have positive reviews destroyed games? in c/gaming

[–] termus 2 points 13 hours ago

The only negative opinions I care about for gaming usually come from Stephanie Sterling, because she's pretty much right every time.

Lithium-ion battery waste fires are increasing, and vapes are a big part of it in c/technology

I'm pretty sure they technically are but no one cares enough to stop their sale. Obama banned "vape flavorings targeting children" which all of them seem to be. I've only seen them for sale in vape/tobacco shops. Places that get regulated, like gas stations, aren't carrying them. At least around where I am in the USA.

Edit. Doing further research... I guess they didn't?

This will never not be exciting in c/greenspace

At first glance I thought this was some weird soup.

Rubbed my eyes and now I see the cute little ones.

When there is so much AI slop out in the world that it makes you question whether something is AI or not. That's definitely erasing human creativity.

Steam requires devs to place it right before the system requirements if they use it. Pretty big print, pretty easy to find. You can see it plain as day on the Black Ops 6 page.

Awesome, appreciate the information!

AntiMicroX - Anyone with experience using controller remapping applications? (self.foss)

Hi Beehaw! I've finally made the switch to Linux, I'm using Nobara OS based on Fedora. It's been very nice so far (I had tried to go with Arch but Nvidia drivers ehhh). I'm running into issues remapping controls to my Xbox Adaptive Controller. Was hoping someone here might have some input.

I use foot controls for WASD control on a foot joystick and 2 other functions mapped to the L and R triggers, depending on game. Most of the time I'm just mapping them to a single key.

The problem I'm running into is getting dual inputs sent to the game. AntiMicroX is sending the remapped key but the game is also getting Left Trigger sent to the game. I've tried unmapping the buttons on the controller in Steam's Controller configurator and also disabling Steam Input for the game completely. But I'm still having issues in Helldivers 2 sending both. As an example, I have left trigger remapped to open Strategems, but it makes me ADS as well.

I did have this same issue in Windows sometimes but I used ReWASD and I was able to remap and mute the button in that application and that worked perfectly.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. I haven't booted back into Windows since last Thursday and I really don't want to ever again (Go F yourself CoPilot).

Should I play Dark Souls original or Remaster? (self.gaming)

I already own the original, but back when I got it I was unable to play due to the poor control schemes since I am disabled. Now I own an Xbox Adaptive Controller that I used to play through Elden Ring pretty well. I'd love to go back and play some of the earlier games.

I already own the original. Is it in any better state to play? I remember needing to add a fan patch to fix a lot of the issues. Or should I just get the Remaster and call it a day? Is there a recommended play order? I do see people recommending 3 over the first two if you're coming off Elden Ring.

Appreciate your opinions.

You all are awesome, thanks so much for your recommendations. Decided to give Prepare to Die another shot with DSFix, DS Config Utility and Widescreen Fixer. Looks awesome!!
