No Wave posted:I've never played risk of rain 1. I'm convinced its secretly bad and am looking forward to finding out if I'm right. You are. It's a barely functional and poorly balanced game that manages to float via fantastic music and charming art. The remake, which I just played for several hours, improves on everything that was already good, and left all of the problems basically the same.

I actually never had much success playing quickly in risk of rain, and I had a lot of wins where I just kept collecting piles and piles of upgrades and managed to stay on top of the difficulty curve.

It is reminding me of "Void Bastards", down to the feeling of imprecision when it comes to projectile collisions lol, except with more verticality to the environments which is a neat kinda twist to this and makes sense since it's a spaceship

Ok let's pretend I like Dying Light 1 enough to considering purchasing the sequel. Is it worth 30$ if I thought DL1 was worth 30$ and if not what is wrong with it?

Hwurmp posted:Rockstar celebrating their contributions to gaming culture is like Pilate celebrating his contributions to Christianity Hey only Judas and Jesus himself are more important to Christianity so not sure what you mean. You don't get a dead god on a cross without these three working together. Judas and Pilate have cool songs in Jesus Christ Superstar about this too. I'm indifferent to most Rockstar games (the 2d GTA games were cool) but I do curse them for popularizing the shtick of slowly walking/driving/riding somewhere while a 'wacky' character talks. I can't skip it because it's not a cut scene and it's not a bare audio log that plays while I do something else. It's the worst combo of both.

Mordja posted:Speaking of ROR, the sequel just got a new expansion pack announced. i was a bit worried when i heard that gearbox is handling all the RoR2 future updates, but so far the new dlc looks extremely good. The new stages look fantastic and they talked a lot about how excited they are to expand different aspects of the lore, which i dont care that much about but im glad to see that they do they also said they’re bringing new characters and items with the dlc, making it basically exactly what i want from that. Time will tell if it’s ultimately good, but i do have decent hope for it

Otoh DL2 is actually very good now and they are updating it all the time. If you want more Dying Light I definitely recommend it.

Apparently Talos Principle 2 carries on from the story of the DLC of Talos Principle 1, and I thought "Talos Principle 1 had DLC?" It turns out I already owned it, but I don't think I played it. I didn't even remember that I bought it and never played it. I need to get better at finishing things.

I appreciated that Cyberpunk let you fastforward through car driving sequences where an NPC just talks at you. Although I also did appreciate sometimes just sitting there and taking in the views of the city.

Driving in a car game is good, and if you don't want to drive either it's not the game for you or the environment and/or mechanics suck. If the player is just teleporting around, then the game never should have been open world to begin with.

Or sometimes developers just want to give you the option to skip exposition segments on subsequent playthroughs

I find most open world game car sequences frustrating as 90% of the time they're heavily scripted, on rails sequences. If I wanted that poo poo I'd play Uncharted.

I want every open world game to allow slowing time and ramming cars over buildings like in Watch_Dogs. If it doesn't work with the setting, it should be something you can do and the game ignores it happening.

FYI, Cyberpunk only gives you an option to skip the drive when the NPC is driving, not the player. It's just an option to skip to your destination and not sit there in silence watching the NPC drive after the conversation finishes.

An actual Deck 2 is in development as well, but 2-3 years out. I wonder if this is the most in advance Valve has ever talked about something. https://twitter.com/jasonschreier/status/1722675542875402311?s=46&t=IW0MSOWK0Lh4VsB3wVLoOA

Differences appear to be: -Screen is OLED, HDR, 90hz, slightly larger -6nm vs 7nm Processor, runs slightly cooler, thus fan runs slower and quieter too -WiFi 6E instead of WiFi 5 -50Whr battery instead of 40Whr (25% increase) -30g (5%) lighter weight -Longer power cable  https://store.steampowered.com/sale/steamdeck_2023 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1KLj06fn2s New Steam Deck OLED models:  Old Steam Deck Model Price Drops

Revision now has metal bosses for the screws rather than being bolted into plastic. It's not like they are trying to make it hard to work on, the metal bosses exist solely to make it easier. The adhesive sucks but they must have a reason for it.

I would absolutely not attempt to remove an extremely flexibly battery that's heavily glued down and will shoot flames into your eyes if you flex it enough to make a weak point
