I've finally finished my exams, and now finnaly have some time to play. I was wondering what games I should try out? I usually end up playing for 30 minutes before losing my attention span, so I'm looking for a very immersive and simple to get into game. Anybody got any suggestions?
Absolutely 100% this. Don’t look it up. It’s on game pass if you’re not confident - just grab it and play it. It’s possibly one of the best games ever made.
Not sure if this counts as an anime, but I re-watch Kimi no na wa (your name) at least once a year and have a good cry. It's good shit. 10/10 would cry again.

Man I am conservatively hyped for this game. I know it's bethesda and they could pull something and fuck it up, but god does it look good. Sure theres a normal amount of bethesda jank, but it theres also just so much going on... It needs to be september already.
I was initially introduced to Mastodon a few years ago by a close friend and picked up on it quickly given the benefits of not having to deal with advertising, or being shown what a mega-corporation thought I should have to see through algorithms. I have since found a great instance over on cupoftea.social that promotes quality...
This is me as well. I’m really enjoying the connection between kbin, lemmy, and the ability to see and respond to mastodon posts. I’m completely new to the federated idea, but it’s a really cool one.
Especially when their damage output tends to scale as well. I find you often get into situations that it feels like the devs haven’t even tested. E.g the enemy can 2 tap you easily, but it’ll take you wailing at them for 3 minutes to kill them. Suddenly you’re playing a soulsbourne game without any of the mechanics that make soulsbourne games work. Recipe for not having a good time in my opinion. Sure it’s harder - but it’s not a fun, challenging difficulty, it’s just a die more and spend longer on each encounter difficulty.
A refugee from reddit wanting to bring a question here. I'm looking to build a keyboard for work that would be ergonomic. Doesn't necessarily need to be split....
This is a really great resource, but just wanted to add my 2c. I've had (or at least used) most of the variations on this list, and if I could do it again, I'd probably just further down the list faster. I'm a programmer by trade so I spend a lot of my time typing, and I can't express how much of a positive impact building a dactyl manuform has had on my wrists (and just general typing comfort). If you have a 3D printer already it's actually pretty easy to put everything together, and you could probably definitely do it all yourself under your budget (so long as you already have the soldering equipment). The kits are definitely going to run you more though. That said, in my opinion, its worth going at least to columnar stagger if you're going to go down this route! (Plus - if you're already relearning to type, do yourself a favour and switch from qwerty to dvorak or colemak or something like that!)
Unity + Nintendo Switch and tears from the developer 😭
The process of creating a nintendo build takes more than 5 minutes, after launching it it crashes and gives a dump. But there is no point in reading it.
Code again, build again and crash again. And so on in a circle
Each iteration takes a lot of time if you don't understand what the problem is.
@maxim Yep that's been my experience too LOL. I've had some luck with crash dumps, but it's at best a vague indication of what might be wrong. Just throw 10 trillion logs at the problem until you isolate it xD
@maxim
Hmmm that does sound frustrating. I think your best bet will be to pop a question in the developer forums on the Nintendo portal. That way you can discuss specific NDAd stuff that we can’t discuss here, plus everyone there is super helpful in my experience.
@krajzeg I still see a lot of people on twitch streaming, but I've seen some on youtube lately too. My main problem with YouTube is that I just find it personally hard to find channels that I'm not specifically looking for. With Twitch it's easy enough to just go to the programming category and have a look around for something interesting. Not that twitch doesn't have it's own huge issues atm though.
finished this semester only one year left from the HND, does anyone got any recommendations of game dev related books? I want to learn more this summer about graphics and shaders in general #gamedev
@marcos Yeah not too sure what level you’re looking for. But I personally really enjoyed “Real Time Rendering” (4th edition), and “Game Engine Architecture” (3rd edition I think?). They’re both fun reads that cover a ton of ground!
I have two atm, one for my home computer (which I primarily game on, plus personal programming projects etc), where I use a 60% KBDFans HHKB Tofu with Zealios. For my work PC I went with something a little bit more ergonomic to save the ol' wrists a bit, and I have a self-built Dactyl Manuform Mini with Zealios also (I just really like Zealios, they're just my favourite way to the fealios).

What are some of your favorite Anime to re-watch?
I've been re-watching Hunter x Hunter lately. It has been really fun. What are some of the anime you keep going back to?

It's pretty quiet in here so I thought I'd post a video I enjoyed. Spudknockers tutorial videos are always great, super hyped for this to be released!

OC How did you end up finding kbin? Did you migrate here from Reddit?

What are some of your LEAST favorite game mechanics?
The other thread about favorite mechanics is great, so let's also do the opposite: what are some of your most hated mechanics?
Looking for a split ergonomic keyboard
A refugee from reddit wanting to bring a question here. I'm looking to build a keyboard for work that would be ergonomic. Doesn't necessarily need to be split....
Which keyboard(s) are you currently using?
Hello there! Thought I'd kick this community off with a question....
