Not a huge fan of multiplayer games, but can be fun with friends.

As for people who don’t like live service games, Sony has mentioned multiple times that the budget for live service games is completely separate from single player games. The issue was that they previously put their good single player studios to making these games, as long as they get proper third party or specialised studios for these and leave their first party studios for first party, I am happy.

Day 501 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is some more Project Zomboid. Cable’s hand had to come off today. His right hand to be more specific. He got bitten and we had to rush for a emergency procedure. Jerry sawed it off and we had our friend on stand by. Cable just barely pulled through. I prepared everything in advance. Bandages, anti septic, the...

Wow, it’s weird to realise that there is so much depth and features in a game that look like this 😀

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Heh, true. When I first looked at it after hearing so much about it I thought it was a wrong game.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Ah, okay. Thanks for the info!

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, that will also require more work and animations for each feature like this. Much easier to do in a game like this.

Day 500 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. While i was doing my ACIII playthrough, i was watching the LoTR trilogy with my younger siblings. And you know what it reminded me of? This game. It feels like the Arkham Games meet Middle Earth. I never got very far into it though years ago when i first played, so i wanted to...

Ooh, a day late but still, congratulations on 500 posts!

Day 498 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Mario Kart 64. I was going to have a bunch more Halo screenshots setup for today, but i got fed up with Bazzite and suddenly hopped ships. I have officially switched over to CachyOS. I’m sorry to Bazzite, but i’m in love. This literally works so much better. OS Troubles aside. In the move i lost the Theater...

That’s a nice list. Did you finish all the games you started? Or drop some games too?

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

You don’t have to finish all the games. It’s okay to drop games you aren’t enjoying. In the long run, time is a much more scarce commodity than money.

This looks great. It may scratch that Skyrim itch.

Day 489 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Halo 3. I had this whole thing planned for today like i did with Reach, but the Cloud Flare outage stopped me from getting on (as of now pixelfed is still offline). I suppose i spent the time being productive at least. I wrote a few commands, one too upload pictures to Pixelfed from the terminal, one too sort...

Heh, don’t worry, that’s how everyone starts.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah. I think it’s because no matter how much you improve, you keep learning new stuff to make your code better, so it always feel like what you have already written is a mess.

Also, obligatory comic about code quality:

So DMCA takedowns are only for gameplay videos, they haven’t sent any takedown (or any other) notice to whoever is hosting / running / developing the custom server code.

It will be interesting to see how it progresses.

Day 485 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is some more Assassin’s Creed 3. After finishing up the modern segment (which was surprisingly short) I headed down to the basement to look at the new costumes the Remaster Provided. They had them on racks that were there in the first game. It made me wonder if they removed costumes for the racks or they added...

Oh yeah, the modern era in Black Flag era was pretty meh. Haven’t played any AC game after that so no idea about those.

Day 483 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Max Payne 2. I did the fun house today. Made Mona shoot a flamingo. Surprisingly the game went by really fast tonight. It took me a total of 40 minutes to do the funhouse and then manor sections, which i think are a total of 3 levels. I forget how short these games can be once you kind of know what you’re...

slimerancher,

But that would change the format of the title! And while it has evolved over the time, that would feel so weird!

Also, it’s sometimes fun to see the featured picture and guess what the game is 😀

Winter burrow SBI controversy angielski

Winter burrow on steam is being released today, (Nov 12th). I went to the forums to see complete chaos. People arguing and calling out the developers about using sweet baby inc. and hiding it, others wondering what the big deal is like myself. It could just be the anti woke gamers, but there were other complaints. I got the demo...

Day 481 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is some Assassin’s Creed III. This was what i had lined up to play after Max Payne 2, and initially i was going to play some more of that. But i had decided to set this up ahead of time. Then… i decided to make sure it works… and i kind of lost track of time. These games are kind of my Guilty pleasure. I...

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I liked the game when I played it and I never saw the Haytham twist coming either, I mean until the reveal it themselves. Also don’t remember that sign on his back.

I don’t think I have the stamina for these games anymore. I played Black Flag a few years back but didn’t like it and Black Flag is considered one of the best AC game by everyone.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I guess large library size can be a contributing factor too. I have tons of games in my backlog and not enough time, so prefer shorter and tighter experiences, which can sometimes be difficult since my favourite genre is RPG, but I have lost interest in games that doesn’t respect your time, which is most open world games.

There are always exceptions though, just got a Platinum for Ghost of Tsushima few months back. Though I think that only happened cause a friend of mine was also playing at the same time, so discussing the things he has done or I have done kept the interest going for much longer.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Well, as long as you are having fun! 😀

Day 480 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Max Payne 2. I discovered the -developerkeys flag so you know i had some fun with that while playing. I did this shot of Max diving over a landing which i really like. My steam keeps doing this weird bug where it crashes and reopens so i only got this shot and one of him nearly hitting the ground, but i still...

Today’s game is Project Zomboid. Me and my friends got back on the Milk Store save, we had a friend joining us later though so we had to make the drive home to pick him up. At the start of our trip we found this taxi. One of my friend’s adore collecting these things, and i enjoy collecting cars in this game. I am absolutely...

Today’s game is some more Max Payne 2. I made it all the way through the Apartments today. The latter half when you’re in that big apartment? It was hell. I ran out of pills at the final boss fight and was basically save scumming the entire fight move by move. Maybe Lem was onto something when he asked Max “What the fuck...

It’s interesting when games do that, though as someone who rarely replays game, I never really notice these things.

Day 474 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Max Payne 2. ever since i started doing a Theme for this month i’ve been wanting to play this because of it’s fall theme (that and the first game in winter). Now that Halloween is over it’s the perfect time for this. I even installed the widescreen fix....

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Oooh, Max Payne!

I played them when they were released, and they were such great games for their time. Don’t remember much about the story though, some dream sequences, and there was some subway in start of the first game I believe, remember trying the slow-mo from different angles there.

Looking forward to play the remakes!

Day 472 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s screenshot is from Shift at Midnight. The game has a Demo up on Steam now. It’s this game where you run a gas station’s graveyard shift, only the twist is that some customers are Doppleganger’s who will attack the gas station if they manage to checkout. So you have to check them and make sure they arent a double...

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

We all go through time like that. If you like single player games, what helped me was getting a Switch (I had almost quit gaming before that), the ability to play on a handheld which you can pause (put in sleep) anywhere is a godsend. Everyone is different though, but can be worth a try. You can try getting a SteamDeck, and see if that works for you.

At the end of the day, if playing short rounds of Death by Daylight is what you enjoy the most, nothing wrong with just keep doing that.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

This is pretty much why I can’t play much PC games either (even though there are some genres I love that work bes on PC). Handheld works best, or sitting on a couch in front of TV.

I love tablets as a good general purpose device, but don’t have much experience with remote play. Just check how well it works with controllers and the latency / lag.

Day 468 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is some more Project Zomboid. We decided to venture out of the safety of our milk store so one of my friend’s who is larping a fireman stripper could get some more Firemen gear. We took a roadtrip to Rosewood too the firestation there. What ended up happening was it got late (in game and irl), so we decided to...

Is “Fireman Stripper” a sustainable job in Zombie apocalypse? Just curious…

Oooh, Cable is back! According to the lore, do the characters just move from one world to another or is that some other guy with some other adopted son Cable?

Today’s game is Resident Evil 2 Remake. I’ve been wanting to play this for a bit for this month and finally got around to it these last few days. I made it as far as when the Big Grey Guy in the trench coat shows up. He really threw a wrench in everything because i went from having a few safe spots too not being safe...

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

That “Big Grey Guy” is one of the major reason I haven’t tried the game. And well the fact that I don’t like horror, but I am going to blame the Big Grey Guy!

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Mainly play on console, but I’ll keep this in mind for future. Thanks for the tip.

Day 460 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Project Zomboid. Me and two other friends decided to start a new save and just play together for a bit. We ended up holing up in a Milk Store. I broke apart tables in the nearby houses for supplies to barricade the windows and my friend put up curtains. Overall? It cleaned up very nicely....

Paczynski says they once hired a private investigator to find someone living off the grid in the UK. He had unknowingly inherited the rights to several games, but was super supportive of “preserving his family’s legacy” when GOG tracked him down.

So, it happened once. And they hired one private investigator. Not that it isn’t interesting, but why exaggerate everything?

Remaining quotes from article:

“To be perfectly honest, it’s harder than we thought it would be,” Paczynski explained. “What we’ve found out is that games and how they work has deteriorated way faster than what we thought. And we are not talking only about the game not launching. We are talking about more subtle things as well, like the game not supporting modern controllers, or the game not supporting ultra-widescreen or modern resolutions, or even a simple thing like not being able to minimise the game, which is an essential feature today.”

Pacyznski says digital rights management (DRM) features are especially frustrating to circumvent, which means they’re working as designed. Heck, some rather famous games are unplayable without third-party patches because of DRM — any old Xbox-to-PC that’s saddled with a “Games for Windows Live” log-in comes to mind.

Pacyznski suggests that triple-A developers remove DRM from games after a few years to make life easier for future game preservationists. Of course, this will never happen because executives don’t care about preserving games.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Well, the quote specifically says “a private investigator”.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Okay, so grammatically, in perfect tense we can use plural to mention a thing that has happened at least (or exactly) once? Wouldn’t using a plural imply multiple, when the known fact is singular?

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

That’s an interesting point. You are right about that.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

It did feel like exaggeration to me, but it could be my bias. May feel differently about it later.

You are right about the fact that it could be an agency. Maybe I was just being pedantic 😀

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

lol, same here. Except leaning towards super annoyed because of some work related things.

Day 456 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is some more Undead Nightmare. I was doing the side missions i need to do in order to progress and i ended up finding War. It was a difficult job to break him. I don’t think it takes more time for the Mythical ones but i did get bucked off the first time. Luckily i was able to get the horse wrangled up quickly...

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

That sounds scary.

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

This feels like how it will be if there is a real-life Zombie apocalypse. It’s different than playing games, we won’t be killing the hordes, we will just be scared as hell and trying to run as fast as we can.

Day 450 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is Don’t Stop, Girlypop! (Steam Link). I saw this game somewhere, i don’t remember where though. It looked super fun though. So i decided to take a brief break from my Horror Month for this (unless the 2000s are scary to you, in which case prepare to be spooked)....

Day 447 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing angielski

Today’s game is some more Silent Hill f. I’m loving the game’s New Game+ so far. I won’t dive into spoilers, but i really like it. I love when game’s handle their New Game+ in that way. I will say though that if you’re not the kind of person to play New Game+ or enjoy multiple playthroughs it will hurt your...
