“People online are like, ‘Scott’s the worst character. Scott’s the villain of his own story,’ ” said O’Malley. “They really love to harp on that now, which no one mentioned in the 2000s. But yeah, so we thought let’s give them Scott as the villain of his own story, let’s do it proper.”...
Yes! I’ve got a pretty similar history with the series as you. Really enjoyed it. Loved being thrown the curve ball and seeing where it went. But, likewise, I also wondered where Lisa was. I guess maybe she wouldn’t have bumped into Scott at the mall and just gone about her merry way.
Got in late in last week’s thread so reposting. Got Gotham Knights on sale this week. It’s fine. All the technical issues seem to be gone. Enjoyable enough for $15aud. Also having a go at SYNCED, I like the aesthetic and could be a fun one for quick sessions. Doesn’t run very well though, getting pretty frequent frame rate dips even on low and on low it looks pretty rough.
Got Gotham Knights on sale. After all the patches, it seems to be pretty stable and so far I’m enjoying it. It’s certainly not amazing, but for $15aud it’s pretty good. Also trying out SYNCED and I like the aesthetic so far, but gameplay/controls are a bit mushy. It also runs like a dog with pretty inconsistent FPS.
I’ve never played any Gloomhaven (cost/size is daunting 😅) but I’ve just backed Buttons and Bugs as a bit of an ease in and the fact that it’s solo. Do you think Jaws of the Lion would be as satisfying solo?
Interesting. Similar to the ONEXPLAYER 2 and 2 Pro, with the 8inch screen and detachable controllers. So many buttons! I wonder if the detachable controllers works as is or if you need a controller dock like the OXP2.
You get used to it though. You can also set your launcher of choice to run on startup or use something like playnite and use which ever store is cheapest for any given game.
Yes! I’ve got the OXP2 and it’s great, but I dread the thought of having to send it back for repairs. Hopefully my next one will be a big brand that I can just return to store if anything goes wrong.
I’ve got an OXP2, which is 6800u/680m and my aim is usually ~40fps at 1920x1200. I’ve been playing Ratchet and Clank on it, and get that with upscaling, full power (28w), low (not very low) graphics and battery would last 2 hours. That’s obviously brand new. Before that I played Deathloop on medium, no upscaling at 24w and I got just over 2hrs. Fans run pretty consistently, but aren’t loud enough to bother me.
Ever since the language puzzle in Tunic that got me to fill up 6 pocket sized pages of notes over multiple days while trying to puzzle it out as I tried to and, eventually, succeeded at translating the in-game “paper” manual, I’ve had a craving for games that force you to pull out a notebook and take notes/puzzle things...
Yeah, I did this for the witness sort of. If I got stuck on a puzzle and was finishing up a session, I’d take a photo and then draw over the top of it as I went about my day, so I’d come back to the game with a solution.
I believe I read a while ago that beehaw defederated from lemmy.world. I’m new to the fediverse, so I’m still trying to understand exactly what that means.

So I'm in the process of switching from Spotify to Tidal for my music streaming (since Tidal pays artists like three times more than Spotify does). The only problem is, Tidal doesn't support podcasts, which is another big thing I used Spotify for....
I would also recommend Google Podcasts. Pretty basic, but does it all very well. Queue continuity across the app and web is great. However, Google being google, they are likely to be sunsetting it soon in favour of rolling podcasts into YouTube Music (which I would also suggest in place of Spotify).
