I cannot recommend this game enough. It definitely not perfect--I had numerous complaints about its audio mixing--but the gameplay is so good. It does the System Shock/Bioshock formula extremely well. If you're going in for your first time, push yourself to experiment. The game is very good at letting you do things you maybe normally wouldn't think of.

Gameplay spoilers!

For example: There are times where you are locked out of a room in need of a keycard or passcode that you need to come across. Sometimes this can be mitigated by a simple swing of your wrench can break the glass; many people will likely figure that out. Sometimes, that locked room has glass, but it has bars preventing you from entering after breaking the glass. This may lead those who use the typhon powers to transform into a small object and move between the bars to get inside. Now, what do you do if you don't have the keycard/passcode, or have psionic powers? Well, there's a "weapon" that you can use called the Huntress Boltcaster. It's a toy gun that shoots foam crossbow bolts. You can use this to shoot the button on the inside of the door to open it. Incredible.

Those are slick! I might have to get a 3D printer one of these days. I'm not too familiar with how all this stuff works, but how long do printed frames typically last?

I'm actually not sure if this fully counts as a roguelike (because I'm not really super familiar with the genre), but I started Returnal on PC yesterday and it already seems to be a pretty darn good game only after 30 minutes of play time. I am looking forward to putting more time into it!

People have been saying that for years and yet Nintendo is performing quite well. The average consumer does not care about resolutions and framerates. If a Switch 2 does come out in the next couple of years, I would expect it to perform similarly to a PS4 Pro/Xbox One X with 1080p and 60fps as @ampersandrew had already mentioned.

I don't understand this specific complaint.

If you are subscribed to similar communities that exist on different servers/instances, then the likelihood of someone from each community posting the link is pretty high (especially if it is big news). If you are subscribed to 5/5 gaming communities that exist across lemmy, kbin, beehaw, and others, then yes, you are going to see similar content each time. I don't see how this is a problem because it seems to be working as intended.

If you're wanting to be subscribed to each because of the opportunity to engage in the comments with others, then just ignore the repeated content. Coming from Reddit, it was common to see the same post on gaming, pcgaming, & pcmasterrace. There's always going to be overlap.

Best story of the series. Please update when you finish!

I started playing Shovel Knight a couple days ago and I have really enjoyed my time with it so far! I'm not much of a 2D side-scroller/platformer kind of gamer, but this has been a lot of fun. I'm really looking forward to the other playable characters.

Other than that, I still hop onto Death Stranding occasionally. Being in the end game makes it really easy to hop in and make a few deliveries and then hop out.

Dragon's Dogma is so good! I loved the game. The story is pretty much nothing until the latter fourth of the game, but I find it pretty compelling and interesting. Stick with it if you enjoy the gameplay enough (not sure about that bug though); the payoff for playing through to the end and then scouring Bitterblack Isle is well worth pushing through the nearly non-existant story in the middle.

Enjoy! There's definitely issues with it, but the core gameplay and combat is just too good.

Those are way better than they had any right to be.

I watch Futurama almost daily. Usually when I'm doing dishes and I tell my Google home to play it, haha. I'm mostly just preparing my mind to be a little let down, but to also have an open mind!

I waited for about a week before starting it! I will gladly hand it over to anyone who wants to take control. I was wanting to make sure people who were migrating saw that there was a lot of communities to join.

Thanks for reaching out to them! I should have done that haha.

I trust you! I have been trying to add you, but I'm getting an error right now. I'll keep trying periodically and hopefully it'll go through soon!

Same. Used it since 2014.

I hope it also works for kbin!

That's great news. kbin has been a great experience so far and it really has so much potential.

You are killing it. Keep it up and take care of yourself!
