There are still people so powerful they manage to use Windows XP in this day and age. My intuition says most people will be able to use Windows 10 for at least one more decade with minimal issues, after that it will gradually become trickier, but it will still be usable even in 20-30 years with advanced hacks if humanity doesn’t go extinct by then.

Oh man I love how much I have to manage my inventory in this game.

I’m currently playing Skyrim and I kinda dislike fast travel after Morrowind. It felt more interesting to figure out the best way to quickly travel from point A to point B because that involved mark/recall, mage guild teleports, propylons, silt striders, boats, etc. It was interesting logistics mini puzzle, and some of it you had to plan before traveling somewhere, (like the best place to cast “mark” spell). I guess inventory management can be like that too, it can come in different forms like having to play tetris with inventory slots in systems like Diablo, or balancing carry burden between companions in your party in games like Skyrim, or deciding between extended herbalism bags vs smaller general purpose bags in games like World of Warcraft.

Sure, I sometimes prefer simpler systems too. It depends on what I want to play currently. I’m more trying to say we need all kinds of games. Imo, complexity and flexibility of all those systems, like character stats, perks, inventory, etc - is what makes “RPG” an “RPG”. If you take a bit of it away it becomes an “ARPG” like “soulslikes” and other similar games. If you take even more of it away you get “slasher”, “3d platformer”, etc. I’m a big fan of ARPG and 3d platformers like Spyro or Soul Reaver, but it’s totally different kind of games.

Interface looks very similar to SkyUI 🧐

Those features though, I hope other RPGs consider them carefully:

• You can send items from inventory to your home base with a single click
• Consumables don’t weight anything so you can carry infinite potions

This is just way too casual/reductionist imo. At least make some mechanic that justifies sending items. Like an item teleportation spell or something. Imo it’s okay if some RPGs will be as convenient as this, but asking for every RPG to be like this is just too much.

On my bed with a laptop. Macbook Air makes it so comfy, I feel like this is its main feature.

Been digging some mixes on Soundcloud by Delayed, Deep Breakfast Series and MONUMENT. Found some gems, can recommend this for example: https://macadammambo.bandcamp.com/album/mms404-igaxx-here-and-there

Have a nice journey! Me using Lemmy started as “1 month popular sites alternatives challenge” which I arranged for myself after growing increasingly more annoyed by moderation at sites like Reddit and 4chan. Some other systems I started using more as a result of that are Mastodon and Bluesky.

When you body tells you it’s sleepy, listen, and go to bed.

If I go to nap for 10 minutes at 12:00 and then at 17:00, the next day I’m guaranteed to be sleepy both at 12:00 and 17:00. That’s how circadian rhythms adjust themselves. The only way to not be sleepy at 12:00 and 17:00 on further days is to overcome sleepiness and NOT give in.

And this 24$ thing runs games from 21 consoles (including PSX). Here is 13$ thing that plays 7 consoles.

Exactly my thoughts. I can buy real PS1 for 50$ where I live, and there are 25$ chinese retroconsoles that are able to run SNES+GBA+SEGA+Dendy+PS1 games (with bad PS1 performance though).

As an ESL: “IKR” aka “I know, right?”. I thought it has kind of passive-aggressive/sarcastic undertext, meaning something more of a “bro cmon this is obvious/trivial”, while it’s actually seems to be quite the opposite - emphatic affirmation of someones excitement about something. Keep in mind, I’ve never heard it IRL as I rarely talk to native speakers IRL, it was just a wrong impression from chats and online discussions.

Personally, I hope that a bio-phage will be created somewhere with 3d-printers in a science lab using amino acid blocks, synthetic viruses, nano-tech, powered by AI that singularly targets the Human Genome only… Release/Hack it across the planet, Unbelievably contagious…

Sounds like Covid19 😅

Anyway, if it makes you feel any better, animals are also driven by self-interest and don’t hesitate to exploit and destroy other species and environment.

Last time I played Fortnite it was also like this. It was bots + other weak players like you. It felt quite okay, early in the match you got some easy bot kills and later you had some challenge dealing with actual players of your skill level.

Reposting from my other reply: There is strafe actually, even two ways of doing it, using original DOS bindings: < and > or alt + left/right arrow. For me the easiest way to do it without strafe is just to move forward a bit, then go back and wait for dudes to come in from the right. Dealing with imps is really hard since their fireballs are sped up significantly. I tried a bit more and it seems it’s possible to actually beat this level properly. You can get other weapons and powerups. It’s just really hard with speed mode and nightmare difficulty.
