For me it has the same potential as Factorio (which I love) but without the environmental threats keeping me on my toes, it just gets kinda… dull.

What?

I’m mildly suspicious of how rarely it recommends AMD cpus.

Loneliness and dread. Yes plz.

I’d love to know the power draw, the article doesn’t mention it (that I could see).

It’s pretty nuts to be able to take something as complex as a video game and to run it on unintended hardware.

PS3 next?

I knew the first, but not the second.

That’s a good reply, but even the pitch there doesn’t tell me anything about the class of consoles we’re taking about.

I am RetroDECK!

With all the love in the world, from one engineer to another;

Fix the docs!

I went looking for an explanation of what RetroDECK is, found this: https://retrodeck.readthedocs.io/en/latest/wiki_about/what-is-retrodeck/

And I kind of know how it works, but not what it does. (At least without clicking through to the ES-DE page)

Give people an elevator pitch as to why they want to download and use this software.

“RetroDECK brings the powerful emulation capabilities of ES-DE to the SteamDeck in one easy to install, easy to use package. Play your <exampleConsole1>, <exampleConsole2> and many more from your couch or on your TV with any controller you like!”

Something something ChatGPT can sex that up a little.

Somehow, Ubisoft has done a great job with R6. The game is 8 years old and came out in a time when other shooters were a yearly hit and run.

The game is fun to play without dumping a bunch of money into it. You can’t really ask for much more than that.

And this is Ubisoft!! Renowned for being a shitstain in the gaming world.

Honestly, at this point an announcement of Siege 2 wouldn’t be at all outrageous.

So let them have their subscription. Buy it or don’t. But the game is fun (or at least it was the last time I played it) Genuinely, you could make the game free with the option of this subscription, that might be a legit idea.

Fucks up spider mites and the like real nice, tho.

“The Undying”

“Sean Bean”

Ok, let’s see where they go with this.

“Most clicked on games of 2023”

BotW was better, imo. But that doesn’t make as pleasing a headline.

That is a great question! I’ve certainly asked myself the same thing and the only answer I can come up with in 2 parts.

1: The game is compulsive. While you are playing you want to keep playing. And while the moment to moment interactions are dull (imo) but not so dull as to drive me away. There may be plenty of Oblivion nostalgia keeping me playing.

2: Many of the games problems appear in retrospect. The dumbing down of the subsystems, for example. Much like Outer Worlds; it feels fine while you’re in there but once you stop and step back you realise how crappy they are.

That’s all I got for now.

Hello, I have 80 hours on Skyrim recorded in Steam.

I do not like Skyrim.

Smacks of Factorio meets Infinifactory

There’s literally nothing about any of these posts that pertains to you, and yet here you are.

And you don’t see any irony in say this?

Learn to fucking read like the part where the OP was clearly talking about goddamn whales. Right, and context was added to expand on that, do you dislike when people add new information to a discussion that makes it harder for you to hate on and exclude others?

I know your just trying to troll and be obnoxious, but legitimately my render times dropped by an obscene amount.

20 mins per frame down to about 30 seconds over a 250 frame animation is very significant for me.
