@jimmyb it is TrinityCore with some modifications to allow multiple expansions. I would like to use the Cataclysm game client with support for phasing maps but it would mean porting maps from WotLK to Cataclysm among other issues. So going beyond WotLK is kinda in the backlog if I ever figure out how to solve it.
@danielsreichenbach Gotcha! It would be cool if one day we got to the point where there was a release that matched where retail is at. Maybe I should keep dreaming haha
Hallöchen meine #Mastonauten, ich dachte gerade so über Sega nach und darüber, dass ich einfach nichts mit den #Konsolen verbinde. Dazu müsst ihr wissen, #Sega ging zu 99% an mir vorbei in der #Jugend und hat mich heute noch nie gereizt.
Habt ihr auch so eine weit verbreitete #Konsole oder ähnliches, was euch nie erreicht hat?
Kennst du Age Of Empires? Da kann man eine Priestereinheit zur Bekehrung der Gegner verwenden und diese auf die eigene Seite ziehen. Dabei macht der Priester einen Sound der wie "wololo" klingt.

I just spent 3 hrs & 70% battery power, talking to my old gaming buddy in NY state. #GoodMorning#Bonjour
It's his birthday. We stayed friends, even though I stopped #gaming when Windoze 10 took away Sound Drivers & coding needed to play legacy games.
We were heavy competitors, often playing all night, or gaming weekends, on private servers.
I haven't played a FPS (1st person shooter) since. I Miss it!
Maybe I'm in denial but yesterday I broke and bought #BaldursGate3.
Now hear me out, I like #PatientGaming because I don't want to encourage game studios who put out broken games and hide functionality behind DLC. #BG3 doesn't do this, if I want other #gaming studios to follow suit, then I should reward the ones that put the customer first.
It's good to have #principles, and better to stick with them, but you need to know why you have them, and be willing to bend when the necessary.
I'm adding your commentary over to the Yes column. I'm a fan of Larian Studies, and bought their other titles, so holding off... is painful. I'm probably going to crumble soon, particularly with your (and others) positivity towards the release. 🤣
The purple Game Boy Color was my first ever game system, followed by the purple #GBA and then the blue SP. The original DMG needs some repairs and replacement parts, it was a garage sale pickup years ago.
I use the #SteamDeck a lot nowadays, but I still try to make time for the #retro#handhelds. The mini #emulation handhelds can be a nice change of pace as well! Do you still like old school handhelds? Let me know!
Ich bin krank daheim, die X-Box mit meinem geliebten Witcher 3 Spiel ist bei meinem Partner. Ich habe hier die Playstation 2. Welches Spiel ist am besten? (Ich habe sie noch nie gespielt.)
I'm ill at home. The X-Box with my beloved Witcher 3 Game is at my partner's. I'm having the Play Station 2. Which game is the best? (I haven't played them yet.)
@summ_a_rise44 Ich weiß es ja nicht, sonst hätte ich gar nicht die Umfrage gestartet. 😅 Du weißt, ich habe Probleme mit Entscheidungen. 😵💫 Aber wenn man sehr am Arsch ist, sind solche Videos wirklich toll.
How about “After losing his parents, a priest travels to China, where he inherits a mysterious ability that allows him to turn into a dinosaur. Although he is horrified by the new power, a hooker convinces him to use it to fight crime.”
I suppose I could introduce myself... that seems to be the protocol here?
I'm Emily (she/her), a 30something professional computer-toucher, although you probably won't catch me posting programming-related stuff here often. My main hobbies include #gaming (right now i'm playing #FFXVI, #FFXIV, #HonkaiStarRail, and #GenshinImpact in various amounts), #books (mainly #scifi and #fantasy), and #knitting & #crochet. Would love to have people to follow for any of these subjects ❤️
Really I'm mostly here to vibe. I'm not exactly new to the Fediverse (I made a Mastodon account back when Elon bought the birdsite) but I am relatively new to actually trying to engage with it (and social media in general TBH, until now I've never been much of a poster!). It seems like a comfy place to hang out that the corporate places never were, so I'm looking forward to meeting all of you!
Game help, please. Dad is stuck in hospital in US & bored out of his mind. I’m in UK. Need a turn taking game (like words with friends, but he hates word games).
He loves traditional games like dominoes & cards, but would like something new. He’s very unwell, anything complicated will go in the bin. His vision is ok, but tiny text will be a problem. We both have an iPhone.
Suggestions?
Retoots with helpful hashtags very appreciated thank you, I don’t know what to type 🫠
Good morning everybody! What are people working on today? Or reading? Or watching? Or hell even thinking about that isn't doom and gloom? :)
At work I'm having a blast building Concourse - https://concourse-ci.org/ meta-pipelines for OpenEdX user retirement workflows. It's been a great education in this rather complex and interesting software ecosystem :)
Later on I want to finish setting up #RetroArch on my #Xbox X. I really love how for $20 you can boot into "Developer Mode" where you get full access to the system. It's not #FLOSS but it's pretty open in a pragmatic kind of way.
I just found out yesterday also that #TIC80 - my favorite "Fantasy Console" runs great there as well. The idea of being able to play my TIC-80 games from the comfort of my couch with the large screen TV and nice controllers? #sweet :)
@katmmoss OOH I used to know Braille! I've thought about getting back into it, but Braille books are big and expensive, and I live in a tiny apartment so the idea of more $THINGS that I may or may not actually follow through with has put me off :)
I'm partially blind myself and learned it when I went to a summer camp for the handicapped (Which is what they called it back then. Don't shoot me :) as a kid. They had an extensive Braille library and I LOVED that way of reading.
I've often thought that Braille would be a great skill for anyone to pick up because of all the neuroscience around the idea that you can improve your overall brain function by incoroprating senses you don't usually use.
Hrm.
I've avoided Nier: Automata because of the fanbase/fanart, but I just got curious and actually looked up a short video and... it kind of looks like what I wish Bayonetta 3 had been.
Anyone have any experience with it? How open is this? Hub based? JRPG styled? Level based with larger stages?
@NaClKnight@Gwendolyn I think Gwendolyn said it very well, the fourth wall break combined with the 😏 face you can see on the devs face.
It would be annoying as hell having to wear something like that and be careful about indecent exposure all the time, so maybe trying to identify with the character, some of that annoyance transfers over. In a way, if 2B only wore underwear it would be less annoying 😂
I've been questioning myself about why I feel this way and was trying to process why despite being into gals, I wasn't a fan of fanservice. Like, sure I like what I see, but not like this, and I think you nailed it. I can't help but put myself in her place and i guess there's like a feeling of second hand violation.
So I got a notification that a demo for Stellar Blade was available for download on the PlayStation store earlier today while at work right? So I’m like hell yeah, download that shit so I can play it once I get home.
Fast forward a few hours and I turn on my PlayStation once I get home and there is a notice from Sony saying ‘oops that demo wasn’t supposed to be available yet so we removed it from your account’
MFER! THE GAME WAS ALREADY ON MY CONSOLE!! SO YOU F**KS CAN JUST REMOVE MY WHOLE LIBRARY IF YOU WANT TO?!?!
mad about this. That should NOT be possible. F this gaming ecosystem we have nowadays. #Gaming#Rage
@neatchee@sayonaraminasan No worries. I mean you no personal ill-will. I'm not being sarcastic or facetious when I say that I'm just some idiot on the web, and I am sorry that I offended you. Please have a good night.
@NullNowhere@sayonaraminasan Thank you for saying so. I take you at your word. And I'm not the type to hold grudges over relatively minor shit like this, so you don't need to worry about that. :CuteWave:
