Memphis, TN NES Max apologist
Started playing Overlord (2007) on PC yesterday. It's fun in a Fable meets Pikmin kind of way. What really surprised me is how well it runs "Out of the box" for a console port from 2007. No issues at all. 4k/120 and no tiny text or game speed issues in sight. Wish more older games were like that.

Been listening to Kadath by The Great Old Ones a bunch recently. Probably gonna be my album of the year for sure Really digging "Under the Sign of Koth" and "Those From Ulthar" This is a 9 minute long song, the whole thing is good but the back half starting at 5:20 or so is 🔥

So I guess Mississippi passed a law about age verification and
@bsky.app
blocked the entire state. That's great and all, but I'm in Memphis and I'm also blocked unless I use a VPN or my cell service. I know that the problem is because my connection at some point goes through MS but it still sucks!

This is quietly one of my most anticipated games. No idea when it'll be done and that's OK. I'll be there day one whenever it is.

Man, for a game that came out in 2009 The Sims 3 sure does run poorly on a PC that decimates the sys reqs. Tried playing it this weekend and despite trying all the different tweaks I could find it's always a stuttery mess when trying to pan the camera around despite it reporting a locked 60fps.

Played and finished Martha is Dead over the last couple days. It was interesting. Less of a horror game than I thought it would be and more a tale of mental illness. However....

Playing Lost Records: Bloom & Rage today. Interesting even if the dialog can be awkward at times. That performance though. DLSS set to ultra perf and I still go below 60 on a 4080 super. I'm using lossless scaling FG to hit 120 because it's somehow less wobbly looking than dlss fg in this case.

Outer Wilds VR is neat and surprisingly enough worked "out of the box" with my PSVR2 with PC adapter setup. Only minor complaint is that the scale seems off but I think that might just VR exaggerating the game's own diminished scale for planets and distances. Planets look like toys sometimes.

Just finished up the demo for "Metal Eden". It was pretty good! Make sure to go to the Steam forums and get the instructions on accessing the beta patch. Before, the demo had ran pretty poorly for me (hitching, frame drops), but afterwards it was smooth sailing.

Got a frantic phone calls from my folks this morning. They sounded so relieved to hear my voice. My parents thought I was dead/kidnapped. Turns out they got a call from a farmer who... found my cellphone in the middle of his field? But I have my phone. And he wants to return it. Scam right? Well, 🧵

Just wrapped up BLACKSHARD by @redlockstudio.bsky.social What a great experience! Amazing atmosphere, sense of mystery, art style, and music. I'm super impressed by how they made a game about a labyrinthine megastructure but I never felt lost. All without obvious signposting.

Just now discovered that I can filter out reshade "mods" from Nexus (assuming they've been tagged that is). Now to watch the mod count on the site decrease by half or more with a smile on my face. Even if it only catches a portion of the damn things the site'll be so much more useable to browse now.

Finally got around to trying PSVR2 on the PC. Only issue was the controllers. My fancy BT 5.4 dongle kept disconnecting and giving me connection warnings. So did a 5.2 Asus PCIE card. BUT my 11 years old crummy BT 4.0 USB dongle? Zero issues. Now if I could only fix my motion sickness so easily 🤢

For anyone looking to convert that new remixed Unreal Tournament album to UMX files for use in game, I used this site with WAV files from bandcamp and it works. Just gotta name them according to the already existing files. Didn't have any luck with oggs or MP3s though.

One thing I think is underappreciated about the original Dues Ex is the UI. -It kept every convo and data pad logged and editable/sortable -Let you take your own notes, even on images -supported copy/paste (!!!) -Supported alt+? hotkeys (underlined letters in the interface) Just slick all around.
