LRP: Fucking god damn it. Cool that people are turning themselves into brain-dead morons who have to rely on a machine to shit out a worse product. Pray that we get a fork of PPSSPP that doesn't shit itself with AI generated code in the future.

An addendum to anyone needing to use PPSSPP but wants to avoid AI commits, it seems like the current stable build 1.20.4 from May 16 *should* be safe. Public commits with Claude as an author started July 24 this year.

Dude, this is genuinely so fucking disappointing. Nearly all of the commits I’ve seen for PPSSPP involve generative AI from Claude in the past week alone, and their entire newest dev blog is almost entirely written by Claude. Almost half of the commits in the past 3 months use Claude for AI code.

Not my project, but as I don't think the team have a post up here yet: It looks like the Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 3 patch is out! It's available over on their page for it, alongside some details and words from some team members: snsc3translation.github.io (images also taken from their site)

Think it's amazing that Pokémon can produce some incredible character designs and then do nothing with them. At least with the games. I have to assume in other media those characters do more than just stand still and tell you their job occupation.

Figured I should test the waters with using Backloggd to post reviews based off my notes and thoughts on shit I played over the years. So I should start with something I played more recently (at least within this year). Why not start off with Kirby's Adventure on the NES. bckl.gg/wUbZ

NickoRamblesOn's review of Kirby's Adventure | Backloggd
Kirby’s second platforming adventure and first on a home console. This game is also where the pink puffball gained his iconic Copy Ability, which lets him copy the abilities of the enemies he inhales and swallows, along with spitting them out as a star-shaped projectile. King Dedede is once again...

For some years now I've made multiple docs/spreadsheets mainly to track shit I've played, as well as writing up my thoughts and sorta "reviews" for them. I want to do more with them though, so one option I'm considering is making use of my Backloggd account just to post reviews or something.

It's gotten to the point I see news of a recomp/pc port a game got is vibecoded slop before that a game even got one. Fucking sucks shit that we can't have anything good from this stuff now.

There's a above 0% chance that Discord devs or whoever is running the brand side of things will try to get in on the trend of people torturing/posting gore of their shitty little mascot. But it'll be the weakest and most cowardly shit ever.

For no particular reason, I feel I should mention I updated my RPG Fan Translation Directory a few days ago with a bunch of new/missing titles, and also a very important change in the last paragraph.

I wonder how different things would be for Kingdom Hearts if Dragon Quest was the series that had a crossover with Disney instead of Final Fantasy.

Statistics for Steam Achievements can be funny sometimes. In the case of Birth by Sleep, more people have earned the achievements tied to beating all the superbosses available in the game than the one tied to using Pete's D-Link 10 times during an entire playthrough.

Disappointing to see MVG promoting that one early PS5 emulator that's allowing AI usage. Worse when most of the comments on that video are just sucking off vibe-coding bots and talking about how it """improves""" the speed of development.

Its great that most of the shitty AI generated fan translations that are getting released now have notes like "I don't know the language" and "I don't know how to program" and "this release is it, I know it sucks shit, hopefully somebody will fix it but I won't"

Beaten BBS and all the superbosses. Jesus christ what a rough time that was. It really do becomes a game where you spend most of the fight just dodging, using surge and mines, and maybe shotlock as long as the boss isn't immune to it.

When an AI project gets abandoned, it does not get picked up by anyone else, because it's just as much of a hassle to pick up AI mess as it is to start the project yourself. AI projects are not made to be maintained and updated by people, the AI is doing arbitrary bullshit. This project is dead.

Going through Birth by Sleep and done like 2 out of 3 character's stories. Combat is kind of a mess in that regular enemies and many of the bosses don't really put up much of a fight. Especially regular enemies. Meanwhile the non-Disney and late game bosses you barely have a chance to do much.

The first half of that Direct was kinda just whatever with only one thing I thought was neat like Xenoblade 3 update. Then you get hit with Metroid and Kirby, with a few other things I thought were cool like Eternal Anima and Torneko Mystery Dungeon. So I at least got something out of it.

So far it looks like they haven't really added or changed anything about the OoT remake outside of the really weird specific shit like the humming into a mic/ocarina or the integration with the mobile app shit. This sure is a "faithful" remake huh..

Been playing an old RTS called Battle Realms owned for a long time but never finished. While I might not be good at the game and found some parts quite difficult, I just managed to beat the base game. Though I only did one of the two routes you can do, so maybe I'll check that out.
