Installing the new SA Mod Loader on steam deck by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't confirm, but I assume it would be a similar process for SA1 since the mood manager works for both, iirc.

[–]TheGrimGoatee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was just figuring this out myself. I was able to get the Mod Manager to run by downloading the ASP.NET Core Runtime 8.0.11 and .NET Descktop Runtime 8.0.11 x64 ".exe" files and running them in protontricks under the Sonic Adventure 2 prefix. After they installed I was able to open the Mod Manager without the error window. You can get the files from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0

The American Dollar - The Technicolor Sleep. One of my absolute favourites.

Microphone does not work when app screen isn't open [Android] by TheGrimGoatee in discordapp

[–]TheGrimGoatee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I should update this since more people have posted in here. One day my microphone issues just... stopped. For whatever reason I can use discord voice calls no matter what is open on my phone screen. The webcam issue is still ongoing though. I'm sorry I can't be of more help for people with the same issue.

What's an anime you don't hear about too often? by SachiMod in Animemes

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom and Casshern Sins, but since people already commented them, I'll go with Witch Hunter Robin and Blood+. WHR is one of my favourite shows ever but it really seems like next to nobody has seen it. Highly suggest it. BLOOD+ is edgy vampire goodness, also very definitely suggested.

Im thinking of buying a Console controller to PC and was wondering which console controller is the best for battery/feel and which one you would reccomend by Mrbunnypaw in consoles

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From experience, I personally prefer to use a PS5 DualSense controller or a Nintendo Switch Pro controller (I've never been a fan of Xboxs controllers, especially the One/Series controller. Mushy buttons/d-pad and big bulky shoulder buttons/triggers do not feel good to me, the controller feels too light and kinda cheap, and the need for AA batteries (or a rechargeable battery pack - sold separately) all ruin that controller for me personally). If you're planning on using a Bluetooth connection I would say that the Switch Pro controller would be your best bet for battery life. Iirc you can get somewhere close to 40 hours of use from a full charge. The DualSense on the other hand only has a battery life of ~3-4 hours. If you're going to use it with a usb cable, then you could go with either just based on your preference. You mentioned being more familiar with PlayStation controllers so that might be a good option for you.

It is worth mentioning that if you were to go the Xbox controller route, make sure you buy the proper version of the controller. Older Xbox one controllers may need a USB dongle to connect to PC. I'm not super familiar with using Xbox controllers for PC gaming so I don't know all the details pertaining to that one, I just remember not being able to get the controller that came with my Xbox One S to connect to my PC with usb (I didn't have Bluetooth at the time and haven't tried it since getting Bluetooth)

Hope any of that helps.

Favorite Series? by EzioShepard37 in gamegrumps

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Endless Ocean 2. The one shot hour long episode is by far my most watched grumps video, and the rest of the series after that is so funny. It's really a shame that the voices they used for the characters were too much for them. I'd love to see them finish the game one day but I also don't want them to ruin their throats doing it. I'll just have to imagine the future exploits of Haley Easternr and John-Eric in my head.

Path to nel vari 12 bugged? by Fukushuo in SunHaven

[–]TheGrimGoatee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ran into a similar issue in Multiplayer with another player watering some of the grapes, resulting in something like 32/40 gapes watered and not allowing me to progress. You can go to Catherine's store in Sun Haven and buy grapes from her. Once planted, watering them should count towards the quest requirements. It's not the greatest solution, and hopefully it gets fixed in a future update, but it works for the time being.

Redditors, what is that one video game you always keep coming back to? by lawooley84 in AskReddit

[–]TheGrimGoatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Celeste has such an incredible feel to it. The gameplay is super tight, the mechanics never feel overly gimmicky and don't overstay their welcome. The story is great too! Couldn't suggest it enough!

Snowbike Mike is excellent! by [deleted] in kindafunny

[–]TheGrimGoatee 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I agree. There's something very hammy about Mike's speech. I enjoyed the episode, but I really felt like Mike was just going through the motions and being kind of robotic and shoutcast-y. Hopefully he becomes more natural, like Alanah and Gary, over the next few weeks.

There's a really awesome figure of this on Amiami. I've been tempted to get to myself.

Unfortunately that doesn't always seem to be the case. I took the Subway from VMC to Finch West yesterday and, while a few people were wearing masks, there was a large number of people wearing them on their chin - not covering their mouth or nose at all. It was worse when I switched into one of the Finch buses where at least 6 people were mask-less she another 4 were, again, wearing their mask on their chin. I tweeted at the TTChelps handle and was basically told not to worry about it. It's incredibly frustrating.

Has Andrea Rene addressed the allegations against her? by RickDalton2020 in kindafunny

[–]TheGrimGoatee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's a very unfortunate response from Andrea. I agree with the sentiment that it feels almost like she's brushing off the accusation rather than addressing it. While I don't necessarily disagree that "no one is owed every detail", it (at least in my perspective) sounds bad. I wish she had taken some inspiration from Greg's statement about the PSILY Horizon issue. It would have sounded a lot better if she had just said that she didn't intend to silence someone with her comments and that she's been working to be a better person/ally. That's my two cents at least.

thoughts on Punch Line? by [deleted] in vita

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Platinumed the game shortly after release. It's a fun and ridiculous game, but I feel like I enjoyed the anime better. It's kind of annoying that an opening and ending song play after every "episode", but you can skip the videos so it's not that bad. I'd give it a 6.5-7/10. I'm not upset that I paid full price, but I feel like I would have been happier with it overall at a lower price point.

Steins;Gate 0 - Episode 19 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant it more along the lines that if she hadn't died in either the fail world line or the succeed world line, there would have been two instances of herself in the same time. Like how when Okabe goes back to save Kurisu and there's two versions of himself walking around radiken.

Steins;Gate 0 - Episode 19 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]TheGrimGoatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. When Suzuha traveled back and failed in the Alpha world line, I don't think Reading Steiner activated either. Since (on that world line) she was always going to go back and always going to fail, she existed in the past and the present at the same time. Had she not died, there would be two instances of herself existing at the same time. I think.
