Well I just need to get a gpu. I already have an i7-8700 and 16gb ram, so I will price shop used stuff here and see if there is a good deal.


I actually have that. I want something with a bit more power.


Maybe, but who knows when that is going to come out.


Oh? I’ll have to check if they are available in the country where I live. They were not when I checked a few months ago.


Oh, yeah. I mean I want more computing power. I have a hub for my laptop which works great for the steamdeck.


I would totally buy a ps5 if I could just use it as a steam machine.

The steamdeck is my most powerful system at the moment and i’m getting a stiff neck playing in handheld mode these days anyway.

So if im going to be plugged in, I might as well.

My other option is to get a gpu and use my home server that has an i7-8700.

That’s honestly, probably the way to go.


This had been on my list forever. I have free copies from both gog and epic.


To be fair, my Xbox gamer tag is pretty lacking as I’m mainly a pcgamer and retro gamer. So hopefully that is the case with her.

But to be honest, from my perspective, Xbox is already lower on the scale to me that it can get worse in any measurable way.



I’m playing dragon quest viii.

I played 11 and loved it. I only have a few hours so far, but I’m enjoying it a lot.

I’m playing the 3ds version.


I agree with your opinion about bloodstained. I played it a bit recently, and I think that 3d/2d style is pretty horrendous.

I think it is done to save cost as it is easier to make a game with 3d models than it is to use 2d sprites.




In the interview he said he can see himself doing stardew 2 at some point but he didn’t know if he wanted to do new characters or the same ones.


I’ve been gaming my whole life, without a doubt, I’ve put the most hours into this game.

I truly love it and buy a copy for every platform that I have.

If he does haunted chocolatier, I will day 1 buy it just to support him.

If he does a stardew 2, i think a new cas of characters would be cool because we already know the current cast. Maybe they could make an appearance or one or two of them could be in this town.

Now, I want to play this game again.


I’m happy to see this post. NH was my first one so I had no comparison, but I felt it bored with it.

I just picked up the 3ds version and want to give it a try as people always talk so highly of that version.

I’ve been really busy lately, so I have even put 2 hours into it yet.

Hoping I’ll have some time today too but a house in the game.


It would be great if devs just target the steam deck and then let you improve graphics for better hardware.

Like, turn up ray tracing and other effects on the steam machine. Let my steamdeck be a potato.


I really hope tha devs target the steamdeck as a baseline for all future games.

I love it when they have a steamdeck graphics profile too.


Thank god I never sold my old desktops.

I have a i5-3470 with 16gb, i7-8700 with 16 gb, a steamdeck, and recently bought an m4 air.

I’m only gaming on the steamdeck, and those other computers are used for home server stuff.


I know a lot of people are looking forward to this game and in a way I hope they get a great game. They enjoy on the other hand. I hope this is a huge flop for rockstar.


Sorry I meant to say wasn’t marketed as a game in the series.


I guess you’re right cause it was more of a spinoff not really a sequel.

It’s more of an action horror vibe instead of a survival horror vibe.


I think that game suffers as it is not as good as the first one. But it was not a bad game, I guess. I think I just had high expectations. Maybe it would have been better if it was marketed as a sequel to PE1


I loved PE1, but had trouble getting into PE2.

For those who may not know, the game was made to be a sequel to a book with the same name.

My understanding is that the book was wildly famous in Japan, but don’t make a big international splash.

I once found a used English copy on Amazon for $200.

So, just pickup the ebook. I started to read it, but got busy with my wedding and never finished it. I need to give it another go.


I can believe it. I imagine a potential employer would be concerned about that especially if it’s a work from home thing.

It’s too bad really, because it’s entirely out of your control for the most part.

I do all my work from home (free lance), but I always use wired Ethernet to minimize potential problems.


I decided to pull the trigger on bg3 maybe today or next week.

Depends on if I have time to play today.


Yeah! I’m wanting that game.

I have about $15 in steam credit, so I’m thinking of just pulling the trigger even though I have other games I’m actively playing.


Same as consoles. Sell at a loss to increase game sales and earn more on the backend.



So is this a huge breakthrough that’s going to be adopted by ai companies across the board? Or maybe there is some downside.


I don’t know much about running this on my own computer other than using ollama. Is that what you mean about running it on my own?


I’m not sure I understand what you mean, but if I understand you correctly, I think the same logic can be applied to using n OS of choice.

I still think it’s an issue of priority.


I think it’s a good metric to let people know that the machine can hold its own and will likely be the kind of specs that developers will target.


I don’t see any problem with that. The worlds’s lore could just be told through different sets of characters eyes.

I don’t even pay attention to game lore anyway. So as long as gameplay is good, I’m alright.


Thanks, I did give that a try and didn’t have much of an opinion of it. I’ll give it another try though.


Thanks for this list.

I played the Metroid game and I love that series.

I’m not sure I liked smt4 too much, but I’m not familiar with the others. I’ll check them out.

I got a 3dsxl about 6 months ago for some Pokémon action, now I need something new.



What good are those 3 games you want to play if they don’t work on the OS you want to use?

It’s just a matter of priority, about 8 years ago, I just made the decision to not play a game if it doesn’t work on Linux.


For uncharted work on this yet? It’s the main ps3 game I’m interested in trying.


Discounty - Review

Not at the max, but at all. So if you just need to grab one apple to restock, you have to run back and forth to return the excess apples from the stack.

I would not recommend buying it in its current state. I think it needs a few big dlcs before it can call itself a completed game.

Thoughts on Final Fantasy VII Remake
I grew up playing Final Fantasy VII. I probably played it around 10-12 years old and again on ios a few years ago. WOW! What a classic. I decided to play the remake on my Steam Deck just ot revisit the game and see areas of the game reimagined. They did a great job in this aspect, but overall I feel that the game has not been fun. So far, it is just walking from place to place while having the occasional battle. 99% of the time you can mindlessly mash a button to find the battle. The few boss battles that come up can be interesting and this is where you start to learn the mechanics as they are not needed up until this point. But, there are many sections that are long for the sake of being long. Like making you walk slowly in certain situations, like walking up to 7th Heaven, or making you hold a button to interact with something when 99% of things just require you to press the button once. My biggest disappointment in the game is that the gear I unlocked and leveled up, do not carry over to the next game. Once I learned this, I stopped caring. They really should have let you bring over your characters. Anyway, I am near the end game now and will probably finish it since there is not much left, but I will not be playing other iterations of this game. I might just watch a speed-run or a "let's play" to see the different areas.
