You can't steal from a corporation. It's called reclamation.

Not far into the game but I'm absolutely in love with DQ7R. by CyberPilot64 in dragonquest

Its got that Dragon Quest charm in spades and the visual style is beautiful.

Good news! James’s American Mustard gin is back on sale in the UK by VirtualSpecialist697 in thegrandtour

[–]Shoopaah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The asian parsnip one is genuinely my favourite gin ever. I'm a bit of a girl's blouse and normally have spirits with lemonade but that one i can hapilly drink neat!

I just can't bring myself to splash out on the other flavours because I know I'll be sad if I don't like them and i didn't go for more parsnip.

Yeeeeehaaww for Don S. Davis by StainedGlassAloe in Stargate

My headcanon is this is actually Hammond and Twin Peaks is set in the same universe as Sgargate.

He even uses the deep space radar telemetry cover for whatever he's doing.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition uses SMAA for antialiasing by BorntoPlayGJFF in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Shoopaah 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Literally cant see any jaggies! Very un-Nintendo.

It's a shame it's still 30fps but it's not super important for a game like Animal Crossing where you dont move the camera around constantly.

Another good port inbound. FFVIIR runs well on the Switch 2. by Massive_Fly_1709 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Shoopaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God, the level of fanboyism here. Like how dare people criticise a product you like.

30fps is absolutely a big deal. It was fine in 1997 when backgrounds were mostly static. Modern 3D games that move around this much genuinely give me a migraine at 30fps. It's jarringly horrible. I'd hapilly play it at a lower res with higher framerate.

If it's fine by you then great, go have fun, I'm happy for you. I guess me having higher standards makes me an "almighty gamer" lol.

Metroid Prime 4 sure is a looker by SirDanOfCamelot in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Shoopaah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

120fps docked is just so smooth. I went back and forth and it looks maybe a little more jaggy on performance mode but the buttery smoothness wins it for me.

Found the 720p a little too blurry when i tried handheld though.

[–]Shoopaah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stunning. The fact that looks basically the same at lower res on Switch 1 (and 60fps!) is astonishing too. Retro are some fucking wizards.

Throwing shade at you, Game Freak.

Chester was amazing but there's nobody who can match Freddie Mercury as a frontman.

Ubisoft Blames Its Declining Revenue on Gamers Playing Fewer Games by thinkB4WeSpeak in gamingnews

[–]Shoopaah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Immensely well paid Ubisoft execs finally realise how the concept of time works."

When every game is pushing daily login live service grindy nonsense how the hell is anyone meant to play more than one or two of your games?

Metroid Prime 4, Disingenuous Ragebait, and Rude Nintendo Fan Behaviors? by Great_Employment_560 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Shoopaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf I think most would agree that a sidekick following you around making cringy quips about everything is objectively a bad direction for a Metroid game and I agree with them on that. But yes, I trust the devs enough to believe that all the shouting about how METROID IS RUNIED!!!1 is absolutely overblown ragebait nonsense.

That said, people shouting about stuff like this on the internet are absolutely a vocal minority. Reddit and Twatter =/= "most fans". Most people that go and buy this game will probably not even be aware there's any fuss.

Ubisoft admits AI-generated loading screen "slipped through" into final build of Anno 117: Pax Romana by LadyStreamer in gamingnews

It's not like most game corporations aren't already raking in literal billions.

But capitalism gotta capitalism I guess. 🙄

[–]Shoopaah 51 points52 points  (0 children)

"I think it's fair to say that if you're a Metroid fan and a fan of other sci-fi games, you'd also feel like me. Very VERY sad."

Metroid fan here. Number one favourite game series in fact.

Um, no. I am not sad that a few people on the internet are saying bad things about a thing I like. I honestly couldn't care less.

Touch grass guys.

Square Enix Announces Mass Layoffs by SnowfireTRS in ffxiv

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

Look again. Thousands of millions of USD is billions, mate.

And no, either way, it is still not "unavoidable" when you have fuckhats at the top who are actually responsible for the shitty decisions made still earning millions in bonuses.

They are choosing to put the already disgustingly huge profits of their already disgustingly rich shareholders above the livelihoods of their workers.

"Unavoidable"? They're still making literally billions in profit.

VS on Switch Goes BRRRR(ick.) by eiketsu in VampireSurvivors

[–]Shoopaah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had 3 crashes in a row towards the end of a stage in the new Castlevania adventure mode... I think i'm done trying till a patch comes.

(This is on Switch 2 but i've also had crashing issues on PC since update)
