I really would have loved for the “ride out” cutscene to play in one piece. Having Volt run along instead of hopping on a bike is chef’s kiss

Congrats on the release!

How is lemmy-ui-leptos coming along? Curious to know when it might be ready for primetime.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 2 months ago

He’s another frame I like to take for a spin from time to time. I have a bit of a soft spot for Exalted melee brawlers; they’re one of my favorite power fantasies for frames.

I think his Restraint mechanic is an interesting way of gating access to his strongest ability, though I do find it hilarious that his optimal build requires you to absolutely decimate his ability duration.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 2 months ago

I really like using the Battacor for its looks and versatility.

As for melees, nothing beats the Ohma for me. I just really like tonfas.

Kayn@dormi.zone · edit-2 2 months ago

It’s easier to make small saves for games like The Pedestrian, because essentially all you have to track is which puzzles you’ve solved.

Whereas in an RPG with a persistent world like Cyberpunk or Skyrim, you have to save the state of every single object and mechanic the player has interacted with during their run, and there are usually a whole lot of those.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 3 months ago

With GOG, you can at least have full confidence that the game will continue to work without any outside connections.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 3 months ago

I didn’t say they deserve no protection at all. You are twisting my words because my opinion doesn’t align with yours.

I advocate for games having a clear indicator for any online dependencies. I do not advocate for outlawing said dependencies or mandating “offline patches”.

If you are clearly told that you’re buying an ephemeral product and you are still surprised when it shuts down, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 3 months ago

This basically boils down to “read the terms & conditions”, which isn’t unreasonable.

If a game states in its terms that access may be revoked at any time and you buy the game, then you have no reason to be surprised when access is eventually revoked.

Obviously when terms aren’t clear enough or intentionally obfuscated, that’s indeed an issue for legislation to act upon.

Devstream #179 Megathread

Kayn@dormi.zone · 3 months ago

I’m really curious to see how this will end up feeling.

And slightly worried about the amount of Forma I might need to adapt all my stuff.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 3 months ago

All this wouldn’t be necessary if gamers would just stop buying games that are obviously live services with remote kill switches.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 4 months ago

How else do you expect the moderators of that sub to keep out raiders and spam bots?

A: is squadlink ever coming back?

Q: favourite voice acting parts for Ben

A: some not yet revealed stuff, also that he is a lovable character, despite being a relatively rough, “cool” character

Q: Titania Buffs?

A: tribue might be more user friendly, but she’s otherwise in a very good spot

Those Dex Pixia do kill, indeed

Here’s to hoping the post shows up without any issues this time!

Kayn@dormi.zone · 4 months ago

And that was the end of GOG

How?

Kayn@dormi.zone · 5 months ago

I’m confused. I opened the first 6 issues featured in your lemmy-ui link and you closed them all yourself?

Kayn@dormi.zone · 5 months ago

I’ll stop including the Twitch channel as the post link, perhaps that might help.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 5 months ago

All good! Thankfully there’s been plenty of reports coming in for each post. I hope this community didn’t cause your team too much trouble.

Kayn@dormi.zone · 5 months ago

Yes, please keep reporting! I’ve been informed that the federation of post removals wasn’t slow, but rather not happening at all because I applied instance bans to the spammers, which doesn’t federate content removal.
