I've never seen the Zelda from 2017 go lower than 50€, USED. Great deep discount for an 8 years old game!

I agree with this. RDR2 pushed so much on realism, it actually made me realize how I don't want to be as slow as a person in the real world in videogame. Realism in general really doesn't cut it for me in videogame form.

I'll take CP2077 over this game in any context.

Did developers really shift away from it though? I feel like season passes and updates brought the concept closer, in fact, by prolonging a game's life without having to buy the same game three or four times (which is what happened back with Street Fighter 4).

Strive 2.0 probably means they'll expand the game's life like they did with REV, by making a REV2 update instead of shifting to a new game altogheter. The new update will probably cost around 30/35 euros. I'm good with this, I think GG:ST has so much life left in it. Incredible how it has been around 5 years already.

It's acted out on purpose: if I recall correctly he missed a relatively easy win that could've kept him in the fight a bit longer because of an unpunished mistake of GO1. After a minute of desperation, he quickly shifts into proper manner and shakes hands!

This. The great thing about fighting games is that today is one of the best times to join: there's lots of online activity, long past the days in which you needed a local tournament to actually play. You will find a passionate player about literally any fighting game on earth, no matter if it's an indie title (I suggest Punch Planet!) or an old KOF classic. Hell, good rollback implementation even makes playing on (decent) wi-fi actually acceptable.

True! I get what you mean. To be fair, Lucy is also at least a "curious" choice; we can't really say the same about SNK & Capcom basically exchanging their most famous fighters in a desperate hope of selling more to each other's playerbase.

I'm a little sad about Under Night because I can't fully get into the vibe of that game... which is weird, since I love the art direction of melty blood. Just something about those big chunky pixels animated at 60fps.

Arcsystem clearly knows how to make a crossover character that fits into the game's direction while still tying heavily to its origins.

All of the other crossovers I've seen from the popular titles have felt so lifeless in comparison.

Actually, nowadays it's very soloable: you can experience all of the story by yourself thanks to the Trust system. I only recently tried it, and control scheme wasn't as bad as I expected (but you do need some patience). From what I gather you don't really need to learn about macros and gear swapping mid fight in order to clear story content.

free trial players can be friend-requested and party-invited from non-trial players :)

I haven't played Dawntrail yet, but I have to admit that I felt something was troubling the game even in earlier expansions: as I finished both ShB and EW I couldn't help but be left with a state of "oh, tome grinding... again... in the same exact way as all the other expansions". No one seemed to care, however, so I thought it was my problem. And it's a big shame, because I expected differently from Dawntrail: from what I heard, it feels more like the character going on a vacation than anything, with really just the same gameplay loop.

Another thing I was expecting from Dawntrail, apart from big gameplay changes, is to redefine the story more significantly: FFXIV up to Endwalker was a great story, but sometimes I couldn't help it but feel like I didn't want to be so central to everything: it's great when MMOs make you feel like "a hero from the sidelines" because there's less immersion breaking (and FFXI did this succesfully, if I recall). I think writers really dug themselves in too deep of a hole:

spoilerhow the hell do you write a threat that feels significant after you've talked about universes, ancestral gods from previous eras trying to destroy everything, etcetera? I understand that resetting everything to the point of no one having any recollection of the Hero of Light would have required a lot of writing, but maybe it would've been better - having EW's ending trigger a sort of memory-wipe similar to that of FFXIV 1.0's story.

From what I hear - reason I haven't played it yet - is that Dawntrail is fram from such expectations. I agree that once you try FFXIV's legacy controls you can't go back. Same thing goes for gamepad optimization.

Grazie mille! Sto provando da firefox. Non sono riuscito a sceglierne quante voglio, ma perlomeno la soluzione di de-selezionarle tutte funziona :)

 

Buongiorno! Ho notato, provando ad interagire con altre istanze, che nelle impostazioni di feddit posso scegliere solo due lingue alla volta, 'undetermined' e un'altra a mia scelta. Questo mi rende praticamente impossibile leggere i contenuti taggati in "english", per esempio, mentre la selezione è impostata su "italiano".

Qualcuno sa come risolvere?

 

I'm back for my annual month on FFXIV, but I honestly admit I'm growing a bit tired of the gameplay loop, the "omg you're the main hero !!" story and the sometimes very weird community. I love the world setting though, so I usually stick around anyway.

I would love to give GW2 more chances, but I'm not totally vibing with the combat system; plus, I wish art direction went a little differently, the game is not exactly holding up well these days (but I admit that square-enix is quite a high standard in that regard: even FFXI still looks artistically coherent, two decades and a half later).

 

Hello! After discovering that navidrome implements smart playlists, I've been seriously thinking about using faves or ratings.

What about you? Do you use ratings and faves, and if yes, for what reason? Do you use track or album ratings? I'm curious, since I'm sure one can get pretty creative with it.

 

I've never really put a protective case on my handheld consoles (NDS, Vita, 3DS). However, the Steam Deck is more expensive and weighs much more, meaning that even a small height fall could more easily damage it.

I was thinking about the Spigen "Thin Fit Pro", which seems to be a tad more premium than what is usually on the market. It seems to be cut out to fit in an official dock, but I have my doubts.

What's your take on this?

Hello all! I hope someone checks the community here on lemmy. Yesterday I copied some backups to my retrodeck's installation on the Steam Deck, togheter with a psx backup. The latter got recognized fine by the in-built scraper using screenscraper.fr with an account, however the PSP ones did not.

I tried various names and I also tried to toggle on interactive mode. Any suggestions?

Edit: aaaand of course I fix it in around ten minutes after posting this, even if I tried for hours yesterday. The solution was to TURN OFF interactive mode (found it suggested in a patch by EmulationStation-DE) and change the name of the ACTUAL FILES (not the ES-DE scraper search) to the ones found on screenscraper.fr for the game you like.

Of course this is only a solution for small libraries with few selected titles, but it does work for me.

Hi! I've been working on a list of RPGs (mostly japanese or j-influenced somewhat) in which the cast is mostly adults. The list is hosted on backloggd.

Leaving it here both in case it may be useful to anyone, but also in case you spot any missing titles that you believe should be added :) cheers!

P.S: the only reason for not taking western RPGs into consideration is because.. well, most of them already feature adult casts. Think series such as Divinity, Shadowrun, Baldur's Gate, etc. However, those usually play dramatically different when compared to the JRPG-style turn-based combat.

 

Which titles are you ready to play on your linux-powered machine, be it pc or steam deck?

I'm having a blast with Death Stranding (albeit performance can be a little groggy on my dated i5-7500); I then plan on playing DOOM (2016) and Hades.

Howdy! Dilettandomi nel disegno ho pensato si potrebbe creare una comunità dedita a qualsiasi cosa definibile come creazione creativa: sculture, poesie, ricami, videogiochi, un mobiletto (magari evitando la cucina? penso quella necessiti di un sub a parte).

Tutto ciò però creato unicamente e direttamente da chi posta, non avrebbe altrimenti senso.

Se poi una di queste categorie diventa troppo grande si può creare una nuova subdirectory, lasciando questa generalista? Non so, ditemi voi
