Same, maturing and looking at things more intelligently made me better at online games. Still average to be honest, but I was really bad as a kid

Biased because I’m pro steam deck, but yes, Steam Deck will offer you the full steam library of games, on top of games from other platforms / consoles through emulation

This was the main selling point for me

Not every single one, but a fair amount. People maintain compatibility lists for different emulators, for example this is one for Ryujinx …gametechwiki.com/…/Ryujinx_Game_Compatibility_Li…

Edit : better yet here’s a list from the same wiki, of emulators for the Switch, with a % of game compatibles …gametechwiki.com/…/Nintendo_Switch_emulators

I usually check protondb for more detailed data on games compatibility www.protondb.com

Then :

We’ve already had one Half-Life 3 but what about a second Half-Life 3

The artstyle is great, the animation… ouch

inlandempire, 3 miesiące temu

Any of those three

• Disco Elysium
• Death Stranding
• Outer Wilds

inlandempire, 3 miesiące temu

I think the common denominator is a strong / immersive story and universe that appeals to me (big fan of sf), interesting mechanics and gameplay in a way that makes the game unique in its own way, and the artistic approach behind the game, so for each of those :

• Outer Wilds was a fantastic experience that you can only live once, the freedom of exploration is crazy, the feelings you can go through in the span of a single minute make it so memorable, I connected with this game like no other
• Death Stranding I played during one of the lockdowns, and after hiking in Iceland, it was a continuity of these two experiences that felt very personal. It was also my introduction to Kojima games. I found it to be such a premium experience and statement about video games, I loved the insanity of the plot, and once you dug deeper, you find all the artistic inspiration and process that went behind the game, it’s an insane work of interactive art
• Disco Elysium I was already fully on board just learning about the game, I sympathise with the authors, the fact that it started as an rpg campaign, with immense lore behind it, love the art style, the narration, the story and its themes, I haven’t lived in post USSR Europe but the game make me nostalgic/melancholic for a time, aesthetic, struggles I didn’t know

They’re my absolute favourite but some games come close, Inscryption, Pyre, Spiritfarer…

Can you believe this headline? I have this weird feeling where the video game industry now only presents itself as former of former of… Everyone is referred to as their past roles, there’s no present or future anymore, just looking back at what we had and pretending to offer something similar

It’s not you, I’m probably on the opposite spectrum, being overly pessimistic. I’m not criticising this acquisition in particular and you’re right, we can’t know how this will go ; it’s more of a jab at the industry as a whole : a lot of new releases are advertised as being made by ex devs of whatever studio was once praised, and turn out to be ersatz of the original material (Back 4 Blood, Stormgate, Kerbal Space Program…). This kind of marketing is super disingenuous!

This is me, Destiny 2 has about 1000 more from when it was on Battle.Net. I’m planning to completely stop playing DRG once i hit 100 hours as I’ve pretty much finished the game (almost max level on all classes and unlocked every cosmetics).

It’s a great game, and very healthy when it comes to fomo (it’s non existent you can pick previous battle passes and make progress on them, there’s many systems for unlocking new stuff…). The only downside of starting “late” is that you have everything to unlock, which may feel overwhelming, while I only had to unlock new cosmetics and gear upgrades as they were introduced over time (been playing since early access).

Also the whole game is designed around coop, anything you do will help your teammates, people are very chill so didn’t be afraid to join random lobbies, but if you’d rather play alone you’ll have a dedicated flying robot to help you out!

GOOD I will never forgive them for the sunsetting bs they pulled after delivering forskaren

This issue would be solved / non existent if matchmaking was not the only option for playing online game, which wouldn’t be an issue if publishers stopped being so greedy and predatory when it comes to player retention, which wouldn’t be an issue if the economic system we live in didn’t promote this toxic behaviour.

So yeah, kernel based anticheats are mostly just a symptom of a larger problem, the rotten video games industry

I’m 10 years younger and I feel the same, granted, I still game a lot, but I find myself more excited about the ideas and potential of a game, than actually playing it.

I think it’s a normal thing, you gotta get tired of a hobby after so many years, and it’s a healthy thing to cycle it out and pick up something else, and maybe come back to it some time later

I use MiniReview (minireview.io) to have better sorting options for games on Google’s Play Store, you can specifically sort for screen orientation, monetisation (or lack of), genre, ads or not, etc

I think either of these will be regarded as works of art :

• Alan Wake
• Disco Elysium

Oh that’s funny, it’s the second time I get ‘caught’ lol

It’s a french punctuation rule (I’m francophone), which differs from the usual english one where no space is needed before the exclamation mark. basically if any symbol takes the full line height, we add spaces before and after. It’s fun to figure out if someone is francophone or not by the way they type.

I’m late because I just started watching Shogun, but Shadow Tactics - Blades of the Shogun is really good in the real time tactics genre, it was the first title released by Mimi who went on to make the acclaimed Desperados 3 and Shadow Gambit - The Cursed Crew

Have you played Dead Cells? It’s a great metroidvania

inlandempire, rok temu

2D game yeah ! It’s on PC (mac, linux too) ; Switch ; PS4 ; Xbox One ; and I believe they’re working on an Android port. If you decide to buy it on Steam it’s also “Steam Deck verified” and is rated Platinum (works natively “out of the box”) on ProtonDB ; seeing how other, more ressource-demanding games run on Switch emulators, I think Dead Cells won’t be an issue, it’s very well optimized in my experience !

Yeah they added it for their 20 years anniversary in November, it has its own physics and came along a new surface with its own physics as well (wood, which then broke physics for existing wood making some old maps broken but that’s a long story)

You have 800ms snippets of a character walking or shooting in between cinematics, but you gotta be attentive otherwise you’ll miss it

I don’t dislike it, it’s brilliant, the epitome of SupergiantGames’ beautiful craft, but I just can’t play Hades, it released after I had already burnt out on Dead Cells, Curse of the Dead Gods, Grime, Enter the Gungeon, Blasphemous, Gunfire Reborn, and whatnot, I can’t bring myself to play it because I had already explored the genre so many times…

I’m not sure if that’s what you mean but I don’t think you can play the same game at the same time when sharing your Steam library

Man to me it’s their best, I loved every single part of it, I connected to the story and it’s relation to gameplay more than any of their other titles
