Hey y'all! Was camping and without service so late thread this week. What have y'all been playing?

Basically I would prefer not to buy a pixel, but if graphene is that much better than the other OS's I would consider it

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 23 points 1 week ago (13 children)

Approaching the point where I need a new phone. Curious what would be better. A fairphone 6 with calyx or /e/ os. Or a new pixel with graphene. I've heard graphene is the best but the fairphone is very tempting

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 6 points 1 week ago

Yeah I think that is likely a necessary next step

Just absolutely disgusting. Stock reaches an all time high on Tuesday ofc. Jeez it sure is great we started consolidating the industry under one umbrella! But it was worth it for ThE bEsT dEaL iN gAmInG. Got muh cod on game pass so yayyyyyy.

Capitalism needs to end yesterday. We're so cooked

 

What have y'all been playing? I've been playing the shit out of death stranding 2. Really really good. It's a no brainer if you liked the first. If you didn't, you may like this one as it has a lot of qol and combat improvements this time round but it still is death stranding at its core

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 6 points 2 weeks ago

I'm enjoying it! Long puppy is def my favorite so far. I was really excited for Shadow gate and while it is a very cool project idk if the game is really for me

What have you been playing?

I've been playing a lot of Mario and Luigi Brothership. It's pretty ok! Def not like an amazing game but I don't think it's the 4/10 IGN gave it

Rumors say there is a proper "next gen" version coming so probably wouldn't hurt to wait a bit. Games not going anywhere :)

~~hollow knight silksong~~

  • Hollow Knight
  • Islets
  • Ender lilies
  • Ori and the will of the wisps (don't love blind forest personally)
  • Blasphemous 1 and 2
  • Pretty much all the 2d metroids, especially Dread
  • Guacamelee 1 and 2
  • The messenger kinda
  • Steamworld dig 2
  • Animal Well

Oh and what I like about them. Exploration is 90% of a good metroidvania for me. Unlocking abilities and finding secrets in old locations is just my favorite gameplay loop. I don't tend to love super linear metroidvanias a-la Metroid fusion, though it's still a good game. But exploration usually can't be all of it. Combat if it's there should be decent at best, puzzles are always good. But really if exploration isn't there just right I probably won't love it. Also most of these I play on steam deck / PC. Except metroid

Just so devastated. Just ranted at my parents for still supporting the nyt after all this shit. Like it's these media groups that are responsible for this. They platform the arguments directly used in the supreme Court case. Im just so sick of mainstream legacy media both sidesing every fucking issue. They are going to lead us to our downfall. They move the Overton window. Like yeah I know the supreme Court is conservative whatever what I said isn't wrong. The NYT are partially culpable here. Fuck me there goes my week / month / year whatever. Can't take this news rn

 

Late thread sorry!

I've been playing switch 2 still as well as season 2 of playdate. Been really enjoying it so far! Favorite game has probably been long puppy. Really cute and clever game

 

What have you all been playing?

I've been playing switch 2 as I was able to secure one at launch. Mario kart is pretty phenomenal. That being said I do think $80 is too steep for it.

Also finally finished Zelda echoes of wisdom. Great game! The switch 2 overall feels really nice. Very premium, screen is gorgeous. Pretty happy with it

 

Happy June! Whatcha all been playing? I've been continuing Talos principle 2, as well as playing the original rhythm heaven game. It's a good time! I have better rhythm than I thought lol
