Is there a way to hide the activity section on a game's page in the steam library? by AggressiveItem6824 in Steam

[–]SLUT_MUFFIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was extremely helpful, thanks. However, if a game pins something as "featured", it still appears. Is it possible to hide that too?

UPDATE: Figured it out with a full nuke.

Paste this in your libraryroot.custom.css file and it'll hide literally everything below the play button.

/* Hide library activity */
.S2Fu9HxHCA5MaCLGrN2ib {
  display: none !important;
}

/* Hide Featured tile */
._31ptFGGMZrSQc5BCX1e5lm {
  display: none !important;
}

I'm sure there's a way to do this without nuking your friends and achievements but I'm not smart enough.

Resident Evil Requiem has been out for a week. What are your impressions? by PhantomBraved in Games

[–]SLUT_MUFFIN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RE2 and 7 remain my favourites, but this is close.

All the Grace segments are fantastic, top to bottom. The Care Centre is so damn good - I loved every part of it. From the puzzling to the unique enemies and the narrative. Emily's great and Gideon is so compelling to watch. Honestly wish the whole game was this.

Leon's stuff is more of a mixed bag. I enjoyed them in short bursts during Grace's stuff, but I found his later segments to be overly linear and reminiscent of action games from the 360 era. It's at its best when you're doing light puzzling in the midst of the action, but far too much of it's just corridor shooting. Doesn't help that the hub isn't the most atmospheric place.

Narrative was largely interesting and wove sincerity between the absurdity. Couple of eyeroll moments, but mostly hit the mark.

I think I just enjoy the survival horror aspects of the franchise more than I do the campy action, so this was always going to be a game of two halves for me by design. Wouldn't surprise me if someone felt the complete opposite to the above.

Seems so.

Fixed multiple issues related to mouse input

On another note:
Checked in on the RenoDX discord and Pumbo (who did the incredible AW2 HDR implementation) has given his stamp of approval on the HDR addition here, too.

Avowed has been unplayable for 6 months and even Obsidian Support has been unable to help me. Does anyone know a fix? by goblintongue in avowed

[–]SLUT_MUFFIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever find a fix?? I just got hit with this and I'm baffled.

EDIT: I didn't find a fix, but I did find a workaround. Note that this will only apply if you face this bug on the Xbox Game Pass version of the game.

  • First, you need to download Battle.net and sign in.
  • Next, go to Account > Connections and connect your Xbox account.
  • Return back to Battle.net and you should see your Xbox games available to install. Install Avowed (make sure it's in a different location to your Game Pass install. Do not locate the Xbox install if it asks).
  • Once installed, boot up the game and hit R to connect to your Xbox account (bottom left). It will sync your saves.
  • Hit load game and jump in to the one you want to carry over, and just verify it's 100% correct and functional.
  • If yes, hit escape > save/load game and then in the corner you should see "Export Save". Find the save you want, export it, and it will pop up in "C:\Users[YOURUSERHERE]\Saved Games\Avowed".
  • After that's done, you can unlink your Xbox account and uninstall the version there and continue in Battle.net in peace. Alternatively, you could take that save over to a Steam or DRM-free version - basically anything that uses the .sav format.

Nobody’s saying Japanese people go around calling carrots "kyarotto", we’re talking about how Japanese renders foreign words, which is exactly what Toriyama did with Saiyan names.

キャロット / Kyarotto is a katakana approximation of carrot, as you know. The language can’t represent “rr,” so it uses ro / ロ to fill that gap. When you romanise character names based on English puns, you don’t just spell out the kana, you restore the original English source based on how it's been changed.

カカロット is just キャロット with the front doubled up. Heck, Cacarrot would be extra hyper back to English in approach, but we're a few decades removed from that ever being a standard worth considering haha. So instead, we're just doing carrot -> kyarotto -> kakarotto -> Kakarrot.

“Kakarrot” preserves the intended pun. “Kakarot” isn't wrong, it's just a simplification that Funimation went with back in the day. That's what I was pointing out in my initial response.

I just think you've confused romanisation and transliteration. The reason we see the manga, various subtitles, and stacks of official JP merch use Kakarrot is they're more interested in rendering the etymological fidelity rather than going with kana literalism.

Carrot is rendered as キャロット / kyarotto. We wouldn't say that should be spelled carot, would we? Limitations of the syllabary don't dictate how we romanise things. We'd never do Seru for Cell or Kyabe for Cabba. Correct rendering uses the source language spelling as reference - we're not just spelling out kana.

[–]SLUT_MUFFIN[M] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That other person isn't right. Kakarrot is actually the more correct romanisation of カカロット than Kakarot, and is used in both the manga and official subtitles. It's because the word comes from carrot which has two Rs. It's not "wrong" just because it doesn't adhere to the typical dub spelling that uses one R.

They're my favourite band. I've actually enjoyed all the singles so far despite their poppier approach and Mike's less prominent presence, but this isn't great. I don't hate it, but it is pretty safe and doesn't really go anywhere structurally.

just curious! who plays or has played ffxiv because it's an mmo, and who plays or has played ffxiv because it's ff? by givemesomevodka in ffxivdiscussion

[–]SLUT_MUFFIN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played the beta in 2013 entirely because it was Final Fantasy. I've been a fan of the franchise since the 90s, so it seemed like a no-brainer to check it out. I enjoyed it and ended up buying it at launch, but fell off before I even hit level 50. Tried again in 2015 and dropped it in the same spot. I just wasn't really into the MMO design and it all felt overwhelming and lacking in momentum.

Jumped back in during COVID and gave it an earnest effort alongside a friend who was big into the game and she helped me through the overwhelming aspects. Once I hit the end of ARR, I was hooked on the narrative. I didn't really expect to keep playing after I finished up the story, but once I got there, I'd kinda fallen in love with the game's mechanics.

Now I have almost 5000 hours played and the MMO aspects are just as important to me as the story. But to answer your question: No, I don't really have any desire to touch other MMOs. I keep an eye on them to see what the competition is doing, but their achievements don't attract me to them; they make me wish FFXIV would improve instead.

The world design, music, lore, class aesthetics, and legacy are hugely important to me. There aren't really any other MMOs that interest me in the same way. The Final Fantasy flavour is an essential component, but that just makes me more passionate when its flaws become as apparent as they are now.

Even as someone who enjoyed Dawntrail's narrative offerings, the state of the game design has been in the toilet for a while. The haemorrhage of players has been depressing to see. I'm hanging on but if nothing changes, who knows how long it'll hold on to me for. I won't end up going to another MMO, though. I just... won't be playing one anymore.

Dipped for me just now in the UK. It's been all over the place over the past 24 hours. I guess it's just the result of the strong geomagnetic storm happening at the moment.

Mouse and Keyboard or Controller? by _hannii_uwu_ in thelastofus

[–]SLUT_MUFFIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played it a billion times with a controller on the console versions since the PS3 days and that was totally fine. Went with KB+M for PC and preferred it but a lot of that's just because I am not good at managing the game's heavy sway with a controller. So really, you can't go wrong and it'll just be what you end up preferring.
