it's called DCRES or "Dream(cast) Resurrection" and has a bunch of releases, mostly shoving the data to the outer parts of the disc for faster loading and stuff like that

this is cool, thanks for the tip!

won't the iso not fit on a cd though? what with the dreamcast discs being weird and all?
i imagine shenmue uses up pretty much all the space on the disc if it comes on 3

why don't they get seasons? it's probably linked to the fact that characters/stash are stored locally and not on battle.net for console gamers

well the 900mb "GD-ROMs" dreamcast uses are basically just bigger cds in the same format and since 95% of all dreamcast games don't use the entire disk space, regular 800mb cds work just fine. for games like shenmue which actually fill up 900mb there are scrubbed versions with removed/altered audio/video stuff so they still fit on regular 800mb cds

there's a thing called a greater rift. grifts have a level associated with them, higher numbers being harder. the ladder ranks players by the hardest grift they've completed in under 15 minutes with faster times beating slower times in the same grift

a random, endless dungeon which gets progressively harder and you only have 15 minutes (iirc) to clear a floor; if you fail, you don't get to go deeper. it's p. rad actually

wouldn't d3 be really good for this then, since you can "respec" as much as you want at any time? it really isn't a spergy game like poe or whatever.

they can't play together because microsoft/sony didn't want the always on drm on their consoles. as a result it's really easy to hack in items in the console version whereas it is virtually impossible in the pc version. letting the groups play together would gently caress the pc version too

as for seasons idk

you can, however, get maximum hosed because you hit a wall where you need a very specific piece of equipment to get any better and if that one item doesn't drop, you won't be able to press on

my experience is that wall only exists for massive spergs who want to play the game on quadruple purgatory or whatever and expect to play roughly 10k hours of the same game and complain about it the entire time.
