it’s only 3 years old so I wouldn’t consider it an old system. I think atleast 5 years is old for a console

I would consider it underpowered compared to competitors but not outdated (and imo I don’t think better hardware is needed)

can you explain? did they do something special or did they just release a game like by queers in the dedicated queer month? (I’ve only gotten through the tutorial of Undertale and that’s it lol)

I’m locking my answer in on the old Minecraft music. Literally EVERYONE knows it.

I bought borderlands 2 the other week and it’s been a blast on my SteamDeck. Unfortunately it seems it’s one of those games that loves to connect online all the time, like it’ll kick me out of single player if it detects wifi and make me reload into… singleplayer, but online. with 0 differences.

I probably would’ve been better off pirating it tbh.

put that on my tombstone

it’s not for everyone 🤷‍♀️

Doom Eternal is one of my favorite games precisely because you switch weapons so often and are a slaughter machine. I beat the dlcs and had a blast. I enjoyed the difficulty honestly, it forced me to get better and actually feel like I ‘deserved’ to have the power of the doomslayer. The Marauder has to be my favorite enemy in all of gaming. He was SO hard the first time but once you learn how to counter him you can FUCK HIM UPP. It’s so satisfying to completely 180 him and turn him to a pile of gibs. The 2 at once fight in the first DLC was my favorite encounter of the whole game.

Tutorial hints were super annoying though, however you can just turn them off in settings.

2016 was boring for me tbh. Super excited for dark ages.

past the first few chapters it got a bit confusing, but the train trolly thing was like a maze and I kept going in circles for so long 😵‍💫

This one’s pretty controversial, but if you’ve never played it before,

Half Life 1

It’s really confusing and enemies will pop out of nowhere and kill you instantly. Not really fun imo, but then again I AM playing it for the first time 27 years after it came out 😂

I’m sure Black Mesa is more intuitive though.

hell yeah kenshi mentioned. Honestly the game feels like ‘slop’, but is fun as hell also in an old-school RuneScape type of way

excited for the 2nd game on unreal engine (but small dev team, might take couple more years)

still need to get around to beating doom 2. It just got so repetitive I had to take a break

Always good to see a post from you <3

holy shit kenshi mentioned

Love this post style, you did a lot of work!

also man that selaco box is so pretty. There’s something about hoarding pretty little boxes that I just want to do.

I have 300+ hours in oldschool RuneScape ironman where I can’t trade/pick up item from other players. It’s fun.

I wish I could play single player old school RuneScape on my SteamDeck so bad. Sitting mining rocks while I watch TV in bed would go so hard

can it run doom?

Doom eternal. I recently learned all the achievements aren’t just the collectables in the main campaign.

It still wont get me to play online, though.

I feel like I’ve heard this story every couple months for the past 3 years lol

you should post the trailer for Rogue Core (next DRG game) also, I would but im lazy rn

smh literally 1984

I know Lemmy hates AI in all use cases, but that does sound pretty cool to me

oh, in that case yeah that’s fair, I agree

controversial take, but I hope they do delay it. Better a good game late than a bad game early. As big as this release is, it HAS to be good.

meh, I don’t think that the reason AAA games are bad is because they cost less. I think it’s just greed and rushing the developers.

just a reminder that you live in a different culture than the average video game player. I haven’t even completed GTA5 and aren’t in the circle of GTA players. Hell, the funnest part for me is driving in a really big circle while listening to music, but as out of touch as I am, I know it’s really REALLY hyped

I can’t get over the change of gabe throughout time

>4chan dweeb (who’s super cool)
>round dude (who’s super cool)
>???
>GREEK GOD

…(who’s super cool)

Like how did he do it? I swear I haven’t seen a single photo of the in-betweens, just the 3 stages

I believe them and will definitely get the game eventually, cyberpunk 2077 is one of my favorite games and I’m excited for a sequel. However I will wait a few weeks after it comes out before buying it lol

aww

I sounds like a joke, but they’ve had the cycle of
1: release controversial change to get more money
2: get protests/boycotts of people stopping their membership (subscription)
3: make an ‘agreement’ that still gets them more money but is mild enough that protests won’t meaningfully continue
4: wait a few months for people to cool off
5: repeat

I think this ‘cycle’ was a lot more violent this time because it was made by a parent company rather than Jagex themselves.

Along a laundry list of bad companies there’s runescape fucking RUNESCAPE of all games!

So that has been fixed for over a decade.

they fixed that, but if you are connected to WiFi that blocks steam it will refuse to launch your games even after you disconnect from the WiFi. I think this is to prevent piracy I guess??

I needed a software that I bought on steam for schoolwork and I couldn’t use it because steam was having a panic attack over my schools wifi. Inst of preventing piracy I went and pirated the software to not have that issue LOL

you need 2 spaces and 2 enters after the first line to make it separate from the quote:

(yeah I know, formatting is really dumb)

I mean… ai Minecraft already exists

yeah ok but like trackpads are cool though

for the 10 year anniversary you should give it a cake

I looked into that. I’m wanting to play online levels and there’s no way as far as I know to do that with emulation :/
I appreciate the recommendation though :)

sounds like a good time to use my mom’s now unused switch and buy a used Mario Maker 2 cartridge. Been watching YouTube videos about it and kinda wanna try.

Ok so I tried to go onto the Facebook website to use Facebook marketplace to get a cartridge but apparently it got hacked somehow because it’s my email, but it’s not my name and it got banned in October LMAO
Id have to upload photo proof of my face, so guess I’ll just keep not using Facebook.

Looks like they’re ~30 bucks on eBay though.

Oh yeah? well I’m doing seventy thousand and ONE steam players a night. Take that, CyberFlunk.

I really hope Gabe doesn’t die right now because we are SO CLOSE to having a mainstream windows competitor.
The users-&-software feedback loop snowball is about to go down a mountain and I am so here for it.

ROCK AND STONE!!!
