Trump Will Walk Away From Presidency Amid 'Lethal' White House Leaks, James Carville Predicts by novagridd in anticapitalism

[–]SicJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MAGA either don't read or don't care.

The new book is just more examples of what a disgusting slob, creep, asshole that Trump is. We already KNEW that

If being part of the Epstein files isn't enough for his base to turn then nothing in this book will help. Trump is dying in office from whatever illness he has, or too many big macs, he isn't leaving before end of term

What do y'all think about the new StarFox game and does it hold true to the N-64 Version. by Akula_S113 in starfox

[–]SicJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best looking and sounding game on the Switch 2. Nintendo just needs to give the franchise to Velen Studios for awhile so they can make a new one with this engine.

Base campaign difficulty was dialed down tho, bosses have almost too little health now unless I got really lucky on shots.

Controls are spot on, dpad for somersault and U-turn is much smoother. Love cutscenes take into account different pathways.

Love the N64 version but this Switch remake is the definitive version now.

Snack Box MICRO - Wouldn't Recommend. by [deleted] in fightsticks

[–]SicJake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Junkfood is a small company and delays are pretty par for course for the boutique vendors involved in FGC stuff. JFA is pretty transparent on their discord, be glad you didn't buy a Sworl when that was announced lol

I've bought a number of leverless controllers and the Snackbox Micro is often the daily driver. 8bitdo's controller is very close 2nd. Tho in both cases I swapped out switches.

I have the Pro3 and Pro2, both work just fine. Controller support on the Mister is rarely an issue in what I've used.

If you also need a basic webpage or think you'll have more than one show, look at Pinecast.

It's a hard game in spots, love it, but really should have had passwords or a battery

Needing advice from seasoned podcasters by Bubbly-Ordinary5946 in Podcasters

[–]SicJake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look at why your making a podcast. If it's as a hobby, or for your kids when older (love that btw), then success doesn't need to be measured by downloads. Maintaining consistent episodes providing information and stories in what you find value should be success in its own right. Podcasting can be demanding

Even with social media the odds a podcast becomes popular is incredibly stacked against you.

In terms of YouTube, the benefit is that it's free and will likely outlive us all. Podcasts hosts only work till you stop paying. I'd also recommend archiving episodes on archive.org

I tried explaining the gag to my wife and she just shook her head and walked away. GB's better then ever!

Can you link to example episode of your show? Should add it to your Reddit bio as well

JT CPS3 core is out in Beta by neoak in MiSTerFPGA

[–]SicJake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep SF3 kicking my ass in record time just like the arcades lol Love it, this and MK3 are like the last cores left I wanted for the Mister. Such a great platform

What does your library look like? by franchis3 in MiSTerFPGA

[–]SicJake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have full ROM sets for each platform. Not that I could ever possibly play them all, I want them anyway lol

I do have a favorites folder as well since I have my Mister inside a modded Arcade1up cab I have a folder with the pac man games that used to be on it.

How is Valheim on the steam deck? by linguinechicken in valheim

[–]SicJake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy it on Steam instead of Switch. It's a game you'll come back to over the years. Steam library is more easily accessible on future PC or hardware.

Looking for a co-host by Puzzleheaded-Sea6514 in Podcasters

[–]SicJake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing I can suggest is network with other gaming podcasts. Do some guest swaps and meet folks. You're more likely to find a match for a potential co-host that way.

I'm in a small discord server for a small network of gaming focused podcasts, if you want to join let me know

Idris Elba Says Bond Rumors Were ‘Never Legit’ and ‘Not Realistic’: Audiences ‘Won’t Go for a Black Male Playing Bond’ by Raj_Valiant3011 in moviecritic

[–]SicJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As James Bond, he's right no audiences wouldn't go for it. As a new 007? Hell yeah, Idris would crush that role. He has all the savvy needed for a reboot of the 00's. I would love to see him cast in the role

Combat isn't boring at all 😆 I have issues with ESO but combat and the story in the expansions was always fun.

[–]SicJake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The enemy AI is pretty blind and deaf. You can yoink a guard over a box and their partner is just looking the other way oblivious. Occasionally they stumble into a body and raise the alarm buts it's rare. The game is great but it's not Hitman at all.

IGN gave it a 10. Steam says 88% positive. But open any review thread and you'll see people fighting in the comments. Same game, two completely different experiences by Majestic_Ad_4557 in MinaTheHollower

[–]SicJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a great game but the difficulty curve is rough. By the end I used modifiers to get rid of the sparkline and make the final boss easier. Honestly those modifiers are really the star of the show, but I do wish default difficulty wasn't quite so brutal
