As much as I love mass effect (and I do love it very much), I find it hard to recommend it right now because of the launcher requirements. There is a guide on the community page for bypassing the pop up asking you to download the EA launcher, and it did work for me the first time, but after shutting down my system and booting it up later to play again it stopped working for some reason. Might be a me problem I’m not sure. But keep in mind that it will try its best to get you to download their stupid app.

Huh, that looks pretty neat. I hadn’t heard of it before but it’s got a free demo so I’ve added it. I’ll try it out sometime soon.

How are you liking navidrome? I’ve been using Jellyfin for everything, using the finamp app for music, and it’s been pretty good. I’ve heard good things about navidrome but I already had Jellyfin set up on my server so I just stuck with it for music too. I don’t have much music on there yet though so I’d consider moving over to navidrome if it was a considerable improvement. I did try to get it set up a few weeks back but couldn’t get it right away and got busy afterwards.

That sounds great actually. I’ll definitely be looking into this. Thanks.

What changes does the mod make? I’d be interested in checking it out.

We need a name for lemmy users running arch on their pc that they’re using to watch stuff on their Jellyfin server

Yeah, that’s fair.

I love the music for the whole modern Hitman trilogy. Great tracks.

I’m surprised it took this many comments to mention a Halo game.
- Comment on What's your favourite menu music in a game? 1 week ago:
The whole Elder Scrolls series has awesome main menu music but I think Morrowind is probably my favourite of the bunch. But they’re all great.
- Comment on What's your favourite menu music in a game? 1 week ago:
Sekiro is also awesome. But yeah I agree Elden Ring is probably number two.
- Comment on What's your favourite menu music in a game? 1 week ago:
The galaxy map theme from the Mass Effect series is one of my favourite tunes in a sci-fi game. I love the chill atmosphere as you select your destination, and hearing it outside the game always makes me want to revisit the series.
- Comment on What's your favourite menu music in a game? 1 week ago:
The main menu theme for Dark Souls III is probably my favourite main menu theme ever. It perfectly encapsulates the tone of the game in my opinion and I always have to listen to it before starting up the game.

Funny, that scene is what makes it one of my all-time favourite movies. I rewatch it sometimes just for that scene.

I might pick up the humble bundle. I love Souls games, I didn’t realize they had a soulslike bundle on the go.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 1 week ago:
For a second I thought it was a game where you fight against LLMs and thought that was a really cool premise.
I get what you mean now. Still looks like an interesting game though.

They were supposed to open for Iron Maiden when I saw them last year but had equipment issues or something and couldn’t play :( I was looking forward to seeing them. Their music is sick.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
They’re both fantastic games. I can’t decide which I like more, they’re both very high up on my list of all-time favourite games.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Oh nice. I’ve been meaning to play it for a while now, so now I’ve got a good reason to check it out. It’ll move up on the queue in my backlog I suppose.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Oh maybe. I don’t remember the criticism now, just that there was a lot of it.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I’ve heard the same thing, and likewise have been tempted to try it. There is a demo on steam so I suppose I could try it out for free and see what I think. But my backlog is long enough as is, I don’t need more reason to increase that.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Enjoy. It’s a really fun game. I won’t spoil anything but I really enjoyed the last little bit of the game. I haven’t played the sequel but I heard it wasn’t nearly as good. I do own it in my backlog but I haven’t tried it.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been thinking of that game a lot recently. Have you played it before?
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah there’s a fast forward button. RetroArch isn’t an emulator as such, or at least not in the same way others are, I don’t quite understand how it all works but you choose your emulator core and different cores have different settings. So if you don’t like the FF of one core, just change your core. I’m not sure it saves carry over when changing cores so maybe experiment when core settings before making any progress in the game.
I’ve been using melonDS for SoulSilver and it’s been great, FF is probably 2x speed on that one. It might be adjustable, I’m not sure. When I was playing Crystal the FF was probably closer to 10x speed, it was a bit much. But there’s lots of choices for cores so you can play around with it and see what you like.
- Comment on Why is it called linux phone? 2 weeks ago:
iOS just got a fairly major overhaul to its UI too. Liquid Glass, they’re calling it. Screenshots don’t really look great but using it since yesterday, I actually prefer it. Feels a little retro-futuristic. Buttons have clearly defined edges again, everything is now transparent, and it has the same sort of distortion you’d get with those glass blocks that used to be popular in swimming pools and such (at least around here, not sure if that was universal). Probably my favourite look of iOS actually. That might be a super unpopular opinion, I’m not sure. I haven’t kept up on community opinions of iOS in a long time.
