I am also running my own instance of azerothcraft on a vps so that i can play with some friends. Love it so far but summertime means there is not too much activity yet. Im running with autoscale mod and it is quite fun to run some of the lower lvl instances at lvl 60 and it is actually a challenge (yes i capped the level at 60 because that is what i know)
Anything in particular you like to do with your awesome gm powers? (moonfire spam wins)
Never tried it but recetly picked it up for free from epic store so will give it a try this summer!
I picked up mirrors edge again after some weeks without playing it and i cleared a level yesterday. Was going to do a session now as well, but now my save had been wiped. Probably related to me struggling to figure out lutris and heroic and messing around abit yesterday evening. It a little of a bummer but at the same time i found the game a little too frustrating - a good idea not executed well enough to be a truly enjoyable experience in my opinion.
I am abit indecesive at the moment. I fired up both tales of symphonia on gamecube and final fantasy 7 on ps1 yesterday, kinda want to start another jrpg but at the same time not quite where i want to commit myself to a long game. Also installing fallout 3 now so hm…
I fired up theme hospital for some fun this week as well though, that was a welcome nostalgia trip :)
Still have mirrors edge to continue, but this week i actually started setting up my own wow private server for some old buddies to play on. Will start for real after summer when they are more inclined towards gaming again. So far pretty fun to do (even thoguh just solo testing so far). I played a lot of wow 20 yrs ago
Parsley. Absolutely disgusting
Edit: i misunderstood - for the record parsley is awful in all shapes and forms
And if I don’t it’s because I’ve misplaced it, and the program isn’t going to help with that :(
In that case it will help you with where it was supposed to be
Maybe but its still not a weird number in this context :p
How is that usable? My work laptop with win11 is at 8-10 GB after boot
How is it a weird number? Its 2**9
Mirrors edge. Started a few weeks ago and been getting a couple of sessions in since. Its quite fun but also very frustrating. The controls are almost there but its just janky enough for me to die stupidly at the same spot over and over if it requires some combination of actions that is difficult. I somehow survived jumping from a subway cart to another without understanding how i actually was supposed to do it properly. And the combat i dont like. But will likely try to play thru it.
I also just discovered that xenia has a linux build now so i will be exploring some x360 games in the near future to see the state of it.
I got lost in time scrolling thru in disbelief the other day. So many “let me post this emoji ridden post about how this very mundane life experience reminded me of how important it is to maximize shareholder profit. The post will be at least seven paragrapgs and contain many emojis because i am hip 🤪🤪 and here are some hashtags that no one will sort on because i dont know what the fuck hashtags really are for so they are crazy specific” followed by all those comments you mentioned: “wow truly inspiring deeply inhales ops farts you are truly an inspiring business leader, here is a vaguely related anecdote so people can respond to this post as if i had anything of value to contribute and tell me my linkedin worth for all to see” written by some dude with “business value accelerator | working dad | ex-mckinsey” as his title under his name. Fuck off will you?
The circlejerking going on in the comments is so unbearable
What does that second paragraph even mean? :(
Yea me too, there are certain aspects of emulation that gives a better experience that in my opinion makes up for not playing on original hardware, such as save states and fast forwarding. I dont have the time to play games for two hours at the time often so if save options are scarce i wont progress without save states. And skies of arcadia would have been a nightmare to play without fast forward, i think i skipped 6-8 hrs of repetitive attack animations in my playthrough (as judged by diff in play time in retroarch vs in-game).
But i would love to play on original hardware once in a while still
I first got mirrors edge around the time it came out, but didnt play it much, think it was because of stability issues. Then ive always meant to play through it but never got around to.
And while you can only ever experience portal for the first time once, it is still fun to play thorugh again, especially if its some time ago and you dont remember how to solve everything.
I picked up portal 1 again, one of my favorite games. And then i also tried frostpunk a little. Seems cool but so far i suck at keeping the people warm
I also picked up a bunch of games on gog and might finally get around to play mirrors edge if it plays nice with proton.
I saw this some days ago and decided to buy ut only to realize i already owned it 🫠
What? I remember only small parts of the game being an rts. Didnt really like that part, but it was definitely not “the entire game”
Iirc (and the story was not complete bogus) the first game was designed for it but some exec didnt like it and forced hud and minimap late in development and is why it feels easy and repetitive if you play with minimap. Wouldnt be surpirsed if ac2 then was not developed with that in mind and would explain why it doesnt work as well
I run one on a 8 gb debian server from hetzner and it seems rock solid so far from what i can tell with the amount of traffic i am likely to have (just friends get an account). Running azerothcore and not trinitycore. Setup was very easy.
Quests are really just entries in a mysql database so im sure there are open source quests you can just inject into the database. or you can make your own :)
