Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Such a great game and community which I feel was enabled by the devs who has the forethought to make spamming a cheer button so enjoyable! End result: everyone cheers and the community gets just that little more happy.
Both on Linux, Armored Core 6 works flawlessly with proton. But Minecraft needed some more work.
I just finished modding Minecraft java edition on Linux with fabric to use my Nvidia card appropriately and it is running the smoothest it ever has at 60 fps, 128 bit resource packs and very high settings on my shader. Fabric is so much better than optifine in terms of performance, just wish it was a bit easier to install.
I know. I have an angelbob megabase save that clocks in at 788MB. To play it I need to add an additional 16GB of swap. I figured that it was about time the GPU did some heavy lifting too.
Just played the Lamplighters League demo and liked it quite a bit. Only bummer is that it does not play well on steam deck, so I will hold off for a while.
Playing Starfield. I love exploring and I love the atmosphere. The least buggy launch I’ve seen from Bethesda. It’s great.
I wanna get back into AC6 and try my hand at pvp but every time I try I get nervous and chicken out. If anyone knows of a place for noobs to hangout, chat, and learn the game please let me know.
Recently played Titanfall 2 and bought the Muse Dash DLC, and man this has been the most fun ride I’ve been in a while.
First off, Muse Dash. I’ve bought the base game a long while ago and pretty much cleared all of the hard content it had to offer. Due to the recent controversy, I jumped the gun and bought the DLC earlier than I would have liked, but I did plan on getting it at some point so its not a complete bummer. The main draw of the DLC for me was mainly more content since base game is reeeally small - specially if you are experienced at the game or genre as a whole, and the mods. The mods along with custom charts made the game way more compelling than before. Bless the good people who do game mods, they are actual gods.
Then we arrive at Titanfall 2. To be honest, I did not expect it to run on my i3 potato laptop, but it did… and I got addicted, clocking in 30 hours in like a week and a bit. The campaign is good, the multiplayer is amazing once it clicks, and now I’m replaying the campaign again for the collectibles. It is a genuine breath of fresh air as the majority of multiplayer/online games that I play involve live service stuff, gacha and tedious grind, and I’m not interested in mainstream competitive stuff either with ELO ranking and keeping up with metas. Here I can enjoy fragging to my heart’s content and casual competition without the baggage modern gaming entails (battlepass progression, ranked, FOMO, etc.). And even if I get beat by someone better, I view it as a challenge and not pure BS (I’m looking at you War Thunder).
Baldurs Gate 3 was released on Friday on Mac. I played the preview and some hours on parallels and am glad now I can play natively now.
My problem is, this world is to big. I like role playing my character, even if it is not optimal. I read every dialogue and think: “what would Hsslek (my Githyanki Dragonborn Wizard) do?”
The great thing is, after around 50 hours I now have a picture of my character. A curious mind, not always fitting into Githyanki society, but counting on the Githyanki Warrior who shares his fate and is becoming his lover.
Work has been busy, so i played Call of Duty DMZ after work for some short relaxation. Been doing for months, kinda getting good at it. 6 days ago i was shadowbanned for killing to many players who probably reported me. Now i’m getting matched in high ping >200ms lobby. I swear I’ve never use hack or hardware cheating things. So i uninstall and start getting into Titanfall2
I beat Kingdom Hearts 2 last week, so I’m just starting Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. Taking a bit of a break though, so might not end up getting to it until next week.
I’m playing Valkyria Chronicles. I think I’m about to finish the main story, though I have to tackle most of the extra content still (skirmishes and DLC maps).
It’s a bit strange, but once you stop looking at it as a strategy game, it becomes apparent that it’s actually a puzzle game in disguise, asking you to clear all scenarios in the most time efficient way, which usually translates to very precise troop placement and attacking enemies in a specific order.
I already played VC4 last year and it was a blast. VC1 has a bit less content and the QoL features from the sequel are sorely missing, but it’s still a lot of fun.
Nice. Personally only played VC1 and currently on VC2 (on a break though). All I can say so far is that the game series is a rough gem, fun but a bit unbalanced. VC2 is better in that aspect though, and I would assume the later games are as well.
I can’t speak about VC2 and 3, but 4 is pretty much the same as 1. The unbalanced nature of the game is part of the fun, for me. And if you’re willing to play the missions “as intended” instead of cheesing them with the attack-boosting orders, imo they provide quite the challenge (especially late-game VC4).
If I ever revisit 1, I’ll definitely play it with a rebalance mod, not sure on which since there’s like 3 of them.
While killing a tank with a scout is funny, it cheapens the gameplay. Personally I’m the kind that gravitates to metas, not to the point of obsessive min max, but it’s enough to sour the experience if it’s particularly busted like in the first game. Doesn’t help that the ranking system only cares about speed making it sort of necessary to exploit if you want a good result :/

What shader pack you got? Im on Linux as well but havent found the right one yet.
complementary unbound
And here is my exported settings for r5.0.
If using the same version, save as a file named
ComplementaryUnbound_r5.0.zip.txtAnd paste in the following to import but I would suggest you play around with it.
I gave in to the hype and bought BG3. And this is the first time in ages where I’ve bought a brand new AAA game and not been disappointed.
I have a brand new PC, so it’s about time I ran something more demanding than Factorio on it.
Factorio is a pretty demanding game as long as you play long enough

I’ve been putting some serious hours into No Man’s Sky the last few weeks. Lately I’ve been getting pretty hardcore about F-Zero 99 as well

I’m trying to figure out the riddle on Gerudo Desert in Zelda TotK.
Still not the right spoiler tag.

May you put the last part into a spoiler tag? Thank you.
The syntax is
No line embedded spoiler currently supported for now, unfortunately.
Weird, because that’s what I used and it shows as blocked for me.
Edit: I just deleted that line.
Some clients may support features that Lemmy doesn’t, especially if they are Reddit client ports. For now the only official way is the one I linked.
Good idea.

CP2077, no man’s sky, Dredge and Dave the Diver. In this order.
I’m playing Lies of P. It’s a good soul like game, but felt like the dev took some wrong lessons from FS.
I’m really frustrated that the distance that I have to travel to retry each boss is so far. It’s like playing DS1 with some flaws that FS grew out of.
