Gaming industry could have went a whole other direction the aftermath of Pac-Man, i can clearly see that fork in the road, where we could have had less violent games, targeting all humans, i mean, the whole world could've gone in the other direction. Pac-man, as an icon of the future that never was.

Gods, first time playing Pac-Man since... probably never but i might have played it as a kid on NES clone, MIGHT. Still, its an incredible game and its just as incredible to think how many gamers have not experienced it yet! Eating and escaping is just as as fun as shooting things, if not more!

lower difficutly because of easy 60fps aiming feels kinda of balanced by switch's short and a bit clunky sticks, the visuals are not bleeding from my eyes bad like on big consoles, they are just kinda bad also im a bum and never played gc original only 360 ver in 480p - i can reccomend that!

resident evil 4 suddenly goes so hard, the switch version is shamefully bad, 60fps hd texture crap but its not as bad as ps4, i think the base is gc because cutscenes are real time but oh capcom, modern re4 feels like Frankenstein monster: parts from diffirent bodies stitched together, the horror

I got myself Switch OLED and i love ittt. The future of AAA gaming is def portable because TV/PC gaming is too cumbersome and sparse, TV&console setup is the new stereo rack: smth you see in a house that wasn't updated since the 80s, or maybe smth rich and frivolous still buy for some reason.

Yes, Remedy just wasn't the same for me after they started doing their MCU-esque stuff, fortunately the game just before it was their best work imo and it still lives in my heart <3

Migrant chat was gloating about drone attacks on RU soil, writing shit like "When will those who stayed ever get it?" Think I just bluescreened them all by saying the USA also got two buildings mowed down with way bigger planes as consequences for their genocidal shenanigans and they never "got it".

Please roll back your app redesign, new design has less features and the navigation is not intuitive and clunky. The old app's UI was miles better, please bring it back.

I've just finished Faith of Beasts, and I highly recommend Mercy of Gods/Faith of Beasts. Some passages will stick with me forever. It is sad to realize there is a very high chance I may not live long enough to read the third book. Planning to kms soon due to coming homelessness, unemployability.

You literally have the ability to get rid of cheaters. And I don't know of any PC game that managed to "solve" the cheater problem completely. And this problem will not be solved by Bungie in a game that sold 10 times below their expectations.

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
It's funny that Marathon streamers complain so much about cheaters in ranked, yet they can buy consoles, turn off crossplay with PC, and enjoy the game without any cheaters. They can afford it, many of them already use gamepads, soooo, what the hell?

I know it's just greed in me speaking; it is damn fun to have limited "play coins" to get your fix, very arcade, lol. I love that. I think it's the number 1 reason why this game is addicting for those who can't stop playing it, like me, yeah, lol.

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 06/04/2026
I see your point. It would be fun, yeah. I'm enjoying PvP a lot myself, so much that I want them to have some kind of respawn-based game mode where gear fear is less of a factor, buuut...

Yeah, it is the biggest problem of any team-based game. It's demoralizing playing as much as someone you know, but doing it solo so your vault is blue with barely 100k, while they had a team so theirs is gold and purple, nearing 1kk credits. Here is one idea to make it fairer and speed up queues:
Maybe a way out of this mess is rotating queues? Just throwing stuff at the wall here:

Day 1:

Perimeter: solo queue with fill only

Dire March: triple stacks only

Cryo: duos only

Outpost: solos only, no fill

Day 2:

Perimeter: triple stacks only

Dire March: solo queue with fill only

Ranked map: solos only, no fill

Outpost: duos only

There are 7 days in a week; with 3 days of Cryo and 3 days of Ranked, both can go through solo queue with fill only, triple stacks, and duos.There are 7 days in a week; with 3 days of Cryo and 3 days of Ranked, both can go through solo queue with fill only, triple stacks, and duos.

This might keep duo and solo modes fresh and less ratty, with some players being compelled to play them just because of the map.

Yes, there will be frustration, but it's a way to keep matchmaking times and quality decent with the dwindling playerbase that the game has.

There's also the benefit of gameplay feeling really different on the same maps with forced different queues, artificially increasing the variety.

For example, on solo queue w/ fill Ranked and Cryo days, sweaty stacks will have to split to keep playing, and that will really change the game. It will keep the game feeling fresh for sweaty players because carrying the squad is a completely different skill set.

That's just the description for solo mode where everyone plays alone, no teammates; you enable it by disabling crew fill, yeah. Crew fill and 3-stack matchmaking are in the same pool, afaik.

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 06/04/2026
Bungie's matchmaking design is completely hostile to solo players and treats them as cannon fodder. I think that Marathon is dying because of it. It's such a pain to find someone to play with consistently. I wish 3-stacks had their own separate matchmaking. Or maybe solo play only mm, I don't care.

and fighting games are not my thing, unfortunately. I wasn't and am still not drawn to Undertale. Inside is good, but it's one game and short. I mean, right now I have soooo many different games for any mood on my PS5. X360 was the same; XB1 was a ghost town by comparison.

Titanfall 2 came out at the tail end of the cycle I mentioned, and so did Doom. Tomb Raider was an open-world assassinoid derivative that gave me the ick compared to the first one, which was linear and great. And Halo 5? The worst Halo? Uhh. Unfortunately, I somehow missed Shovel Knight! I played KI

We have a platform where cheating is almost impossible and most people are on an even playing field in latency and peripherals. What if we ruined it all for them just so the other half had slightly faster matchmaking speeds and more kills, I guess? WHAT A GREAT IDEA! LET'S DO THAT!

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 18/03/2026
Yeah, they got me. Consoles crossplaying with PC is still a horrifically terrible way to do it. Most of my deaths are from PC players, and some are REALLY WEIRD. I wish the worst to the people who are responsible for this decision.

There was a time when my only platform was Xbox One, and the only premium games available that were releasing there in 2014-2016 were Ubi open worlds or their clones. Even indies were not an option because the store was empty. Alien: Isolation was the only good linear game there. Horrible time.

The new AI (Artificial Incel) upscaler!
​A side-by-side comparison from a YouTube thumbnail featuring Grace Ashcroft from the Resident Evil 9 video game. The left side shows her standard in-game appearance with natural skin and subtle makeup. The right side shows an altered version where her facial features have been changed to include heavy eyeliner, red lipstick, and a more glamorized appearance with dramatic eye shadow. Large text overlaying the bottom of the image reads "DLSS 5 FIRST LOOK: NEXT-GEN PHOTO-REALISTIC LIGHTING". Below the thumbnail, partially visible text reads "Hands-On With DLSS 5: Our First Look At Nvidia's Next-Gen Photo-Realistic Ligh".

Marathon is pretty tough sci-fi. The mysteries and piecing together what is happening is one of the main draws of its story. It's so godsdamn cool. And the story is at the center of everything in Marathon.

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 28/02/2026
And the story: Destiny's mysteries are buried deep and left for a few very dedicated lore aficionados to find. On the surface Destiny has 0 story. The whole theme is science fantasy with some pop imagery.

Destiny's PvE gameplay is low-intensity, low-friction, very friendly, and it doesn't ask much from the player. Marathon gameplay is very adversarial and demanding, always keeps you on your toes: stimulating, sharp, spicy!

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 28/02/2026
Destiny's world and UI design is this very distinct, original, hopeful, cosmopolitan mush that's kind of made to be bland. Marathon is the complete opposite: it's aggressive, spicy, very grim and dark. Both games are still very original.

It's so sad for me, the situation with Marathon's crossplay and playability. Because so far, the game is just blow-me-away incredible. It's like they workshopped people like me, who have loooots of things we hate about Destiny, and they made something for us.

It feels like the Marathon Server Slam is the only time this game will be at least barely playable with console-only crossplay. The game has its highest player count right now, and matchmaking times are abysmal. And you can fix this by playing against cheaters and players with 500Hz screens on PC...

I'm not getting my hopes up for Saros because when I played and loved Returnal, I thought it was too easy and that it severely lacked a more hardcore game mode. Now the "sequel" is parading this "come back stronger" tagline. Basically, the main feature of the game is an easier Returnal? Meehhhh

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
And some years later we got the No Return game mode which is exactly what I wanted actually. That's kind of what I always expected from live service games. Old stuff still there, and then something new is added that builds on top of everything.

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
That's why I don't really want to get back into live service games anymore. They went the wrong way, in my opinion. I mean when I played TLOU2 I thought gods, what a great feeling combat system, I wish there was a round based arcade game mode or maybe a roguelite.

An exciting fantasy is: "Oooh, I remember how fun it was to fight bugs on that arid planet with red stuff, I wanna do that again." Guess what, I can't. And the weapons and abilities are all different and everything changed.

anna294929184.bsky.social @anna294929184.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
Instead I'm forced to live with rolling the dice on whether the new changed game is good or not and spending a lot of time just playing to figure this out actually. And that is not an exciting fantasy about getting back into a game that I've lapsed on!

I was always skeptical about Hall effect stick performance and was actually proven right in the tests I saw, but since the PS3 used TMR sticks, I decided to check them out. It's still too early to tell, but I do have a game with 2000 hrs of precise aiming muscle memory to test TMR vs original with.

Most of the dirt you see in the photo is actually from the factory, I only worked on the three small blobs in a row on the two sides. Nowadays there's no need to replace the whole stick assembly, only the potentiometer housings.
