Day 366 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Today’s game is Zomboid. Yesterday was a lot of fun, and i had fun seeing everyone’s opinions. I saw Zomboid mentioned a few times again yesterday and i got really in the mood to bring back Jerry and Cable. It’s been a hot minute since i played Jerry i think, so for anyone who hasn’t seen him before: Jerry Attricks...

Day 365 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing (One Year Anniversary!)

Today’s the Day! The 1 year anniversary. Today’s game is Halo 3, I decided the best way to celebrate with a new year would be by kicking back and relaxing with some of my friends. We have here what we call our Spartan B-Team. We suck absolute ass, and are the last ones they’d call for the job. But we’re… we’re...

I almost considered Zomboid for tonight lol. I didn’t end up doing it though because my Wi-Fi is abhorrent and it would have taken too long to install. Thanks for the support too! Seeing familiar faces like yours throughout the year has gotten nice

@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I think I’d like to give some more indie games a try. Maybe I’ll set a “New Year’s resolution” for this anniversary to try some more? I heard of one called Signalis that sounded intresting

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you. It’s definitely a major undertaking from me and I’m glad to have made it this far

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m going to sleep in late as a reward to myself lol. If tomorrow’s screenshot is something relaxing like Minecraft or Animal Crossing everyone will know why

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I did have Rocket League on PS4 before it went F2P. If my controller actually worked I’d be down to download it again. All my PS4 controllers seemed curse to suffer a horrible fate though

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks for looking out for me! I appreciate it. I try to regularly assess my life and how it’s going to see if I can reasonably continue. So rest assured i try to keep watch from letting this take a toll on my life

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I wanted to do something laid back to mark the occasion. With the Best of section I wanted to just have a normal screenshot for the people that only look at the main ones

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah. That’s something I prefer about these over streams or video. I think the streaming I mentioned would be something entirely disconnected and different from this. Plus I get it, I much prefer reading things over watching them, it’s easier for me to follow along

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It’s good! There’s a remaster on Epic, but honestly played the original on Steam and it still holds up well. It goes on sale cheap every sale season too

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I have a bit of programming experience (and it’s my major too) so I’m confident I can do it! I know though that I can ask the community and they’ll be able to help if I need it too

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

The best of isn’t necessarily a ranking, but I’d still certainly suggest uncharted 4. It’s an awesome experience

I’ve always taken a lot of screenshots to show friends. So much so I have a huge backlog of screenshots. Initially it started as just sharing the backlog but it turned into taking screenshots to share. I play with controller though so screenshots are usually just PlayStation Button + Right Trigger for me. I’m especially fond of games with Photo Modes though

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Do you have any suggestions? I’m embarrassed to admit it, and it definitely shows my age range but the last Indie game I really remember playing was Five Nights At Freddy’s and Doki Doki Literature Club. So I have a lot to catch up on

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve always wanted to stream. I like doing “public entertainment” things that let me entertain people and maybe help them when things are tough like others have for me.

I’ve very much come to learn though that perfection is the enemy of progress every time I’ve started

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It looks interesting. I’m a sucker for things that emulate desktops like that so I’m for sure going to pick it up with the next Steam sale

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m in the same boat with the Backlog lmao. I just keep buying things on sale. Just this recent steam sale i probably bought like another 10 games

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It feels like as I get older time passes a lot faster. One day I’ll blink and I’m suddenly graduating with my Masters and have a job or something

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m excited to continue. I’ve had a few ideas, I’m just not sure how to implement them

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

RPCS3 runs like a miracle if you have the specs. If you can I’d suggest it. I’m kind of contemplating setting it up myself just to play them again. Or maybe trying that PS4 emulator I’ve heard so much about.

Alternatively, I bought my PS3 used for around $60 on eBay. And this is one of the models that can be soft modded with CFW so if you’d like to acquire it with “alternative” methods it’s an option. But even then, I was able to get disc copies of the second and third games for around $10 apiece

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’d say it’s more so that I play a game and I’ll see something that makes me go “wow that’s cool”. So I’ll take a screenshot to share with friends. And I’ve been doing this for years. And I only have like 20 screenshots for a game at the end of the day. And initial initially It just started me showing off the backlog.

But it kind of turned into doing new screenshots every day. And I’m a college student, who right now doesn’t have a job. So, I have a lot of free time.

I have considered doing a blog. Maybe not YouTube reviews. Very much for me this is more like “here’s a cool thing I like. I like this. here’s why” and I feel like reviews, while they have their own merit, kind of take away from that. Because some of the games that I have played, I think there’s no denying that they’re bad games. I still like them though.

Though now I’m typing that, I suppose offering my opinion on these games as in a way made me a sort of reviewer. So regardless of whether I want to or not, my words hold some weight

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It very much was a night of celebration. I went out and got pizza and played some more Halo 3 with friends before sleeping in. Very much though if I did end up streaming, I think it would be disconnected from these screenshots. It would be its own separate project because I’d like it to be able to stand on its own. I’d probably keep it disconnected entirely. Probably even its own account.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It’s been very nice seeing familiar faces like yours through the screenshots!

I’m absolute ass at names, so profile pictures are the only way I can really remember people. So between you, the Monster Hunter Slime Guy, and the guy with the Sonic Pride PFP it’s been very nice having some consistent faces. And I’m sure there’s others too that I just can’t remember the name of since they have generic profile picture. But I’m glad to have them there too. So basically I appreciate you too

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’d say yeah. It still holds up really well even after all this time. There is some product placement, but honestly, it’s not intrusive enough that I feel like it takes away from the experience. Honestly, in some respect, I think it adds too. The only issue I really noticed Was that in the non-remastered version, the cut scenes are video files and you can tell they were compressed

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Fair enough, i can appreciate being harmlessly pedantic lol. I appreciate the support though, thank you

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve really been interest in trying Claire Obscur: Expedition 33 lately. I’ve been holding off on reading anything about it to avoid spoilers though. I might look into Skald: Against the Black Priory. I’m very picky about my RPGs but generally story heavy ones i enjoy

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I tried the demo and couldn’t really get into Hades unfortunately. Though it probably had my lack of interest in Greek Mythology working against it. Maybe i’ll try picking it up again though, that was years ago and i’ve found my tastes have changed

Day 364 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Tomorrow is the day! Today’s game is Halo. Specifically the public multiplayer of Halo 3. We also did some CE but Steam seems to be feuding with anything microsoft recently and has so issues with the screenshots, so i had to go in with theater and take them that way....

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It’s a very good and foundational Halo Experience in my opinion. It does the basics really well

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, that’s the same issue we have too lol. I’m a sucker for basic team slayer though. CTF is a lot of fun too though. Some of my most memorable matches came from that

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Today’s the Day!

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

lol. I’d consider it or some similar joke entry but I doubt it works over proton

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It’s exciting. I’ve been planning my post in a document ahead of time to make sure it’s good

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m not a fan of it either tbh. It’s practices are predatory and honestly I feel like game developer on there get away with way too many things that normal developers would get a lot of flak for. I’d be down to do it for a one off joke, but honestly even then I’d be a little hesitant because I feel like I’d still be promoting it even if it’s meant to be a little joke

Day 363 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

2 Day’s until a year! Today’s game is Red Dead Redemption 1. The Last of Us was initially planned for today, but the crashing kept getting on my nerves that i decided to step back for a sec. I’m going to try and look into a fix because i’m really enjoying but those freezes seem particularly horrendous today for some...

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I feel you with the plot lol. I had a save all the way in Chapter 5 of the second game and lost it, and just kept picking it up and putting it back down again (which i do for a lot of things looking back). It took a whole new prescription for me to power through it

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m planning too just do a best of post. I’ll have the main screenshot be the usual, and then the rest is all a best of. I’ll probably talk about the game’s i’ve beaten since then and look back on them, maybe filter it down to my favorites though because there’s a lot of games since then

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m excited! Longest i think i’ve ever done something. I honestly expected too just go to sleep one day and forget to actually post the screenshots. It’s a little reassuring to know that i made it this far, and a little scary too seeing how much things have changed in my life over the course of a year

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I feel like RDR2 just has a more serious and grounded vibe. RDR1 felt like it wasn’t afraid to get a little whacky sometimes. Both have their charm, but i can see why someone would prefer one over the other

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve thought about slowing down (maybe move from daily too just doing it per game) or taking a break, but with the way my life is going i honestly think i want to keep going for now. Maybe it’s the high of reaching a year but i feel like i can take on the world lol

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you! I’m not usually this dedicated too things. I’m honestly just as impressed i’ve made it

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Honestly if the 360 version works well i’d say keep emulating. It’s been out for a bit but it definitely imo is only worth picking up on discount. It’s 50$ if i remember correctly

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Hey! Me and my friend played this recently and it took us a good while to clear. It’s fun, but incredibly difficult. We even turned it down to the lowest difficulty and still only one of us finished the climb.

Day 362 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

3 More Days until a Year! Today’s game is Sea of Thieves. I figured I took a screenshot of some fish and jellyfish i saw in the water today and thought “Why the hell not, let’s see if i can keep this fish train going”. The fish in this one are far more cartoony, which is to be expected for Sea of Thieves. They’re a...

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Captained ships afaik are the same. I feel like it sometimes restocks by themselves for some reason but i can’t say for sure. Maybe there’s some niche conditions or something but i’ve feel like it’s been doing that. And i too hope it’s around for a long while to come. Congrats on the daughter btw!

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I used to be a solo slooper, i always did Merchant’s alliance though. Didn’t pay well at all but i liked sailing around and trading the resources. It was a fun roleplay for me lol

Day 361 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

4 Days until a year! We’re getting close! Today’s game is some more The Last of Us. I made my way through the Hotel level and found a Fish. I didn’t know there were fish in this game. It’s a really pretty fish. It made me consider this games water too, and on my Water Scale i’ve decided to give it a 7/10. It can look...

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

It’s something the games do really well. It’s amazing how far games have come in general that they can get such amazing vibes

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I haven’t. I’ve been wanting too but wanted to play the game first

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Maybe i’ll start a spreadsheet with like with the Water ranking once i finally figure out what Spreadsheet software to switch too
