I was "done" with Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, but a day later the first patch dropped, so I gotta go back to it.

Death Must Die was my replacement for DRG, but the game is a bit boring, so I'll wait for more patches. It's basically Hades but Vampire Survivors. So far there are five characters in the game, but four are very similar. The different spells or upgrades are also not really too interesting and barely change the gameplay, so most runs feel the same. I hope further updates can improve the game.

Then, I started both Horizon: Forbidden West and Dragons Dogma 2 on PC, but right now I'll stick with DD2. The game is basically what I remember DD1 being, but with a fresh coat of paint, for better or worse. Back when I played the first game, I had a great time for like 70 hours, but by the end, I never wanted to see the game again (and never played the DLC). Even though it's been eight years since then, I still feel a bit burned out, so seemingly so few changes don't really help. I started out as the mage and just recently switched to the sorcerer, but imma be honest, it's pretty boring. I'll give it a bit longer, since I barely got any spells right now. The archer and thief look more fun, so I might give these a shot, if the giga wizard doesn't improve things. I also gotta say, the Pawns are some of the most annoying NPCs in any video game ever. They spew one of their dozen different voice lines every 20 seconds, which is just awesome. You can mute their audio, but then you might also miss useful callouts like when they find a chest or info about enemies. The subtitles for their lines would of course still clutter the screen though.

Not everyone is going to hop onto the internet to publicly report their issues.

But enough people are. People are talking about every small thing they did, what happened, whatever.

Also, with all the different plugins or stats available on this thing to track everything, you can probably create a pretty detailed breakdown of what someone did with their Steam Deck.

You'll definitely have users gaming on the thing for 8+ hours every day, so I don't see much value in that. Like I said, you might as well just wait for users to report their experiences.

needs to do now is to create a more realistic test. Using static elements for maybe 6 hours at a time every day

That's kinda useless. You might as well just wait for the user reports at that point.

These unrealistic torture tests accelerate the potential burn-in, and it's still useful to gauge how long it could really take.

I'm kind of in a gaming slump right now and nothing has really grabbed me for a couple of weeks.

I'm still doing runs in Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, which is fun for the most part.

Then I think I finished the campaign in Kingdom Rush, a Tower-Defense game, which unlocked a bunch of super hard bonus levels, but I guess you're supposed to clear all the challenge modes for the regular levels before that, for upgrades, but I'm not really interested in that at all.

I also tried getting back into Dyson Sphere Program, Last Epoch, and Satisfactory, but nothing really stuck.

A few days ago I started Solasta: Crown of the Magister, and played through the tutorial, but still need to start it properly, but who knows if I'll do it.

Nioh 2 and Battleblock Theater (when played Coop)

No? I really hope this isn't a serious question, because I can't imagine how you'd come to this conclusion, if you read the full sentence.

I think that's just a concession from Nvidia, and they wouldn't really have to pull any games from the service.

I've been playing more Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor. Last week I said I found all the characters to be pretty weak and would probably not play it for much longer, but apparently I was missing some very crucial information. There are a bunch of weapons for you to unlock, but I found most of them to be kinda bad. However, you need to upgrade them to level 12 in one run, afterward you'll unlock the ability to overclock them, which can drastically increase their power. In my opinion, this process is far too tedious, and I'm not a fan, but at least it helps with the difficulty somewhat. For now, I'll just keep unlocking stuff, slowly progressing through the game.

Then, Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin. I found a build, that I replicated, but in hindsight I might as well just used the Extra Mode for infinite invulnerability. It's all about one or two shotting most enemies, so they can't even fight back, although bosses require a bunch of tries sometimes. I'm now in the second DLC, but I'll probably look for some other build, so I'll actually play the game.

I wanted to give Last Epoch a try after the 1.0 release, but then I decided to upgrade my PC, so I've been dealing with that the last few days. Installing everything again, settings things up, etc. Since I also like to tune everything a bit, I've also spent some time benchmarking and stress testing, but I definitely need to do some longer tests (12-24 hours), to make sure everything is stable.

Yeah, lots of weapons you can to unlock, then level each to 12 once, before you can overclock.

[–] Poopfeast420@kbin.social 2 points 8 months ago

Not any better even if you know.

He's a weirdo, but I think it was just normal porn. Maybe it was some porn with magic tricks, since he's into that as well.
