  • I get what you’re saying but there are ways to implement it in the gameplay with prompts, descriptions and dialogue.

    I love a lot of the games I’m criticizing, but sometimes they go too far. I’ll pick up the fart machine 3000 and the description will just say “Butt Fart Pfffft Toot Toot” and I’m just kinda left like wtf and i have to close the game and go into the wiki to see what the hell i just picked up and if its worth the inventory space


  • I don’t have an exact answer, but there are a lot of games that you need the wiki up on your second monitor for. Their tutorials teach you the basic controls, but nothing about what you’re supposed to do or anything like that.

    I feel it’s kinda lazy on the developer’s side and leave it to the community to do their job. You see a 5-10 min video on youtube explaining everything, yet the developer couldn’t do that?




  • It might also be worth looking at Steam Deck alternatives. GPD, AYA, ASUS, etc.

    I only own a Steam Deck, but I’ve seen a couple videos on alternatives and they look pretty good. Since you were already planning on spending laptop money, an upgrade might be worth it so your mom can have that extra power. They might not be as user friendly as the Steam Deck though

    i also recommend doing a factory install of your OS with a USB drive






  • I’ve been mostly playing Risk of Rain 2, but over the weekend I finally beat it after about 30 hours lol. I honestly didn’t even try to beat it, I was just having fun killing a bunch of things. I think it’s one of the only games where I don’t feel bad losing a 1hr+ run

    After finishing this game, I think I might have the confidence to go back and try to finish Enter the Gungeon. This time I might just look up a guide on how to finish it since I’ve been strictly trying to beat games without outside influence in recent years and I have no idea about anything outside of what I have discovered in the 15+ hours of gameplay I have so far


  • To me, having an SD card with DRM free games is even better than physical copies for switch and such. I’ve bought switch games before that aren’t actually on the cartridge and you have to download a bunch of stuff to get it running.

    Not only that, but files can easily be transferred and copied wherever you’d like.

    Idk if that’s an issue on ps5 and xbox
