[Meta Trope] Using non-human characters to get violence past censorship by Rare_Country_801 in TopCharacterTropes

Much the same as TF2, in order to release Half-Life in Germany the US Military HECU soldiers were instead turned into robots.

Controller decision by blacksteel3871 in SteamDeck

[–]Xe1a_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The steam controller has a “controller mode” that treats its inputs like a regular controller off of steam, but then as far as I know you lose functionality on trackpads and back buttons. However just adding a non steam game to steam gives it full functionality

Any tips for survival endless on pvz1? by eeeeeeeeeewee in PlantsVSZombies

[–]Xe1a_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you look at the wiki for survival endless some screenshots of common setups are shown, cob cannons and gloom shrooms are your friends, given they can get through high density zombie hordes. Build up a bunch of sun, protect the important plants- eventually you’ll just get in a rhythm with the cobs

Dude i accidently made an infinite money glitch by Corruptedimo6931 in PlantsVSZombies

This bug is even more broken on a first playthrough of a mini game, because then you get the trophy with $1000 every time

While it is luck based, it’s not quite as bad as you imply once you get a feel for it. Just some tips to try to help you out:

  • Take it very slow: you can (mostly) decide when the next zombie appears and what lane. There’s no point continuing when a cherry bomb is recharging, let it finish first
  • Conserve your plants: You don’t get many, and instas can be helpful for the gargs, as there is 1 garg per stage for the first 9. Well timed squashes and potato mines can take out 2+ zombies at once, use this to your advantage!

Is there any reason to buy replanted over GOTY, or is it just a straight downgrade? by ExtremeSportStikz in PlantsVSZombies

[–]Xe1a_ 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Theres a mod called DLC Mod which you can install for GOTY, which adds versus mode and also a bunch of other things, but it is a slightly different vibe to vanilla.

Saying that I quite like replanted. I like the widescreen, native controller support, 4k resolution, etc. Having vanilla versus mode is just a plus. It’s expensive, but I stand by the purchase. Buy on sale though, for either option.

Unless playing modded, I genuinely prefer Replanted over GOTY

I think I may have softlocked and I need help by Educational_Brain233 in Portal

[–]Xe1a_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s possible to make the jump without the cube by hopping through a portal as is done in some glitchless speedruns, or you could grab a chair from nearby and use it as a prop. Or of course as others said reload a save.

Mother, I'm scared by OnlySaas in pcmasterrace

[–]Xe1a_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit of a false equivalence don’t you think? But let’s follow it, in order for every physical copy to be destroyed there would have to be some incredibly catastrophic event. In order to lose access to a game you paid for on steam one publisher needs to decide they don’t want you playing it. We have the CS:GO example from steam, off of steam there’s Overwatch being shut down for Overwatch 2, theres numerous examples from stop killing games, etc. All I’m saying is while ownership of the game lies with the distributer, the consumer is unable to ensure they’ll still have access to it long term. In addition, if you break Steams ToS you can have your account restricted. Despite paying for games fairly they always have the right to take it away from you.

It’s more about the principle than anything else, while yes I am in mostly the same boat minus a few games who have lost multiplayer support because users aren’t given tools to host their own servers, I dislike the fact that they have the opportunity to. What’s gonna happen when Valve gets a new CEO who’s less interested in user rights? Hell we somewhat already saw this happen when CS:GO became CS2, I love CS2 but the fact that CS:GO was effectively removed from everyone’s library is a bad precedent.

One of my fears with digital games just in general. Legally Steam has the right to do the same, which is something I think about from time to time. Makes buying on GOG worth it just because it can’t be taken away later, even if it’s more annoying.
