If/when I can afford to upgrade - big if - I’m considering a foldable just to play rhythm games on, because some games I’ve tried feel like they aren’t designed for just thumbs and want a bigger screen. I dunno what else I’d use it for, but I see at least one niche use case for this gimmick and it happens to be a niche I’d use.

There’s going to be a modding API just like the original, so if he’s not in the base game someone can always port him in.

Combat is supposed to be the core gameplay loop. If you feel like that’s an unwanted interruption, I think there’s a deeper problem where the game has left you feeling like you don’t want to play its core loop.

It sounds like you’ve had bad experiences with games that just didn’t make their systems engaging enough to not feel repetitive. That was true of some older titles, but modern turn-based RPGs have learned a lot since then.

CrossCode - Console Release Date Trailer

One of my favorite tracks on the OST, and I love how they’ve synced all the cuts to the music. It’s a fantastic sizzle reel showing off little bits and pieces of everything that’s cool in this game.

I absolutely do not want Windows.

An Android device doesn’t run my Steam library.

I’m aware of Portmaster, but that’s a manual process that is only possible for certain engines. Whereas SteamOS can just run all my games.

What are you hoping to get from SteamOS that you aren’t able to get from any other Linux distro?

Hi. I’m the guy that wants a low-spec model that fits in my pocket. I exist. Just gimme something that can run my favorite 2D indie games and I’m happy.

I bought a Miyoo Mini Plus last year and ended up loving it far more than my Deck, which is actually just gathering dust still. And now I dream of seeing SteamOS in that size.

But nothing you’re describing will fit in that kind of form factor. So if you want to enforce minimum specs, you’re really telling me I can’t have my dream handheld.

I bought a Miyoo Mini Plus last year, just an impulse buy because it was on sale dirt cheap. Ended up liking it so much I wish I’d bought a more expensive model with analog sticks.

Meanwhile, my Deck gathers dust because it’s just too bulky too fill the void left behind by the GBC/GBA/DS I grew up on.

First manufacturer to get SteamOS running on a form factor that fits in my pocket gets my entire bank account. Doesn’t have to be beefy, just needs to run all my favorite 2D indie games.

I definitely feel like my tastes have narrowed with age. Or maybe it’s just that I’ve found a few games to really really fall in love with, and not much else pulls my attention away from grinding those top favorites.

When I was a kid, I could only get a new game every few months or so, so I kind of had to make the most of each one. Now I’ve got several hundred games in my Steam library, and more than half of are unplayed, because they don’t grab me enough to boot them up over playing another ranked online set of riichi mahjong today.

You don’t see how it’s rude to pipe in just to shit on a game for costing money? You could easily just… not.

You were the one who replied to me just to rudely dismiss my choice of games.

A few other names have been discovered that ChatGPT also will not output, and none of them seem to be anyone special.

I think the most plausible explanation is that these individuals filed a Right to be Forgotten request, and rather than actually scrubbing any data, OpenAI’s kludge was to simply have the frontend throw an error any time the LLM would output a forbidden name. I doubt this is anything happening within the LLM, just a filter on its output.

It really depends on what games you play. Some of my favorite games are so niche that ‘matchmaking’ simply consists of Discord pings. The upside of that is that you will get a very close-knit community out of it.

It goes for both of you. It’s honestly just a pretty rude unsolicited reply.

Anything 2D should run on a toaster.

I’m legally obligated to shill CrossCode as the greatest RPG ever made.

Honestly, why even reply just to announce that you don’t wanna play a game? Don’t care, didn’t ask.

$20/year ain’t nearly as bad as PSN or XBL.
