Former distrohoppers, where did you settle down?
  • I've been using manjaro for around a year. It broke on me once, probably my fault, idk. I enjoy it! I've distro hopped many places and a year is a long time for me, so much about it is right for me. You'll certainly get a worthy experience of what arch is capable of, I believe.

    That being said, I plan on swapping to arch really soon.

  • 5 years after shutting down, MOBA hero shooter Gigantic is coming back
  • I'm crying I loved this game so much, even enough to pilfer through the convoluted mess it is to join a private server lobby to continue playing. Ahh I'm so excited!

  • What is something you wish you knew sooner, or what is something that would have helped you earlier on in your journey?
  • The band She/Her/Hers has a song called Nvr Pass about this exactly.

  • Just Got an 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller, What Now?
  • Huh, I've used bluetooth mode consistently on my PC. I am on linux however so maybe that has something to do with it.

  • Nintendo Switch Successor Rumored To Have Been Shown To Press/Devs At Gamescom
  • I do not want 4k on this tiny screen 😭

  • Final Fantasy XVI Suffers From Its Superficial Handling Of Slavery
  • And people have said it to me too, but move the goalpost to requiring completion to critique. I stopped playing because it wasn't enjoyable for me, and trust that I would hate it more if I had to deal with it longer than I did.

  • Final Fantasy XVI Suffers From Its Superficial Handling Of Slavery
  • Kotaku has been releasing quality write-ups on FFXVI since launch, and from most of the spaces I have seen them shared, Kotaku has only received hate for sharing many of the same sentiments I have regarding this game.

  • Besides Robux, What Can I Give to My Little Brother that Plays Roblox?
  • Luella, I just started a couple days ago with a friend of mine :p

  • What are some open source games you can recommend for Linux?
  • I'm not all that far in the game, but it seems progression revolves around crafting. Killing enemies and mining for materials to make various armours and weapons to take of harder dungeons.

    I don't believe there are quests or pvp yet unfortunately, but it still ends up being fun despite being a highly ambitious game truthfully barely scraped the surface of its ambitions yet.

  • Besides Robux, What Can I Give to My Little Brother that Plays Roblox?
  • Hey, I recognise your username from Veloren last night!

  • great experience at my new job!
  • Thanks for sharing Emma! I get pretty doomey thinking about how anything like this would never happen where I live, and it probably won't for a while. It's still nice to hear some hope, that this kind of thing isn't unrealistic.

  • Palia's PC Clsed Beta Began Today!
    palia.com Palia – Welcome Home

    A cozy community sim MMO for you and your friends.

    Palia – Welcome Home

    It's a really fun cozy MMO that has kept me addicted all week! To me it's a beautiful fusion between Stardew Valley and RuneScape.

    Fishing, Farming, Woodcutting, Hunting, Mining, Cooking, even Furniture Crafting are all skills you can level to unlock new things to do associated with that activity. Along with all the socialising NPCs and romancing that Stardew has to offer. Such a great hook and gameplay loop that has me wholly absorbed.

    How much do you use your deck? Was it a good purchase?
  • I usually play around an hour each day.

    Absolutely no goals, I just enjoy gaming on the go, it's a vessel for that and I'm a strong candidate.

  • Best "Lets Play" Series
  • I'm not really a fan of Let's Plays, so it makes sense my favourite is CowChop's Shadow of the Colossus Let's Play. After around five episodes they abruptly decide to rent an RV and road trip to the Grand Canyon, all while still "playing" the game.

    It is surreal.

  • [Game] Recommendations for factory games
  • Nova Lands vouch, very good.

  • [Discussion] I have a spare Dualsense controller that I may use on ps5, use that or buy something like the 8bitdo ultimate?
  • It's your preference, however in the event the Dualsense ages too old and needs replacement, assuming you have a PS5 you'll need to replace it to continue playing on PS5

    My main platform is PC, I have various consoles and I keep a unique controller for each because on PC I play enough to burn through controllers, If I use my one Dualsense that would risk my ability to play on my PS5 until I replace it and limit my next controller option to just the Dualsense.

  • whats a game that you got significantly far into, only to realize you were doing something wrong or missing a key feature/ability altogether?
  • I know, that's what I meant because it's tied to the demons you equip, I used them solely as stat boosts.

  • whats a game that you got significantly far into, only to realize you were doing something wrong or missing a key feature/ability altogether?
  • Nioh. You can transform into demon mode and I didn't know until I played the sequel. It's a soulslike so I played it exactly how I play Dark Souls which made me completely lose out on the unique and in-depth systems the game has to offer.

  • What are your use cases for the Steam Deck?
  • I have a 1.5 hour commute in total each day to work, so that entire time can be spent gaming. I really like my bed, or the couch, or just in general different settings especially for the cozier games I prefer.

    I game a lot so spending dozens of hours a week at the same desk and chair doesn't work very well for me. The option to play handheld or use my dock to move from my bed to my living room tv seamless is very welcome. Even once at a family gathering I brought it for us all to play Jackbox and it was a blast.

    I play a lot of cozy games, ones that deserve to be played huddled up in a blanket on a couch, and I find them all the more enjoyable on Steam Deck than my Desktop.

  • What games have y'all been playing a lot on your deck recently?
  • I wanna 100% this game again just for the sake of playing it portably. Brilliant game.
