

BowserBasher, w Nintendo Switch Units Sold 139.36 million worldwide (as of December 31, 2023)

It shows how bad the WiiU failed when its software numbers are lower than the hardware numbers for the Switch.

You mean the other way round? Wii U hardware being lower than Switch software
