Castlevania: aria of sorrow, more raycrysis from the ray’z cronology, and I might finally buy the first leynos port for ps4.

where is the line between patient and retro gamer?

been using the hell out of bazzite (and bluefin at work), myself. It’s terrific. it does come with the usual caveat about AAA games with anticheat often won’t work but otherwise I don’t think much about even checking to see if a game will run.

as soon as I saw the promod logo I was stoked. I played 1.6 and made the transition to source. played competitively in leagues for a long time. never got into cs:go or 2. I would love to try this out.

gonna need to be higher priced so they can keep funding lawsuits.

a pretty modern and mundane response but at the moment, the RM68 in Battlefield 2042. mostly because of the odd sound it makes and how solid the hit markers for it feel. it’s certainly not the best gun in the game (or any game) but it’s just nice.

I’m a daily driver of Bazzite and Bluefin. I felt this way initially but it’s been generally painless. I typically check flatpak -> app image -> homebrew -> distrobox when I need something. If that fails, I use rpm-ostree and reboot.

I work in development/devops/infosec by trade and to date there hasn’t been a single package or program that I needed that I couldn’t get running with minimal fuss. I’ve even run a couple of MDM packages that my work requires.

Over time: probably Contra on the NES, Tetris and Bionic Commando on the GameBoy, Operation Wolf and Sinistar in the arcade. DOOM, Duke3d, and XEvil on the PC. CS 1.6 and CS:S in college. The Gears series on the 360.

Then I had a decade or so gaming drought. More recently: Batsugun, Ketsui (Deathtiny and Death Label), Danmaku Unlimited 3, and Battlefield 2042.

It’s surreal reading comments pining for win7/8. i am getting old.

Battlefield 2042 (xbox series s), Danmaku Unlimited 3 (steam), Ketsui Deathtiny (ps4), and eFootball (android/xbox and f2p, though I’m not sure that one is in the right place here).

how does this differ from profiles in grapheneos? i’ve not used stock android so i don’t know if it also has profiles but i used to use them for work related things.

sure, i expected this reply. again, i don’t necessarily agree with the statement. herd mentality or not it’s merely what i’ve observed.

i have yet to use one of these digital wallets but i would imagine a large part of it is “because everyone around me is doing it.” not necessarily herd mentality but the social shift of it making checkout processes faster so if you’re using cash or a card, you’re inconveniencing the people in line behind you (however rational that may be is another topic).

i live in a semi-rural area and have seen very few instances of someone paying with their phone. it’s so rare here, i’m not even sure how the process works. tap to pay with a card has only recently been more normalized here. however, when i travel for work to big cities, it seems like the only times cards are used is when there is a large group meal at a fancier restaurant.

i also carry a small amount of cash in case my card fails or a card machine is down but it’s very rare to see cash used here as well, except for personal payments. even then, third party pseudo-bank apps are consuming that process (cashapp, venmo, etc.).

i’m not trying to justify any of these payment processes or mark one as better than the others. it’s just an observation.

why does it matter when the disc for a game is now basically just a download code? the studios have already won this battle.

What about Extraneum? It’s cute as a button and very chill with plenty of things to shoot. It feels a bit like a modern wolfenstein since there aren’t any stairs. Gunplay feels nice and the secrets are rewarding. Plus between levels there are funny data discs to read.

This was my experience on the Xbox. Absolutely loved the campaign. Could not get a feel for how to survive mp after a few hours. There was a prolonged respawn and die nearly immediately loop. I uninstalled it after I got what I could from the campaign.

How long before Nintendo slaps a DMCA on this one?

On android, lemuroid is pretty good for this sort of thing and you can change the arrangement of your nds/3ds screens.

I couldn’t agree with this comment more! cod:m is a blast and runs on a lot of devices, even google-free ones.
