I hid away from the truth because it is a truth I wanted

I feel like one of the beakers is supposed to be blown up but I can’t not see goth beaker

I saw this game on the store page, looked interesting from what I saw. It’s a very far departure from what I normally play (no man’s sky, helldivers, games like that) but it looked interesting and I have it wishlisted

I was late to planetside starting in 2018, then a haitus and then playing the shit out of it from 2020-24

Getting a level 80 asp 2 NSO (I’m not insane I’m not insane)

But for me I suck at the game, drift my pancake dervish over a lib and perfect swing around keeping my Gub trained in him at all time

A pooping partner yay

This ain’t no Zorsith, it’s the god damn Loch Ness monster

PREGANANT

Whoever’s spreading misinformation should probably tell Mr. information

Also OP good meme

Thanks! I think I’ll get a windows PC then install Linux on this current laptop then use it as a test computer, unless i get some info from this thread that decisively swings my opinion one way or the other, but thanks for the info

I’m not unhappy with microsoft, i just don’t really care, as long as all my games and programs work. As another comment said I might install linux on my current gaming laptop once I get a new desktop and see how that goes

As for the games I have a steam deck and all my games work out of the box, is that indicative of how thing would work out on linux?

I have my current gaming laptop, maybe I’ll install linux on it once I get a new PC and see how that goes

I agree with you in that people are missing out but I’m of the mind that if that’s how they want to play the game, let them. Back to dead cells, there’s also a mechanic called aspects where the game will warn you that achievements are disabled and it may make the game too easy (maybe idr if actually tells you or just implies it). So they partially or completly remove challenge. But some people don’t want to challenge themselves they just want to nuke rooms. And I’ve done that few times and being an unstoppable force of nature via abilities can be fun

Another example is settlements with my buddy in no man’s sky. Yes he’s missing out on game content such as all building and timers wand watching the settlement grow. But he just doesn’t find that fun but rather building intricate bases and structures

Where you say people can ruin the challenge by making it too easy 1000% agree. In dead cells nothings changing me from setting that one extra life I get, to unlimited, effectively bashing my head against a level or boss till I clear, leaving death with no consequence and as such, making it so I don’t have to git gud. My comfort zone is difficult, but a little room for error

As for the part of easy mode or just exploring is like behind the scenes content or art books, I’m gonna have to disagree. Maybe I’m taking that to literally or missing something but I’d consider those supplemental to the original media. Like I don’t need to see a behind the scenes video to enjoy Skyrim, maybe I’ll pay more active attention to level design or how things are place to draw attention. But I can still fully enjoy the city of Whiterun without knowing the city was designed to route you through the shopping district, through the temple and up the castle.

I see it more as a different approach or focus. People who value exploration want that to be the focus rather than having a super tough fight. Some people want both, where that super tough fight is part of the journey see what’s across that clearing over there

TLDR, it’s about finding that sweet spot between challenging and comfortable people ARE missing content but it’s a trade off for what they find enjoyable

Edit: this kinda turned into a rant, hopefully it makes sense

Dead cells has something called assist mode. Doesn’t disable achievements or anything. Personally I use it as a second chance, the only setting I’ve touched is lives. Normally in the game you die, get sent back the start. With assist mode you can respawn (either at the level start or door you crossed). I usually have it on one life extra to avoid the “that was so bullshit” deaths but still keep death an actual consequence

It also has some stuff like bigger parry windows, lower enemy health and damage.

IMO it’s great because people can make the game as causal and forgiving as you want

I can jump over lazy dog too, it’s not that hard especially if they’re sleeping

In one of my earlier designs use the farming walls to close of the door ways like the frieghter interior wall

My current design has a Y shaped interior, with the base being the cockpit and some of the engines at the tip of the two points. There’s also a -1 floor at the base of the Y shape

After that I added reactors and engines then built cosmetics around it

I hoped on lemmy to look up some news since I saw the steam artwork changed and here was this post at the top

Haven’t read the notes yet on what we get but I’m excited

Rock urp and urp stoooone urraaap

Ah, my guess would be power (not wearing a seatbelt I guess) but at the cost of it being very dangerous

Or completing a set of something to gain power

Not even a mention of the duck!
