You're actually so fucking cool

I switched my secondary machine to Linux but Win11 IoT LTSC on desktop isn't a bad option. With Start11 it feels exactly the same

It looks like it's still missing part of the bloom effect, but much improved. SA has such a nice atmosphere on PS2, it reminds me of what real-life LA used to look like to child me

Please start pushing Exporatory/Explore/Exploration Action as a more accurate translation of Tansaku Action, or my preferred contraction of it, Explaction because I'm a crazy person but I honestly think it could take off if enough people use it

Dan's love for Akiha needs to be studied

Essentially yeah, they did. In japan the genre is just known as "ADV", they were originally a simplified take on Sierra-type games where instead of typing out your commands, you picked words from a list. Eventually that gave way to the occasional list of a few sentence choices that we see today

If he doesn't do it in the movie, I'm pretty sure he does it in the book

Are these images of a mockup, or is that actually playable?

There's no anomaly here. People, globally, volunteer their time to powerful public goods the moment they're not actively terrified that they'll lose their home, their food, and their freedom. Which means that capitalism requires us all to live in fear, always - because it can't compete with free.

but offbrand how will I afford your indie games if I'm unemployed??

Same, I felt like it was trying too hard to be cryptic. I watched it soon after Eva and I felt Eva did a lot better at making me interested in the world and story while still having huge mysteries and generally being confusing in a good way. Lain had a bunch of shit happening and I just didn't care

It's really frustrating to see YouTube recommend a video on a topic I've covered in the past, only for me to watch it to see what new the video brings to the table, but it's just an unsourced recap of the quotes I got in interviews. Cite your sources, folks.

Woah it's the old DS layout! Were the graphics the same as the HD versions, or were they DS-quality?

If game publishers, console manufacturers and online resellers are able to frick with us, it's only fair we return the favour
Use a VPN, circumvent DRM, share your copies of games with others, buy from indie devs that you know won't screw you over
Whatever it takes to smack the industry in the face

Why did you do this to yourself

Switch games being small is basically an unintended side effect of bigger cartridge sizes being more expensive. On one hand, yay, but on the other hand you get Square Enix's cloud bullshit

Literally different angles, you were standing next to each other. What a small world

damn it

I suddenly want to make a 3x3

I changed my mind

For whatever reason, I've just never had a problem with this. I've been platform-agnostic/a PC gamer for long enough that I can just mentally associate whatever console I'm playing with the right control scheme

Ok, now emulate each of those consoles with the same controller on PC lol

Piracy is good anyway

Are they trying to clear their back-catalog or something?

Also, my current game project: Vikings on Trampolines. Its a co-op/versus brawler where you're vikings, you fight on trampolines, and balloons are sentient and evil.

So many hololive fans in the Team Tomodachi video comments who didn't know about the song before the Advent cover... goes to show how unplugged you can be from an aspect of pop culture you don't regularly partake in because that song was EVERYWHERE on yt when it came out

A: I'm curious how much similarity there is between trans culture in the West and in China. I'm sure there are differences, but it would be interesting to see what similarities there are! :3 B: 中国 mtf 刻板印象就是 rust + archlinux

Because of the TikTok ban, a friend of mine has been talking to a trans girl from Shanghai. She asked what stereotypes exist about trans people in china:

"rust + archlinux"

They keep telling me this isn't Tousaka Rin and I don't believe them
