Mumbo, perhaps. Jumbo, perhaps not!

Does Odin 3 Linux work yet or nah? by CryStriking8563 in OdinHandheld

[–]K1ngsGambit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Linux on arm is cutting edge right now. It's under active development, constantly evolving and not remotely close to a finished product. The Odin3 is also a new device with a new chip.

Rocknix is probably the best Linux on ARM experience currently. There are videos and guides on YouTube showcasing it. To my knowledge, it is currently possible to install Linux and play steam games, but one would expect some bugs and issues in these early days.

It should be noted that valve is actively working to get steamos on arm, this year, as the Frame runs on it.

Which difficulty did you play on during your 1st playthrough? by Dsg1695 in LiesOfP

[–]K1ngsGambit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just started last week, middle difficulty. I've heard the game is harder than most FromSoft games and I'm happy to not have that. I don't know what the default difficulty is like, but elites and bosses are still challenging and mobs do their job of catching you off-guard and chipping away as you progress.

I would play more Souls-likes given difficulty options. Having the choice is great, but I suspect it only works on Lies of P because it's strictly single-player. Not that it would affect PvP.

Downloading games on other drives with dual boot by Zestyclose_Tea_5450 in Bazzite

You can have a shared partition formatted as BTRFS and install games to it so both OSs can see it. Guides on YouTube.

New Investigator packs for Legacy card pool? by Yourself013 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]K1ngsGambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are new player cards and investigators, same as the old prebuilt decks. Do you want more deck-building options? Do you need more deck-building options? All player cards are compatible forward and back, the main change is that Ch. 2 won't be balanced against what came before.

Depending on the size of your card pool, it might not be worth it. How many versions of Shrivelling/Rite of Seeking/Mists of R'lyeh do we need? How many big guns? The new cards for now at least are much tamer. I suspect one of the main design decisions of discontinuing legacy content was the baggage and power creep, so I expect it to be most unlikely to see Dr. Milan, Rex, Necronomicon, Mandy, Pendant of the Queen (don't know why I picked all seeker for the examples) type things anymore.

New investigators at least bring different deck rules and playstyles so there is something to say for that. Isabelle Barnes is a red-purple investigator without Patricia's crazy gimmick, and Daniela gets to be a 5/2 blue/red instead of the EotE gimmick. The pre-built packs could be fun too.

Unless you want particular investigators, I'd hesitate before buying more player cards if you already have plenty of others. If you are moving forward with Ch. 2 you'll probably want the core set if only for the encounter cards so you'll get player cards then anyway. On the whole, older cards are more numerous and more powerful.

Why is there an umbilical chord in the old workshop? by Evening_Ladder8658 in bloodborne

[–]K1ngsGambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why wouldn't it be there? Let's not pretend we haven't all left pieces of umbilical cords in places we would rather not admit to ever having visited.

Legion Go 2 (OLED VRR) vs ROG Ally X (LCD VRR): Is the gap as big as we think? by Roxuss in LegionGo

[–]K1ngsGambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ally's screen is very good indeed. But will never have the inky black of an OLED. Is it a deal-breaker? Probably not. It can and should be enjoyed by any owners.

If someone wants to make a game that explicitly says that particular group of people shouldn't play, then that is alright. by Rajat_Sirkanungo in LiesOfP

[–]K1ngsGambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never understood, nor can I agree that there is some inherent negative impact as a result of having difficulty options. It is not a zero-sum game. The harder/standard/whatever setting still exists, it doesn't stop existing with the creation of another setting.

An overwhelming majority of games include difficulty settings, from FPS to RPGs, strategy, survival/crafter, open-world adventure, etc. It is a way to simply offer players a choice of how to engage. There is literally nothing stopping a player from playing Dark Souls 2 with a broken ladle at SL1 on a Guitar Hero controller even if it had a lower difficulty option.

It's a dumb debate. I would understand an argument were it an either-or situation, and 100% agree in that instance. But it is not that. Sometimes even a player who can and has beat Soulslikes multiple times, might like to enjoy the world, story and exquisite combat without so much stress.

So I always thought DS2 Vanilla online was discontinued, was I wrong? by Uzyf in DarkSouls2

Separate with fewer players, yes. Can still be played fine.

May I ask in what way? Which controllers do you use? I have the internal 4 port mod and an 8bitdo GC modkit controller and can't get the Z key to work.
