• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Question - Retro Handhelds⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Got me an Anbernic RGXX35 SP or whatever it’s called. The foldy gameboy. $70, came with an SD card with tons of games on it, only a few were good though. I got another SD card, threw MUOS on it, and grabbed the ROMs of the games I wanted. AI was actually fairly useful in discovering new titles that corresponded to PC games I liked (ex XCOM > Advance Wars). The system runs PS1 games easily. It’s been cool digging into older titles, as I didn’t play on handhelds/consoles much as a kid (born PC gamer). I think it should be priced closer to $50, but whatever. I get an occasional ooh and aah from nostalgic folks and it’s fun to show off. The main issues I have is that the standby feels more like a shutdown and it’s hard to quickly resume play if you have to close it, so it feels like more of a sit down and play console than a quick session like a phone provides; it’s good for places where you have to wait a while. Also the clicky buttons- I love the sound and feel but I get self conscious playing in a public space where there’s not enough noise to cover the sound. I like the idea of the Ayn Thor or whatever the system is called that is kind of like a retro steam deck that can play PC games but I’m not dropping 400+ atm on a system I won’t use as much as my PC probably. The SP was a great semi-low investment to dip my toes into the retro realm and I don’t regret it.

  Get thee a kitchen scraper, helps get a lot of gunk off without using the sponge or your fingernails.

  Winhance can help you delete Copilot and other MSlop that may not be completely accessible via add/remove programs.

  Grabbed one recently. Put muOS on it and haven’t had any major issues besides an occasional volume glitch. Cool little system, cheap-ish intro to retro games for me.

  Thanks for sharing. I recently got an Anbernic device and have been weirdly excited about it despite not playing too much. Trying to find more games that I enjoy from that time.

  Me too, but not looking forward to the price, and probably won’t wind up getting one 😔

  It’s the story of how McDonalds became big. Think it’s called The Founders or something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I buy a Switch 2 despite owning an OLED?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This comment is pretty much the debate I had recently on this. Seems like the 2 will be able to handle some upcoming chunkier games/ports. Prices are probably gonna keep going up due to the data center takeover, so now is a good time to make a decision.

  No, iirc the guy near the phones is the father of the kid that the guy in red raped. Spoiler: dad decks the chomo, who is being escorted to trial

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Truth⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of good YouTube and other resources on how to do this. Joshua Weissman and Jeremy Ethier have some good starter videos. I think Bobby Parrish has some series on cheap and healthy options as well as an app. It is doable it just takes a little bit of research and planning.

  Fun take but considering how they treat their fans I wouldn’t give them that award.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Single player, open world, fantasy, RPG games⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If Crimson Desert is akin to a modern Skyrim, Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon would be akin to a modern Oblivion. Very unique quests and characters. You do have somewhat of a main quest requirement but it’s not required that you do it first or all at once.
