Actually, nowadays it's very soloable: you can experience all of the story by yourself thanks to the Trust system. I only recently tried it, and control scheme wasn't as bad as I expected (but you do need some patience). From what I gather you don't really need to learn about macros and gear swapping mid fight in order to clear story content.
free trial players can be friend-requested and party-invited from non-trial players :)
Steam is the ultimate destination for playing, discussing, and creating games.

Durante questi saldi colgo sicuramente l'occasione per aggiungere Alisa alla libreria. Ho appena beccato inoltre No Case Should Remain Unsolved, che sembra quel genere di narrazioni 'mistero misto visual novel' che mi piacciono molto.
Poi, non scontato ma recentemente uscito in early access, sto anche pensando a Path of Exile 2, ma realisticamente non saprei quanto tempo avrei per giocarci.
E voi? avete trovato qualcosa di vostro gusto, questo inverno, sui saldi di Steam? Avete qualche giocone da consigliare a chi ancora non lo conosce?
Grazie mille! Sto provando da firefox. Non sono riuscito a sceglierne quante voglio, ma perlomeno la soluzione di de-selezionarle tutte funziona :)
Buongiorno! Ho notato, provando ad interagire con altre istanze, che nelle impostazioni di feddit posso scegliere solo due lingue alla volta, 'undetermined' e un'altra a mia scelta. Questo mi rende praticamente impossibile leggere i contenuti taggati in "english", per esempio, mentre la selezione è impostata su "italiano".
Qualcuno sa come risolvere?
I'm back for my annual month on FFXIV, but I honestly admit I'm growing a bit tired of the gameplay loop, the "omg you're the main hero !!" story and the sometimes very weird community. I love the world setting though, so I usually stick around anyway.
I would love to give GW2 more chances, but I'm not totally vibing with the combat system; plus, I wish art direction went a little differently, the game is not exactly holding up well these days (but I admit that square-enix is quite a high standard in that regard: even FFXI still looks artistically coherent, two decades and a half later).
I see! What I'm trying to wrap my head around is the need for a playlist that I can just throw on the car or the home hifi when I have guests that will output a strong selection, meaning stuff I either very much like or absolutely love. My server has every CD I have in the house copied onto it; and while I am sure that nobody minds Bob Dylan, my dad's collection of over 30cd gets a little invasive after I hit random shuffle of all songs.
Sounds pretty similar to what happened to the PSVita. Sony tought that there was no reason to support a portable console anymore. Pretty funny, now that we have seen the absolute boom of the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck.
To be fair:
- it got a remaster; a remake is usually something that recreates the game from scratch.
- DMC1 did not age that well in terms of gameplay, imo, as much as DMC3 did; it's a little stiffy! But it is true that it still plays much better than many PS2 games.
Hello! After discovering that navidrome implements smart playlists, I've been seriously thinking about using faves or ratings.
What about you? Do you use ratings and faves, and if yes, for what reason? Do you use track or album ratings? I'm curious, since I'm sure one can get pretty creative with it.
I've been using Tempo for my daily commute. Substreamer's UI makes a tad more sense and is more helpful in certain instances (eg. randomizing albums is a bit of a pain on tempo) but I prefer Tempo because it doesn't crash as much!
GTA games are the epitome of shallowness, for me. The story is always so vague and not interesting, you never get attached to characters. Gameplay is a boring loop, but its strength has always been being some sort of theme park. But it's 2024 and "hop onto a game just to go fast on car and shoot a couple of civilians"
Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Like Pokémon, nintendo developers know fans will buy new games regardless of how much new content there is to it. There is no legitimate reason for the game to be so close mechanically to its Gamecube entry, and I find it an insult to long time fans.
It makes sense, but I highly suggest to try and see visual novels as reading material with mixed media (e.g. music). Many are very mid, but some do excel: Higurashi and Umineko are a great example of that.
Do you have anything to suggest? Me and a friend would like to re-dive into minecraft as a cozy co-op experience but we both have some experience with it from 2010-2018 and the new stuff that came out the last few years just don't look that convincing.
I've seen modpacks mentioned, but there's so many I don't know where to start
I second this. A second hand 64gb deck is probably under 300€ if you are a bit patient and search local online used markets, while a new nvidia shield pro is around 220€.
Pretty much supports most controllers OOB, is literally a console that you can play less demanding games on, has a high resell value if you don't dig it!
I actually just bought a second hand Lift, waiting for it to arrive. My hands are medium sized and I always used a modest size mouse, the Logitech G305, with ease.
Check official specs on the Logitech website, not Amazon: that sometimes weights the whole package, sometimes it doesn't. The Lift is supposed to be lighter and smaller than the MX!
It's absurdtpo me how basically no racing game company realizes that one of the key points to have your game be fun is to have some kind of progress. Contemporary racing games literally just throw cars at you in hope to make it fun by constantly giving you new toys.
I get that this is a thing that sells to the masses who /want/ those shiny new toys, but man. Imagine if a big studio actually took the time to improve on the vintage NFS progression formula :(
aaah sorry my bad, I guess I misunderstood
I'm sorry but it is definitely nowhere as close as the kind of harassment women receive. They have to deal with insults based on their gender, sexual harassment, digital stalking outside of games, etc
to be fair you can run on fresh kernel on linux mint through easy gui steps on the update manager!
Persona's combat system, if tweaked correctly can be a tremendous strength: there's a chance to have a great turn-based system in which elements play the role of the main "puzzle" to strategize over with both your demons and your party cast. I agree that Persona 5 had very little strategy in it, let's hope for future entries to be better.
I wonder what kind of battle system the new Atlus JRPG will have
fyi: SMT and Persona based their combat system on weak points way earlier than P5. I'm not saying it is immune to criticism, but it's a series standard by now

I've never really put a protective case on my handheld consoles (NDS, Vita, 3DS). However, the Steam Deck is more expensive and weighs much more, meaning that even a small height fall could more easily damage it.
I was thinking about the Spigen "Thin Fit Pro", which seems to be a tad more premium than what is usually on the market. It seems to be cut out to fit in an official dock, but I have my doubts.
What's your take on this?
Hello all! I hope someone checks the community here on lemmy. Yesterday I copied some backups to my retrodeck's installation on the Steam Deck, togheter with a psx backup. The latter got recognized fine by the in-built scraper using screenscraper.fr with an account, however the PSP ones did not.
I tried various names and I also tried to toggle on interactive mode. Any suggestions?
Edit: aaaand of course I fix it in around ten minutes after posting this, even if I tried for hours yesterday. The solution was to TURN OFF interactive mode (found it suggested in a patch by EmulationStation-DE) and change the name of the ACTUAL FILES (not the ES-DE scraper search) to the ones found on screenscraper.fr for the game you like.
Of course this is only a solution for small libraries with few selected titles, but it does work for me.
The list is expecially focused on turn based or action RPGs that at least somewhat share certain eastern influences that are beloved by JRPG fans lengthy story memorable characters and bosses carefully crafted world etc Those are the subgenres where we find most casts of kidsteens and I was a littl...

Hi! I've been working on a list of RPGs (mostly japanese or j-influenced somewhat) in which the cast is mostly adults. The list is hosted on backloggd.
Leaving it here both in case it may be useful to anyone, but also in case you spot any missing titles that you believe should be added :) cheers!
P.S: the only reason for not taking western RPGs into consideration is because.. well, most of them already feature adult casts. Think series such as Divinity, Shadowrun, Baldur's Gate, etc. However, those usually play dramatically different when compared to the JRPG-style turn-based combat.
Which titles are you ready to play on your linux-powered machine, be it pc or steam deck?
I'm having a blast with Death Stranding (albeit performance can be a little groggy on my dated i5-7500); I then plan on playing DOOM (2016) and Hades.
