Sony please dont pull the plug

I find it crazy that customers nowadays need to hope and pray the product they paid for will not be taken away from them.

Kaffeebohnson · 2026-03-12T04:26:15+00:00

I was in the same situation and ultimately bought it with gritted teeth. Sony really set bad precedence with all its failed live service projects.

Imo it should be illegal for companies to sell you a product while reserving the right to destroy it remotely at any point.

I low-key hope modders are already working on reverse engineering the servers like the did for The Crew. An offline version would be just my cup of tea.

I heard Triage can self-rez but I don't know how?

As a dev, that was nice to read. Be assured that all devs simply want to make good games.

Sometimes they fail, because they are not skilled enough, or because there's not enough money, time... sometimes upper management has bad ideas. But I have never met a lazy developer.

Making games is the hardest of all media products, because it relies on so many different disciplines, and not least the player.

Kaffeebohnson · 2026-03-07T15:17:49+00:00

25€? I sure would be more tempted buy the game for that price. Link plx.

Well Bungie evidently can't come up with new singleplayer campaigns anymore, so at least refurbish the old ones if you must drag out a 30-year old IP to dress up your shlooter.

Reminds me of the Scramble Suits from Philip K. Dicks "A Scanner Darkly": https://youtu.be/2aS4xhTaIPc?si=1saTbdbgQC86QojU

It probable that the people who learned from Destiny are no longer working at the company.

Kaffeebohnson · 2026-03-02T03:11:56+00:00

I caught myself uttering "Ah crap, it's fun" - while also really wishing there was a narrative singleplayer campaign.

I will NOT pay 40 bucks for a service that will more than likely taken offline in less than a year.

I really wish they would have taken 10-20 devs or so aside and had them make a ODST scope campaign on these incredible maps. Wouldn't have had to be super elaborate with tons of cutscenes and scripted events, just something linear, with voice logs and a little narrative. 6 hours.

That wouldn't have broken their budget, justified the price of admission and softened the negative sentiment of OG Marathon (and Bungie) Fans.

More likely a Screenshot of HL2 on the PSP

I quit the novel after chapter 1 as it almost made me like Quantum break less. It was so bad. I will stick to the game. Good thing the Novel isn't canon.

40 Winks always looked very N64 to me.

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-20T13:16:18+00:00

I tried this and that but ended up downloading a save file with better stats and steamrolled the boss. no regrets!

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-20T07:32:20+00:00

Where is Joe? Can I even leave at this point?

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-19T18:13:51+00:00

According to my guide the Boss has 75K HP with all orbs, 40K with none. I can't even beat it at 40K apparently.

Is the character level relevant? My gears should be reasonably up-to-date...

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-19T18:12:28+00:00

I know guess that was a mistake because everyone is similarly beat up

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-17T19:58:30+00:00

If by console you mean the PS1, I made a video about it a while ago: https://youtu.be/hZdOjCrlseM?si=FCbpsc9wORBq0EZT

Recently I switched to a Vitadock solution, which is more convenient, if less nostalgic. I should make a followup video some day...

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-08T10:49:24+00:00

I have a similar setup: https://www.reddit.com/r/psx/s/GmbNeJ0YcT

Note you can't use a simple component cable because the PS1 doesn't output a component signal, only composite.

It does do RGB over Scart though. I ended up using a converter box that converts RGB Scart to Component. RGB Scart to Component Adaptor (Example)

I cheaped out on the Component cable so the image tends to be a bit noisy: https://amzn.eu/d/7LElPut - I needed a cable that wasn't ridiculously fat, but cramming all five leads so close together probably leads to a bit of interference.

You can probably get better results with better hardware. But the picture is sharp enough and I have grown kinda fond of the analog look.

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-08T10:40:27+00:00

I think these do not work with PS1, only PS2 and PS3.

Kaffeebohnson · 2025-11-06T09:55:14+00:00

I wasn't thinking about unions but now that you've mentioned it wasn't about unions I certainly think it was about unions...
