I’m so hyped for that DLC. I’m hoping it makes VS even more expensive and fun. It’s a match made in heaven.

That’s my favorite Castlevania game!! Good luck with your runs! I’m so hyped for the Vampire Survivors Castlevania DLC.

I’ve also been playing with my buds WEBFISHING which is basically an Animal Crossing esc chill fishing game with lots of neat stuff to do. It’s really fun to play just to hang out with your friends and chat.

If you want something more intense as well, STRAFTAT just released yesterday and it’s fun as hell. It’s basically a Free to Play (Not P2W) 1v1 arena shooter that’s really hectic. It’s got a really strange aesthetic that I really like and it’s quite fun for a free little game. And if you end up liking it, you can throw the devs a bone and buy a $5 DLC that adds more maps, weapons, and cosmetics. They even made it so only the host has to buy the DLC and anyone who connects gets to play on those maps with those weapons for free. Really neat little game and really fun with a buddy.

Just got into Metaphor ReFantazio! Just reached the first major dungeon and so far I am very impressed. Quite a lot of great QOL stuff over the Persona series, and it has a very well written story with a very unique vibe so far.

I personally think I still prefer the vibe of Persona over Metaphor, but this is seriously a really cool game. I highly recommend you try out the Prologue demo even if you’ve never played Persona before or don’t care for JRPGs, because this is something truly different and I think there’s still a chance you might like it. The demo is super meaty too since it’s literally just the first four hours or so of the game.

Can we talk about how he is directing people to not donate to him, but instead donate to help others in his area. Absolute Chad.

Have Eclipse on my list up next after I finish up Astro Bot. Happy to see it getting good reviews!

Just saw a post about this on TikTok and every one in the comments where cracking jokes and basically saying it was good she died. Couldn’t believe it. Whether or not you agree with how she ran YouTube, there’s no reason to be so cruel to a parent who died just after having to bury their own child. Glad Lemmy is being more thoughtful and respectful about this horrible situation.

Around 2017 I spent three days on and off trying to diagnose why my laptop running elementary OS had no wifi support. I reinstalled the wifi drivers and everything countless times. It worked for many days initially then just didn’t one day when I got on the laptop. Turns out I had accidentally flipped the wifi toggle switch while it was in my bag. I forgot the laptop had one. Womp womp.

Just tried Severed Steel this week after trying the demo for the studios next game on next fest last week. It’s an incredible movement shooter with a great soundtrack and really satisfying gameplay. Highly recommend. Regularly goes on sale for five dollars and it’s a steel at that price. :)

This looks really fascinating. Looks like this may have some more features that I need for my Stream Deck compared to other ones for it on Linux. Might have to hope on a Live USB and check it out. Thanks for sharing!!

I did take a look at that once before and it didn’t quite have all the features that I use daily on my Stream Deck, but thanks for linking to it! Maybe I should take a look again since it’s been a year or so.

There are three things holding me back from making the switch full time, I use a stream deck from Elgato for automating a lot of tasks, I stream VR titles from Steam, and I have an Nvidia graphics card.

I feel like this group of people are the kind that would already be on Linux though. If you’re that anti Microsoft why be on any version of Windows when such a great suitable replacement that also still works on these older systems exists?

Thanks for linking! Didn’t even think!

Used to be a big Nova user, but since I found Niagra I’ve never gone back. It’s just way too clean and simple. It drastically reduces the amount of time I spend opening apps on my phone and I don’t have to think about how to do the optimal home screen layout or set up app drawer categories.

I am still amazed by how they totally and completely one upped the numbered sequel to Life is Strange with a spin off side game. True Colors had so many tense moments and crazy plot twists, and in true Life is Strange fashion, both endings I feel have positives and negatives for the main character.

Warning! Don’t understand Lemmy spoilers yet. Read at your own risk!!

There’s the ending where you stay, you finally have a home, a family, and peace, but you give up your aspirations of being a musician.

Or there’s the ending where you get to travel the world, no home, but at least you have your partner and your music to share with everyone.

I actually picked the second ending strangely enough. I think most agree the first one is the better one, but I kinda thought that Alex would rather seek out greener pastures with her partner then stay in a place with so much trauma and bad memories. I like how the endings make you think and are more divisive than LiS 2.

Personal “Horticular”, pretty much a Viva Piñata indie clone. A little jank around the edges but shows promise!!

Whelp at least Paralives could be fun? Or that other one being worked on by Paradox? We honestly just need someone to save us at this point. Anything else would do so well even if it wasn’t quite as polished. It just needs to be feature complete at launch.

In the same exact boat as you. We have Mediacom or one DSL. They gave me a really good deal for the first year on my 1gig, but after that it’s going to be about $140 a month. To make matters worse too, the wiring in my apartment building is REALLY old, so the service cuts out randomly sometimes (All tenants in the building are on splitters sharing one cable with the apartment across the hall.) And of course the landlord said that Mediacom was trying to trick me into spending more money and he would absolutely not run new cable. Internet in rural areas of the US is a total shit show. My connection is somewhat stable now, but I can’t wait for something else to come to my area.

And yes I looked into Starlink, my building has a strict NO PUTTING UP ANTENNA policy.

And yes I looked into Mobile Carrier Routers and the fastest I can get is 50mb download with a data cap.

I feel your problem on a spiritual level.
