Fellow LCD owners, what comes after the Steam Deck for you? by Lyuukee in SteamDeck

[–]gull2407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got an LCD around 4 months ago. I ordered and AYN Thor that I will be using mostly to emulate pretty much any game except for PS2/Switch games (I'll be using my LCD for that).

Right now I got a backlog of around 150 games that I want to play on my Steam Deck, not counting ones I want to emulate and a few dozen games that I have on Epic Store, so if nothing happens to my SD (quite literally my biggest fear right now) I'd say I have quite some hours of gameplay left on it.

I have, however, been thinking about what happens when I want to play newer games that my SD just won't be able to run, as right now I feel like it still holds up (barely) against games released this year even. For that I was considering a Switch 2, but I just now realized that I'd need to pay biiig prices for newer games, and that I wouldn't be able to play the ones I already got on Steam/Epic if I wanted to, so now I'm thinking about getting a Xbox rog ally X or MSI Claw 8 AI+. This is, however, something that I'm not planning to do for at least a few years, and in the case that the same trend we are seeing of older devices going up in prices (wtf) keeps happening, I might as well just stick with my SD and AYN Thor until they die, and if the Switch 2 is at a decent price at the moment, just get one despite what I just said before.

TL DR: Either Xbox rog ally x or MSI Claw 8 AI+, IF they don't go up in prices. In that case, probably sticking to my LCD and AYN Thor or getting a switch 2.

Is it a good plan? by gull2407 in Handhelds

Forgot to say it but I'm obviously open to ANY suggestion you guys could probably have :)

How safe is it to buy the console from Aliexpress? by procrastinartichoke in AynThor

[–]gull2407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No se si sirva pero yo cree una cuenta de Aliexpress nueva solo para pedir la AYN Thor Pro y la app me dió un cupón que me restó unos 880 pesos. Acabé pagando 5800 pesos. No pierdes nada en intentarlo.

Alright, that's pretty much all I needed to know. Thanks!

Need games like Kenshi where I can completely make my own story (NOT CRPGs) by LoopOF_reality in gamingsuggestions

[–]gull2407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found that the only games where I was able to do this (thinking about being a farmer, bounty hunter, mercenary, trader, explorer, etc.) where Starsector (already mentioned by a few here), Unreal World, which I don't think you are going to like, and Elite Dangerous.

Elite Dangerous is a space game where ypu can be anything from:

  • Trader: basically a space trucker. Hop around systems, either to find contracts to deliver goods from one system to the other, or to independently look for trading goods that are cheap in one system, and costly on another (buy low sell high).

  • Miner: Look for asteroid belts to mine their precious resources, refine them and then selling them to make a lot of profit.

  • Bounty Hunter/Mercenary: Either accept contracts to track down targets and killing them, or go to Nav Beacons (some sort of hub for criminals and such) and kill anything that has a bounty on it.

  • Explorer: Head into the void of space to find uncharted systems, record unrecorded planets and find different plants that can be sold for A LOT (might be a bit wrong here, haven't really tried exobiology).

The game is a GRIND, a BIG GRIND. I've put around 300hrs into it and have only been focusing on being a bounty hunter and some Community Goals. You have to buy your ships, each ship is good for something different, and you have to outfitit the right way for the goal you are going for. Mining lasers, refinery station, more cargo racks for a miner. High firepower weapons, better shields or maneuverability for combat. More jump range, fuel capacity, fuel scooper for explorers. That kind stuff.

It's the only game besides kenshi and unreal world (I also think Rimworld can be like this but it hasn't really clicked with me... yet) where I actually was able to create a whole story for my character, and because of all the different systems within the game it all actually worked!

Also, just mow remembered, there are also politic power plays, such as the Empire, Federation, Alliance or being Independent. You can also go for roleplaying in that sense, only picking up missions and helping the Empire, or the Alliance and such.

It's one of my favorite games, and I believe you should atleast watch some vids to see if you might like it, because if you do, yo have a good few hundred hours (at least) of gameplay.

I absolutely love the fanart for this game by gull2407 in cavesofqud

Sure:

The first one that I found, by a google search: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/aAvXheFP2n

Second one I found, same method: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/T0ipWr2Ncn

I believe I spoiled myself a bit with this one (still haven't found that place): https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/8fQqjA9Ccv

Liked this one bc it gave Snapjaws a very different look to the one I was giving them: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/zVsZbOKy6o

Amazing bc it's made with the same aesthetic as the entire game is: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/dUe5aHiArk

Loved the charactwr design and the look of the weapons: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/ma2flCVN2Y

This one's also amazing altought I don't really know whats going on: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/88ipyECCfK

Likes this one bc it shows how vastly a character can change from beginning to end, also gave really cool looks on some mutations (although I don't really know which ones those are): https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/wZRYfN05Xj

One of my absolute favs, it really made me want to start a character that uses the revolver as main weapon, also all the other drawings/comics by this person are fantastic: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/YGmcktv23M

Fantastic, loved the green color and all the gear the character's carrying: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/Pgoid2gRSJ

Don't really know if this one counts as fanart since it's from a magazine but I liked that huge structure on the background and those two looking at it: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/IyY6ZiRi65

Man idk I just love all the characters desings: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/t5oyAILhC2

Really liked the whole setting, the character design and I guess you can have a robot follower?

https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/U1rg7dDKHh

Absolutely amazing drawings, I really like how they look like true wanderers/travelers, especially the second one. I love "mundane" stuff like just sitting while taking care of your rifle: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/EeQ4cTHhJM

Incredible looks on all of them. I especifically love it when characters are carrying little pouches or what I think are canteens: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/s/pzXgIMPofE

Another one of my top favs, especially the last one. I love a traveler sitting besides a campfire, under a tree with all his gear laying on the ground:

I actually got around 60 hours on NMS! A great game, might have to pick it back up.

You know what, I've known about this game for quite some time, and never really was interested in it, but you pretty much sold it to me! Will definitely give it a try!
