This makes me more confident that their next hardware release will be a standalone/PC hybrid VR headset to compete with the quest 2/3.

Interestingly enough, even on PS4 GoT had near instantaneous loading times. In an interview it was due to their focus on visual style. Most biomes are composed of singular plant types to get the vibrant uni-color look they were going for. The result was incredible loading times. I played the first half an PS4 then waited for the PS5 upgrade 60fps patch before I finished. So goooood!

Rumor is it’s GoT2. I think there were some job listings

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,

I think a lot of PS Studios have been branching into 2 pronged studios. So they might have a team for GoT2 and then another for something new.

Engineering is a branch of Science. Specifically, Engineering is applied science. For example, scientists discovered that microwaves existed. Engineers made them heat up your food. How did we make safer and better microwaves appliances? Engineers applied the scientific method and iterated on the design and performed tests.

To say engineering is separate from the science is incorrect.

The sources on wikipedia say it was Percy Spencer, an American self-taught engineer. He noticed a Mr. Goodbar candy bar he had in his pocket started to melt from microwaves from an active radar set he was working on. The first food deliberately cooked was popcorn, and the second was an egg, which exploded.

Here are the direct sources: web.archive.org/web/…/history.htmlwww.youtube.com/watch?v=4h1ESUz2H3E

If you have a link to the hamster experiment I would love to read more. I might dive into a microwave research hole today! lol

Very cool! I’ll check it out! Thanks

I will say that I am chapter 5 now (of 7), and the game is always throwing new things at you. New mechanics, new story beats, twists on gameplay, boss battles, etc. It has stayed very fresh for me. I wouldn’t say it is overwhelming either. It starts a bit slow where you think, “ok it’s just a fishing, sushi restaurant management sim”, but this is far from all that the game offers. I am loving it.

I’m at chapter 5 (of 7) and Steam is showing 15.6 hours (and 18/43 achievements if you are into achievements, which I am not.). I am still loving it.

I played a lot of it the last few days, so I am taking a little break to play something else. I need a few more restaurant days to make money to upgrade my suit to explore deeper to progress the main story quest. I blew all my cash training the best restaurant staff so that my kitchen is completely automated though.

[Discussion] With the recent rumors of a possible hardware refresh, what are your most hoped for changes in an updated Steam Deck?

In the leaked info, we know that Valve has an upcoming device that will use the same APU as the current Steam Deck. We don’t know if this will be a new VR headset or a Steam Deck hardware refresh. Even though using the same APU means there won’t be a performance increase, there could be various other improvements in an...

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,

My guess is this will be a hybrid VR headset that can play games standalone a la the quest, as well as via PC via tether or wireless.

I don’t really want a steam deck refresh if there is no performance improvement tbh.

That being said, 8"+ 1080p HDR screen with more nits would be nice. Maybe some dual stage/adaptive triggers.

Small fixes. No FSR 2.0 yet.

Right. Where are the corresponding articles about human drivers that have blocked ambulances due to ineptitude? I’m sure we won’t find them, but I’m sure it happens more often than we think.

This is just like reporting of Tesla crashes and fires by the media. It makes it seem like a big deal, but only because regular vehicle crashes and explosions are so frequent they just don’t get reported. I’ve personally seen several cars on fire on the side of the road, and just a few weeks ago saw a car rollover crash on the highway. None of these ever made the local news.

With only one report so far, the completionist time on howlongtobeat.com puts it around 26.5 hours.

Adding moonlight support for PC streaming would be cool. And for $100 I would buy this just for shits.

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,
@CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world avatar

If this was PS5/PS4 streaming but with the ability to play PS3/2/1 games locally, it would kill for $200. And they wouldn’t fracture the PS5 development base, which they are obviously afraid of doing.

Hell, even some modern indie games that don’t use the full PS5 horsepower could have potentially make a PSPortal version for on-the-go gaming.

This just rose to the top of my hype list. What a cool vibe

How does this handle cases where no subscribers from an instance have subscribed to an external community yet? Other migration tools I have used require these to be added manually. Does yours automate this process?

Edit: any plans to add to FDroid?

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,
@CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world avatar

Maybe grouping these communities into a list and then linking to them manually for users to click though and sub would be a good idea.

I really only see this being good for kids or if you are packing seriously light and want a couple extra controllers for the strangers on the plane next to you.

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,
@CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world avatar

Why are the back buttons on the right controller aligned horizontally while the left controller back buttons are aligned vertically?

Also there are two side bottoms shown as well. I’d love to see a demo of this in action.

That’s the thing. Ganefreak needs to up the bar because eventually if they ignore feedback long enough they will be hit with a disappointing release that doesnt sell gangbusters. At that point the IP will be given to a new studio and Ganefreak will be out of work and have a shit portfolio to get new work. These games sell because they are Pokemon games. Without the IP, Ganefreak will be up shits creek

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,
@CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world avatar

That’s right…I forgot about that. Do you know the share percentage?

This makes me want to play a narrative pokemon game in a world where the pokemon aren’t real, but you collect pokemon cards, battle friends in your neighborhood and in school, and where the battles are visualized like in this short. I think this could be a really interesting and fresh take on the genre.

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,
@CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world avatar

Pretty much lol

CosmicSploogeDrizzle,
@CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world avatar

It has been awhile but I think if you get a game over you have to start the current world over again. You don’t go back to 1-1. Each castle is also a save point. And you get unlimited game overs.

Yeah, not trying to grind much these days. And as far as turn based…I’m going to be having that itch scratched by BG3 soon enough.

For Chiaki, could we add a link specifically to Chiaki4Deck? Last I checked Chiaki was in maintenance mode and wasn’t accepting edits to fix issues with trackpad swipes and some other deck specific improvements. Someone from the community forked Chiaki and made chiaki4deck, available on the discover store to remedy these issues.

Awesome! Thanks!
