Kurabba, the #1 player in the world, beat Isai sending him to losers bracket 1-3. Isai turned on the heat and proceeded to steamroll the rest of the tournament and beat Kurabba 6-0 resetting the bracket and taking the championship! Truly the GOAT. His aggressive pikachu was amazing to watch.

I wanted to connect with my Guardian Tales players but i could not find any post/community for it, or gacha gaming in general

Is anyone interested in creating a new community for GachaGaming, or even better for Guardian Tales?

Take-two Interactive hints that long-anticipated GTA 6 could release in 2024.

Ubisoft would be preparing complementary cosmetic content for their new game, Assassin’s Creed Mirage

I was pleasantly surprised by the new Jagged Alliance 3 release last week. It really flew under the radar, but I'm glad I snagged it because it's been really great so far.

I did run out of cash on the first island, so I treated that as a trial run. Every situation feels fresh, and the RPG elements seem more fleshed out than the new XCOM games.

I'm really liking how open-ended it seems; it reminds me a little bit of the original 2 Fallout games. I'm hoping for a PVP dlc or mod in the future, because (perhaps an unpopular opinion) Deadly Games was my favorite entry in the series; I played against my brothers all the time when I was a kid.

98 has some of my favorite games to ever come out, like:

• Marvel vs. Capcom
• 1080 Snowboarding
• NFS3 Hot Pursuit
• Tekken 3
• Starcraft + Brood wars
• Commandos
• Fifa 99
• Pokemon
• Fallout 2
• Half Life
• Ocarina of Time
• Baldur's Gate

And many more

I discovered today that my most played game on Steam is Astronner with about 500 hours, and my second most played is Surviving Mars with about 500 hours.

Video games can teach deep truths about life, society and human nature.

Which ones stand out for you?

Hi all,

I have shattered pixel dungeon and it's amazing. Love it.

I also have and love Unciv and Mindustry.

I'm looking for more great games that don't collect your name, contacts, sms history, billing details, healthcare info, gender and race info, location data etc etc.

The games don't have to be open source, but it would be preferable.

I've donated good money to all games listed above as I love them. So not chasing free. Just chasing trusted.

Thank you

I'd recommend Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition. Go check it out if you haven't yet.

If you have, why don't you have a pork bun in your hand?

This means you can't pass the game around to your friends or sell it afterwards, which completely ruins the purpose of physical media imo. I mostly play PC these days so this doesn't affect me, but it's a disappointing direction for console games. At least they could've used an empty disc that has proof of ownership.

EDIT: Bethesda has confirmed that only the PC version won't include a disc. Physical versions of Xbox will include a disc. Whew.

First, some background: I first became aware of PC gaming in 2012 (15yrs after HL1, 7yrs after HL2). I played both games back-to-back and then later replayed both separately.

There's so much to be said about these two games, but I'll sum up my feelings in a few bullet points:

• HL1 is more thematically unified. It plays true to its Sci-Fi & Die Hard roots up to the point of campiness, but that fits rather well for a game whose protagonist is effectively a nerdy Doom Marine -- more a force-of-nature embodiment of survival than traditional hero.
• HL2, on the other hand, feels weighed-down by this legacy. It wants to tell a serious story about a charismatic freedom-fighter. That's an aesthetic which clashes terribly with HL1's mute, stoic survivalist.
• HL1 has a better core gameplay loop. It plays to its strengths: gunplay & level exploration. Exposition & puzzling are almost always delivered through these mediums wherever possible. Those few chapters which depart from this philosophy (On a Rail, Xen) are the weakest in the whole game as a result.
• HL2, by contrast, seems almost insecure. It only trusts the player to stick with the core gameplay-loop for a few chapters at most before pivoting into yet another gimmick -- almost all of which (barring the gravity gun sequence) feel painfully drawn out:
  • Water Hazard: Boating
  • Highway 17: Driving
  • Sandtraps: Physics "Puzzling" + "Platforming"
  • Nova Prospekt: Wave-Based Point Defense

What do you guys think? There's a lot worth unpacking here which I couldn't quite articulate. What are your takeaways?

Hi! I'm the mod over on https://lemmy.ml/c/ps5

We are currently afflicted with the remote moderator bug, meaning that you'll get a "404 community not found" message.

Here is a link to the GitHub issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3075

We are still accessible at https://lemmy.ml/c/ps5@lemmy.ml

When the new backend update rolls out it should be fixed. Until then we unfortunately don't show up on browse.feddit.de or lemmyverse.net

I've been working really hard to build a great community over there and a little bug like this just knee capped our discoverability. The only thing I can think of doing is posting this on other gaming communities to spread the word.

So my old headset finally fell apart completely. I've been trying to find a fitting replacement, but man is it hard... so here's hoping I can get some guidance here.

I'm looking for a comfortable wireless headset with decent reach and mic. That's it. No need for ANC. Or at least the option to turn it off. Don't need RGB or fancy designs. It seems impossible to find a headset that fits the description without being subpar quality...

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Hey everyone,

I'm a bit of a fan of the Emergency series sadly the game hast lost a lot of quality over the years and the resent installments are just the same game with minor changes. So do you know any games that are like Emergency? I know of 911 / 112 Operator and they're good but not quite the same.
