I grabbed YL as Epics freebie at some point and was very hyped since at our place we just love co-op gaming. Turned out that the second player could have an unplugged controller as well, it wouldn’t change anything. We played 5 minutes total.
Did that years ago, just called it cds. I also have an “up” command which is an alias to “cds …”. Oh, and I have a “setup server_name” they copy all my aliases to a server and create an alias that allow me to “ssh -A server_name” using only server_name.
It is a reference to the Superman film (1978). This scene was truly scary when I was a kid and its weirdness very likely has something to do with it.
Same here even without dangerous activities. I may look up where my partner is at the end of the working day. Still in the office? May be a rough day, I can think about some nice dinner and serve a glass of wine 30 seconds before she comes back home.
Oh right! It’s not a spoiler, it was one one the announced features, I just misused solo vs single-player.
Didn’t play the first one yet, but your insight is very interesting. Honestly, I cannot understand why any game wouldn’t offer the “storytelling” mode. It’s a solo game, just let people play how they want to. It’s like selling a toy car and saying “You can only drive it on a carpet with four wheels touching the ground at any time”. Nope, my (hypothetical) toy cars will be goddamn submarines if I want them to.
Didn’t know that, that’s cool!
Honestly, there’s nothing you can really miss IMO, the game presents everyone and everything in a nice and smooth way and you won’t ever be lost.
Just Cause series is great for that, JC3 being an absolute joy of free movement. I used to spend hours just gliding with grappling hook and fly suit.
Loved Steep and have tons of hours on it. However, my issue with it is that it is a purchase for a single playthrough: there’s no way to start over. I didn’t play in years, mostly forgot how to play and would like to have a few tutorials, rediscover the open world again, etc.
Well, I will just stick to PC and Steam Deck even if I consider price/hour money.
Yup, Last Samourai is 22 years old. Back then a lot of social issues have not been widely discussed.
Yeah, you unlocked many memories of mine. I played CS back in 90s, train with bots and learn map layouts at home, then play team vs team in a club. A bit later with ADSL started to play online and it was still kinda cool. When life fast forwarded me to Quake Arena and R6S it was very fun but I never ever made any online friend. Maybe a couple of people in R6 with whom I played a few times but even then the toxicity outweighed the team play fun.
Yup, either this or the matchmaking is in find-the-most-toxic-people-available mode. I almost stopped playing online to be honest, I’d rather play couch co-op or even a good solo game.
No no, definitely the smell /s
Wow, the whole room becomes brighter with HDR off /s
It was my thought as well. IIUC the game engine, Anvil Next, is the same that has been used since Valhalla so it shouldn’t be the engine issue.
(Didn’t play it yet and probably wouldn’t before big patches after a year or so, take me with a pinch of salt)
I cannot understand how is this game rated Steam Deck compatible if it is badly optimized? Valhalla was fine on SD but it never had perf issues that bad on current/next-gen. Anyone tried it out on SD (or maybe another handheld)?
I am still a Lemmy noob and didn’t grasp all the instance/community points yet. This community is kinda about physical games as well so I gave it a shot. But thanks for pointing out that instance, seems to be a lot of related stuff and would be more appropriate for sure!
I have a weird feeling about that one. Feels like it should have been a VR game but it was reviewed to be a flat screen after all. Also, I am personally more and more inclined to play couch coop instead of online co-op so this title wouldn’t just work.
