I get sick of Diablo style games quick, but that dude is really selling me on POE2. I love isometric games but the whole looty diablo style click to win gameplay is so boring to me. I've always wanted to play one with maybe less enemies and more focus on dodging and blocking so if that's what they are going for with POE2 I'm gonna check it out for sure.

Could you imagine trying to be polite to this guy at a party when he starts talking about games and you're like "oh my friend showed me hi-fi rush it was cute" and then he goes on about the shadow rendering making the PS5 the superior option?

nope, but buying an Optiplex Mini off of eBay for $30, an 8bitdo Ultimate Controller, and installing Batocera is better in every way anyway

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

Don't lose your gay


Anyone have an issue with their xbox controller, whatever the design lab controller is (not the elite version), intermittently losing signal while connected to PC? Like it would be for ~5s in the middle of a game. It doesn't seem to be the bluetooth dongle since I tried hooking it up to a music device and that works fine.

Midnight fight is top down Sifu with guns. Even has a parry. Skill trees. Different dodges. Guns have one clip and then tossed. Graphics remind me of those n64 wrestling games.

Ruiner also immediately comes to mind. Game is hard as gently caress at some spots though warning. Guns you pick up are one clip only; there is a flamethrower. You get an infinity bullet hand gun that you can upgrade at heavy cost to lose out on other skills. Dodge mechanic is emphasized. Skill tree is deep. Graphics look like cyberpunks main inspiration. Zoomed in isometric.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

Even with the official™ dongle I had problems with the controller losing signal at random intervals.

Turns out I really needed to pair the two again, since it had been quite a while since I last used it on PC.

Then several weeks later the Play & Charge Kit battery suddenly died and so now I'm just using it wired. Replaced that USB to USB-C cable that came with it tho, since that lengthy chap was clearly made for living room use. All good once again in the hood.

Bluetooth is a less reliable and secondary alternative to the official dongle, which doesn't use Bluetooth. So, if you have problems, get the Microsoft dongle or use a USB cable.

I've been using my Steam Deck for emulation but I want to try it out on my Series X as well.

Anything I should be mindful of before doing so? Or is it all safe enough.
