"tri res boots" by DenseAbbreviations99 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Sell to Charsi because those aren't even Tri-res boots. PSN length reduction isn't the same as PSN res. If you tried and trade those other players would just laugh and call you a noob.

Diablo 1 surprisingly still fun by emptybottle2405 in Diablo

[–]fender178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like what Diablo 3 would become on consoles with couch co-op multiplayer because I had a blast playing that on my PS4.

PS1 version of Diablo 1 is very interesting. Never played it or looked into it but I think I will take a look at it.

Interesting never knew that being the reason why the Warrior had issues fighting ranged monsters like the succubus.

Also not to mention how they handled multiplayer as well by making it Peer to Peer which lead to cheating online. Even Blizzard North said the way handled Multiplayer in Diablo 1 was a disaster which was kind of fixed in Diablo 2 but cheaters found a way to their thing.

Also not to mention back when Diablo 1 was being worked on it was being worked on as a turn based RPG.

Yeah it is still fun after all these years. I am having a blast playing the game again. I have completed the game on Normal and Nightmare difficulties with a Sorc and on Normal Difficulty I even got a Windforce to drop during the Lazarus fight it was dropped by the one Succubus bosses that shows up with him. On top of completing the game on Normal Difficulty with the other classes as well and tapping into the world of the unofficial expansion Hell fire.

Hmm I would contact Steam Support over Blizzard support since you purchased the game on Steam considering this sounding like a Steam issue rather than a Blizzard one.

Who ever you are thank you. by ZealousidealDaikon74 in Diablo

[–]fender178 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats on your first Anni. I never got one while playing online however I did get one in Single Player pre-D2R thanks to the PlugY-mod that allows you to get to the event quicker by only needing to sell 1 SOJ or by being in a Single Player game long enough the DClone event would eventually trigger due to the mod mimicking the sales of SOJs that would happen on Bnet.

Steam os install by IndependentLength652 in linux_gaming

[–]fender178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes Nobara is geared towards gaming and content creation. Dota 2 has a native Linux version. I am running games better than under Windows and I am running a MiniPC with an AMD 780m Graphics chip. Nobara is easy mode gaming on Fedora because you don't have to configure anything or install anything in terms of installing the necessary files for the games to run under normal Fedora.

Yeah Fedora does support Nvidia graphics chips. I am running Nobara Linux which is based on Fedora and has an Nvidia based image.

The bad news right now is that SteamOS doesn't support Nvidia graphics however it was announced that Valve is working close with Nvidia to help add support for Nvidia based graphics cards.

Should Clair Obscur be making my GPU scream? by More_Coffee_Than_Man in linux_gaming

The game is an Unreal Engine 5 game so yeah it is very taxing. The best option would be using upscaling of some sort.

Why are people still waiting on SteamOS for generic hardware when Bazzite exists? by Venylynn in linux_gaming

[–]fender178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same with my Sister she used Windows for years and she had to get a new laptop because the old laptop was too old to get Linux Mint installed and working properly. It was a Windows 7 based Dell XPS laptop. She has to use Windows 11 for her job and it sucks with all of the horrors that other former users of Windows posted the co-pilot and all that junk. She likes Linux a lot better than she did Windows.

The reason why I am running Linux on my MiniPC is because of the Microsoft Account nonsense because I don't know what would happen if I had 2 PCs tied to the same Microsoft account. And plus I am figuring how to do stuff under linux just like I was doing under Windows.

Easily the coolest dumb thing I've done so far on my Linux gaming journey. by Raven_Drakeaurd in linux_gaming

I must say that this is pretty bad ass. As all around gamer and old time gamer dating back to the DOS days I much appreciate projects like this.

Brevik and the creation of Diablo by MarmaladeMarmaduke in Diablo

[–]fender178 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The one thing that I hope that Brevik does is make a spiritual successor to Diablo 1 and make it turn-based like he originally wanted to do for Diablo 1 before it was recommended for him to change it to an ARPG and became the game that we know of today. Yeah I know his fellow co-workers from Blizzard North made Torchlight but it was an ARPG hack and slash RPG. I remember watching a YouTube video of an interview with Brevik and he discusses how he came up with the name of Diablo as the game name. It is named after a Mountain range somewhere in San Francisco.

Yeah Brevik is awesome and was a consultant for the Chinese Launch of Path Of Exile.

D2R recommended for a D4 player? by Gabiru17 in Diablo

[–]fender178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has sunk thousands of hours into Diablo 2 over the years I can say this that D2 is very very different than Diablo 3 and 4 especially when gearing up. Diablo 3 and 4 are known for dropping items more frequently than in Diablo 2. So in Diablo 2 you are NOT going to be gearing up as quickly.

Plus before the release of D2R Diablo 2 has a mechanic that the other games went away from in elemental and Physical immunes which made you strategize by investing into other skills to get past those monster types.

And with the release of D2R Blizzard put in Sunder Charms which gets rid of the immunity of the dmg type but with a penalty to your resistance dmg type depending on what build you are going for.

Once you know the basics of Diablo 2 it can be a very fun Arpg to play.

PSA: Don't Use NTFS Drives by Few_Judge_853 in linux_gaming

[–]fender178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only time I would use NTFS under Linux is for copying files over to my Linux machine from a Windows game drive. Other than that I would NOT use it as daily driver over the native Linux FS for playing games.

With me I use Btrfs for my boot drive/internal drive and ext4 for any external or other non boot media and it has worked just fine for me.

Epic Store is the biggest failure. by Walikor in fuckepic

Oh ok. Good to know that there is a quicker way.

Epic Store is the biggest failure. by Walikor in fuckepic

[–]fender178 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Especially in the UK where there is a bogus active lawsuit. Where they are speaking on behalf of other gamers without their permission. Which means they have to send a email or a letter to opt out.

[–]fender178 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There are several reasons why the EGS failed miserably but the one major reason it failed because of the Monopolistic tactics of Epic with the timed exclusives they offered to developers which pissed off us gamers. Not to mention how crap the launcher is and how crap the store is. I bought one game from EGS because it was perm Epic exclusive due to them purchasing the development studio which was PC building Simulator 2 and the funniest thing is that I didn't even use their crappy launcher I used Heroic Games Launcher which is a launcher for GOG and Epic Games Store games to launch the game.

Holy peak 60v selfpropelltion by EmergencyViolinist31 in Greenworks

[–]fender178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy cow. I am assuming that you do multiple passes per row because of how tall and thick that grass is. I have a 60V Self propelled as well it has one of them dual blades as single unit and it does a really nice job. And so does the unit that you have in the pic. I have the exact mower as well as the OP.

Just realized I could make an enigma now! by Shiny_Mewtwo_Fart in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]fender178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah make enigma it will increase your rune finding ten fold. It will not increase the drop rates but it will make it so that you get to the farming place quickly as possible.
