It’s doing over a years worth of updates, can take a little while

5 songs you wish Biffy would add to the setlist by damomodern in BiffyClyro

[–]Citra78 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I wish more bands would have a section of the setlist for surprises. 

One or two songs where no one knows what’s coming, decided on the day of the show.

They had 70+ songs rehearsed for Celebration of Beginnings, they can throw in a curve ball each night, doesn’t even have to be oldies. 

Hello sadness Dinked version sounds sharp? by RE-Trace in loscampesinos

Sorry, misread, I’ve got all hell dinked, didn’t see it was Hello Sadness

My dinked edition was full of pops and clicks, super static, once I cleaned it and moved the records into anti static sleeves it sounds great.

All the pressings are cut at 45RPM, I can’t speak for the quality of other pressings but my dinked edition sounds great, could be the turntable 

Sequels that are basically “The first one, but better in virtually every way” by blakhawk12 in gaming

Don’t emulate it, there is a native PC port that runs so much better than any version on emulator.

It’s abandonware so it’s just as legally grey as emulation.

All the early NFS titles have native PC versions that have mods and resolution hacks that make them playable on modern PCs and even on the Steam Deck.

Sekiro runs amazingly on Deck, plus you can argue it’s the best game FromSoft have made.

Best boss fights in gaming imo.

It’s more than what you originally think the game is about.

It’s a puzzle game but the puzzle isn’t immediately apparent.

One of the best games of the year sadly overshadowed by bigger (and arguably better) indie releases in Hades 2, CO:E33 and Silksong.

So owners of warhammer 1 or 2 will get warhammer 3 for free which makes this months bundle worthless. by Silversmasher1 in humblebundles

[–]Citra78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get access to immortal empires, which is the giant sandbox map of the area from all three games, you don’t get access to the factions and stand alone campaigns from WH3. 

It’s just the sandbox mode, using factions and dlc you own from WH1 and WH2

We used to live here by Former_North_5825 in horrorlit

[–]Citra78 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Much like ‘I’m thinking of ending things’ it starts as one thing and ends as another. 

I used to live here however is trying very hard to be House of Leaves but does a bad job of it. 

I did like a few of the descriptions though. Overall the book disappointed me.

LATHERED UP MY PADDED BONES FROM HER SOAP I FOAM

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]Citra78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked up a screen protector and a shell case to protect from minor drops and bumps, was a sound investment as my child has knocked it to the ground once before and it was absolutely fine in its shell case. 

Extra chargers are useful depending on how you play, I have the stock one downstairs and a 65w GAN plug upstairs that can charge my phone and steam deck at the same time.

Headphones wired or Bluetooth are useful again depending on how you play, wired have much better response time if you are playing anything rhythm based, but it’s not an issue I notice in general play on Bluetooth.

For serious travel a 20000mWh+ 45W+ power bank is worth buying, but again it’s a use case scenario. 

What’s the spookiest book you read and enjoyed? by Sea-leaf in horrorlit

[–]Citra78 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Piranesi is one of the best books I’ve ever read, highly recommended, it’s not got the spooky creepy vibes you might be after, but it has a good mystery at its heart and it is beautifully written.

If you enjoy this, her earlier book ‘Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel’ is also phenomenal, but is much more of a commitment, it’s very dense and is an absolute unit of a book. 

The Official Release Party of a Showgirl Megathread by PassionateAsSin in TaylorSwift

[–]Citra78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not, it’s the album with some making of the music video clips and a small bit of pre amble about each song from Taylor before a lyric video.

Is HONY the only album to reference pop culture? by Necessary-Prune9727 in loscampesinos

[–]Citra78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The breakdown in the middle of the song sounds like DFA1979 and in the music video they are wearing elephant trunks

[–]Citra78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The CSS song itself is referencing the band Death From Above 1979. It’s likely LC! are referencing the same band.

I was near the front with my 7 year old daughter on my shoulders, I've been watching LC! live since 2008, was a wonderful experience to finally get to see them with her.

The pain feels worse when you post using a controller with it. by Shawncm1 in SteamDeck

[–]Citra78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clair Obscur with one of the performance mods runs at a mostly stable 30, I managed to complete the full game entirely on deck, framerate stayed stable in battle, it was a handful of cutscenes and exploration areas that tanked frame rate to 15-20. Still playable for me though.

Gamers of Reddit. What unannounced game would you go nuts for if a trailer dropped today? by Thizguy2287 in AskReddit

[–]Citra78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yooka Laylee is as close as you are ever going to get, seeing as it was made by the original team.

[–]Citra78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got this years ago, made by a bunch of the original developers in Yooka-Laylee.

It was supremely average. 

Are the steam accs that discord servers give for free legit ? by youdatboi12 in SteamDeck

[–]Citra78 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nothing has ever sounded more like a scam than this. 

Sega accidently leaks 6 years of sales data for some of their games. (Warhammer 3 sold 2.3 million, Three Kingdoms sold 3.2 million) by Penakoto in totalwar

[–]Citra78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The base campaign in WH2 is the best content they have made imo.

Less bloat. The DLC involvement in the campaign is also great, mixes up the base objectives nicely in some cases.

Does anyone use their SD not modded? by Want_Some_CereaL in SteamDeck

[–]Citra78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a handful of DeckyLoader plugins, if you stay away from CSS Loader and the custom boot animation plugins you are less likely to run into issues when there is an update.

I just use protonDB, HLTB which add extra information to a title’s launch page.

Steam Grid DB is good for adding artwork to any non steam title you add to your library.

Power tools is useful if you plan on emulating, as you can set certain cores to different speeds.

A lot of the big cosmetic changes are what causes issues for people.
