ElPussyKangaroo,

Glorious. I absolutely would love such reels at the end credits of a game.

Maybe even simulated bloopers like with the original Toy Story credits. To watch these characters act like actors would be hilarious.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Haven’t played L.A. Noire yet. Is it worth the money and time?

ElPussyKangaroo,

Alrightey.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Okay. Will do.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Bloopers for Mario?

ElPussyKangaroo,

Nois

ElPussyKangaroo,

Interesting

Edit:

So, I had a look at it… It feels like a Blooper reel made for the game… The Toy Story one I believe started off with them using bloopers from the VA sessions.

But nonetheless, to have such content requires the game itself being fully finished before the deadline. This is the basic requirement we lack currently, so such stuff will only add to the stress of the devs.

ElPussyKangaroo,

YO MAM-

ElPussyKangaroo,

I recently finished playing Deliver Us Mars. I’m happy with it for the most part, but it only reinforced my suspicion that Unreal Engine games are not being optimised well enough 🫠

In case anyone wishes to know what I thought of the game:

The story is fine. It feels like so many problems would be solved with a simple conversation and characters make decisions impulsively. The voice acting is spectacular, and the background music, while not cinematic by any stretch of the imagination, was definitely really good for setting the mood.

Part of my review from Backloggd

ElPussyKangaroo, (edited )

Fair enough.

I’ll have to take a look at GoG anyway… I don’t remember but I heard it’s like an aggregator of some sort too, right? Like, you can access games from your steam account too or something?

Edit: Bruh this is dope.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Edit 2: (replied because I got some error when editing comment a second time…)

Okay nevermind. Thought it was too good to be true… why open with an in-app browser?

ElPussyKangaroo,

Hmm…

I have never used a launcher before (for obvious reasons as mentioned in my post), so I found the idea of a separate launcher dumb in the first place. I have used it in recent times thanks to Epic’s free games. Finished two of the Tomb Raider trilogy.

Like, I’m fine with a store, but I gotta open the launcher to launch the game? On Windows, with the Tile based Start Menu, I kind of thought it was a terrible idea NGL. I gotta open, wait for it to load, open the library, then click to run, THEN it’ll open…

Plus, if I want to track progress, it’s a hassle because I can’t track without the damn launcher…

ElPussyKangaroo,

Hmm…

I’ll be honest, I definitely prefer having everything on one platform for convenience. This is in second place; right after letting me play a game directly from the icon without having to open the damn launcher in the first place.

Also, I am not well educated about the technicalities of Steam or GoG, so all I can say is I’m enjoying the cool factor of GoG combining my accounts in one place. Kinda bummed that Epic’s integration doesn’t have game time and achievement sync… But that’s probably an Epic thing.

Also also, fuck yeah! If it’s free, I’m in 😂.

ElPussyKangaroo,

I guess so… Unless a company is objectively terrible, I guess it does end up being “subjective”.

For example, I like the idea of Linux, but am happy that things work on Windows. And MacOS is too restrictive for my tastes.

Now, surely there are objective reasons for why Linux is better than the others. But the entry point issue for me is that each distro is different, and while I love customisability, I cannot expend energy on setting up my distro at the moment… (Soon.)

Plus, games work on Windows. I do plan to dual boot when I get a better PC, but not yet.

And fuck Apple (subjective, but I don’t wike em). So, yeah 🫡.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Epic doesn’t have the game time sync, but that’s an Epic issue I believe.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Playnite looks interesting.

Does it have support for linking Backloggd accounts or similar such platforms?

ElPussyKangaroo,

Fair enough I guess… I only use Epic for the free games, so I can’t say I’ve spent much time genuinely looking at the user experience 😅.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Definitely a terrible idea.

Using money to jump ahead in the line is a terrible mindset. Provide good features, you’ll get your recognition.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Didn’t know about heroic… Gonna check that out.

Also, wow. You’re the dude that appears in comment sections with well-formatted paragraphs 💯.

Appreciate your service.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Fair points.

ElPussyKangaroo,

My first purchase when I’m earning enough to spend on entertainment will be a good device. The second will be games that I can either physically keep or digitally store on physical drives.

Let’s hope that happens next year 💯

ElPussyKangaroo,

Yeah, what is up with that? What’s wrong with Epic and Linux?

I remember reading that they bought Rocket League and then removed Linux support. Really dumb strategy.

ElPussyKangaroo,

UT = Unreal Tournament, yes?

My dad got me that game on his old laptop when I was a kid. It barely ran, but boy was it exciting ❤️.

The Plasma gun was my favourite 🫡. Especially in that space level… The one where you could jump outside the windows.

I have a bone to pick with Epic regarding Unreal Engine as well. Terrible optimisation. Any game I play, if made using UE, is terrible.

I’ve played the first two of the Tomb Raider trilogy on medium on my 4GB GTX 1650, i7 9th Gen, 16GB RAM laptop. This device has pushed me through my engineering and still continues to run most of my work. It also runs Forza Horizon 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2 good enough.

Yet I install Deliver Us Mars, a game with a much smaller scale, and my beautiful beast starts to stutter. 🫠🫠🫠

ElPussyKangaroo,

I might be on the same trajectory too if my experience worsens 🫡.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Oh yeah. No, absolutely not… I logged in…

I installed one game, uninstalled another.

Waiting to get time to play using GoG soon.

Also, do we know if there’s any integration with services like IGDB?

ElPussyKangaroo,

Wow. That’s understandably frustrating.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Regarding the user reviews, I would much rather prefer stores integrating with existing sites like IGDB rather than have independent review systems.

But that’s fine I guess.

ElPussyKangaroo,

No. You can claim it for free for the next 24hrs

ElPussyKangaroo,

Oh. 🫠

ElPussyKangaroo,

What is up with new games? I have a Predator Triton 300; i7 9th Gen, 16GB/512GB. All games get installed on the SSD instead of the HDD.

I played the new Tomb Raider trilogy (still playing the last one, no spoilers) and it ran smoothly on Medium (some unnecessary stuff turned off) most of the times.

Tried playing new game called Deliver us Mars, disaster. It stutters every. Fucking. Time. ON LOW! What the Fuck?

ElPussyKangaroo,

💀

ElPussyKangaroo,

I see… But why the dependency on vram?

Also, regarding the graphics: Tomb Raider is a huge game with large maps and heavy graphics. Ran fine.

Deliver us Mars is an Unreal Engine game made by a relatively small studio.

I feel like Unreal is to blame for this… Idk if I’m right tho.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Deliver us Mars is barely anything compared to Tomb Raider. I’m honestly shocked that TR ran smoothly on my device.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Damn. You just can’t win, can you? 😞

ElPussyKangaroo,

It’s kinda sad that all the in-house engines are being abandoned… Especially since Unreal is a one-size-fits-all engine. It’s not suitable for all games if optimised gameplay is an expectation…

Also, yes. I didn’t understand initially when I heard about the Unreal look, but goddamn I see it everywhere now…

ElPussyKangaroo,

Wow. Just… Wow.

ElPussyKangaroo,

Can I upvote this two more times please?

Fan Ports PlayStation Classic [WipeOut], Dares Sony To Shut Him Down And Make Its Own (kotaku.com) angielski

WipeOut was Sony’s initial first-party exclusive for the original PlayStation when it launched back in 1995. The anti-gravity racing game was phenomenal. Now it’s abandoned. So one dedicated programmer took it upon himself to excavate the game’s leaked source code and make it playable for free in any web browser....

ElPussyKangaroo,

Why can’t we get a law going that if you stop supporting some software product, game or otherwise, you should open source it and hand over control to the public?
