Would they want to marry her if her voice acting was shit though?

I tried playing it for a few minutes but I genuinely got incredibly lost and dropped it because if I wanted to err without goal I’d just go look in my fridge

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah especially considering I’m not touching the amazon launcher with a 10 foot pole.

League of legends used to work well but yeah I mostly never bother with lutris.

It was good in the past back when every game needed a different configuration of wine but nowadays proton-GE works out of the box on most games.

I agree with the overall sentiment, however:

Lootboxes are at least a conscious action you must take. They definitely have the same problems as gambling (because that’s what they are), but you can also choose not to engage with them. Ads however, are forced upon you, and do things that you cannot see (track you) and cannot turn off.

Modern switches are all jailbreak able through mod chips.

Day 175 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (pixelfed.social)

Today’s game is Assassin’s Creed Black Flag. I went with a Out of Animus Screenshot to mix things up from the Usual Pirate Decor. i’ve gotten all the way to Sequence 12. I spent most of today doing Story Missions, so i’m going to be keeping the Screenshots a bit light so as to keep from spoiling it for anybody who might...

I suggest Titanfall 2 next

“sure our game has gambling elements, but we’re Nintendo so shut the fuck up and give us a better rating because you’re a private company in the business of giving ratings”

Also: brand shield says they only wanted the url gone but you don’t get that when talking to the registrar. Registrar are all or nothing, so clearly they knew they were doing this

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Legally, going to the registrar so fast isn’t even the right course of action. You first have to contact the poster, then the platform, then the hosting provider, then the registrar. Of course in normal DMCA cases the first 2 are the same person so you don’t really have to do that (and also who will care if it goes to court)

themoonisacheese,

Number for number, sure, if it’s actually available at that price.

The problem is that Intel’s drivers sucked in the past, so they definitely have to prove themselves with this launch. I definitely wouldn’t be buying it release day if I needed a GPU.

If you own track mania nations forever on steam, you will be unable to run it on a modern OS. You can install mods to make it work but the game is still for sale and if you’re unaware the mod exists, you’ll never be able to play it again

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

You should look into hacking your switch. If you can’t do it the easy way, there’s another way that’s not for the faint of heart, but I did it and have never spent a dollar more on games since.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Don’t buy that dlc, it’s not worth 60€.

Look into hacking your switch. It’s fun and teaches you things and you get free games out of it.

I did my v2 and “accessible to diy” is, while true, overselling it. It’s accessible to people who already have extensive experience with soldering, though I suspect you could learn to do the specifics you need in a few days.

If you liked art of rally, I suggest Parking Garage Rally Circuit. Much of the same vibe.

Any good games that break the mold

It feels like new games are just more of the same, with no real meaning. However I recently started playing “Return of the Obra Dihn” and love open ended deduction in it. It feels like I’m actually figuring things out by myself without being handheld through it. Are there any other games that don’t coddle the player that...

themoonisacheese,

I heard good word about Paradise Killer, in which you’re also a detective and must figure out the truth

The outer wilds is amazing. You should play it.

Well it’s certainly not parkour

This is done all the time to sell games that aren’t available as CD keys, against TOS.

The seller usually gives you a login to a webmail they control, and the account is tied to that email. You can then change the email on the account and you have access to the original email to confirm the move.

This isn’t a “we’ll sue you” clause, it’s a “we’ll never do business with you again” clause

Steam charts isn’t really accurate, but yeah game’s dead.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Game servers are incredibly expensive, and server side anticheat is more costs.

Whether or not the studios can afford it (they can.) is irrelevant, it’s simply cheaper to go for flawed client side because the client will do most of the processing.

Any software developer worth their salt simply does not trust the client, but management is gonna manage and the engineers have to come up with a solution to “we must have anticheat because we said so, and you must keep server costs per user below x”. It’s easy to forget that most implementation choices in video games aren’t made by developers who like games, they’re made by middle managers who view games as a money-generaring industry.

The steam deck can drain that fast (for example when I played H:zd I basically had to be plugged in the whole time) but I doubt you’d even hit the same performance per watt with an Intel part. You’re essentially paying 20% more for a worse product, and I’m not even gonna get into MSI support, especially given how nice valve support is.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Reminder that Elite:Dangerous is a game that has all that star citizen has ever promised, today. You can get it on steam.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yes (since the latest DLC), yes (the thargoids mystery), and yes (carriers have been here for a few years).

Of course it’s not exactly what you would get in SC because they’re ultimately different games. But you do have all of that and more, E:D has massively improved since it came out.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Very much 8,19€ for me.

You can still play go if you want, there’s a beta called “csgo demo viewer” that can connect to community servers.

titanfall is god tier, others have covered that.

horizon zero dawn i finished recently on my steam deck while travelling, it’s great and you basically can pause at any time except in cutscenes, which is a bit annoying when something comes up during important story points.

bioshock i guess is not really my cup of tea, but i didn’t find that i was able to put it down and pick it back up. the game overall is quite slow, and all the branching paths means you can easily waste a lot of time.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

The extreme is already a hard sell over the deck. It is barely more powerful for much larger price, and it is considerably less frame-time consistent than the deck. Buying anything less powerful is a waste.

Payday 3 developer drops Denuvo from the game before it's even out (www.pcgamer.com)

It's common practice for PC games today to launch with Denuvo, a form of DRM designed to stop the spread of pirated copies of games, and it's also common practice for developers to remove Denuvo several months after launch as interest (and the risk of piracy) dwindles. Less common is a developer publicly announcing it's removing...

It is basically impossible to be banned at all from playing payday 2. The worst you can do is equip invalid stuff, which marks you as a cheater and most people kick marked cheaters.

themoonisacheese,
@themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works avatar

Tbh, a large part of payday2’s problems stem from being built on a racing game engine. Redoing pd2 on unreal straight would be of course a lot of work, but the end result would be a better product that I would pay for. Payday3 on the other hand doesn’t look like something that I would enjoy based on the fact unlike pd2.

Rutracker is very specific in what emails it allows. Emails on my custom domain were already banned, I think they have a whitelist of email domains. I just ended up using my Gmail address, but yeah if you have a protonmail or own domain address I’m guessing you won’t have much success. You also might need to click the email validation link that ends up in spam.
