- Thanks to its all-encompassing Randomizer mod, Deus Ex has gotten a festive Halloween update with game modes and modifiers to turn it into a survival horror gamewww.pcgamer.com ↗Submitted 1 month ago to gaming@lemmy.zip | 0 comments
- Comment on Shower thought, traversal in open world games have turned from game mechanics to loading screens 1 month ago:
Yeah anyone who thinks 3D games without loading screens are only possible on SSDs needs to go back and play Dungeon Siege or Asheron’s Call. GTA3 mostly didn’t have loading screens either. The Witcher 3 wasn’t even that long ago and it didn’t need loading screens on HDDs. (I guess traveling between the main big areas did, but I guess that’s more because they didn’t have an animation of Geralt taking a boat or something, everything else streamed fine)
- Comment on Deus Ex Randomizer v3.2 Happy Halloween! 2 months ago:
Turns out the lighting was a bit dark for some people, and since during October the cosmetics affect the regular randomizer modes too, we will be releasing a hotfix soon. For now remember that you can use the flashlight without any energy cost, and you can also increase the Brightness Boost settings in the Rando->Visuals menu.

I feel like internet users have become so lazy and stubborn. I’m pretty sure it used to be easier to get people to move to new things like new forums, Xfire, Ventrillo

yea tlnet is perfect, thank you! subscribed
- Comment on Follow RSS feeds from Lemmy 2 months ago:
TL.net would be great for esports news tl.net/rss/news.xml
if
tl
is too short for a community name, maybe tl_net or teamliquid_net or something like that - Comment on Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego? - NNRG Week 56 2 months ago:
my favorite was Where In Space, great music too
- Comment on Lemmy wouldn't really takeoff to replace Reddit until it's content is search indexable 2 months ago:
That’s a cool idea. There have been somewhat related discussions, but I can’t find any exactly like that. Maybe you should file an issue on GitHub for them?

I haven’t used Jerboa in a while, but I know Boost supports almost all of the search features

what objection? www.google.com/search?q=Lemmy+wouldn’t+really+tak…
- Comment on Lemmy wouldn't really takeoff to replace Reddit until it's content is search indexable 2 months ago:
Like, not being able to search for specific issues, people, or any other topic already posted even within your own instance is my biggest issue with Lemmy not being a sufficient replacement.
The search page does allow all of this.
You can filter by type (post, user, community, etc), Local/All/Subscribed, searching within a community, choosing a sort option or restricting to past year/month/week… I think it’s much better than Reddit’s search.
- Comment on Lemmy wouldn't really takeoff to replace Reddit until it's content is search indexable 2 months ago:
I don’t think this is true, Lemmy is already using
rel=“canonical”
which should be telling Google what the real URL is, like here on programming.dev I see this in the page source<link data-inferno-helmet=“true” rel=“canonical” href=“https://lemmy.world/post/19493729”>
which is why the Google results for this search don’t show a million different instances mirroring it
- Comment on Lemmy wouldn't really takeoff to replace Reddit until it's content is search indexable 2 months ago:
but Lemmy already does show up on Google results
- Comment on Video Games - weekly active communities thread 2 months ago:
Consolidating is hard because I’m a bit of a hoarder so I can’t stand to unsubscribe from any of them lol. I don’t mind the duplicate posts so much. But maybe someone can suggest which of those communities can be skipped in favor of others.
- Comment on Video Games - weekly active communities thread 2 months ago:
There are so many communities for games (too many…) I’ll try to stick with the most active ones that haven’t been mentioned yet

- !pcgaming@lemmy.ca (this one actually has too many posts lol, sort by Active or New Comments or something)

I was so confused when I heard about lemmy-ui-leptos, it really sounds like a waste of time to me 🤷♂️
I’m sure everyone has a different opinion, but I think the most important new feature should be the plugin system. It seems like the only way to scale up the number of contributors and support a variety of languages.

I also like the New Comments sort (forums style), I have a widget on my phone’s home screen showing Subscribed - New Comments

Scaled is amazing for the Subscribed feed, because I’m (obviously) interested in the small communities that I’m subscribed to. But it’s not quite the same when browsing All or Local. Usually I do stick to Subscribed though.

I wonder if there would be enough data on archive.org to rebuild your community?
you can probably find a mirror of the community on one of the big Lemmy instances

They may as well just use phpbb at this point.
idk I think even with federation fully disabled, Lemmy is still better than phpbb
- Comment on It's honestly good advice, but I much prefer original hardware when possible. 3 months ago:
Recompilations and reverse engineered games are actually not emulation, it’s a port. But yeah they’re amazing and almost always the best way to play a game when available. See !source_ports@lemmy.sdf.org and !opensourcegames@lemmy.ml
- Comment on It's honestly good advice, but I much prefer original hardware when possible. 3 months ago:
Sure. You can fix frame rate drops, play with any controller you want, easier to play with mods, save states, speedup when replaying a game, easier to record video or stream. If you’re playing a 3d game you can run in higher resolution with better anti aliasing. For a 2d game sometimes one of the upscaling filters will look good. You can use CRT filter if you want and you don’t have a CRT TV. You could do it on Steam Deck and cloud sync your saves with your PC.
