>They really just called it Switch 2
Predictions?
I'm probably too optimistic, but I expect the name and very similar design to bite them in the ass, like with the Wii U.
It will absolutely not sell as well as the switch without another chink-flu and Animal Crossing.
Maybe it will all depend on the games, remember those? What do you think is going to be the "console-seller"? A new 3D bing bing wahoo and walking-sim Zelda?

I didn't get the Switch 2 for the anti-consumer practices such as being able to remotely brick my console for being a bad goy. I hope nintendo crashes and burns by next fiscal quarter for not making the line go up enough but I fear that the normalnigger cattle who aren't paying attention will give them money to survive. Not to mention normalnigger cattle not paying attention is why win 11 is headed towards such a shitty state.

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri - I only wish I'd gone in wholly blind instead of having been spoiled on it.
Deep Rock Galactic sucks, but I'd love to relive the feelings I had when I was first getting into it - there was magic in it, playing a dark cave-crawling game in the dead of night and having my whole desk light up when I shot a flare or repaired a crate.
Rebuild 2 felt fucking magnificent when it was new, especially before you figured out any cheese strats or the exact routes to the extra endings, and I would love to fell that way again - the third was bad enough to be dismissed entirely.
I was going to say the Cuboy games, but it's actually been so long since I played those that I could probably go back and play them with no memory of the jokes.

Bad news, seems like my cat's vomit soldering job didn't last.
LED wouldn't turn on after being plugged in and turned on/off a few times.
I remember the LED staying off for a few months after he vomited on it and then returning in the form of colors of the months (I recall it being purple all the time before that), I think that was caused by it being plugged in during a power outage.

But I really don't feel like leaving it plugged in for months to get that to happen again. It's not jail broken and everything I'm playing is on other devices. I could just use it as a blu-ray player though...

Yeah, 2 orange cats that were the sons of a stray who had 2 females following him. He got both of them pregnant at the same time and as a result our backyard suddenly had 16 kittens one day. We sent the rest to a local no-kill shelter after fostering them for a few weeks. The stray himself wandered off somewhere else, probably fucking more in another neighborhood.

FOnline 2258 – fresh wipe April 1

If you’re tired of overmodded FOnline servers and want something closer to the original 2238 / Reloaded feel, this is it.

2258 sticks to classic gameplay but adds enough new systems to keep things interesting without breaking the core.

– Hardcore difficulty, always
– Not only for nolife PvP players, new players can get in and progress
– Mercs and AI companions
– HP regen during combat (fights feel different)
– Long fights bring more enemies from outside the map
– NPCs actually move, live, and interact instead of standing still
– 100+ original quests and 100+ jobs
– Player-driven economy that actually matters
– Multiple builds, progression paths, events

Actually the real problem is that the 2D Fallout are fundamentally broken dogshit games with bad controls, bad UI, and bad character progression systems.  The awfulness of the bad controls get especially magnified if you try to turn it into a multiplayer experience, but it's not like they weren't fucking shit to begin with.

I think the best combination would be doing a cooperative game, like, for 2-5 players or so, this way you can play with friends, the game is still a offline game that could be player forever, and instead of having hundreds of players simultaneously, you can make small group of people enjoy the game through the years. As an example of this genre, could be something like divinity original sin 2 with several friends, is a coop RPG. Or maybe you can do the Phantasy Star Online approach and have that structure of singleplayer/coop game but with the MMO element for some reason.

Reminds me of a kinda offtopic question in a similar vein, but this is the most relevant thread to ask I guess.

Why is there a sprawling mod scene for F1/2/Tactics that's made a billion TC campaigns, other content mods, and bugfixes built on autistic knowledge of the games and their engines for decades, but NO FULL ENGINE RECREATION.

Every other autism town bicycle game's playerbase like X-Com, HoMM3, Morrowind, RA2, TA, switched away from the retail engine long ago. Even other Interplay RPGs like the much more complex BG & ToEE.

This list shows a half dozen abortive attempts:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_game_engine_recreations
Multiple groups independently created complete games like FoOl, but nobody has bothered with something capable of playing the original games' assets on a modern environment.

So yeah, if I want to play the OGs, I have to slap em in WINE and chainload a heap of .exe patches like it's the '90s.

The same question haunts me even moreso about Minecraft. I'm sure the cumulative effort that's gone into writing and

I disagree, the biggest strength of these games is their world, writing, immersion and mechanics. All four are hurt when an online element is introduced, might as well make the game single player first and foremost but run some sort of online mode on the side if you really care that much. These games are too niche to have a community required to truly take advantage of the concept, Fallout 76 tried and failed, at best you got a nice little PVE session and if you want that, just play Killing Floor or some other online game specifically designed for this sort of thing. 

>>304949
The closest thing I know to what you're talking about is Et Tu project, which ported over Fallout 1 into Fallout 2 engine, which brought over a ton of advancements. Otherwise, I think the games are simply too fragile to be ported over into a brand new engine, best one can hope for is that they will be ported over into either NV or F4 3D engines or maybe something like Unity so we can have a 3D isometric Fallout experience ala Van Buren/ATOM RPG/Wasteland 2 and 3.
>>304949
I may have spoken too soon. Looking more closely at Community Edition, its ports might be a lot closer to playability than when last I checked, even if the last Git commit is from over a year ago.

Even if a playthrough shows that to be the case, LOL that a brute force decompile was even necessary for such a thoroughly modded game.

Ever wanted to play a dating sim with Mario Party minigames?
This PS1 arcade port got you covered.
I did a playthrough last night with Rin and it was quite fun.
I love finding fun games like this. Did you know there's a proper dating sim Mario Party game on the N64 called Getter Love!!: Cho Renai Party Game Tanjou? The only dating sim on the console.
Had a harder time playing that one, but essentially, you aim for a girl and try to woe her before anyone else woes their girl.
Would make for a good game for a game night with your friends haha...

Also, related to the thread, I was considering getting a Saturn alongside a Saroo, because I like getting consoles with flashcarts, but are there games on the Saturn beyond arcade ports and Saturn Bomberman?

Radeon Software for Linux 25.20.3 Released - "Exclusively Open-Source" With RADV

>With the great upstream support for AMD Radeon graphics in the Linux kernel and Mesa, most desktop users / gamers / enthusiasts are best off just using the latest code shipped by their distributions or via the enthusiast-supported third-party archives/repositories. But for those on older enterprise Linux distributions, Radeon Software for Linux 25.20.3 was recently released for shipping that packaged AMD Linux graphics driver stack. This 25.20 series is the big one where they are now officially supporting the Mesa RADV Vulkan driver in place of their own former Vulkan Linux driver. 
>Back in May was the announcement from AMD that they would be dropping their proprietary OpenGL and Vulkan drivers on Linux in favor of using the OpenGL and Vulkan drivers shipped by Mesa. They said that change-over would happen for the Radeon Software for Linux 25.20 release and now it's publicly available with the v25.20.3 build.

A realization I got during the ongoing public death spiral of the necrophiliac rape new installment.

Nu-Bungie fans often speak of "great Bungie gunplay", how "Bungie makes shooting feel perfect", or that "the core FPS play in Bungie games is best in class". What is this actually referring to?

I always assumed it was what I noticed playing the Mac Halo port and comparing it to otherwise similar games of the era, like cancels on animations, dedicated buttons for all actions instead of mode-switching, weapon and enemy balance, or general polish on designs and animations.

Everybody knows Halo introduced a lot of staple console casualizations, unadvertised invisible mandatory auto-aim foremost among them, and at the time I assumed residual "bullet magnetism" Gearbox ported to M&KB was simply minor unintentional sloppiness. But recently learning more about Bungie's behavior in years since:
<Even on gaypad, the ubiquity of escalating auto-aim that made Bungie seem less conspicuous from 6th-gen has tailed off since late 8th-gen, with major titles like OW, R6:S, & Fortnite greatly reducing it. Destiny 1/2 and new Halo titles having continuously more aggressive auto-aim is unusual.

If Subscribe Star now applies the same gay rules they are doomed, as nobody would pick them over Patreon since their side is just as gay.

I miss when the idea of thief was that garret had absolutely no interest in getting involved with whatever was happening in the city.
He just wants to make as much money as he can using the chaos to loot both sides of the conflict and make a profit from the events.
His rules were pragmatic:
- rob only the rich and take only what they won't miss.
- don't kill anyone or cause any serious harm to anybody.
Etc.
These seemed moral but were purely practical, he knew he was tolerated only because he a thief instead of a murderer and wasn't a serious enough problem that he needed to be addressed by those who could fuck him up and would if he stepped too much out of line.

>Is the London in Fallout London more civilized than our timeline's London?
You can shoot rapist shitskins back if they come at you without getting arrested, so definitely more civilized than real Britain. That said, it is concerning that Fallout London is so Fallout 4 brained that you can't walk 2 blocks down the street without encountering a hooligan gang. Even major cities(that includes the capital) have roving gangs of raiders, ala Freeside in New Vegas except much, much worse. It's ridiculous, altho I imagine real Britain is only marginally better at this point.

Not really relevant to anything, but since I'm on the topic, I killed a Legendary Deathclaw with that stupid paddle ball weapon I was talking about and I laughed so hard. The Fallout 4 deathclaws are definitely nothing more than playful pussycats compared to the New Vegas variants.
