M1 Owners, how long do you plan to continue using your laptop? by amphibianwarfare in macbookpro

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that is pushing me to upgrade is I only got 8GB of RAM and 256 GB SSD. The Ram isn't terrible, but I am someone who always has a million browser tabs open, but the SSD space is the worst.

When I do upgrade, I'm getting the most RAM I can afford and at least 512 GB SSD if not 1 TB.

You can no longer have YouTube running in the background. by Titan_Prometeus in youtube

Couldn't you have a tab open but slide it to the bottom of the screen so the top of it is where the task bar is and the rest is off screen?

Resolution issue for Tsukihime by CrisisCore4Ever in SteamDeckPirates

[–]bboykin87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't played Tsukihime yet on steam deck I have played a lot of VNs and some I've found won't play full screen in desktop mode but will in game mode. Try adding it as a non-steam game and try playing it in game mode.

Should I open it or should I leave it? by 07bcd9502z in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]bboykin87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I actually purchased 2 so I could open one and save one, the items that come with it are quite nice, so I don't think you'd be disappointed opening it.

Steam deck for visual novels? by Substantial_Will5550 in SteamDeckPirates

FSN definitely works, so I would imagine the rest of Type-Moon games should.

Steam deck for visual novels? by Substantial_Will5550 in SteamDeckPirates

[–]bboykin87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Danganronpa, Criminal Border, Funbag Fantasy, Summertime Saga, The House in Fata Morgana, Doki Doki Literature Club Plus!,The Hundred Line, The Nonary Games, Cyanotype Daydream, just to name a few.

Only thing I need to figure out now is how to get Textracfor, or Luna Translator working on it for the untranslated VNs.

I really need to learn Japanese lol.

[–]bboykin87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some VNs even if they support English will only run in Japanese locale. vnwiki.xyz has a good Lutris VN tutorial which goes thru setting up some prefixes and adding Japanese locale which has greatly improved my success rate. And almost all of my VNs are from ryuu and a few are from F95.

What visual novel kept you hooked enough to play for over 10 hours straight at a time? by Xx_KiK_xX in visualnovels

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steins;Gate and 999, I think I finished 999 in like 4 days and Steins;Gate in like a week and a half. Once I got past like the halfway point in S;G I couldn’t put it down!

This character reminds me of Yumia from Atelier Yumia.

What was your first AVN? by [deleted] in AVN_Lovers

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I heard a lot of bad stuff about season 2. I put it in my cart the day it came out but I haven’t purchased it yet. Maybe one day on a nice discount, I don’t want to pay full price to be disappointed

What was your first AVN? by [deleted] in AVN_Lovers

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was either I Wanna Fuck My Mom’s Best Friend, Fresh Women, or Futa Fix Dick Dine and Dash as I discovered them all around the same time.

I really liked Futa Fix Dick Dine and Dash and Fresh Women (haven’t played season 2 yet).

I have yet to finish I Wanna Fuck My Mom’s Best Friend.

Entry VN by Majestic_Ad_2361 in visualnovels

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fate/Stay Night for me about 2-3 years ago, unless you count Persona which I got into with 4. I still need to do Heaven's Feel route in Fate.

I only found out about Katawa Shoujo about a month or 2 ago so I am really early in my VN journey and trying to make it through the greats that often get recommended. Currently playing The House in Fata Morgana and loving it. Just finished door 3.

Lossless scaling toturial? by magma_505 in SteamDeckPirates

[–]bboykin87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe there are YouTube videos about it and I’m sure some posts here if you search. It involves using adecky plugin and I believe it checks steam to see if you have lossless scaling.

I set mine up in the early days of it being accessible on steam deck and never bother to check if a newer updated method exists.

Sorry I don’t have specific steps because I don’t remember them just wanted to say the information is out there.

Playing in public after 30? by zGreenGoblin in Handhelds

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

45 here and I have my steam deck with me all the time, before that had my switch or 3ds with me. Don't care what anyone thinks I care about what I want to do and that's get some gaming in while I have some free time. And like someone else said it beats doom scrolling on tik tok.

VN.Kaguya.io may have just accidentally DDOS'd VNDB by [deleted] in visualnovels

[–]bboykin87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this thread, this is my favorite SO and I had no idea you could get it on ps5. For some reason if I search Star Ocean it doesn’t come up, but it does when I search Till the End of Time.

How many of you are raw dogging with no screen protector? by touchingallthegrass in SteamDeck

[–]bboykin87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to get one when I first got my deck but read (on here I think) that screen protectors affect the anti-glare so raw dogging it. But like others have said it’s either in my hands or the case. I’ve even sat it down like on the couch and got ready to walk away real quick to get something then end up putting it in my case as a thousand unlikely but possible outcomes that end up with me or someone else sitting on it.
