  • Happy birthday friend! Sorry to hear you've been feeling shitty, but enjoy this day however you best see fit. It's your day after all :)

    Always enjoy seeing you around the community and I ofc thank you for the contributions you make, especially the discussion threads <3

    Also we are very close birthday wise! Mine was just a few days ago

  • The fountain isn't where you think. And is much more accessible. Calling it a fountain is a bit much to be frank. If you were to drain it I think you would see what it's referring to

  • Yeah I've also never seen a tomb while drafting, but there is one other entrance that the map shows. Have you found the pump room?

  • Just rolled credits! Really amazing. But there's still sooooooooo much more

  • Yeah I agree there so far. I'll have to see once I beat it and peel back some of the layers. But yeah while it is scratching that same discovery itch for me, outer wilds is an unmatched experience. I will say though, while the rng is definitely different, there is a similar feeling to starting a new loop in OW and starting a new day in BP

  • Yeah I kinda get that. I've had a couple of those walls. But I think if you purposely try to pick rooms that you've not had, even if it seems bad or not useful things might start to piece together more. A lot of things can be useful in ways you might not expect. I think I've maybe had 1 or 2 runs where I truly learned nothing. Every other run has had some sort of knowledge or permanent progress. Also some rooms only appear on certain edges of the house. I've found some of the important profession related ones that way.

    But yeah it's a game you gotta treat as much as a roguelite as you do a puzzle game. And it unfortunately isn't for everyone

  • I will say the antechamber is just the beginning of the end game stuff. There's a lot more to go after making it inside

  • I think I'm at day 21 or 22. Made it to the antechamber for the first time yesterday. Not sure hours played atm

  • It's so good isn't it? Figured out some big brain puzzles yesterday and was blown away. Absolutely loving it

  • Steam deck is good! And if your Internet is good, any device that can do moonlight streaming.

    I have my steam deck plugged into my TV in my living room. I'm all hardwired and can use moonlight to stream my PC to my steam deck with no noticeable latency. I'm usually very picky about input lag / latency and I legitimately cannot notice it. Moonlight/sunlight is wayyyy better than steam remote play imo. And for indie games that the steam deck can run well, I can play natively from that. I hardly ever play at my desk anymore

  • Hell yeah I'm one of the few 2042 defenders. It's a good game now!

  • Yuzu is dead and not getting updates, and it's forks aren't really much more active. It will not be able to run switch 2 games.

    It's totally fine to think the steam deck is a better value (though these will also be going up in price) but if you want to play switch 2 games the steam deck will not be the solution

  • I get its a recency and public vote thing but KCD2 being on here is ... A choice. Not saying it's bad but most influencial? Over GTA? Mario 64? Half life 2? Lol

  • Yeah the pricing is wild. The console is a fine price, and I don't mind the paid upgrades that add content. Other games are getting free upgrades they confirmed later.

    But charging for the welcome tour is madness. And $80 digital for Mario kart is insane. At least dk is $70 digital so like I hope most games aren't $80 but Jesus. And like $70 is a lot too don't get me wrong but that's what it's been the past couple years so I'm not surprised at that number

  • I can't believe it actually happened. In a sizzle real lmao

  • Overall I thought that was fantastic but I'm so confused at no price. No preorder date either

  • No price??????

  • New 3D DK game

  • New from soft what the fuck
