Phenotype posted:Can anyone suggest a game for me? I'm on a "feelings" high after going through Disco Elysium, Death Stranding, and Hypnospace Outlaw within a couple months. Is there another recent game out there that will make me feel stuff? Preferably not actiony, but maybe actiony I dunno. I've never been a point-and-click adventure guy but after Disco Elysium who knows. Haveyou played LISA The Painful and Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass?

precision posted:I thought LISA was kind of bad Why's that? FirstAidKite posted:
Yeah, Ding only made it because he was obliged to as it was a stretch goal, which was something he regretted in hindsight. Honestly there's no real need to play it. Just get Pointless or Hopeful for free off of gamejolt. FirstAidKite posted:I understand why people wouldn't enjoy it but there is definitely something special there depending on how you approach interacting with the game's world. What makes you say that? I felt like the ending was really appropriate and set up.

Actually, would an external ssd be actually useful for vidya games and making Doom not have a five minute load time each death (jesus) I'm out of the loop

do computers still come with e-SATA because isn't that just going to be exactly the same speed as an internal HD? e) my last "video archive" solution was just internal HDs using an ESATA cradle, was actually pretty convenient!

i'd imagine the bottlenecking factor there would be the connection you have it hooked up to more than the speed of the ssd but yes, ssds in general will absolutely disappear your load times compared to a platter drive

I had Doom on my ssd originally but it's a small one (120 gb lol) and Windows has eaten up too much space despite my efforts to dial it back to reinstall it. Thanks for the advice yall! e: It's getting p up there in years though, maybe I'll do an overhaul

How am I supposed to learn how to defeat the cyberdemon now? Seconding that SSD is the single, best hardware upgrade you can make (if you haven't already). The difference between my 3 disc, 10k rpm RAID array and a single SSD is worlds apart... ShallNoiseUpon posted:SSDs are bad because how else am I going to read loading screen tips and lore I think this is why I never learned you could switch powers in Bioshock Infinite.

If you have an e-sata port I think plugging an SSD into that will be just as fast as an internal drive. If you're using a laptop you almost certainly do not have an e-sata port; if it's a desktop, you might, maybe. In that situation you buy an internal SSD, since that's what the plug is for. It will just be outside your computer
|
# ? Jan 14, 2020 19:05 |

But if you have a desktop why are you bothering with the e-sata port? Shoving things into every nook and cranny of your voluminous tower case is the whole point!

I managed to get a decent amount of use out of an eSATA enclosure, because i had to do a decent amount of HD swapping

Bloodborne at launch with the stock hdd took 13.25 minutes to load each zone, and didn't even have item lore to read until they patched them in later so you just got to look at the word BLOODBORNE, presumably to remind you what game you were even playing at the time. It was a real power move.

This got posted in the RPG thread and I'm sharing it here cause it's coolEndorph posted:Some guy is doing randomized final fantasy tactics AI vs AI. basically fft saltybet. it's an incredibly fun watch. Endorph posted:You can use money you win to buy skills and classes to put yourself in as, but it's limited to one skill/item/etc, so you can influence your character to a certain extent but you have no control over what team you're on, and getting in at all is pretty RNG too. And you can also just put yourself in as something completely random. You have to pay 1k for the ability to select a monster class but the RNG option can just give you one, for instance. Basically between tournaments you just put in !fight (class if you want) (skill if you have one) and get put into the pool of people who can be put in.

It was a real power move. the actual real power move was that the game had fast travel but instead of just letting you teleport directly between warp points, you had to go through a hub zone first, so every teleport cost two load screens

Wow...Titanfall 2 sitting over here like catface meme. fakeedit: okay I just watched a couple of trailers and that also looks fun. I do feel kind of bad for id Software, who is now just cranking out endless 90s games for Bethesda.
