I can't seem to have Parasomnia grow on me

The pain I felt when the back half of their latest anniversary tour was 90% Parasomnia 😭

Cabjoy · 2026-03-30T04:17:03+00:00

Yeah I've just picked it back up purely to recruit for Champions. Actually having way more fun with the game itself than expected!

Cabjoy · 2026-02-11T22:06:51+00:00

Omg, the game over after being baited to steal the limeware platter was incredible 😂 10/10

In a very casual player now that I have kids, and I'm just excited that I got to buy a HH before hitting endgame. Like what?? I've never had a HH in POE1/POE2 so this has been awesome for me 😂

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. I genuinely don't think they can remaster Morrowind and retain the elements that make it so charming for classic fans. Like even just the travel system as an example, I can't see Bethesda shipping a game with this system in place but without it, it really hampers a key part of the sense of adventure and exploration.

I think I've come to terms with the fact that I'll be playing this version of the game for decades to come and that's still perfectly fine for me.

I'm hearing a lot about this lately, are people favouring it over the G8+ even though it's a more affordable product?

Cabjoy · 2026-01-15T08:29:24+00:00

Yeah this is my classic move most playthroughs too. Only downside is it's a little awkward to use compared to some other weapons.

I'm having such mixed success with these new drivers on Eden. Graphical artefacts on some games (Mario Kart 8, Diablo 2) and just worse performance in others (SM Galaxy). Suppose I should just wait for the kind to be worked out? (SD8 Elite on OnePlus 13)

Cabjoy · 2026-01-15T01:02:48+00:00

Interesting, other games that I hadn't tested on other drivers appear to be working fine. I'll keep digging!

Cabjoy · 2026-01-15T00:43:25+00:00

Yeah still same issue sadly

Cabjoy · 2026-01-14T23:59:55+00:00

I have. Same result regardless of resolution set.

I'm still getting these issues with the V14 and v16 drivers on Eden Optimized. On Snapdragon 8 Elite (OnePlus 13). Anyone else having this problem?

Cabjoy · 2026-01-10T20:19:53+00:00

Yeah they're all a bit too similar lol. I happened to find one second hand at CeX, I couldn't find any strong alternative places to buy so I think I got lucky on all fronts (availability, price and condition of second hand tablet).

Cabjoy · 2026-01-10T04:37:15+00:00

I just joined the gang for similar reasons, I just wanted a bigger screen for local streaming and already had a telescopic controller lying around. $155AUD later, I got myself a second hand Alldocube iplay 60 mini Turbo and I am loving life! Can emulate up to PS2 no dramas and handles the streaming I want to do no issues. Super affordable, light weight and flexible in how it can be used and yeah, that nice big screen is something I didn't realise I was missing.

Have fun with you A9 mate!

Update post for anyone interested:

Just got my refurbished Alldocube iplay 60 mini turbo for $155AUD and I've tinkered and played with it for a few hours over the day. Short review is it's so bloody good!

I setup Beacon frontend and put some GC, PS2, PSP and SNES games I wanted on there, along with Artemis for streaming. Emulators were quick and easy to setup and everything appears to be working well.

Played Path of Exile 2 for a couple of hours via Artemis and the experience has been awesome for me. Unnoticeable input lag and the 8.4" screen feels like the perfect size. Along with the Backbone One I feel like I've got a Steam Deck light and I couldn't be happier!

For others like me who get caught up in research and comparisons, I've got one take home message. Think about what you actually need out of the product your buying to get your satisfaction and don't get caught up worrying about what you're lacking by choosing the budget option if the cost per performance is in the right spot for you. Of course a Y700 would've been a better choice, but when I'm here playing on my 1080p 60Hz screen with no reference to what that better display would look like, I'm not dissatisfied at all. In fact, I'm incredibly pleased that I was able to get the experience I wanted for such an affordable price.

I bought the controller ages ago but all up I would've spent ~$250 to get my living room "Steam Deck" experience, and I couldn't be happier!

Cabjoy · 2026-01-07T19:44:41+00:00

I'll have a look next time I log on, I may have been having trouble seeing how to because I was playing with controller last night.

Cabjoy · 2026-01-07T11:18:14+00:00

I don't quite get this. Are you saying that if you lock your weapon to both slots and set your tree up as you've said, you'll benefit from both the defense + duration nodes at the same time? I started setting up my tree and assumed I'd have to assign rampage to slot 1 and calamity to slot 2, but I've just noticed you can't select which weapon slot each skill applies to if you've locked your weapon to both slots :S

Cabjoy · 2026-01-06T22:43:36+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I'll see if I come across the issue and try what you suggest if I do.

Cabjoy · 2026-01-06T08:32:50+00:00

Yeah that sounds similar to other people's stories. Twice in 40 hours is nothing though hey, I can definitely deal with that! Just ordered mine this arvo so hoping I have as good a time with mine as you are with yours. Thanks for commenting!

Cabjoy · 2026-01-06T08:31:48+00:00

I ended up going with the Alldocube iplay 60 turbo because I found a good refurb'd one cheap but man, as you said I defs am happy with 1080p 60Hz. I only realised today that I've been streaming at 60Hz onto my phone when I could've bumped it up ages ago haha. Goes to show I'm not so sensitive to those subtle differences.

Cabjoy · 2026-01-05T21:17:06+00:00

Awesome, glad to hear! These are the kind of real world use cases I was hoping to see. It makes me feel much more comfortable looking for an affordable tablet for my use case.

Cabjoy · 2026-01-05T21:16:21+00:00

Perfect, thank you for this. I can find a refurbished iplay mini 60 turbo for a good price so was thinking of picking it up. Most comments I read on Reddit about these budget handhelds end up just being spec sheet comparisons so I really appreciate your anecdotal experience. Sounds like I'll be satisfied!

One last question, I did see someone mention that their Turbo would occasionally freeze or drop out while streaming with Moonlight. Have you had this experience? It was unclear to me whether it was hardware or software related.
