meanwhile it’s been on steam for at least a yeat

is nobody going to define what “runbacks” are?

I’m guessing it’s something like when you lose to a boss you have to travel a senselessly difficult and long way back to the boss to try again?

That does sound annoying and I hate when I even have to sit through a cutscene on each retry of a boss…

Nah, they aren’t. His videos are racist and queerphobic and toxic as fuck

THANK YOU. I couldn’t watch the video because of that shit.

As was his video itself

Sure is!

Not just playable but pleasant! Thing is perfect for Rimworld especially

I have the OLED too and it’s such an exceptional device. Works very well as a media PC too, especially with KDE Connect for controlling remotely from a smartphone

they’re also forgetting the touchpads. the touchpads are so fucking good, and they add so much usability and flexibility. so much, I think, that no amount of superior performance, resoution, or battery life can make up for the lack of them.

You argued that real porn is bad because of exploitation of women, but there’s so much porn out there where that simply isn’t true. An obvious example would be gay (male) porn where no women are present.

Not that I disagree that there isn’t a huge problem of exploitation of women, or staggering amounts of reinforcement of bullshit gender roles, or countless other problems. But, genuinely, not all porn is bad.

why did you ignore it then?

not all porn has women in it…

Get a Steam Deck OLED if you want a Steam Deck. Don’t wait for a hypothetical next version. I have both the LCD and OLED, and while both are excellent, the OLED is a slight improvement in a few days (lighter, less bezel, 90hz instead of 60hz, obviously you get an OLED screen, and the CPU/GPU are a tiny, tiny bit beefier).

Yes, furry conventions that allow children do not allow children into 18+ spaces. At the very least there’s always staff checking attendee badges which tend to say right on them if the attendee is an adult or not.

Good.

Nothing against Portal 2, but Stardew Valley just offers so much more for so much longer

I honestly wish the Dualsense took AAs. I’ve really grown to appreciate how Xbox controllers have always been two AA. Making a small investment in a bunch of Eneloop batteries and chargers is SO worth it.

Thank you so much for these! Exactly what I had been curious about <3

NICE. I may have to go order one of these right now.

That just looks like you must bind the new back buttons as duplicates of other regular buttons tho, what if I want a back button to be presented to a game as a brand new, unique button

So over bluetooth or (i assume) 2.4ghz it supports more buttons than playstation/xbox, works with analog triggers, AND supports gyro?

That’s a feature set I’ve been really desperate for! And I really liked my 8bitdo Ultimate (1) Bluetooth until my puppy chewed it up. I might need this new one!

can they be unique buttons though? I thought they had to be copies of existing buttons, or macros or something.

The steam controller takes AA batteries. Doesn’t get much more “standard size” than AA.

Curtailing developer choice is rather the point, no?

Ff16 combat is fun as hell. And FF7 remake/rebirth too. I’m sure I still would have enjoyed both games if they were turn based, as I enjoyed the original FF7 and FF8 back in the day, but I really don’t get the hate for the realtime combat. It’s tight and polished and fun.

As long as they never again include the

arcade/mini game that one of the physical releases had back in the day, and ideally fucking apologize for that shit, cool and I hope it goes well. Apart from that inexcusable bullshit, I’m a huge fan of Postal 2

I don’t have a Wear OS watch. Can’t run software on a spring and gears.

Tokyo Jungle, YES!

A game so sadly lost to time. My partner’s PS3 still has it installed, but no idea if the hard drive is still functional…

you’re absolutely right about the rush when everything is on the line.

my most memorable moment was at night, pitch black out, and there’s some idiot kid screaming about Shrek running around outside. I had a pipe shotgun and a small bunch of resources, and I was hiding in my tiny 1x1 shack.

that was the scariest shit on earth. and when he came knocking on my door asking me some shit about Shrek it gave me a few seconds to line up the shot through the door, so I quickly opened it and fired. immediately the yelling about Shrek ceased and I was left with complete silence and darkness.

Monster Sanctuary was so good. I tried it when I had Game Pass, and I loved it so much I bought it outright for Xbox, and then again on Steam. Also got the hardcover monster journal.

Aethermancer, made by the same folks, is looking really good from their demo. Clearly lots of inspiration from Monster Sanctuary but very much its own sort of game

Monster Sanctuary. A superbly polished, extremely fun, and decently challenging metroidvania and monster collecting/battling game. If you played the first few Pokemon generations on gameboy and don’t find the newer games capture that same magic, check out Monster Sanctuary!

Pacific Drive. A station wagon building amd exploration game set in a STALKER-esque Pacific Northwest in the Olympic mountain range. Extremely original and unique game, and with an excellent soundtrack.

Hardspace Shipbreaker: spaceship salvage, with increasing hazards and challenges and complexity of ship systems to expertly disassemble. With a pretty cool workers’ solidarity and union struggle type of plot.

Rimworld. Hundreds of hours lost.

Stardew Valley. A literally perfect game.

Terraria. Also a literally perfect game.

Caves of Qud. Like if Dwarf Fortress adventure mode was actually polished, and also if distant future scifi with mutants and cybernetics and sentient plants and sapient gun turrets.

Dwarf Fortress. It’s Dwarf Fortress.

WolfQuest. Wolf simulator set in Yellowstone, with a focus on real world accuracy. So cool to raise a pack and manage territory and hunt and explore and howl a lot

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. A brilliantly executed spiritual successor to Jet Set Radio Future.

Descenders. Crazy fun downhill bicycling game.

+1 for Pacific Drive. Nothing else like it out there. And you get to form a relationship with a station wagon, which is peak passenger vehicle design.

And the soundtrack is outstanding!

I still got lost enough that I’ve never finished the base game

Half Life 2 for me

their legal action against emulators and DRM circumvention. they have the audacity of allowing people to play their games which were legally purchased on unapproved hardware.

And you’ll be sued by Nintendo into lifelong poverty if you use it wrong.

Fuck Nintendo.

yeah but people who buy this next xbox shouldn’t have to jump through those hoops to play a game they purchased (a license to) on compatible hardware

I hope Valve blocks this block

yeah seriously! if I can’t get a footjob from a dragon type what’s even the point?

Link doesn’t work, but I have an NH-D15 so I definitely know what’s up! Had to slide one of the fans outwards a little because the RAM sticks interfere with the space, but yeah it’s been rock solid for me

Same, I RMAed the same Corsair AIO twice, never bothered installing the third one, just got a Noctua instead and I’ll never bother with liquid cooling ever again.
