Certified foxgirl enjoyer. Weeb, but hasn’t properly watched anime in ages. Gamer of incresingly niche subgenres. Aficionado of racecars, mechas, fighter jets, and any other vehicles you can think of. Lives in the wrong side of the planet compared to all my friends.
Made accounts in 278 different instances in the Fediverse after escaping Reddit, is still kind of lost. Doesn’t know how hashtags work.
The last few years of remasters have amazed me with how much they HAVEN’T added emulator features even when the game is blatantly being emulated. Some of them miss save states or practice modes (particularly shmups) or proper key rebinding on the controller. I have 6x more buttons than the game originally needed, let me actually use them.
It’s been happening so much I think this is the first comment I try writing here in about a week. You say 20% but for me it’s more like 80% chance of it happening, sometimes when the tab has been open for just a minute. I’ve been just using my Lemmy account much more, even if it lacks several features I like about kbin.
I also don’t preorder, and I DO buy basically all FromSoft games on release because I know they’ll be bangers. But I’ve been burned before with Dark Souls 3 suddenly increasing in price by 50% in my region right before launch. I’m torn. I guess I’ll wait and see, again.
Ah, NOW they want to boycott the game?
Who’da thunk a browser made around crypto shit would do such a thing. I only use this browser on my phone because of the ad blocking to open links people send me, I should just get something else. Does mobile Firefox get proper ad blocking?
I cannot state a “FUCK YOU” big enough to reading those quotes from these devs. Screw all of this always online DRM bullshit. This era of gaming is irrepareably impossible to preserve for the future.
Emulators or just straight up portable platforms like a Nintendo Switch, are the one grace for gaming on the go. I’ve given up on phone games too.
Yeah honestly I’d like for upvotes, boosts and saves to actually work in more conventional ways we’re used to in other social media, instead of this weird “boost is actually an upvote but it’s also a retweet” and “upvote does nothing but actually saves it to your profile”
Yeah it’s going to be a process. For an example, the Gundam and Gunpla communities are relatively niche compared to other anime or model kit building (which are already niche things in of themselves) and while their subreddits are quite active, we still don’t have that critical mass (or much mass at all) of posts and content to engage with here. I have been meaning to, and plan on, making more posts to those so they get more activity.
Yeah, good that you guys are making such lists. It took me a few days to truly understand the “threadiverse” but now, as in right now, I am stumped trying to understand how does everyone integrate with Mastodon (which I understand to be not-Twitter) and then what do all of the other platforms even do! What is Misskey and how is it different from Calckey or Akkoma or Friendica… And how do they interact between each other. I am very confused but also very excited.
Honestly, while I’m happily settled here in the “threadiverse” and all that, I’ve seen that the main subs I used to visit and have now reopened, are all working about the same as before the protests. They were all basically niches, so they weren’t as badly affected by bot comments and the such. We will see, however, if their moderation can still keep up after the 1st tho.
Gundam Battle Operation 2. Wanted to see if they fixed the matchmaking, and it’s not as bad now.
Chunky heavy robots is my jam but the netcode is terrible…
Ah yes, cause the problem by promoting SEO websites with machine generated content, then sell the solution! Splendid!
Honestly I never even knew people didn’t like this term, wtf. It properly conveys the idea of an old-fashioned FPS game, with basic 3D graphics, many times based on 2D sprites. Me and all my friends play them, and we love them, and we all call it “Boomer Shooter”.
You should try out Omega Strikers! It’s free to play, but it’s done right imo. Very fun game of ball, 3v3 air hockey with anime characters. I’m usually super averse to PvP games and ranked modes, but even I’m trying to climb the ranked ladder in this one, it’s so much fun.
Is it already that time of the week? Well, I’m still playing BOTW, Dead Cells on my Switch, Dawn of War Unification mod on the PC, and some Omega Strikers on the side, slowly climbing the ranked ladder. I’m thinking I can make Gold rank before the end of the season.
Also taking a moment to get back into shmups, I popped onto Mushihimesama and Dodonpachi yesterday and I wiped before even the third bosses, I’m super rusty.
