QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Bringing Boulder Dash back for a new generationEnglish5·4 days agoI loved the original games on c64 and atari800. I could never get into any of the reboots, remakes and restarts that used hi-def graphics. I think there is something lost when going away from repeating tiles and into polygons. Would love to see a remake using beautiful modern pixel art instead
Thanks! Would have missed it otherwise.
Appreciate the cat for being a cat. Cat is not there for you. Cat is.
Still can make you happy.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto BuyFromEU@europe.pub•Our Boycott is showing up in Steam Hardware Survey! Windows lost Speakers of every European Language, expect Russian!English6·15 days agoSeems to me like the growth of Chinese users is eating into EU numbers. Percentages are zero-sum game. They always need to total at 100. If one percentage goes up, others must go down even if the user numbers grow everywhere.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Phil Spencer, Microsoft Gaming CEO, not retiring from Xbox "anytime soon"English10·15 days agoIt’s corporate. Even if he were to retire or be laid off tomorrow, today the messaging will be “sky is clear, onward”.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a really popular TV show you just couldn't get into?103·15 days agoLoved the original, but US remake has just all the corners filed and padded.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you opt out of the facial scan at the airport?29·17 days agoThere is little point in refusing it. The biometrics are already in the database - the scan uses them to let you in without using your passport. Refusing to use the system will not take your data out of the database.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•The end of Stop Killing Games [Accursed Farms]English97·25 days agoIt was nice to have some degree of hope for nearly a year. So I guess, thanks for at least giving it a serious attempt Ross.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Sometimes the word "alternative" should be replaced with the word "bullshit". Ex: alternative facts, alternative medicine64·25 days agoI think Tim Minchin, in his prime coined the saying: Alternative medicine is either:
- Medicine that has not been proven to work Or
- Medicine that has been proven not to work You know what they call alternative medicine that’s proven to work? “Medicine”
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes@lemmy.zip•[Discussion] Dark Souls - Ultimate Game of All Time?English6·26 days agoThe souls games appeal to a specific audience - people who treat games as a challenge to overcome. They require patience, dedication and long stretches of repetition.
I play games for fun. I play them to experience escape fantasy, to tour new worlds, to do things I can’t do in real life.
While I understand how souls may appeal to many, to me they are a waste of time. I get enough accomplishment and satisfaction from my work and personal life and don’t need to prove anything to a piece of software.
So yea - ultimate game of all time? Certainly not for me.

QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your favorite games that you never see mentioned anywhere?2·28 days agoBanishers: Ghosts of New Eden. An absolute gem from Dontnod that plays like a double-A god of war with superb writing and voice performances.
Gives me the same vibes as Claire Obscure, but in a less flashy, more grounded world of early colonial America
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is an actor you can't stand, but everyone likes?183·1 month agoHe also downplayed the risk of electing Trump (first time around) with a “what’s the worst that could happen” attitude. I also can’t stand his misogynist attitude towards women “what could Michelle Obama teach us? How to tell if a dick smells presidential?”
To me that’s an attitude catering directly to the alt-right, incel crowd.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is an actor you can't stand, but everyone likes?1713·1 month agoActor/Comedian Bill Burr. I always found his comedy to be a “gateway drug” to right wing radicalization.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Xbox Game Pass might be getting a price hikeEnglish41·1 month agoI never used game pass, sorry. Only makes sense they have been hiking it for a while.
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Xbox Game Pass might be getting a price hikeEnglish47·1 month agoOf course it is. First of many. The price will keep rising, since currently Microsoft is losing money on it. The number of games will decrease, the price will keep going up, the users will cancel, rinse and repeat.
It truly is Netflix for gaming.
I pour one out for Bacon Reader
QubaXR@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Blue Prince - Have you played it? How blown is your mind?English1·1 month agoI keep wanting to love Hades but keep bouncing off it. It has all characteristics of what is want - great art, good story, solid voice acting… I think I am not into the combat mechanics though. Diablo, at least I would enjoy until I finished all the story and quests…
8,130km. Neither current location not spawn point feel like home. That would be 1,667km from spawn and 9,788km from here.
