while I do not know anything about torrenting. "mullvad" is a highly recommended vpn providers with a strong emphasis on privacy.

This 100℅ I even bought a ps4 to play it. It was a really dull game and the character movement felt clunky. I finished it too, but I do not care to play it again.

Ff8 was dope though.

To be fair, it was a really fun game. They did a great job with it. In fact, I've been itching to play it again.

I played it at launch and don't think in had a single crash. Possibly 1, but I can't remember.

I had at most 2 bugs where I needed to restart the game.

I'm sure things have only gotten better.

People have been telling you to game on PC for a while now.

Its pretty much plug and play these days.

Nintendo switch wonder

My desktop gpu is an rx470 4gb.

It’s only slightly more powerful than the steamdeck. I’ve been waiting for the day when modern gaming can comfortably be done on an igpu.

I think we are basically there now.

I see what your saying.

Someone said that valve does not want to upgrade the Steamdecks cpu regularly that way it can act as a baseline for games to target.

I kind of like this approach. I think so many devs focus on making everything bleeding edge when most of us would be happy playing with low settings.

Maybe the steamdeck will lead to further optimizations to these games down the line and maybe games that are early in development will try to target the steamdeck for the minimum spec.

Starfield and bg3 were too far along in development when steamdeck game out for them to optimize for it.

I’ll be happy to see how it runs though.

So you like $200-150 for a working system. Then the steam deck is like hey im $400 and way more capable.

Sell it to who?

Nevermind, I see that there is an s10e. I'll compare those two phones to see if the 10e is worth the extra $20.

 

I’ve been really wanting to get a steamdeck. I’ve been playing a lot on my modded switch, but there is a lot I want to play that is not available on the switch.

Does anyone have both systems and still use the switch?

I imagine I can just dump my games and emulate them on the Steamdeck.

I don’t do anything online, so I can’t imagine I’ll miss out on anything.

Im an experienced Linux gamer, so im not worried about the Linux side of things.

 

I played this game back when it released on Gamecube. I honestly have almost 0 memories of this game. I only kinda sorta remember a specific room or two and not even well enough to really explain them.

I am not sure why I do not remember it very well. I remember Majora's mask much better and I had only played that once at launch as well.

At this point, I have finished the first dungeon and it was pretty easy. I wonder if this game is just an easier game then modern zelda titles. Although, it seems like it is easier than Ocarina. At least so far.

The enemies feel meatier. Like, they take more damage and don't bounce around as easily. I am not enjoying it as much as I thought i would, but I am going to stick with it.

I kinda want to play through the 3d zelda games again. I keep trying Majora's mask and then putting it down before I even leave the starting town. I am playing on a PC, but I'd much rather use a steam deck to play as I do not often sit at my PC unless I am working.

 

I first got into trek with the 09 movie. It was a lot better than I expected and a good friend of mine is huge into Trek.

I decided to give the tv series a try. After being a little unsure what to watch I started with ENT. I figured it’s my first time watching trek and it’s their first time exploring and I liked that parallel. I’ve recently rewatched this series and liked it a whole lot more. This series is much better after having seen at least TNG, DS9 or VOY.

My watch order, not including new Trek was,

ENT > TNG > VOY > DS9 > TOS > TAS > PRO > TOS movies.

I watched all the other new trek stuff as it came out and watched the TNG movies a few months back.

By far, the TOS movies were the hardest to enjoy. The 2, 3, and 4 movies were decent, but 5 was really bad.

TOS series was also a little hard to get through. I could only watch a few episodes at a time. Unlike PRO which I watched in a day.

It’s hard to pick a beat or favorite series, but if you were going to watch one I think I’d easily recommend TNG. It’s such a great show and has such a great cast.

I’m loving all the new trek stuff as well. I’m really surprised at how good PRO was. And SNW has been a masterpiece.

I’m rewatching DS9 now and I’m at the start of season 3. Wow, this show has so many good episodes just one after another.

 

So the ending of Prod was basically the same as Pic. It’s a little annoying to basically see the same plot in two shows that aired like a year apart.

Did they ever comment on how similar the endings were?

 

I just watched this episode the other night and Kirk seems to be annoyed with Sulu, then Spock is like 990.07 light years, not 1000 please be more accurate.

It felt off for those characters. But maybe it was just late when I watched itS. What do you think?

 

I teach English and I need the Reach Higher G4A level and higher. There used to be a store online, but they were banned. I guess they didn’t sell a legit copy of the book.

Can anyone recommend some places where I can search for them or even buy them? I’m not in the US.

 

I am trying to find a series of text books that can be used to teach English. I don't mind paying for them, but I can't find a way to purchase them in my country.

The series I am looking for is Reach Higher, I specifically need the Reach G4A level and higher.

If anyone has any advise on where/how to get/buy them, please send me a message.

 

My wife just got into Tetris and wants to play together. I have been bragging to her about how good I am at Tetris and now she wants to play together

We would like to play side by side on the TV, but we do not want any of that stuff where if person A does well, then person B gets random blocks.

Does something like this exist?

We could play on PC or on Switch.

 

I am playing Pokemon Violet at the moment and it is a total bore. I have played the game so many times and I just want to run around catch Pokemon and battle.

I do not need another tutorial about what a Pokemon center is. Or a tutorial to tell me that I need to use a Pokeball to catch a Pokemon.

Can we get a "I've played this game 100 times" mode where it just saves the tutorials and lets us play the game?

 

Very Early Game Spoilers

I am playing Grandia 1 for the first time on the Switch and it hit me so hard when Justin moved away.

For reference, I moved to another country when I was 30 and I have not returned to my home country since. The plan was to come back at some point, but I have built a life here and have been married to a local. My parents came out to visit recently and I talk to them a few times week, so it's not like it is some super sad story, but it was a tough part of the game to work through.

I related to Justin so much and have been drawn in to this game so much due to the characters. I am still really early in this game. I just made it across the sea and look forward to becoming an adventurer.

One thing that I find interesting about this game is that the style of the game and menus are like a mix of PS1 and SNES graphics. I guess this was an early PS1 game.
