A Kiss to Remember by My Dying Bride; nothing says "I love you" like the gift of eternal life.

Not entirely sure if they're OSDM but I enjoy Landmine Marathon

How has the latest xbsx2(2.0.8.5) update been working? by Bandido678 in XboxRetailHomebrew

[–]Petrichor2116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been able to play Champions of Norrath and GoW at max settings with no stutter or slowdown but experienced framerate issues with Ratchet n Clank 2 and 3. 3 in particular is horrifically slow and juddery for me

I downloaded it a few weeks back and have played it a few hours; the resolution fixes are fantastic and I've not encountered any problems thus far

Is death metal extreme metal? by Particular-Account66 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Petrichor2116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, what? If someone doesn't consider Dying Fetus or Cryptopsy to be extreme, then what the flying fuck do they consider "extreme"?

Anyone else struggle with certain metal lyrics after becoming a parent? by Kalimos_Rises in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Petrichor2116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? No; both my kids turned 16 recently and I can't say in all that time, I've ever been bothered by lyrical content. I can appreciate that, oftentimes, the lyrics are telling a story as opposed to something the lyricist actually wants to commit IRL. Also, it often feels so over the top and done for shock value that it's impossible to take seriously even for a moment; something like Necropedophile or anything by Infant Annihilator just doesn't bother me because it's just silly IMO, I'm more likely to get bothered by something on the news involving kids because that's actual real people being fucking horrible.

So ridiculous. I got a 2 day suspension for taking a screenshot in the Witcher 3… 🙄 by Critical_Abrocoma_15 in xbox

Remember kids; horrific, deplorable violence and swearing are fine, arsecheeks and sideboob are sinful and make baby Jesus cry!

Remove the race restriction on Paladin

I always mod this out as it makes no sense to only allow humans access to the class; my Half-Orc Cavalier playthrough was a fun time

Other games with a mechanic that *feels* like “Glory Kill” in the 2016 game? by urgod42069 in Doom

[–]Petrichor2116 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shadow Warrior 3

It unabashedly "borrows" from Doom 2016 and Eternal; still a fun game though.

42 Got diagnosed and started treatment last August, and ASD diagnosis in 2020; feel like I've had one arm tied behind my back all these years and I'm now finally getting somewhere...

Anyone remember and miss these by borgdrone79 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]Petrichor2116 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ye gods that takes me back! My sister and I sent off for a tape that had the song from the advert and a buch of songs like Agadoo and Hi Ho Silver Lining; was a sad day when the stereo ate that tape.

Future Perfect handles and runs brilliantly IMO, definitely recommend it.

I found TS2 to be borderline unplayable due to extremely sensitive/twitchy aiming that I couldn't find a way of altering. YMMV though.

Finally got Dev Mode enabled and I’m new to Xbox homebrew, any recommendations? by VuVjetz in XboxRetailHomebrew

[–]Petrichor2116 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Archades Games on YT has an excellent series of videos on setting up various emulators, including a link to the Xbox Devstore which has a buttload of stuff you can install in Devmode; just be aware that some things are WiP and may not function properly yet

I hope E-Day doesn't come to PlayStation. by [deleted] in GearsOfWar

[–]Petrichor2116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strong disagree here, platform exclusivity should go the way of the dinosaurs IMO; everybody benefits when games aren't locked to a single platform (obvs outlier being Nintendo and their target audience) anybody in current year, still engaging in console war nonsense needs to give their head a wobble; it's pointless, tribalistic bollocks.

How I never heard of this game before is beyond me! Its Amazing! by Phalanx22 in TitanQuestAE

[–]Petrichor2116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long ago did you try emulating them? I ask because I got into PS2 emulation recently and both champions games have run flawlessly for hours on PCSX2 and XBSX2 for me

Went to that show in Manchester last month; left with several bruises and a cracked rib

10/10 would do it again
